University alliance originated from the "First-class University Construction Series Seminar" held by nine universities in the 985 Project. Project 985 is a systematic project, which started in May. 1998. Its goal is to give priority to some universities in Chinese mainland and become world-famous universities.
The first batch of 985 projects selected 9 universities as key support, with the goal of "creating a world-class university"; Subsequently, the 985 Project added 30 colleges and universities one after another, bringing the total number to 39. The newly added 30 colleges and universities were positioned as "creating world-renowned high-level universities".

"Nine-School Alliance" has opened up a new situation of talent training and played a demonstration and leading role in talent training in China;
After the alliance is established, "exchange students" will be extended to domestic universities. When an undergraduate student of an alliance university wants to take a course in another alliance university, he only needs to apply to the academic affairs office of the other university, and the other university will consider replying to his application according to the number of students and other factors. After the application is passed, the student can study in the other university and return to the original university after completing the credits. The original university recognizes his course scores and credits.
The alliance will promote teachers. For example, if a course in a university is not well taught, many students will apply for the best teachers in this course in nine universities, which will bring pressure to the teachers who teach this course and promote their improvement.
In addition, according to the "Nine Schools Alliance" agreement, each school encourages its own students to apply for graduate students in other universities in the alliance, and also encourages graduate students to pursue doctoral degrees in other universities in the alliance, which has a certain effect on solving the phenomenon of "inbreeding" in colleges and universities to some extent.
