Northwestern university south qin qin qin mountain belt, north of the yellow highlands. A unique geographical advantage has given the department of geology of northwestern university a good space for research and development. In 1999, zhang guowei, who had graduated from school, was elected a member of the chinese academy of sciences, and a native-born member of his school was born at northwestern university。
More than 100,000 miles across qin
Zhang guowei, tectonic geologist, ex-cold-force geologist. In 1961, zhang guowei, 22 years old, had just graduated from northwestern university and stayed in school, setting up a programme for himself to cross the country on foot. In the next half-century, zhang guowei and his colleagues, students and students travelled more than 100,000 kilometres across the qinshan mountains。

In 1983, zhang guowei proposed at the beijing international seminar on the pre-cold war quest as granite-green rock, and the taihua group as a high-level piece of magma, both of which form the southern part of the northern china plot of zolin in the evening. At the time, granite-green rock research was a hot spot at the international level, but no real granite-green rock areas had been identified at the national level. The participating continental geologists then made a field trip to the landing seal and confirmed zhang's awareness at the field visit site. This is the first time that zhang guo wei has become prominent in international academia. In 1988, zhang guowei again proposed qinqing as a complex continental mountain belt, with different tectonic systems evolving at different stages of development, a new idea and new understanding of the system that addresses the fundamental problems of qinqing's geological formation, which has once again attracted more than 40 mid- and foreign geologists to visit qinqing。
Starting in 1992, zhang guowei, as chair of a major project of the national foundation commission, in collaboration with the geochemist zhang beneon and the geophysicist yuan zheng zheng fellow, led a group of 150 scientists from all over the country, once in a row, to examine the geology of the qin ridge and the deep structure of hundreds of kilometres deep, and, after repeated comparative analysis, to propose new ideas and models for the formation and evolution of the qin ling mountain zone mountain belt, establishing a new geometry model for the three-dimensional tectonic structure of the qin ling qin zhen qin zhen zhen qin qin qin qin qin qin qin qin qin qin qin qin qin qin qin qian qian qian qian qian qian qian qian qian qian qian qian qian qian zhuong zhuang zhu z。
The alumni bring more or more responsibility

In 1999, zhang guowei was elected a member of the chinese academy of sciences. But for zhang guo wei, the “academic” brings not only honour and recognition, but also more responsibilities, and how can it contribute to the sustainable development of the geology disciplines of the emerging northwestern university? How can new discoveries and innovations be made at the forefront of contemporary earth science? To become a problem that always haunts him。
Zhang guowei, after entering the “project 211” project at the university of north-west china, has actively recommended that the school focus its investment on the establishment of the continental dynamics focus laboratory. Under his leadership, the continental dynamics focus laboratory was established. The laboratory has now become a national priority, and the level of subject analysis testing is already at the international front level. Today, this laboratory not only provides important technical safeguards for the geology and related specializations of the northwestern university, which have produced a number of important scientific results, but also attracts leading scientists from both home and abroad to the northwestern university for collaborative exchanges。
“teaching is the function of the teacher.” he never forgets that he is a teacher, teaching and teaching, and that he is part of his job. Zhang guowei used to say that. Students in the department of geology like to listen to zhang guowei。

The rapid development of geology and the great needs of the state and human society for geology and talent have made him anxious to learn from his knowledge, experience and lessons and to move early to the international academic frontier to solve major scientific problems and achieve significant scientific achievements. He often said, “i'm over 70 years old, but there are scientific questions that i hope my students will finally solve. My students must be ahead of me."
Many of the students directed by zhang guowei have become academic leaders, academic leaders, yangtze scholars, etc. In the western great geology department, there is now an active team of research teams from the accompanied and acclaimed north-west university mountain belt and continental tectonics. Many of the team, inspired by the personality of their teachers, abandoned other institutions and even excellent working conditions overseas and gathered at the northwestern university campus。
