Strength analysis of two universities;
The fourth round of subject evaluation is evaluated by the Ministry of Education, and it is still very authoritative. Judging from the situation of the two universities, Southern Medical University has surpassed Guangzhou Medical University in both background and strength. The clinical medicine of Southern Medical University is only one of many strong disciplines, but its strength also exceeds the ace clinical medicine of Guangzhou Medical University.
The investment score of Guangzhou Medical University in Zhejiang is not low, but the investment score is also lower than that of Southern Medical University when the enrollment is much lower than that of Southern Medical University, and the difference in the investment score of clinical medicine specialty is as much as 13.
It can be seen that when the two universities were not included in the "double first-class", Guangdong Medical University was not as good as Southern Medical University in terms of strength and reputation. However, now Guangzhou Medical University has been included in the "double first-class", and its future development may accelerate to catch up with Southern Medical University. In 2022, Guangzhou Medical University's investment score is expected to be the same as that of Southern Medical University!
