The predecessor of College of Biology and Agricultural Engineering of Jilin University is the agricultural machinery specialty and tractor specialty of Changchun Automobile and Tractor College, which was founded in 1955. Since then, "making contributions to the agricultural machinery industry in New China" has become the unchanging initial intention of the older generation of agricultural machinery workers. Since 1957, the college began to recruit undergraduates, and began to train postgraduates in 1960. In 1981, it established a doctoral program in agricultural machinery design and manufacturing, and in 1989, it established a postdoctoral mobile station in agricultural engineering, which went through the Department of Agricultural Machinery of Changchun Automobile and Tractor College and the College of Agricultural Machinery Engineering of Jilin University of Technology. In May 2001, the College of Biological and Agricultural Engineering of Jilin University was established by agricultural engineering and its related disciplines. In the past 60 years, the college has formed a fine tradition and a solid school spirit, accumulated the training of "Ming Zhi devoted to intensive cultivation and innovation", and condensed the college spirit of self-reliance and accumulation, which is the foundation of China's agricultural machinery design and manufacturing specialty, the training of agricultural engineering and related professionals, the ground-vehicle system mechanics, high-speed precision sowing, bionic technology of ground mechanical desorption and drag reduction, agricultural system engineering and other fields, and the development of bionic theory in agricultural engineering, agricultural system engineering, etc.
