According to the characteristics of landscape architecture, the joint graduation design activities will be carried out by means of centralized site survey, mixed grouping, on-site teaching and centralized final defense. In addition to teachers from participating universities, the instructors also specially invited Mr. Liu Zhisheng from Beijing Forestry University, Mr. Liu Zhanke from Lanzhou University, Mr. Meng from Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, and Mr. Jia Jianzhong and Mr. Fu Yanrong from Chinese Society of Landscape Architecture, for guidance.
The site survey were selected in Baiyin City, Gansu Province, and the theme focused on "Yellow River Village Revitalization and Ecological Cultural Tourism Industry Development in Baiyin City." The activity lasted for three days. The Baiyin Municipal Bureau of Culture, Radio, Television and Tourism, Baiyin District People's Government, Pingchuan District People's Government, Jingyuan County People's Government and Chinese Society of Landscape Architecture provided strong support for this activity. The work camp investigated the characteristics of the ancient silk road landscape culture, the Yellow River culture, the red culture and the rural culture along the Yellow River in Gansu's Baiyin section within three days of investigation.
Site Survey
Teachers and students of Chang'an University actively participated in the exchanges between teachers and students of various universities. After completing the research work of the day, they also grouped in the hotel conference room to share research materials and research feelings in the evening. Finally, each group was given a speech by a student representative, and the teachers summarized and put forward some new design ideas.
Discussion
The work camp research work was rich and colorful. It ended perfectly with the strong support of the local government and leaders, as well as the joint efforts of the teachers and students of the five universities. The research work closely followed the grassroots understanding of the situation. The teachers and students felt the eager demand of the local government in the western region for rural revitalization, the simple desire of grassroots workers to get rich, and the local people's hope for rural development and life improvement. It is expected that the teachers and students of our school can actively exchange and study with teachers and students of various universities and achieve excellent results in this joint graduation project.
