The origin of the university can be traced back to the Forest Departments of Jinling University and Central University. In 1952,
Nanjing Forestry College was established after the merger of the Forest Departments from
Wuhan University,
Nanchang University, and Hubei Agricultural College. It was renamed
Nanjing Technological College of Forest Products in 1972. It adopted the current name in 1985. == External links ==
