Although many universities are official departments, they are directly managed by ministries and commissions because of their strong professional categories, and their funds and cadre appointments are managed by ministries and commissions. Although the presidents of these universities are not affiliated with the director of the provincial education department, they are all at the same level and belong to the main hall level. Universities in many places are managed by provincial party committees and governments and belong to the main hall level. The leading cadres of the school are appointed and managed by the province, and the funds are also allocated by the province! Generally, the Education Working Committee of the Provincial Party Committee and the Education Department will provide escrow and business guidance to these provincial universities on behalf of the province. But purely from the level, the presidents of these universities are the same size and level as the directors of the education department.

The director of the Education Department represents the educational affairs and the allocation of resources in the province. Even if the president and director of a university are at the same level, you should leave a C for the director when you participate in relevant educational activities.

The appointment system is adopted for university presidents in China, and the selection is based on the criteria for selecting party and government cadres. The established selection method is that the principal is at least an academic leader or a research scholar. Universities in China have administrative departments. From the level of view, the highest administrative level in China's universities is the vice-ministerial university, and the lowest administrative level is the vice-ministerial university. From the perspective of the competent units, some administrative departments of university education are the Provincial Department of Education, and some administrative departments of university education are the Ministry of Education. In addition to the education administrative department, there are many other administrative departments in state-owned universities. For example, the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences all have their own directly affiliated universities. University presidents in China are appointed, vice-ministerial university presidents are the State Council, departmental universities are appointed by ministries, and provincial universities are provincial committees.

Generally speaking, the director of the education department and the administrative level are leading cadres at the official level. And the president of an ordinary university, if it is an undergraduate college, the administrative level of the president is the leading cadre at the official department level. If it is a junior college, the principal's administrative level is only the deputy department level. Provincial universities are directly under the provincial government and are not under the jurisdiction of the Education Department. General private universities or non-higher education schools belong to the education sector. The appointment of the president of a provincial university is not through the education department, but decided by the provincial party Committee. There is no subordinate relationship between the Education Department and provincial colleges and universities, but at most there are some financial links. However, the finance of general provincial colleges and universities also comes directly from the finance of the provincial government rather than the finance of the education department. What does the administrative level of a university mean to a university, and the administrative level of its president and party secretary? The higher the administrative level, the more financial support from the state, and the more high-quality educational resources you can enjoy.

As the head of a provincial education system, the director of the provincial education department is in charge of the education management of all schools and colleges in the province. For example, the overall distribution of educational resources such as educational planning, cadres and personnel, human resources, property, etc., can be said that "power" is very large and the scope of influence is also very large. Universities have not only presidents, but also party committee secretaries. In this case, the university president can only manage the scientific research and teaching affairs of the school, and major issues need to be collectively studied and decided by the university party Committee.
