School of Earth Science and Geological Engineering, Sun Yat sen University
In terms of international cooperation and exchange, the College has established extensive cooperation and exchange relations with dozens of universities and research institutions at home and abroad.It has successfully hosted a series of international and domestic academic conferences.Famous overseas scholars are invited to give lectures in the school, and teachers are selected to attend international academic conferences or carry out cooperative research abroad.In order to broaden students' horizons and carry out international teaching exchanges, such as organizing students to participate in the joint practice of Lake Baikal GeoscienceCalifornia Institute of TechnologyJoint field teaching practice in Tianshan.
Department of Earth Sciences, Sun Yat sen University(formerly Department of Mineral Geology) was founded in 1924.She is shouldering the important task of supporting Sun Yat sen's dream of building an economic power in science and technology, the Strategy of Governance, which has developed rapidly and is famous at home and abroad.In 1926, Professor Huang Shuxun, the first dean of the department, wrote "Chinese Minerals", which was published by the Commercial Press. It is one of the earliest works on mineralogy, petrology and mineral deposits in China.In the same year, Zhu Jiahua (later the minister of the Ministry of Education, the first president of the Central Academy of Sciences, and the vice president of the Central Academy of Administration) returned from Germany to join Sun Yat sen University after receiving a doctor's degree. Later, he served as the dean of the department. Together with Xie Jiarong, a deposit scientist, he planned to establish a geological survey institute in Guangdong and Guangxi by the National Revolutionary Government.The Institute, affiliated to the Department of Geology of Sun Yat sen University, pioneered the Chinese geological survey in Guangdong and Guangxi. The first edition of the geological map and mineral map of Guangdong and Guangxi was one of the four most influential geological survey institutes in China at that time.Successively elected as the Central Research Institute orAcademician of CASThere are eight teachers and students in Liangguang Institute and Department of Geology: Zhu Jiahua, Xie Jiarong, Sun Yunzhu, Le Sengui, Si Xingjian, Feng Jinglan, Yang Zunyi and Chen Guoda.During the major adjustment of domestic colleges and universities in 1952, the restructuring system of the geological discipline of Sun Yat sen University was moved to Changsha to establish the Central South University of Mining and Metallurgy (the predecessor of today's Central South University), and later it was separated from the Changsha Institute of Geotectonics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (now incorporated intoGuangzhou Institute of Geochemistry, Chinese Academy of Sciences）So as to enter the stage of in vitro development.
In 1972, Sun Yat sen University resumed its major of geology.The favorable geographical conditions, profound development details and the joint efforts of teachers and students have made the geoscience discipline strong again rapidly and become an important base for cultivating senior geoscience professionals with a global perspective.The Department of Earth Sciences has established a complete "Bachelor Master Doctor" talent training system.Geology (science)Geo information science and technologyThree undergraduate majors (science/engineering) and geological engineering (engineering), the first level discipline doctoral program of geology, covering the second level disciplines such as mineralogy, petrology, mineral deposit science, structural geology, Quaternary geology and geochemistry, and the right to award the master of engineering in the field of geology.It has the key discipline of mineralogy, petrology and mineral deposit science in Guangdong Province.Since the reform and opening up, the Department of Earth Sciences has attached great importance to the balanced development of student training, discipline construction and social services.Since the early 1990s, in order to adapt to environmental problems and the rise of computer technology, our department has integrated modern elements on the basis of traditional geosciences and developed environmental geology and geo information technology respectively.
The Department of Earth Science of Sun Yat sen University is an important research base of earth science in ChinaKey Laboratory of Geological Process and Mineral Resources Exploration in Guangdong Province, undertook a series of Ministry of Land and Resources/China Geological SurveyScientific research and industrial technology consulting tasks, such as special geological survey, national major basic research (973 project), 863 project, National Natural Science Foundation of China (including key funds), National University Doctoral Program Fund, Guangdong Provincial Science and Technology Research, and resource and environmental geological survey entrusted by enterprises.
Guangzhou is one of the most livable and entrepreneurial cities in China, as well as one of the regions with the most concentrated geoscience units and the most complete disciplines in China and even the world.In particular, Sun Yat sen University has always been famous for its complete range of disciplines. Geography, environment, urban planning, ecology, economics, mathematics, mechanics and other disciplines are distributed on the same campus.For a long time, the Department of Earth Sciences of Sun Yat sen University has made use of its own convenient conditions to cooperate with the Guangzhou Institute of Geochemistry, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Nanhai Ocean Research Institute, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Guangdong Provincial Geological Survey Bureau, Guangzhou Marine Survey Bureau of the Ministry of Land and Resources, Guangdong Provincial Geological Survey Institute, Guangdong Provincial Geological Environment Observation StationGuangzhou Institute of Geography and other geological research institutions in Guangzhou maintain close contact and cooperation, and carry out interdisciplinary research with many disciplines in the university side by side.
The whole department has more than 700 students of the national enrollment plan.Among them, there are more than 400 undergraduates（Geoinformation Science and TechnologyGeology), nearly 200 doctoral and master's students.In addition, there are also a number of on-the-job postgraduate students in the field of geological engineering.
