How many levels are there in the university?
Universities are divided into the following four grades:

1, the first type of undergraduate course refers to the national key universities, the undergraduate colleges that entered the 2 1 1 project, other subordinate universities and provincial key undergraduate colleges designated by the provinces, commonly known as one book, and the scores drawn are called one line, also called the key line;

2. The second type of undergraduate course is an ordinary undergraduate course for national enrollment, which is one grade lower, commonly known as two books, and is admitted in the second batch;

3. The third category of undergraduate courses refers to private undergraduate courses, and there are also some independent colleges under key universities, mainly for enrollment in the province. It is the lowest undergraduate college. Most of these schools are upgraded from the original colleges, commonly known as the three colleges.

4. College refers to university education, which is an important part of higher education and one of the academic levels of universities. In China, specialized education is mainly undertaken by higher vocational colleges, and some undergraduate colleges also offer specialized courses. College diploma is not issued, only college diploma is issued.

As follows:

1. Universities (colleges) are a kind of schools that implement higher education, including comprehensive universities, junior colleges and junior colleges. It is an organization with unique functions, an institution of higher learning that inherits, studies, integrates and innovates advanced academic knowledge, and is interrelated with social, economic and political institutions.

2. It is not only the product of the development of human culture to a certain stage, but also a unique culture gradually formed on the basis of long-term school-running practice through historical accumulation, self-efforts and external environmental influence. Universities have a history of thousands of years. At first, it mainly developed from Germany, Britain and other countries.

3. Modern universities in China originated in the west, and western modern universities gradually evolved from European medieval universities, British universities, German universities, and then American universities. No matter what era the university is, it is a creative inheritance rather than a denial of previous universities.

The word "university" comes from the Latin Universitas Magistorum et Scholarum, which roughly means "the community of teachers and scholars". The modern university system has always been in the University of Eugen in the Middle Ages, which was established and evolved from the cathedral school in Italy in the Middle Ages.

5. According to the list of national colleges and universities released by the Ministry of Education on September 30th, 20021,there are 30 12 colleges and universities in China, including 2,756 colleges and universities (undergraduate 1.270, junior college 1.486) and 256 adult colleges and universities.

6. Modern universities directly originated from European medieval universities in 12 and 13 centuries. Ancient Egypt, India and China were the cradles of higher education, and ancient Greece, Rome, Byzantium and Arab countries all established relatively perfect and developed higher education systems. Although many educational historians also call these local institutions of higher learning universities, strictly speaking, they are not real universities.
