The College of Computer Science and Technology, Nanjing Forestry University was established in 1999. By the time of 2008, the departments of the college were reorganized. The department of Electronic Engineering and Automation, which used to belong to the college of Timber Industry, were added to the college of Information science and technology.  The college now has five undergraduate majors: Computer Science and Technology, Software Engineering, Electronic Information Engineering, Electrical Engineering and automation, Internet of Things Engineering. There two academic first-grade discipline master degree programs of Electronic Science and Technology, Software Engineering and an academic second-grade discipline mater degree program of Control Theory and Control Engineering, and two professional master degree programs of Instrument and Meter Engineering, Agricultural Informatization.In 2011, the Computer Science and Technology major was recognized as an experimental specialty of software engineering. Then in 2012, the major was also recognized as an experimental specialty to cultivate excellent engineer. Two majors, software engineering and internet of things, were chosen by Jiangsu Provincial Education Department to be included in the software outsourcing engineer training program in 2014 and 2015.
