Nankai University, as one of the first schools selected by the Ministry of Education for the "Experimental Plan for Training Top-notch Students in Basic Sciences", established Boling College of Nankai University in 2009, offering Boling classes in mathematics, physics, chemistry and biological sciences, and implementing the "Experimental Plan for Training Top-notch Students in Basic Sciences".
Biology Bo-ling class is set up on a small scale to recruit outstanding students with strong interest in basic biology (secondary selection after admission, with about 20 students enrolled each time), according to the new school-running mode and training scheme.
Through small class teaching, we can strengthen the interaction between teachers and students, stimulate students' active learning ability in all directions, strengthen international exchanges and scientific research training, and cultivate top students in basic biology with good foundation, strong innovation ability and high quality, so that they can become outstanding talents with international competitiveness after completing the whole higher education.
In the process of training, the dynamic entry and exit mechanism is adopted, and many inspections and selections are carried out to achieve the purpose of effectively selecting outstanding students. The college has set up a system of "small class tutor" and "dormitory tutor", and each small class (about 12 people) is equipped with a teacher (mostly a professor and doctoral tutor) as a small class tutor.
Each dormitory is equipped with a student backbone as a "dormitory tutor" to provide guidance for students' study and life on campus, especially face-to-face guidance on systematic learning and knowledge mastery and which related courses to take. While strictly controlling the teaching quality, the college actively organizes colorful student activities to expand students' comprehensive quality.
Over the past few years, 20 10 biological science league branch and biotechnology league branch have been rated as "Top Ten Red Flag League Branch of Nankai University" and "Red Flag Class League Branch of Nankai University" respectively, and 20101undergraduate joint party branch has been rated as "Red Flag Student Party Branch of Nankai University" and so on.
A series of student activities organized by the School of Life Sciences, such as Nankai University Sports Festival, Career Navigation Course, Student Amateur Party School, Student League School, etc., have achieved remarkable results and have been publicized and reported by relevant news media in Tianjin for many times.
Strengthening academic exchanges and cooperation with famous foreign universities and scientific research institutions is an important way to promote the development of the college.
Universities and scientific research institutions in many countries, such as Japan, have established close cooperative relations, and have been funded by the Ministry of Education and the Bureau of Foreign Experts Affairs' "Academic Innovation and Intelligence Introduction Plan for Colleges and Universities". Taking the opportunity of building an academic innovation and intelligence introduction base, famous biologists at home and abroad are invited to give lectures regularly, and large-scale academic exchange meetings are held to enhance the academic innovation ability and comprehensive competitiveness of the college.
The development and opening up of Tianjin Binhai New Area has been incorporated into the national development strategy, and the establishment of the International Biomedical Joint Research Institute has provided valuable opportunities for the development of life science and biomedical industry.
The School of Life Sciences of Nankai University will actively participate in the development and opening up of Binhai New Area, actively serve the economic and social development of Tianjin, continuously consolidate and strengthen discipline characteristics, improve the level of teaching and scientific research and the quality of personnel training, and strive to build our college into a leading domestic and internationally renowned high-level college.
