2 1 1 What are the eight grades of universities?
First of all, we should make it clear that the "eight grades" come from the people, and the classification method mainly refers to the university level, the specific administrative level and the priority of national construction. It's not official, but it's still of great reference value.
According to the statement, this paper summarizes by classification, and lists the construction projects that colleges and universities are currently participating in and their ownership for the convenience of students' reference, which are divided into eight levels as follows:
The first file is the university with the highest priority of educational resources.
Specific institutions (2): Tsinghua University, Peking University;
College level: 2 1 1, 985, under the central government, double-class A, strong foundation plan;
Reason: Everyone should have no objection to the top universities. As a top university in China, natural education resources are also the most concentrated.
Second, the national key construction universities.
Specific institutions (7): Fudan University, Shanghai Jiaotong University, China University of Science and Technology, Nanjing University, Zhejiang University, Harbin Institute of Technology, Xi Jiaotong University;
College level: 2 1 1, 985, under the central government, double-class A, strong foundation plan;
Reason: Although they are equally excellent, we can see the gap between the Seventh National Congress and Peking University Tsinghua from the departmental budget for many years. However, as the universities selected for the "985 Project" in the same year, the strength of these seven universities is closely following Peking University Tsinghua.
The third file, the rest of the original "deputy ministerial" colleges and universities.
Representative institutions (***23): China Renmin University, China Agricultural University, Sichuan University and Xiamen University;
College level: 2 1 1, 985, under the central government, double-class A, strong foundation plan;
Reason: From the time point of view, the other 23 former "deputy ministerial level" universities (including 1 former deputy corps level) were selected into the "985 Project" after 1999, so the construction priority should be lower than the first 9 universities.
The fourth gear, the original "985 college main hall".
Representative institutions (***7): Minzu University of China, Hunan University and Northeastern University;
College level: 2 1 1, 985, which belongs to the central government and is jointly established by two first-class universities;
Reason: Being both "985 Project" universities, the original administrative level of these seven universities was "official department level". From this level on, some schools were not selected into the strong foundation plan, or even "double A" universities, and thus were classified into one category.
The fifth file is "985 Platform" or "Characteristic 985" University.
Representative institutions (***36): Beijing Jiaotong University, University of Science and Technology Beijing, beijing university of chemical technology;
College level: 2 1 1, under the central government, building universities with double first-class disciplines;
Reason: These universities were selected into the "985 Engineering Advantage Discipline Innovation Platform", which is also a "985 University" that is not recognized by the people at present, but they are still top universities in the professional field, and their strength should not be underestimated.
The sixth file, the rest of the universities directly under the central government.
Representative institutions (***9): Beijing Foreign Studies University, Beijing Sport University, Donghua University;
College level: 2 1 1, under the central government, building universities with double first-class disciplines;
Reason: In fact, these universities are very similar to the five-level institutions, which are not only deployed by the central government, but also the first selected institutions of "2 1 1 Project". However, due to its confidential nature or the type of institutions, its comprehensive strength and application enthusiasm are lower than those of five-level institutions.
In the seventh file, the first batch of non-affiliated universities were selected.
Representative institutions (23): Suzhou University, Shanghai University and Yanbian University;
College level: 2 1 1, a "double-class" university jointly established by provincial departments;
Reason: These universities were also selected as the first batch of "2 1 1 Project", but they all belong to local governments and are built for the province. However, there are currently "double B-class" universities in this grade, which are equivalent to some universities in the fourth grade.
In the eighth gear, finally select 2 1 1 institution.
Specific institutions (5): Hainan University, Qinghai University, Ningxia University, Shihezi University, Tibet University;
College level: 2 1 1, building a university with two first-class disciplines;
Reason: The last five universities are considered as 2 1 1 universities with the nature of national concern, and judging from the selection time, these five universities are also the last institutions selected as "2 1 1 project" (the selection time was 2008).
As mentioned in the article, because it is a folk grade, the reference standards are actually not completely scientific, and many standards, including administrative grades, have been cancelled and cannot be used as a reference when applying for the exam.
Among them, Suzhou University, Yunnan University and other institutions in the seventh file not only won the high recognition of the "double first-class" project of the Ministry of Education, but also surpassed many "985 Project" universities in the ranking of soft subjects, pointing directly to the peak of domestic ranking.
