After World War II, a set of practices of militaristic education was eliminated, institutions and unreasonable systems were adjusted, the word "imperial" in "Imperial University of Tokyo" was deleted, and the name of the earliest University of Tokyo was restored. After the reorganization, the University of Tokyo established a new basic department and a new Ministry of Education, and merged the affiliated medical professional department, No.1 High School and Tokyo High School. The original department has also divided into new departments, and a large number of research institutes and research centers have been established. Today, the University of Tokyo has become a university with 10 undergraduate departments, 1 1 graduate schools and 18. 1986, when some presidents and administrators of Asian universities voted for 10 world-famous universities, the University of Tokyo was selected as the only representative in Asia, which was the glory of the University of Tokyo and fully affirmed its academic level.

The University of Tokyo has a strong scientific research force and numerous institutions. * * * Institute for the whole school and even the whole country 12, Research Center 13.
As early as the Meiji period, the Institute of Medicine consisted of three parts: the Vaccine Institute, the Infectious Diseases Institute and the Serum Medicine Institute. The latter three institutes were merged into the Institute of Infectious Diseases and managed by the Ministry of the Interior. After the war, it was renamed the Institute of Medicine and placed under the jurisdiction of Neusoft University. It is a well-known research institute of Tokyo University and Japanese universities, focusing on the pathology and treatment of infectious diseases, cancer and other special diseases. The research contents include the characteristics of pathogens such as bacteria, viruses and parasites, the pathogenic mechanism, cytology and molecular biology of pathogenic organisms, the etiology, regularity and treatment of genetic diseases, the occurrence and development of cancer, anti-cancer means and a series of important theoretical and application problems in current medicine. * * * There are 25 research laboratories, including experimental animal breeding, animal pathogen inspection, microbial strain preservation, genetic code decoding, molecular disease research and other departments, as well as an affiliated hospital. Many of these staff members are famous for their excellent medical skills and successful research.

Among these research institutes, Cosmic Ray Institute, Nuclear Institute, Oceanography Institute and Physics Institute are all universal in China. In addition, the University of Tokyo has three large centers for national use:
The large computer center, which is said to be the largest computer center in the world, is equipped with eight computers.
The new M-200H electronic computer system has large capacity, complete peripheral equipment and strong time-sharing system capability. Directly supported by the Ministry of Education, it serves the universities under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Education, thus forming a Tokyo computer network centered on the University of Tokyo and coordinating the use and scheduling of computers. All university teachers and students in Tokyo are eligible to become users, which provides convenient conditions for university teaching and scientific research.
Dongda Literature Center, 1968, was renamed as "Academic Information Center" to collect information from all over the country.
Academic research information in colleges and universities provides services for academic information in colleges and universities.
The Climate System Research Center, which studies the climate system according to the climate model, has four key disciplines.
These state institutions, funded by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology, have updated their equipment, organized manpower, absorbed outsiders, including foreign researchers and teachers from other universities in China, opened their equipment to the outside world, and have actually become national scientific research centers.
In addition, there are comprehensive research archives, cryogenic center, isotope comprehensive center, atomic energy comprehensive research center, teaching computer center, environmental safety center, genetic laboratory, international student center, cutting-edge science and technology center, artificial physical engineering research center, medical care center and other departments.
According to the statistical data of1May, 1992, the University of Tokyo enrolled 3,638 undergraduates, and the ratio of the number of applicants to the number of enrolled students was 4.5: 1, and 44 students were specially admitted through non-examination. There are 1.670 students enrolled for master's degree, with an admission rate of 2.5: 1, and 937 students enrolled for doctoral degree, with an admission rate of1.4:1; Today's students are; Undergraduate students 16 134, graduate students108, international students 1554. To1April 1992, graduated from Tokyo * * * University197,419; Master's degrees were awarded to 30,970 people and doctor's degrees to 9,670 people. The old system 1 1, and the new system 1 person. There are also students from affiliated schools: School of Nursing 132, School of Midwifery 20; There are 356 secondary schools under the Ministry of Education; There are 344 affiliated high schools.
During the same period, there were 8,055 faculty members, with a total length of 1, 35 teaching assistants and 4,055 staff members (including administrators, technicians, nurses in medical centers, pharmacists, radiologists, clinical health testing technicians, nutritionists, etc. ) .3964 teachers, professors 1, 133, associate professors 1 083, lecturers 170, teaching assistants 1 578, and professors and associate professors account for 56% of the total number of teachers.
The University of Tokyo has a collection of 6,646, 133 volumes, of which 3,129,050 volumes are in libraries and information centers of more than 60 departments, research institutes and relevant departments. The central library has nearly 6,543,800 books and 38,600 periodicals, and the whole school orders nearly 200,000 new books every year. The school has three affiliated hospitals with complete disciplines; The affiliated hospital of the Ministry of Medicine, the affiliated branch of the Academy of Medical Sciences and the affiliated hospital have a total of 1246 beds.
The campus of the University of Tokyo is located in bunkyo-ku's hometown in Tokyo, covering an area of 40 square meters, where most of the institutions of the whole school are located. In addition, a new campus will be built in Komako, Muhei district, where the Correctional Services Department and some logistics facilities will be located. Affiliated schools, industrial research departments, experimental practice bases (such as farms, forest farms, earthquakes, volcanoes and astronomical observation stations) and dormitories for teachers and students are distributed all over the country. The location of the old school gate, the Zaohongmen of the original school district, was originally the place where the governors of the Edo era greeted their families, and the gate was painted vermilion. After the Tokyo earthquake and the destruction of World War II, 1949 was designated as a key cultural relic by the state. 199 1, decorated, very stylish. Now Red Gate has become synonymous with Tokyo University.
The University of Tokyo is the leading national university in Japan, and its finance is mainly supported by the government. 1979? /FONT & gt; 1980, the government allocated 80 billion yen to Neusoft, and it will increase year by year, with an annual budget exceeding 1000 billion yen. 199 1 year, the school's own income is 35.2.1300 million yen, and the income of affiliated hospitals accounts for 46.4%. Tuition fee is 23.6%; Discount and sale of school property, income from farms and forest farms, and income from external investigations and experiments account for 30%. In addition, research funds of 7.725 billion yen were obtained by applying for scientific research projects. The expenditure is * * *112.203 billion yen, and the expenses are as follows: University affiliated hospitals account for 20.4%; The running cost of the whole school is 49.5%; Institute16.1%; 7.5% for scientific research and 6.5% for equipment.
According to the School Education Law, the university establishes a Council as the highest authority of the school. The members of the board of directors are the general director, ministers of various disciplines, heads of directly affiliated departments (such as librarians, research directors, research center directors, dean of graduate schools) and two professors from each department. The procurator-general is the procurator-general and the legal representative, and the duties of the procurator-general and the principal are integrated. The duty of the Council is to consider, coordinate and decide on major issues of the school and supervise the work of the general manager. After the administrative work is examined and approved by the Legislative Council, it is handed over to the Chief Executive for implementation through the administrative department. The current chief executive is Dongda 3 1 Sir Ma Qiuteng. Each department has a professors' meeting, which is composed of all professors, and some faculty representatives are invited to participate, and the department heads are elected to decide some major issues in the department. The administrative management system of the school is: chief 1, without deputy. Through two special assistants in the general office, coordinate with the bureau of affairs, student affairs office, library, departments, research institutes and research centers. Bureau is the administrative center department of the whole school, which consists of planning department, affairs department, management department and equipment department. The government (in fact, the Ministry of Education) nominally does not interfere with the specific affairs of the school and lets the school run its own school. Due to the special status of Dongda University, in fact, the government will often send staff to the school department to strengthen the control of human rights and financial rights of the school to ensure the key leadership position of Dongda University.
Due to the complete disciplines, sufficient funds, neat teaching staff and high level of running some traditional disciplines, the teaching and research strength and level of the University of Tokyo are incomparable to other universities in Japan. In order to meet the challenge of the new technological revolution, the state is organizing several national universities and relevant departments to conduct joint research on several key projects at present and in 2 1 century. In this "key battle", the University of Tokyo undoubtedly played the role of "leader".
Research on Energy Development The Japanese government invests as much as 8 billion yen every year to several universities such as Dongda University, Kyoto University and Kyushu to conduct basic research on nuclear fusion in order to develop new energy sources. The Department of Science, Institute of Atomic Energy and Department of Engineering of Neusoft University jointly carried out theoretical and engineering research on accelerator science, elementary particles and atomic energy, and achieved initial results.
Aerospace research led by the Institute of Cosmic Ray of Neusoft University has made great progress in recent years. The Japanese government allocates more than10 billion yen for equipment manufacturing and testing every year. So far, 65,438+04 satellites and multiple launch vehicles have been launched to observe the aurora, detect the magnetic fields of planets and the earth, and carry out experiments in astrophysics and unmanned space laboratories.
The study of earthquakes and volcanoes is in a leading position in the world. The government allocates 2 billion yen every year for this comprehensive study, and has set up a national earthquake change data processing center in Dongda University, and set up observation stations with advanced equipment and reliable prediction in earthquake and volcano-prone areas all over the country.
Ocean Research 1967 Dongda Institute of Oceanography was built on a large-scale ocean survey ship, which carried out ocean survey and comprehensive ocean research, and then built a more advanced ship. In recent years, it has cooperated with American consortia to carry out deep-sea drilling, major marine crust composition, seabed ecology, seabed resources development and other fields. The Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology allocated funds to organize staff from universities such as Dongda University to participate in comprehensive scientific investigations in Antarctica for many times.
Cancer research as early as 1983, the Japanese government put forward the "Ten-year Plan for Cancer Research", in which universities such as Dongda University, Tohoku University and Osaka participated, and cooperated with relevant research institutions in the United States to focus on the causes, diagnosis methods and treatment methods of cancer. The research also involves biochemistry, genetics, nuclear physics and other disciplines, and the medical research of Dongda University is the backbone of this research.
Social science research is divided into theoretical research and comparative research (undertaken by the Institute of Social Sciences and the Institute of Oriental Culture). In addition, it focuses on the study of China. There are 9 departments in the Department of Oriental Culture Institute 12 that study China, and many departments and specialties are related to China from ancient times to China.
The University of Tokyo has trained a large number of celebrities since its establishment. It is said that graduates from the University of Tokyo account for more than half of contemporary Japanese celebrities.
Political circles are typical. People say that Dongda is a hotbed of bureaucrats and a place where prime minister talents occur. The people trained by Dongda hold the political and economic lifeline of Japan. Literally, these statements seem exaggerated, and they are indeed true! Of the 40,000 law graduates alone, 2,700 have worked in officialdom. From 192 1 to 1945, the Japanese prime minister 1/3 came from Neusoft University. After the war, except for a few, the rest were taken over by Neusoft people. They are: Uchida Haraya, Kato Takayuki, Ruogui Reijiro, Hamaguchi Yukio, Hirota Hiroshi, Hirashima Ichiro, Mihara Keishiro, Goto Fumio, Harakuei (the former law school under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs was merged into the Law Department of Neusoft University), Yoshitomo, Katayama Tetsu, Hitoshi Ashida, Ichiro Hatoyama, Kishi Nobusuke, Eisaku Satō, Fukuda Takeo, Nakasone Yasuhiro and Miyamoto. Among the opposition parties are Kenji Miyamoto, Tetsuo Fukuda, Yasuhiro Tanaka, the confidant of the Socialist Party, and Mei Eda, all from. Among social activists, "Lu Xun Tong" Takeuchi is good. He once served as the vice president of the China-Japan Friendship Association and so on.
Scientists include Kantaro Nagaoka (later the first president of Osaka University), Takagi, Hirasaburo Kondo, Yasuhiko Guping, Shigeyoshi Mao Cheng and other well-known scholars. Historian Kiyoshi Inoue, economist David Ouchi.
There are also many talents in literature and art. The great writer Yasunari Nakagawa won the Nobel Prize in Literature, and Natsume Soseki, Mori Yoshiro, Kafka and Kanzawa ryunami are all world-famous. Shiga Naoya, Kan Kikuchi and Ryunosuke Akutagawa are representatives of the North China School, and the Akutagawa Literature Prize named after the latter is a famous Japanese literature prize. Masaoka Shiki, the authority of short songs and haiku, the poet Min, the writers Tan Yixiong, ODA Shi, Akihito Runichiro are all very popular artists in China. In addition, there are actors So Yamamura, K?Ji Nanbara, Torahiko Hamada, singer Kato Denji and versatile Hashimoto Kiyoshi.
Most of the people who hold important positions such as chairman, general manager and minister in Japan's larger companies are graduates from old imperial universities. According to the statistics of companies with assets of more than 654.38 billion yen, the graduates of Dongda University rank first among these companies, so there is a saying that "Dongda people hold the political and economic lifeline of the country".
The strong academic strength of Dongda University can also be seen from the award-winning situation of the "Japanese Bachelor's Academy Award", which is second only to the Nobel Prize. The difference between this award and the Nobel Prize is that it contains 12 disciplines of natural science, humanities and social science, from which the comprehensive academic advantages of a school can be measured. From the analysis of the universities where the winners came from, Dongda University dominated in the 1920s, and its winners accounted for 73. 1% of the total winners in China. In the 1930s and 1950s, although several other established imperial universities also shared their achievements, the number of winners of Dongda University still accounted for 64. 1%. After the 1950s, hundreds of universities competed with it, but the award-winning rate of Dongda University was still around 50%, and it held the top spot. 12 discipline, all gold medals are monopolized by Dongda people; Except economics, the award-winning rate of other disciplines is around 50%, among which mathematics, physics, philosophy, law and political science all exceed 70%. Among the national winners, there are 205 people who have worked or are working in Dongda University, accounting for 35.8% of the total. Most of them (93.2%) are graduates of Dongda University. They have made due contributions to their alma mater and added a glorious page to the history of Dongda University. In addition, there are many winners of Dongda University who enter other universities after graduation and win honors for other schools.
The University of Tokyo has attracted worldwide attention for its high-quality school-running level and first-class academic status, and has now become an academic exchange center at home and abroad in Japan. In terms of international exchange, as of May, 1992 and 1554 international students from 59 countries and regions have come to study in NTU. Dongda has also sent 2 14 international students to 29 countries and regions in the world, of which 182 are studying for degrees, most of them went to industrialized countries, and only Britain, the United States, Germany and France accounted for 70%. It has signed inter-school academic exchange agreements with 36 universities in 0/8 countries and regions around the world, including Peking University, Tsinghua University, Fudan University and China Academy of Social Sciences in China. Students from 13 universities in 8 countries exchange with each other. 14 universities in 8 countries, including University of Science and Technology of China, Beijing Forestry University and Dalian University of Technology, carry out academic exchanges between individual colleges and departments. In addition, 65,438+0,065,438+09 foreign researchers and visiting scholars were accepted, mostly from China, South Korea, Thailand, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Britain, France, Germany and the former Soviet Union in Europe, and the United States and Canada in North America.
In terms of domestic exchanges, 692 people from universities and research departments have been accepted, of which 42 are studying for degrees; 52 people were sent by Dongda University for further study and entrusted to other institutions for training. Graduate schools exchange graduate students with other universities: receiving 37 students and sending 18 students.
Tokyo University is a well-known university with a long history, which maintains the characteristics of traditional universities: multi-college and multi-discipline. Now almost all the subjects in the school are old subjects, and the level of running a school is very high. Master's and doctor's degrees can be awarded in almost all disciplines. They are cautious about new disciplines and teaching reform. They think it is necessary to keep the tradition of the school and not to follow others' advice, so as to run a high-quality school with its own characteristics. "Winning by quality" and "taking quantity by quality" are the educational goals of Dongda University. The faculty and staff of the whole school believe that maintaining the stability and high academic level of the school is indispensable to safeguarding the dignity and honor of the school. Therefore, they pay attention to high quality when cultivating talents. In order to achieve this goal, they have taken some measures: in order to control the size of the school, it is not appropriate to make the school too large to maintain the high efficiency of the school operation. At present, the number of undergraduate students has been controlled at around10.5 million; It is emphasized that universities should carry out scientific research and produce more world-leading academic achievements while doing a good job in teaching. Carefully select and build a team of high-quality professors; Emphasis is placed on basic knowledge education in teaching, and it is stipulated that four-year colleges must have two years to study the compulsory basic courses and some professional basic courses of the Department of Orthopaedics; Establish a tutor system for graduate students, be strict with graduate students, be full of love, give careful guidance and so on.
In order to adapt to the development of the situation, Dongda University is now planning education reform. For example, in April 1992, the Ministry of Science and the Ministry of Engineering prepared to carry out institutional reform to change the tendency of graduate schools to rely on departments in terms of facilities, budget, teachers, etc., so that graduate schools can have personnel rights and budget rights, and teachers can be directly managed by graduate schools, and the "lecture" previously composed of a few professors, associate professors and assistants will be changed into a big lecture composed of many professors and associate professors. This reform will have a far-reaching impact on the integration, intersection and infiltration of disciplines and the strengthening of scientific research. In addition, the idea of "turning Dongda into a graduate school" is to establish an undergraduate core. /FONT & gt; The appeal of the 6-7 year consistent training system has also been echoed by most people in the school. Take 199 1 as an example, among the undergraduate graduates, 53.5% are employed; 37.6% went to graduate school. Such a high proportion in Japan can't help but make people sit up and take notice.
In Japan, students are lucky enough to study at Dongda University, and teachers are proud to teach at Dongda University. This trend spread in the campus of Dongda University and became the invisible cohesion of Dongda University. Today, the University of Tokyo has great attraction not only to China, but also to the world. Therefore, it is well-deserved as a world-class university.
