For students majoring in architecture, these "laboratories" provide them with opportunities to study architectural design, building materials and modern building technology in depth.

The second specialty is landscape architecture. Belonging to an excellent landscaping company, the college's horticulture major is very strong in both theoretical teaching and practical teaching. Students will learn all kinds of plants, flowers and trees, and carry out various practical courses inside and outside the school, such as flower modeling and courtyard design.

The third characteristic major is urban planning. This major is dedicated to training urban planners and making contributions to the sustainable development of cities. Students will deeply study the knowledge of urban planning, architecture, landscape and transportation, and apply this knowledge to practical courses such as planning, design and practice, so as to lay a solid foundation for students to become qualified urban planners.
