Double first-class universities are not 985 and 2 1 1. 985,211,only some of these major universities belong to double-class universities, not all of them. The so-called double first-class universities refer to building world-class schools and universities with first-class disciplines and entering the forefront of the world. There are many top universities in China.

"Double first-class" refers to the construction of world-class universities and disciplines. The difference between 985 and 2 1 1 is that 985, 2 1 1 focus on the evaluation of universities, while "double-class" focuses on the evaluation of disciplines. Whether it's the 39 universities of the "985 Project" (including the National University of Defense Technology) or the "2 1 Project" 100 universities, they are all based on the overall evaluation of the school's comprehensive strength.

Although there have been national key first-class disciplines and two disciplines's evaluation before, the society's overall cognition of a university is still based on "brand" rather than disciplines, with little influence.

There is a list of "first-class universities" (137) and "first-class universities" (42). That is to say, first, whether a university has several strong disciplines (majors), and then evaluate the strength of a university mainly according to the comprehensive strength of disciplines.

Double first-class universities have high gold content. "Double First-class" is an important strategic decision made by the Central Committee and the State Council, and it is also another national strategy to improve the comprehensive strength and international competitiveness of education after "2 1 1 Project" and "985 Project".

The overall goal of "double first-class" construction is that by 2030, more universities and disciplines will enter the world-class ranks, several universities will enter the forefront of world-class universities, and a number of disciplines will enter the forefront of world-class disciplines, and the overall strength of higher education will be significantly improved; By the middle of 2 1 century, the number and strength of first-class universities and first-class disciplines have entered the forefront of the world and basically become a powerful country in higher education.

After the cancellation of the "2 1 1" and "985" projects, in the construction of "first-class universities and first-class disciplines" (double-class), the financial allocation system for higher education will take a more open and competitive performance evaluation system as a lever, establish an incentive and restraint mechanism, encourage fair competition, strengthen management by objectives, highlight the construction effectiveness, and be conducive to the construction of innovative university groups.
