At the beginning of the school in 1987, our institute established the chemical engineering and biochemical engineering deparments, which combined into biological and chemical engineering institute in 1996, and in 2006 biological and chemical engineering institute was established.
l First:The institutions For teaching and scientific research and professional settings
The biological and chemical engineering institute has biological engineering, chemical engineering and technology, food science and engineering and applied chemistry four undergraduate majors. Biological and chemical engineering institute now has experiment center of the basis of biological and chemical (inorganic and analytical chemistry laboratory, organic chemistry lab, physical and chemical laboratory, analytical testing laboratory, biochemistry laboratory, microbiology laboratory). Chemical engineering experiment center (principles of chemical engineering laboratory, chemical engineering and technology specialty laboratory, applied chemistry laboratory, chemical process simulation technology laboratory), biological and food engineering technology experiment center (biological engineering laboratory, food science and engineering laboratory, separation technology laboratory) and key laboratory of nanyang industrial microorganisms. The basic biological and chemical experiment center in 2002 passed the provincial basic laboratory assessment acceptance. In addition we also have chemical process, fine chemical, fermentation technology, food technology and the basic five teaching and research section.
l Second :The Condition of the teachers troop
Biological and chemical engineering institute has 41 full-time teachers, there are 14 people with senior technical titles (eight professors and 6 associate professors, and graduate student degree of 40 people (Dr 7, a PhD candidate in 10 people).
l Third :Teaching instruments and equipment and experiment
The biological and chemical engineering institute has three experiment center and a key laboratory of nanyang,besides the instruments and equipment for the total value are more than 13 milion. what’s more,there are a relatively stable off-campus practice,and practice base, and our students would go to The tianguan company in henan ,the wanxi pharmaceutical company in henan, the PuKang group chemical pharmaceutical factory and other well-known companies to off-campus practice during their study time. These experiment out of school and practice base in the applied talents training played an extremely important role.
l Fourth:education and science and technology services.
Since 2007, in accordance with the spirit of the school educational reform, and actively promote educational reform, implementation of quality education.According to the applied talents training target,and carry out the teaching contents and curriculum system as the core of education reform practice,court redefined the professional development goals and professional direction,we obtained some achievements.Food Science and Engineering is the national professional pilot of excellent engineers, but also characteristics of the provincial construction professionals.It undertaked university quality construction projects up to 17,there was three people received the honorary title of provincial and four people received the honor of the provincial cross-century academic backbone and academic technology leaders and so on.
Our college teachers actively engaged in teaching and scientific research in the commitment to complete the task of teaching reform premise,so,in recent years, they completed a total of provinces and municipalities and more than ten projects,more than teaching and research projects, construction university courses 11,published textbooks monographs and more than 20, in CN journals published more than 150, more than 20 research papers, including the core journals published in more than 90, won 8 national invention patents.
