First, the most basic function of a university is to train senior professionals for national construction. Since ancient times, schools have been places to impart knowledge and cultivate talents, and this function of universities is even more important.

2. Universities advocate scientific research, explore the essence of things and pursue truth. At present, one of the most important social functions of universities is to carry out scientific research, explore and understand unknown fields, explore objective truth, and provide basis for some major scientific research topics.

Thirdly, universities also undertake the social service function of exerting social influence and representing advanced social culture. It is an indispensable function of a university to spread new fields, new knowledge and new ideas to the society, guide social development and cultural progress, and improve the basic cultural quality of the whole people.

Another important function of universities is to inherit social civilization. Universities have the functions of preserving and inheriting social civilization, as well as constantly innovating, developing, absorbing and integrating human civilizations. Therefore, universities play a very important role in the inheritance of human civilization, and also affect the continuous development of civilization from generation to generation.

brief introduction

Although there are some problems in the idea of running a university in China, the outstanding problems that restrict the development of universities are still divorced from social reality, weak social service ability and little effect on the main battlefield of economic and social development.

In personnel training, we should take quality as our life, and on the basis of improving students' comprehensive quality, focus on improving practical ability and innovative and entrepreneurial spirit. In scientific research, the principle should be "indomitable spirit".
