Over the past year, 48 five-education activities were organized for the department as a whole and individual classes, covering more than 1200 people-times. Based on their professional characteristics, from the perspectives of ecological civilization progress and meteorological science and technology development, students took part in the special activities of Arbor Day, "Planting Bauhinia Forest Together", the World Meteorological Day roadshow sponsored by the China Meteorological Administration and the World Earth Day roadshow "Listening to the Earth", making great efforts to build a brand with DESS characteristics.
