Sun Yat-sen University [1] is a comprehensive key university founded by Dr. Sun Yat-sen with a school-running tradition of more than 100 years. Sun Yat-sen University Sun Yat-sen University
Today's Sun Yat-sen University was formed by the merger of Sun Yat-sen University and Sun Yat-sen Medical University, which were separated after the adjustment of departments in 1952.
From 65438 to 0835, Dr. peter parker of the United States set up a medical bureau in Guangzhou and trained the earliest western medicine in China. On this basis, Ji Bo Hospital was established, and the Medical Hall was established in 1866, which is the earliest medical education institution in China. 1888, Gezhi College was opened in Guangzhou by Americans.
1924, Dr. Sun Yat-sen personally integrated the schools established in Guangzhou since the late Qing Dynasty, including the National Guangdong Normal University, the Guangdong University of Public Law and the Guangdong Public Agricultural College, and founded the National Guangdong University, and personally wrote the school motto: "erudite, skeptical, thinking, clear and persistent". After the death of Dr. Sun Yat-sen, the school was named National Sun Yat-sen University on 1926. In 1930s, National Sun Yat-sen University had seven colleges: Arts, Science, Law, Engineering, Agriculture, Medicine and Normal University. 1935 set up a graduate school and began to recruit graduate students.
1952 after the adjustment of national departments, many departments and majors of the former Sun Yat-sen University were separated, among which the Department of Arts and Sciences merged with the relevant departments of Lingnan University to form the new Sun Yat-sen University. At the same time, after the medical schools of the two universities were separated, they merged to form a special medical school, and then merged with Guanghua Medical College in Guangzhou. After several renaming, it was finally named Sun Yat-sen Medical University. These two universities are key universities directly under the Ministry of Education and the Ministry of Health. They inherited the school-running traditions of Sun Yat-sen University, a revolutionary pioneer, and Lingnan University, which initiated the modern education system in China. They have formed their unique school-running characteristics and university style, and made important contributions to the development of contemporary higher education in China.
From 200 1 to 1, the former Sun Yat-sen University and Sun Yat-sen Medical University merged to form a new Sun Yat-sen University, which further broadened the discipline structure and became a comprehensive university including humanities, social sciences, natural sciences, technical sciences, engineering, medicine, pharmacy, economics and management.
Sun Yat-sen University [1] and Sun Yat-sen University of Medical Sciences have deep historical origins and academic traditions. Famous medical experts, such as Liang, Chen, Qin Guangyu, Lin Shumo, Zhou Shoukai, Zhong, Mao, Mao, Li Shaozhen, once taught at Sun Yat-sen Medical University. In 1950s, there were 56 first-class professors in China, of whom 12 taught at Sun Yat-sen University and Sun Yat-sen University of Medical Sciences. There are many famous teachers in the school. Their excellent character and superb academic attainments have influenced generations of students and formed a good academic atmosphere. Many talented graduates have become outstanding talents in all walks of life.
The school has four campuses with a total area of 6. 17 square kilometers, which are located on both sides of the Pearl River and the South China Sea. Guangzhou South Campus covers an area of 1. 17 square kilometers, North Campus covers an area of 0.39 square kilometers, Guangzhou East Campus covers an area of 1. 13 square kilometers and Zhuhai Campus covers an area of 3.48 square kilometers.
In 20 10, it was ranked as 17 1 in The Times World University Rankings, and its international popularity and influence were obviously expanded. Many disciplines in our school have great influence in academic fields at home and abroad. From 200 1 to 200 1 1 to 12, the number of disciplines entered into the ESI (essential science indicators) database in our university has reached 65,438+in the world. Ranked fifth in the country, the total influence of the paper (total cited times) reached 126276 times, ranking 399 in the world, in the top 0.08% position; In recent ten years, the average number of citations of ESI papers in our school is 7.65 times, ranking fourth among domestic universities.
History, philosophy, public administration, business administration, mathematics, biology, physics, chemistry, basic medicine, clinical medicine, public health, preventive medicine and other disciplines have consolidated their domestic advantages and become more distinctive. Some research directions have reached the international level, and their voice and influence in international academic circles are increasing day by day. According to the statistics of American ESI database, there are 14 disciplines in our school, which are in the position of 1% before the global ESI disciplines, including chemistry, clinical medicine, physics, biology and biochemistry, material science, molecular biology and genetics, engineering, plant and zoology, mathematics, environmental science and ecology, pharmacology and toxicology, agricultural science and so on.
Sun Yat-sen University also used the third phase of the "2 1 1 Project" key discipline construction project to promote interdisciplinary integration. For example, through early warning and early diagnosis of common clinical diseases, we can promote the intersection of clinical and basic medicine, through administrative reform and government governance research projects, promote the intersection of public management and political science, and promote the intersection of economics, business administration, law and geography through regional cooperation projects in Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao. The construction of these projects explores the mechanism of interdisciplinary integration and makes a useful attempt to organize interdisciplinary forces to carry out research on the same scientific problem. At the same time, according to the needs of national and local economic construction and social development and the planning of pillar industries and emerging industries, our school uses relevant key discipline construction projects to strengthen the construction of emerging disciplines. For example, marine science and other disciplines are developed through the biotechnology project of aquatic animal quality and safety in South China, and emerging disciplines such as new drug research and development are developed through structural reconstruction and screening based on the effective components of natural products in South China, so as to further integrate the strength of disciplines, realize resource sharing, and arrange for the development of a number of applied disciplines and engineering disciplines facing the strategic emerging industries of the country and Guangdong, making the discipline layout more reasonable and the structure more optimized.
Sun Yat-sen University ranks seventh in the University Rankings of China University Evaluation Research Report 20 13 published by China Alumni Association Network. In 20 13, Sun Yat-sen University ranked ninth in Chinese mainland and fifth1in Asia in the Top 100 Asian Universities of Times Higher Education.
At present, Sun Yat-sen University has stood at a new historical starting point. In the next five years or even a longer period of time, the strategic goal of school development is to build Sun Yat-sen University into a world-class university with extensive international influence and the integration of arts, science and medicine.
The first stage of historical evolution: from Ji Bo Medical Bureau and Gezhi Academy to before the institutional adjustment in the early days of liberation (1866 ~ 1953).

In the early days of National Guangdong University, liberal arts were divided into five departments: China Literature, English Literature, History, Philosophy and Education, while Normal University was divided into three departments: Literature and History, English and Society. Science is divided into five departments: mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology and geology, while teachers are divided into two departments: mathematics, physics, chemistry and natural history. The law department is divided into three departments: law, politics and economy. Agricultural science is divided into three departments: agronomy, forestry, agrochemistry and agronomy. The medical department is divided into departments, with a hospital and a nursing school; The preparatory course is divided into five groups: literature, science, law, agriculture and medicine, which are attached to primary normal schools and primary and secondary schools, all of which are handled according to the new western academic system; Each subject has a senior, a preparatory student and a director attached to the school to deal with educational affairs respectively; Set up a secretariat, a finance office and a library to handle school affairs and organize school affairs meetings, review and plan important school affairs respectively; Set up an engineering preparatory committee, plan to offer more engineering courses, and set up an overseas department of the University of Lyon in France to send students to study in France.

Subsequently, Guangdong Public Medical University, National Guangdong Law School and Engineering College of Guangdong Li Qin University merged one after another. 1926 In March, Guo Moruo became a senior in liberal arts, and Yu Dafu was the head of the English literature department. After Guo Moruo took office, he began to rectify the liberal arts and dismissed 15 professors. In April, the Secretariat began to publish the periodical "Learning Art Series", and conducted academic and literary discussions, social transformation research, criticism of world trends, and introduction of eastern and western masterpieces. At that time, the campus of Guangdong University was divided into four places in Guangzhou, but the headquarters, the two colleges of arts and sciences, the library and the affiliated schools were all located in the former Wen Ming Road Teachers College (namely Lu Xun Memorial Hall), which was also the venue of the first National Congress of the Chinese Nationalist Party and the place where Sun Yat-sen delivered a speech on the Three People's Principles. 1926 July 17 officially changed its name to "National Sun Yat-sen University" and became the highest institution of learning in Guangdong. 1926 17 In August, the National Government ordered that the name of the school be changed to National Sun Yat-sen University, formerly known as National Guangdong University.

As a discipline determined by Sun Yat-sen University in the early days, it focuses on introducing advanced medical education and academic research talents from Germany. The school adopts German-style management organization, selects German textbooks and teaches in German. Hospitals use German to make rounds, write medical records and write prescriptions. German must be taken in the entrance examination. Because there were few middle schools learning German in China at that time, enrollment was affected, and less than 50 new students were admitted every year. As of the eve of the Anti-Japanese War, there were less than 200 students in school. However, due to its high-quality education and teaching, CUHK trained a number of first-class medical talents in China at that time, such as Emperor Wen of Sui, Wang Dianxi, Ye Shaofu, Luo Qian, Zhang Mengshi and Zeng Xianwen. In March of the same year, the establishment of engineering college was mentioned again, and it is planned to be established in the second half of the year. First, four departments of civil engineering, mechanical engineering, electrical engineering and chemical engineering were established, and the school site was tentatively set as Wen Ming Road.

The library of Sun Yat-sen University originally contained financial and legal books and materials collected by the former South China United University and Guangdong Law and Business College, all of which were allocated to Zhongnan College of Economics and Law. If there are duplicates, they will be assigned to the above two schools. According to the above principles, it was packed and taken out in three batches before1952165438+1October 4, with a total of 67676 copies. The relevant departments of Lingnan University were merged into Sun Yat-sen University and other institutions of higher learning.
After two adjustments, the new teachers and students of Sun Yat-sen University come from nine different universities, including Lingnan University, South China United University, Guangdong Law School, Wuhan University, Hunan University, Guangxi University, Nanchang University, Huazhong Normal University and the former Sun Yat-sen University. 1954 public Guangdong Guanghua medical college merged with south China medical college to form a new south China medical college. 1996 began to recruit foreign students. 65438-0955, Lin Ke was appointed President and Party Secretary of South China Medical College. 1956 south China medical college was renamed Guangzhou medical college. 1996, the Ministry of Health sent a letter to confirm that there are 8 first-class professors, including Liang, Chen, Chen, Lin Shumo, Qin Guangyu, Zhong and Zhou Shoukai, and there are 0/5 second-class professors/kloc, and the teaching staff ranks first among medical colleges and universities in China. 1957 was renamed as Zhongshan medical college, and 196 1 was confirmed as a national key medical college directly under the Ministry of Health. 198 1 became one of the first units in China with the right to confer doctoral and master's degrees.
