Will Northwest Agriculture and Forestry Kick out 985

Northwest A&F University is still a "985" engineering university. There is no such thing as being cancelled from 985, and it will not be kicked out of 985.

then why is there a saying that 985 was cancelled? The main reasons are as follows.

1. The geographical position is not dominant. Northwest A&F University is located in Yangling, Shaanxi Province, which is about 8 kilometers away from Xi 'an and Baoji, and about 1 kilometers away from Xianyang International Airport, which is far away from the urban area. Compared with the eastern coastal areas, the economy in the northwest is relatively backward, so the development of the school is limited to some extent, which makes many candidates and parents not choose to apply for the exam.

2. Western Agriculture is a national key university with major in agriculture, forestry and fisheries. However, the agriculture, forestry and fisheries is not a hot professional industry at present. In recent years, the hot majors are computer, finance, accounting, etc. Therefore, many candidates will think that the employment prospects of Western Agriculture are not good, resulting in a gradual decrease in the number of applicants and a gradual decline in popularity.

Northwest A&F University is located at No.22, Xinong Road, Yangling National Agricultural High-tech Industrial Demonstration Zone, Shaanxi Province. It is the key construction university of the National 985 Project and the 211 Project, and it is the first batch of national world-class universities and first-class discipline construction universities.

The school was formerly the National Northwest Agricultural and Forestry College, which was founded in 1934.

in September, 1999, with the approval of the State Council, seven scientific and educational institutions, including the former Northwest Agricultural University, Northwest Forestry College, Water Conservancy Institute of Ministry of Water Resources of China Academy of Sciences, Northwest Water Conservancy Research Institute of Ministry of Water Resources, Shaanxi Academy of Agricultural Sciences, Shaanxi Academy of Forestry and Northwest Botany Institute of China Academy of Sciences of Shaanxi Province, were merged to form Northwest A&F University.

since the school was founded more than 8 years ago, generations of teachers and students have been adhering to the school philosophy of "learning from the country, understanding people's livelihood, and valuing science" and the school motto of "being honest and brave", caring for the country, loving the people, carrying on the ambition of Hou Ji, an ancient agricultural god, carrying out the contemporary "teaching the people and cultivating crops" and adhering to the road of running a school closely integrated with Industry-University-Research, which has made outstanding contributions to promoting China's agricultural modernization and the development of agricultural science and education.
