Graduates majoring in forest engineering can be senior engineers and technicians engaged in the investigation, design, construction and management of forest engineering, roads and bridges, and the development and management of international forest engineering projects in enterprises, institutions and research institutes in forestry, transportation and machinery departments.
The major of forest engineering is to learn mechanical knowledge. In China, the degree of mechanization is not high, and there is a great demand for mechanical equipment in all walks of life. Therefore, the machinery manufacturing industry is a very important industry, and the demand for professionals in this industry is also great. On the other hand, everything in life, big or small, is inseparable from machinery. It can be said that our life would be incredible without machinery manufacturing to provide various products.
Forest harvesting, timber transportation, forest bridge design and other industries engaged by graduates majoring in forest engineering are leading projects in the forestry industry. After the founding of People's Republic of China (PRC), they attached importance to the development of forestry while developing it. In the early days of the People's Republic of China, they put forward the policy of universal forest protection, attaching importance to afforestation and rational logging and utilization. In the late 1960s, they emphasized the synchronous development of management, the combination of harvesting and planting, and sustainable utilization. In view of the increasing demand for wood and other forest products in the development of national economy, the forest industry management organization was established, which made China's forest industry enter the stage of mechanized operation. Since 1980s, forestry in China has entered a period of revitalization. From 1949 to 1987, it provided the country with 153 billion cubic meters of wood. The timber output of 1987 is 62175500m3, which is 0.9 times of 1949' s 5.67m 3. The mechanization degree of forest harvesting and transportation in Northeast and Inner Mongolia forest regions, Southwest and Northwest regions is 965438 0.38%.
After the founding of New China, in order to develop forestry mechanization, two forestry manufacturing plants were established in Northeast China in the early 1950s, which can only produce logging tools and forest railway vehicles. In 1980s, it was able to produce a variety of products, including forest harvesting and transportation, wood processing, forestry equipment, forestry tools, cutting tools and hunting machinery. There were 77 forestry machinery factories in the forestry system. With the development of forestry institutionalization, through the introduction of mechanical equipment and technical transformation, new progress has been made not only in improving the mechanical properties of a single process, but also in the creation of combined machinery, such as the development of forest management machinery with China characteristics, such as mountain land preparation machines, ultra-low capacity sprayers, hydraulic transmission wood loaders, steel-framed pole skidding aerial ropeways, and other new wood processing machinery products, such as low-noise band saws, woodworking machines, panel furniture setting equipment and so on.
At present, there are not many college students majoring in forest engineering, but there are a large number of talents majoring in forest engineering in China at this stage, as can be seen from the employment rate of this major 100%.
Forest environmental science, forest ecological economics, surveying, soil mechanics and engineering geology, hydraulics and hydrology, engineering electromechanical foundation, structural mechanics, road engineering, mechanical design and manufacturing foundation, ergonomics, operational research, etc.

To strengthen the cultivation of graduate students' scientific research ability, graduate students should participate in certain academic activities, and tutors and teaching and research departments should actively support, organize and require graduate students to participate in relevant academic activities, so that they can understand the development trend of disciplines, broaden their horizons and cultivate pioneering and innovative spirit. The specific requirements are: attending off-campus academic conferences or academic reports 1 time or more; Make academic reports or staged research in this discipline 1 time or more. This activity should be included in the teaching plan of the teaching and research section.
Assessment method: After the academic activities of graduate students, submit a copy of the thesis, research report or academic report abstract (the abstract is not less than 500 words), and indicate the time, place and speaker of the report. After the instructor signs it, they should keep it for themselves. After meeting the requirements, the tutor or teaching and research section will write comments on the postgraduate academic report.
Six, the paper work and paper requirements
Postgraduates in this discipline must publish at least one academic paper in the name of Southwest Forestry College in official journals and academic conferences (official publications) that have great influence at home and abroad, or win awards at or above the provincial level (mainly the completion person) or obtain a national patent technology.
Dissertation work is a comprehensive training of graduate students' scientific research ability, including literature review, opening report, scientific experiment (or scientific research investigation, engineering design), writing papers and so on. Literature review and opening report are two very important links. More than 30 recent related literatures should be consulted, including at least 10 foreign literatures, and a literature review of about 1000 words should be completed on this basis, including the research status and level at home and abroad related to this research topic, the problems to be further studied, the purpose, significance and application prospect of the research; On this basis, according to the format requirements of graduate topic selection report, the thesis topic selection report is refined and completed. Postgraduates should present a thesis topic report in the third semester, and listen to opinions in a certain range (the research group or the whole teaching and research group). With the consent of the tutor and the approval of the teaching and research group, the paper work plan should be made and the research work should be carried out.
The basic requirements of dissertation are: the topic of dissertation should have certain academic theoretical significance or clear engineering significance; The research results should have new insights or solve practical production problems; It should be shown that the author has the ability to independently engage in scientific research or undertake technical work; The format, grammar, quotation and punctuation of the paper should meet the relevant requirements; If there is software content, the source program disc should be attached to the paper, which is the core part of the work. The thesis work should be completed independently under the guidance of the tutor. The actual workload is not less than 1 academic year, and the number of words in the thesis is generally around 30,000 words.
The research results of the paper should have new insights, generally referring to:
(1) There are theoretical insights in the research field that have never been seen or affirmed by predecessors, and this new insight is not only well founded, but also a meaningful and important link in this field; In other words, although the predecessors had opinions, with the progress of science and technology, in the process of re-understanding, they put forward completely different opinions from the predecessors, which are fully based and in line with modern scientific theories.
(2) In recent years, although there are frontier disciplines abroad, there are research methods or testing techniques with certain popularization and application value, reliable experimental comparison data and preliminary explanation, and meaningful new results can be obtained.
(3) The application of professional basic principles in the field of high-tech products has achieved new social benefits and has certain practical promotion value.

Graduate students should learn Marxist theory well, take an active part in the political and situation education stipulated by schools and colleges (departments), take an active part in social welfare undertakings, pay attention to cultivating production ethics and establish good scientific ethics.
(2) Combine the tutor responsibility system with the collective training of academic groups and teaching and research sections, and give full play to the leading role of tutors and the collective role of guidance groups. The tutor should make a training plan according to the specific situation of each student.
(3) Pay equal attention to course study and dissertation work, so that students can master the basic theory, professional knowledge and basic methods of scientific research of their major, and attach importance to cultivating and improving the practical ability of graduate students.
(4) The teaching of the course is mainly self-study, supplemented by lectures. In terms of learning methods, the combination of lectures and self-study, and the combination of heuristic and discussion can fully stimulate the initiative and creativity of graduate students' self-study and cultivate their ability to find, analyze and solve problems.
(5) After the graduate students have completed the required professional credits, they should independently complete their dissertations under the guidance of their tutors. Pay attention to cultivate a style of seeking truth from facts, being rigorous and meticulous, integrating theory with practice and a rigorous learning attitude.
(6) Take part in physical exercise and national fitness exercise regularly to keep healthy.
VIII. Mid-term evaluation
Mid-term evaluation is an effective measure to strengthen postgraduate training management and improve postgraduate training quality. Diversion of assessment and teaching students in accordance with their aptitude are conducive to promoting the growth of senior professionals; At the same time, assessment is an inspection of training work, which plays a role in exchanging experiences, finding problems and improving methods.
The assessment is generally arranged at the end of the third semester or the beginning of the fourth semester. The evaluation work is organized and led by the teaching and research section (research room), with the cooperation of the tutor and the guidance group, and the relevant leaders of the institute (department) and graduate department participated. The assessment contents mainly include the political performance, course performance, published papers, project summary, opening report and thinking ability of graduate students in the past year.
