==History==
The history of China Agricultural University can be traced back to 1905 when the College of Agriculture was founded in the former [[Peking University|Imperial University of Peking]]. Beijing Agricultural University (BAU) was established in September 1949 through the merging of Peking University's College of Agriculture, [[Tsinghua University]]'s College of Agriculture and [[North China University]]'s College of Agriculture.<ref>{{Cite web |title=History of China Agricultural University |url=http://en.cau.edu.cn/col/col32354/index.html |access-date=2022-11-02 |website=en.cau.edu.cn}}</ref>
 
In 1954, BAU was listed by the State Council as one of the Top-Six [[National Key Universities]] as well as one of the Top-Ten Key Universities for further construction and improvement.<ref name=":5">{{Cite book |last1=Yudkevich |first1=Maria |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=KFipCwAAQBAJ&dq=In+1954+six+universities+were+named+to+the+first+list+of+key+universities&pg=PT67 |title=The Global Academic Rankings Game: Changing Institutional Policy, Practice, and Academic Life |last2=Altbach |first2=Philip G. |last3=Rumbley |first3=Laura E. |date=2016-03-02 |publisher=Routledge |isbn=978-1-317-38737-4 |language=en}}</ref>
 
In October 1952, BAU's Department of Agricultural Machinery, North China College of Agricultural Machinery and Ministry of Agriculture's Central Agricultural Mechanization School merged to form the Beijing Mechanized Agricultural College, which was renamed Beijing Agricultural Mechanization Institute (BAMI) in July 1953. The BAMI was listed by the State Council in October 1960 as one of the 64 National Key Universities and then renamed again as Beijing Agricultural Engineering University (BAEU) in 1985.{{Cn|date=October 2024}}
 
In 1995, Beijing Agricultural University and Beijing Agricultural Engineering University merged as China Agricultural University (CAU). Since then, the university has become the top academic institution in China in terms of agricultural studies.{{Cn|date=October 2024}}
