Most Similar Schools Locally

  • Another national school that puts agriculture, food science and bioinformatics at the centre is Nanjing Forestry University, and it runs the same bachelor's, master's and doctoral programmes, and is slightly smaller, at about 22,000 students against roughly 28,000 here.
  • Think of Southwest Forestry University when agriculture, food science and bioinformatics is the priority: it teaches at the same levels, namely bachelor's, master's and doctoral, and is smaller, enrolling about 17,000 students against roughly 28,000 here.
  • Beijing Forestry University shares the core fields of this institution, namely agriculture, food science and bioinformatics; it is smaller, enrolling about 18,000 students against roughly 28,000 here, and is also a public institution.
  • Where this university leans on transportations, geotechnics and microbiology and genetics, Qingdao Technological University does the same, and it is also a public institution, and runs the same bachelor's, master's and doctoral programmes.
  • Northeast Forestry University is the closest domestic counterpart for agriculture, food science and bioinformatics; it is also a public institution, and teaches at the same levels, namely bachelor's, master's and doctoral.

Most Similar Schools Abroad

  • Students considering a move abroad can look at University of Agriculture in Krakow in Poland, where agriculture, food science and transportations also form the core, and it teaches at the same levels, namely bachelor's, master's and doctoral, and covers aerospace and quality as well.
  • Students considering a move abroad can look at Universität Kassel in Germany, where agriculture, food science and transportations also form the core, and it is also a public institution, and teaches at the same levels, namely bachelor's, master's and doctoral.
  • Beyond national borders, Poznań University of Life Sciences stands out as a comparable school for agriculture, food science and transportations; it covers aerospace and quality as well, and is far smaller, with about 8,000 students against roughly 28,000 here.
  • For a study option in Germany with a comparable spread of agriculture, food science and transportations, Justus-Liebig-Universität Gießen is the reference point: it teaches at the same levels, namely bachelor's, master's and doctoral, and covers astroscience and aerospace as well.
  • On content, Università degli Studi di Parma in Italy and this institution are close, as both teach agriculture, food science and bioinformatics; it covers nanotechnologies and automation as well, and has almost the same size, at about 27,000 students.

*our own picks (our criteria: a mix between domains, diploma delivered, reputation and size), but obviously too many criteria for an apple-to-apple ranking.

*: without any judgment of the quality, readers are strongly encouraged to check the official status of the exact diploma envisioned as many universities have a mix of recognized diplomas, not recognized, “co-delivered,” “equivalent to”,  “some pathways” (…), can change over time, and can be named differently from one country to another.

 

**: international reputation: is based on some criteria that do not mean much in some domains or specialties (number of researchers, of scientific publications, on budget ….). Our approximate 1-4 scale: 

  1. known locally
  2. known locally and internationally
  3. is listed in some of the world university’s classifications
  4. is listed among the 20 firsts in some of world university’s classifications

***: estimated numbers, based on online sources and/or feedbacks. The numbers can vary greatly depending on school organisation (ex.: school is part of a group, it employs internal staff or external consultants or has public staff without employing them …).
