FAFU-Dal 4+0 Joint Degree Program

Programs offered

The 4+0 Joint College currently offers two undergraduate programs delivered collaboratively by FAFU and Dal:

Agricultural Economics (DAL) / Agricultural and Forestry Economics and Management (FAFU)

Students develop strong foundations in agricultural and forestry business, resource economics, market analysis, and policy decision-making. The program combines applied economics with real-world agricultural systems to prepare graduates for careers in agribusiness, finance, consulting, and government.

Landscape Architecture (DAL) / Landscape Architecture (FAFU)

This program blends creativity, environmental design, and hands-on technical skills. Students learn landscape planning, ecological design, digital modelling, and site development using the same curriculum taught on Dalhousie’s Agricultural Campus.

Learning experience

  • Dalhousie-developed curriculum fully aligned with Canadian academic standards
  • Courses taught by Dalhousie instructors, supported by FAFU’s academic team
  • English-medium instruction, with student support to help build academic English skills
  • Opportunities for experiential learning, design projects, and field activities
  • Graduates receive two bachelor’s degrees—one from FAFU and one from Dalhousie University (subject to meeting degree requirements)

About the partnership

The FAFU-Dal Joint College was established to combine FAFU’s strong reputation in agricultural and environmental sciences with Dalhousie’s long-standing excellence in agricultural education and research. The Joint College aims to foster global academic collaboration and support high-quality educational opportunities for students in China.
