5. Brief Introduction to HZAU

HZAU has been holding the core value of promoting China’s agricultural development since its founding in 1898 and adhering to the motto “learn and practice, achieve and help achieve” generation after generation during its 123 years’ history. It is now a research-intensive university on the list of “Double-First Class” initiative released in 2017, with world-class dominant disciplines and distinctive characteristics and will be developing itself into a world-class university with distinctive features in 2048 upon its 150th anniversary.

Over the past decades, HZAU has achieved coordinated development of multi-disciplines of agriculture, science, engineering, humanities, law, economics, management, arts, etc. We strive to build a world-class university with a specialization in agriculture and life science, to improve the research impacts of all disciplines in HZAU. Currently, ten disciplines have ranked among top 1% of ESI, including Plant Science & Zoology, Agricultural Science, Biology & Biochemistry, Molecular Biology & Genetics, Microbiology, Environmental Science & Ecology, Chemistry, Engineering Science, Pharmacology & Toxicology, and Material Science, with Plant Science & Zoology and Agricultural Science ranking the top 1‰.

HZAU embraces National Key Laboratory of Crop Genetic Improvement and State Key Laboratory of Agricultural Microbiology, 8 national engineering(technology) research centers, 8 international scientific cooperation bases and is preparatory in building one National Key Major Scientific and Technological Infrastructure. The university has also 77 provincial key laboratories, centers or bases, and many research-sharing platforms, including Electron Microscope Platform, Proteomics Platform, Metabonomics Platform, Bioinformatics High Performance Computing Cluster, Physical and Chemical Analysis Platform, Flow Cell platform, Animal Biosafety Level III Laboratory, Experimental Animal Center, Field Scientific Observation and Research Station.

The Hubei Hongshan Laboratory, designed primarily by HZAU, was formally approved by the Hubei government in December 2020. As an independent organization, it has received huge support from the Hubei government and is among the earliest laboratories that were supported by research grants in Hubei Province. Researchers here conduct basic and applied research on biological genetic improvement, with a focus on plant and animal breeding, to meet the urgent needs in agriculture and food industry, to initiate scientific and technological innovation in plant and animal breeding, and to achieve the overall goal of providing food that is beneficial for both humans and the earth. Research on green, quality, and nutritious crops that are adaptive to climate change is also being carried out here, with the aim to design environmentally-friendly production technologies, to improve food nutrition, to promote sustainable agricultural development, to ensure food security, as well as to improve the well-being of Chinese people.

HZAU is located in one of the major urban areas of Wuhan, Hubei province. Situating in Shizishan (Lion Mountain) and being surrounded by the South Lake, HZAU takes pride in its nine kilometers lake shoreline, five square kilometers campus with picturesque scenery, and ten kilometers “trails in forests”. Our campus is known as a “natural oxygen bar”, or garden-like school. It is the cultural atmosphere, architecture, and scenery that makes HZAU appealing. The subtropical climate, abundant vegetation and harmonious environment make it a beautiful garden rich in flora and oxygen. The living facilities, hospital and gymnasiums on campus are well-equipped. Its affiliated kindergarten, primary and secondary schools rank the top level among educational institutions in Wuhan. Adjacent to the Central Ring and subway lines, the campus is surrounded by commercial centers and well-known educational and scientific research institutions. Its convenient transportation and quiet environment make it an ideal place to work and live in.

We welcome scholars of the same research interests to join in and create the school’s blueprint for further development. The recruitment is tailored for each candidate with sound supporting policies. With the reference to the corresponding positions in world-class universities, leading scholars and top talents will be employed as full professors and directly appraised as supervisors of doctoral and master students, with start-up fund, laboratory space and salary all negotiable and tailored for each individual. On-campus housing service will be provided. Young researchers will be integrated into the team of co-supervisors within the system of post-doctoral research management, assuming the major task of scientific research and subordinate task of teaching assistance, and will be employed as associate research fellows or research fellows with a competitive yearly income. Young researchers will also be provided with on-campus housing service and will be firstly recommended and considered when applying for a vacant teaching position of HZAU. Technicians with experimental expertise will be HZAU’s formal staff and placed in professional and technical positions with corresponding salaries. The exceptionally good technicians may have negotiable payment.
