On October 27th, our university held the International Agricultural Engineering Carnival and the 2024 Tianjin "Head Goose" Achievement Exhibition for Agricultural Products Entering Universities. Jin Weiwei, Deputy Secretary of the School Party Committee and President, Song Tao, Deputy Secretary of the School Party Committee, Wang Fanzhen, Standing Committee Member of the School Party Committee and Vice President, Cao Dongning, Standing Committee Member of the School Party Committee and Leader of the Discipline Inspection and Supervision Group stationed on campus, and Zhao Junqiang, Director of the Group Cadre Office and Second level Inspector of the Municipal Agriculture and Rural Affairs Commission, attended the event.
This event is divided into three parts: the opening ceremony, campus parade, and zone display.
At the opening ceremony, Wang Fanzhen delivered the opening speech. He emphasized that this carnival event showcases the scientific and technological innovation achievements of teachers and students in agricultural engineering related disciplines at our university, as well as the agricultural achievements of members of the "Head Goose" project. It is hoped that through rich and colorful professional exhibitions and interactions, the enthusiasm of teachers and students for scientific research will be stimulated, and the spirit of hard work and struggle will continue to be carried forward. We will forge ahead, consciously enhance our sense of responsibility and mission in scientific research, and transform high-quality scientific research achievements into services for the development of Tianjin's new quality productivity.
Cao Dongning, the head of the Discipline Inspection and Supervision Group stationed at the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection, presented the school flag to the College of Engineering and Technology.
As Jin Weiwei announced the opening of the event, a song called 'On the Field of Hope' echoed through the sky, pushing the joyful atmosphere of the scene to a climax.
During the campus parade, the faculty and student teams of the School of Engineering and Technology, international student teams, alumni representative teams, "Head Goose" project student representative teams, as well as some agricultural engineering equipment were paraded and displayed on campus.
The student team includes college veterans, students from the Xinjiang Aid Teaching Corps, volunteers from the Dream Chasing Youth Volunteer Team, and members of the Leichong Science and Technology Innovation Association. During their school years, they actively participated in various social activities and carried out technological innovation, setting a learning example for first-year students.
The parade equipment team is the highlight of this event. The equipment exhibited this time includes traditional agricultural machinery such as high-powered tractors, manual precision seeders, and micro cultivators, as well as various intelligent equipment such as MG-1P series agricultural crop protection drones, inspection robots, and carbon dioxide generators that serve smart agriculture. Among them, the scientific research achievement of "Wireless remote control self-propelled fertilization robot for vegetable greenhouses and its promotion and application" won the second prize in the development category of the 2019 Tianjin Science and Technology Award; The Chinese herbal medicine disease intelligent inspection robot won the gold medal of the 2023 Internet plus Innovation and Entrepreneurship Competition in Tianjin.
The exhibition area for practical teaching achievements mainly includes undergraduate education and teaching achievements in five majors: agricultural mechanization and automation, measurement and control technology and instruments, new energy science and engineering, electrical engineering and automation, and robotics engineering. College teachers introduce the research and development process, internal structure, and working principles of professional equipment to freshmen. In the exhibition area of the "Head Goose" project achievements, high-quality agricultural products produced by more than 30 participating companies from the "Head Goose" project are displayed.
Since 2022, our school has been the main implementing unit of the "Head Geese" project for cultivating rural industry revitalization leaders during the "14th Five Year Plan" period in Tianjin. Every year, we select 100 rural industry revitalization leaders from 10 agricultural areas to participate in training. We plan to cultivate a team of "Head Geese" rural industry revitalization leaders within 5 years, drive the formation of a "goose formation" of new agricultural management entities, and consolidate the talent foundation for rural industry revitalization.
This event aims to showcase the teaching and research equipment of five undergraduate majors and agricultural engineering disciplines in the School of Engineering and Technology, as well as the achievements of undergraduate teaching practice and the "Head Goose" program. It aims to guide students to cultivate a love for the Party, the country, agriculture, and the school, inherit the Leichong culture, enrich the spiritual and cultural life of Tiannong Engineering personnel, enhance the sense of social responsibility and mission of contemporary college students, and promote professional development and cultural exchange.
This event is jointly organized by the School of Engineering and Technology, the School of Continuing Education, and the International Office. More than 560 people, including teachers and students from the School of Engineering and Technology, the Dean's Office, the Rural Revitalization Training Institute, the International Exchange Office, the Party Committee Student Work Department, the School Youth League Committee, the School of Computer and Information Engineering, as well as students from Tianjin's first, second, and third phases, and the "Tiannong Xiaoyan" student team, participated in the event.
