【 摘 要 】

In order to help Shandong University of Science and Technology with the construction of Eco-campus, a study on the ecological status of the campus has been carried out. With the help of the component method of ecological footprint, the ecological footprint and efficiency of Shandong University of Science and Technology in 2016 has been analyzed well. The results showed that the ecological footprint of Shandong University of Science and Technology was 18058.46hm2 in total, and that the ecological efficiency was 2.22 person•hm-2. The footprint of energy consumption, accounting for 46.2% of the total footprint, is the largest, followed by food consumption and garbage. The construction of Eco-campus should focus on the above-mentioned three aspects. Compared with other colleges and universities at home and abroad, the ecological carrying capacity of Shandong University of Science and Technology was higher while the ecological efficiency was much lower. Obviously, its construction of Eco-campus was lagged behind those first-class universities. The study showed that policy support and economic input would have an important impact on ecological construction of colleges and universities. According to the characteristics of the ecological footprint structure, this paper puts forward some reasonable suggestions from two aspects: campus ecological construction and "personnel training", and provides reference for the construction of Eco-campus in colleges and universities.
