Project 211 and Project 985, what do you mean?

In order to meet the challenges of the world's new technological revolution and face the 21st century, the 211 project is China's leading government and the local forces in all aspects, focusing on the construction of about 100 institutions of higher learning and a number of key disciplines and majors in phases and batches, and by the year 2000, there will be a great improvement in the quality of education, scientific research, management level and school-running efficiency, and there will be significant progress in educational reform, and strive to have a number of institutions of higher learning and disciplines at the beginning of the 21st century. The major is close to or has reached the level of a world-class university. The "211 Project" is the largest key construction project in the field of higher education officially approved by the state since the founding of the People's Republic of China, a development project of higher education during the period of the Ninth Five-Year Plan, and a systematic reform project of higher education.

These colleges and universities are relatively key universities, so they are admitted according to the first line of the corresponding provinces and cities, or they are more well-known than the same schools. Moreover, some units recruit people or schools will consider graduates from these schools when recruiting graduate students.

Project 985 and Project 211 are:

Engineering: It is a construction project to realize modernization and establish a number of first-class universities with the world's advanced level. In 1999, the Ministry of Education approved the "Action Plan for the Revitalization of Education in the 21st Century", and the "985 Project" was officially launched.

Project: "211 Project", that is, facing the 21st century, focusing on the construction of about 100 colleges and universities and a number of key disciplines, was officially launched in November 1995 after approval.

The "211 Project" is a construction project that focuses on the construction of about 100 colleges and universities and a number of key disciplines for the 21st century; The "985 Project" is a higher education construction project implemented by China for the construction of several world-class universities and a number of internationally renowned high-level research-oriented universities.

The "211 Project" is the largest and highest-level key construction work in the field of higher education initiated by the state since the founding of the People's Republic of China, and is a major measure for China to implement the strategy of "rejuvenating the country through science and education", and a major decision for the development of higher education made by the Chinese nation in the face of the situation at home and abroad in China at the turn of the century.

The implementation of the "985 Project" is a major policy decision made by the Communist Party of China and the People's Republic of China at the turn of the century.

On May 4, 1998, at the celebration of the 100th anniversary of the founding of Peking University, the then **** announced to the whole society on behalf of the Communist Party of China and the ** people of the People's Republic of China: "In order to achieve modernization, China must have a number of first-class universities with the world's advanced level. ”

In 1999, the Ministry of Education approved the "Action Plan for the Revitalization of Education in the 21st Century", and the "985 Project" was officially launched.

"211" University and "985" University are both national construction university projects, and "211" University was determined earlier than "985" University.

At the beginning of 1993, the State established a number of key universities to further promote education and revitalize the country. Because it is the first educational project in the 21st century and the country, it is called the "211" project. There is also a saying that the idea of the first country was to establish 100 key universities, so the last 1 has become the meaning of 100 universities, and in the 21st century, it is to build 100 key universities.

"985" was proposed in May 1998, at a time when the country had reached a new stage of development. The education program aims to create a number of world-class higher education institutions and will raise the level of universities relative to "2111", at the beginning, only 9 schools were selected for the shortlist, and with the development of China, 30 new universities were added.

At present, there are 39 985 universities, and since there are less than 100, to a certain extent, 985 universities are one level higher than 211 universities.

211 Project: also known as "211 Project" universities, "211" universities, "21 represents the 21st century, and the following 1 represents 100", that is, about 100 key universities will be built for the 21st century. A total of 112 institutes.

985 Project: also known as "985 Project" universities and "985" universities, "98 represents 1998, and the next 5 represents May", that is, the construction of several internationally renowned research universities was proposed in May 1998. A total of 39 institutes.

Although both are key universities, but the difference is still quite big, 985 University can obtain much more resources than 211 University, such as the top students plus the most preferential policies, the most teaching funds and the degree of social attention, so only from the aspect of teaching funds, 985 University has a great advantage, 985 University will have a relatively higher social status.

The 985 Project refers to the major decision made by the state at the turn of the century to build a first-class university with the world's advanced level proposed by the state at the turn of the century, and the universities selected for this project are called 985 universities.

The 211 Project refers to the construction of about 100 colleges and universities and a number of key disciplines for the 21st century. These two major projects in the field of higher education construction have played an important role in the development of China's higher education.

If you want to compare which is better, 985 University or 211 Engineering University, I think 985 University is better for the following reasons:

The level of education of the university is higher than that of 211 universities.

985 universities include China's top universities, such as Tsinghua University, Peking University, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, University of Science and Technology of China, Zhejiang University, etc., which support the four pillars of China's higher education and are the main force for China's higher education to become a world-class university. The 211 University includes some local colleges and universities, and the level of education is obviously not as good as that of the 985 University.

The university has a higher social reputation than 211 universities.

From the perspective of social status, 985 University is a cut higher than 211 University, because 985 University itself has a small number, and it is difficult to be admitted after applying for the examination.

The comprehensive strength of the university is stronger than that of 211 universities.

All 985 universities have been selected for the Double First-Class University Program, while some 211 universities have not been selected for the Double First-Class Construction Universities, and even the Double First-Class Construction Discipline Universities have not been selected. It can be seen that, on the whole, 985 universities are obviously stronger than 211 universities. In addition, the comprehensive strength is also reflected in the annual selection of the three national science and technology awards, various talent plans, and natural science projects.

In these areas, 985 universities are much stronger than 211 universities.

985 universities are all 211 universities, 985 universities are world-class universities, and 211 universities are world-class discipline construction universities.
