Abstract: Prof. Liu Guochang is one of the founders of engineering geology in China,the founder of engineering geology for regional stability,the father of education for engineering geology in China,the frontier of mineral resource exploration,the contributor for construction of the national major engineering project. He graduated from the Department of Geology,Peking University in 1936. Responsing to the anoucement of "Find Ores to Help Our Nation",he investiaged mineral resources under the war's fire for a decade more. In 1951,he was invited by Prof. Yu Deyuan to Northeast College of Geology as a teacher. He founded the Department of Hydrogeology and Engineering Geology and was appointed as the director of the department. Since that time,he started the education career of engineering geology in China. With the help of the former Soviet Union specialist B.H.Novorinov,he supervised the first class of post-graduate students in engineering geology and trained the first group of engineering geologist for the new China. All of them formed the basement of Chinese engineering geology. In 1981,he moved to Xi'an College of Geology and built the Department of Hydrogeology and Engineering Geology in the college. In 1984,with the effort of Prof. Liu Guochang,the college obtained the qualification for educating Ph. D students. He began to supervise Ph. D students in 1985. He founded the basement of hydrogeology and engineering geology discipline in the college and input the potential energy for its quick development in the later time.
