Chongqing Medical University is better. These two medical universities are not in the same class at all. Chongqing Medical University is much better in terms of its reputation, historical background and discipline construction.
Heavy medicine is a key university. Southwest medicine is two books. Chongqing Medical College was the name of Chongyi before it was renamed. Southwest Medical College, formerly known as South Sichuan Health School. Heavy medical care is in Chongqing urban area. Southwest Medical Center is located in Luzhou. One is located in a second-tier city. A village on the 18th line. It is not a level institution at all, so there is no comparability.
As can be seen from the results of the fourth round of subject evaluation, the gap is obvious. Only the clinical medicine of Southwest Medical University got C- and the clinical medicine of Chongqing Medical University got B+. At the same time, Chongqing Medical University also made a list of basic medicine, pharmacy, nursing, stomatology, public health and preventive medicine.
The gap can also be found from the location and influence of the school. Although the name of Southwest Medical University looks very high, after all, "Southwest" includes "Chongqing", but Southwest Medical University is located in Luzhou, Sichuan, and its predecessor is "Luzhou Medical College". Chongqing Medical University is located in Chongqing University Town, which is in the core area of Western Science City.
In 2020, the admission score of Chongqing Medical University surpassed that of Chongqing University as a whole, which was the highest in Chongqing. At the same time, Chongqing Medical University may be the third "double first-class" university in Chongqing. The Children's Hospital affiliated to Chongqing Medical University ranks in the top two in China, which was unexpected by Southwest Medical University. So I think Southwest Medical University can only achieve the strength of Chongqing Medical University in the dreams of a few people.
How many doctoral programs are there in Chongqing Medical University? Southwest medical university just passed a clinical medicine a few days ago! Chongqing Medical University's pediatrics can rank among the top three in the country, while Southwest Medical University doesn't even have the top three disciplines in the southwest. Many netizens said that if Southwest Medical University moved from Luzhou to Chengdu, it would surpass Chongqing Medical University. Anyway, I don't think it will change their ranking even if they move in the next 20 years. what do you think?
