What are the declining universities in the Eight Universities?
In the early 1950s, in order to build a new China, the state built eight famous universities in Xueyuan Road, Haidian District, Beijing: Beijing Institute of Mining (formerly China Institute of Mining, now China University of Mining (Beijing)), Beijing Institute of Geology (now China Geo University (Beijing)), Beijing Institute of Iron and Steel (now Beijing University of Science and Technology), Beijing Institute of Agricultural Machinery Engineering (now China Agricultural University (East Zone)) and Petroleum Institute (Beijing College). Times have changed, and now great changes have taken place in these once brilliant universities.

You may have noticed that several universities have added (Beijing) to their names, which may be an indelible pain for these universities. It was in the late 1960s that Lin Biao issued this order to prevent Soviet invasion? Order, the capital's important organs and colleges and universities to implement a big shift, which is later the famous third-line construction. Eight universities on Xueyuan Road are among them. The Mining Institute, the Geological Institute, the Forestry Institute and the Petroleum Institute responded positively and acted immediately, while other schools continued to wait and see. Results On the current college road, the worst petroleum university (former site) has been completely occupied by the family courtyard and the stone exploration courtyard, and now the petroleum university (Beijing) runs a school in Changping; The original 1000 mu of mine was in 1972, and 2/3 of the land was allocated to Beiyu. In addition, there were too few staff in the rear office in Beijing, occupying several plots of land (such as Dongwangzhuang now), and now there are only 320 mu left; Although the campuses of Dada (Beijing) and Linda University are well preserved, a large amount of land in the campus has been occupied by relevant research institutions, while the campuses of University of Science and Technology Beijing and Beihang University have not been relocated because of the wait-and-see in those years, and the campuses are relatively well preserved.

Let me talk about Beijing Institute of Mining and Technology-China University of Mining and Technology (Beijing). This is one of the most brilliant colleges in those days, and it is also one of the most impoverished colleges now. The former China Institute of Mining and Technology (in Tianjin) was developed from Jiaozuo Road and Mining School 1909 (Jiaozuo Road and Mining School was a famous private school at that time). After the great stage of Fuzhong Mine, the foundation was good, and it was later merged by relevant departments of Tsinghua University, Beiyang University and Tangshan Jiaotong University, with strong strength. During the Cultural Revolution, it moved to Hechuan, Sichuan (the conditions were extremely poor), which was the worst among the eight universities. In just a few years, something happened that made miners feel resentful and humiliated (which had a great influence, even an important reason for the decline of miners)-the long wall made many old professors cry. 1978, under the instruction of Deng Xiaoping, the school was established in Xuzhou, and the Beijing graduate department was established in the Beijing rear office. China University of Mining and Technology (Beijing Campus) was founded in 1997. In 2003, it was officially renamed as China University of Mining and Technology (Beijing), becoming an educational entity with equal emphasis on postgraduate education and undergraduate education. But the division between Xuzhou and Beijing has affected the strength of the university. The most vagrant university in China, 14 times moved and renamed 1 1 times, is unique and holds high the banner of mining, and is the only institution named after mining in China.

Let's take a look at Beijing Geo University-China Geo University. Being completely separated from Wuhan Geo University, Beijing Geo University has great potential for revitalization. In addition, the current Prime Minister is a member of the former University of Geology. The situation seems to have improved. However, like the University of Mining and Technology, due to the name of the school, running schools in two places, and engaging in "hard work", I want to restore the glory of that year, hehe ... hehe. ...

And agricultural university. 1995 college of agricultural machinery engineering and Beijing agricultural university merged to form China agricultural university, which has greatly increased its strength and now has 19 national key disciplines.
