There are many universities in Pujiang that are similar to the Tongqi University, such as Pujiang Normal University, Pujiang Science and Technology, Pujiang Finance, Pujiang Ocean University and other universities. If it is placed in some provinces, it will definitely need to support it. However, Pujiang City's resources are limited, and basically it can only ensure the investment of Zhendan and Pujiang Jiaotong University, as well as Pujiang University, Pujiang City-affiliated universities. Pujiang University is a merger of several unknown universities in Pujiang. Its original strength is in Pujiang's first-class high school.

It ranks the last among the schools, but with the continuous large investment of the Pujiang Municipal Government, Pujiang University has the largest and most beautiful campus among Pujiang universities. The school’s hardware facilities and treatment are also very good. The so-called money is easy to do, so it quickly began to catch up. Although it cannot catch up with the top universities, it can also rank among the middle reaches of first-tier universities. Its treatment is even envious of key universities such as Pujiang Normal University and Pujiang University of Science and Technology.

With the strength of Tongqi universities, it was able to compete for the top ten universities in the country in the past few years, but now it is already a bit difficult. The ranking will decline all the way and then be out of the top ten. Universities like Pujiang Normal University and Pujiang Science and Technology could have steadily ranked around 20. Pujiang Normal University is one of the strongest normal universities in the country, Pujiang Science and Technology was also Yu Liang in the first year of the Science and Technology University of China, Southern Science and Technology, and Northern Science and Technology. However, because there are too many famous schools in Pujiang City, they received too priority for financial support.

Beyond the back, the 985 project, which is the country's first-class higher education university, will also consider the balance between regions and provinces, so Pujiang Normal University and Pujiang Science and Technology were not selected. On the contrary, some merged universities in other places have not been very strong, but as the best schools in the province, they have received strong support from the province and the Ministry of Education, and some have successfully entered the 985. The development speed is fast, gradually catching up and even widening the gap with colleges such as Pujiang Science and Technology.

This is the situation facing Tongqi University now. The high-quality resources have been absorbed by the top two prestigious universities. Tongqi University, which ranked third, can only compete with Pujiang University. Pujiang Normal University is even worse, and they can't even compete with Pujiang University. Pujiang Normal University is even better. After all, it is one of the best normal universities in China. The country has a strong support for normal universities. Although it has not been included in the list of the first few phases of the 985 project, it finally got involved. Pujiang University is even worse. Pujiang University was once the strongest in the biochemistry major in China. Its predecessor was the Pujiang University of Chemical Engineering, which included the best chemical talents in the country. Even now, its biochemistry major is one of the best universities in China.

However, unlike the normal major, major schools in biology and chemistry are developing. Although Pujiang Science and Technology has a very good foundation, its resources are not as attractive as those of these famous schools, and the attractiveness of famous schools to talents is not comparable to that of Pujiang Science and Technology. Famous schools have good resources and good projects in the country, they often tend to give these famous schools. Even if Pujiang Science and Technology is not inferior to that of famous schools, their scientific research conditions will be better. With their reputation, their reputation is very attractive to talents. The talents of Pujiang Science and Technology will continue to move to these famous schools, and their professional advantages will become smaller and smaller.

Bao Feiyang said: "The strength of universities comes from two aspects: teaching and scientific research. Tongqi University has always been relatively strong in engineering. However, Pujiang Jiaotong University and Zhendan have also been developing comprehensively over the years, and they have more resources in the government..."

"Pingjing has included the expansion of the scale of higher education in the plan. After the implementation this year, although it has brought some problems and confusions, the benefits are also huge. With these benefits, I estimate that this policy will be implemented for a long time..." Bao Feiyang said with a smile.

Although the sharp increase in college students has brought some trouble to local and colleges, the management pressure on universities has increased, teaching facilities have become more tight, some equipment has to be overloaded, and some faculty and staff have a greater workload... But the benefits are also huge. Expanding enrollment and tuition increases have increased college income and more financial allocations, and college life has become easier, not as tight as before.

The large increase in students has also driven local consumption and has become a rare bright color in the economic winter.

This is only the first year. It is conceivable that when the scale of higher education continues to expand and the number of college students increases, the related changes will become even greater and the benefits will be more. In this case, from Pingjing to local governments, everyone will implement this policy.

"However, the sharp expansion of the scale of higher education in a short period of time will also bring some problems. The biggest problem is the decline in teaching quality and the decline in the value of college students..." Bao Feiyang said.

"The 211 Project, launched in 1995, is to improve the teaching quality, scientific research, management level and school management efficiency of universities, and to be able to build a number of schools, disciplines or majors close to or reach international first-class universities in the early 21st century. Now, after the scale of higher education has expanded, investment will increase on the one hand, and high-quality resources will be more concentrated in the top universities. After all, everyone is expanding. The strength of the top universities is stronger, the resources are better, and the expansion is faster. The scale of the top twenty universities doubles, which means that the quality of students in the original 21st to forty will decrease by 20 times compared to the original..."

Bao Feiyang smiled and shook his head: "Of course, I'm just a simple calculation, inaccurate, but this is the trend. Only the best students in the past can go to college, everyone can get a little bit, and the best students in the future will go to the best universities. It's difficult for ordinary universities to grab this part of the students."

Bao Feiyang said: "After the country's investment in higher education is expanded, it will definitely not be satisfied with the expansion of scale. The goal will not change. Now the higher education community is worried that the continuous expansion of enrollment will reduce the teaching quality of universities. Pingjing is also considering how to strengthen higher education institutions in this situation in the case of expanding the scale of higher education. It is likely to launch an enhanced version of the 211 project..."

Bao Feiyang said: "This enhanced 211 project is likely to only target leading universities, that is, the state and local governments increase their investment in leading universities, improve the teaching and scientific research capabilities of leading universities, and build leading universities into world-class universities. Ordinary universities are completely popular, and the best resources will accelerate the flow of leading universities. After all, even if the country is willing to invest money, there are only so many good higher education resources. It is impossible for everyone to raise their level out of thin air, so it is inevitable to build leading universities and build world-class universities. As far as I know, including Tongqi University, Zhendan University and Pujiang Jiaotong University are increasing their efforts to attract outstanding talents, right?"

Jiang Kaitai nodded with a wry smile: "The news about District Mayor Bao is really well-versed. Among the key universities in Pujiang, Pujiang Jiaotong University has received the most support, even surpassing Zhendan University. In order to introduce excellent teaching and scientific research talents, they have developed a new policy, and we must follow up, otherwise not only will it not be possible to recruit people, but the faculty and staff of their own school will also be volatile."

Although Zhendan is the top leader in Pujiang universities, Pujiang Jiaotong University has stronger engineering and easier engineering projects. What's more, Pingjing's head is from Pujiang Jiaotong University. Although Pujiang Jiaotong University can only be at the same level as Zhendan in terms of normal financial allocations, Pujiang Jiaotong University has received a greater inclination when it comes to scientific research projects, so Pujiang Jiaotong University has developed very fiercely in recent years, and it is very trending to enter the top three in the country.

"This is called moving the whole body with one move!"

Bao Feiyang said: "Pujiang Jiaotong University is moving, Zhendan and Tongqi University can only follow you. You are moving, and universities such as Pujiang Normal University and Pujiang Science and Technology will also follow you. Everyone must move, otherwise they can only watch outstanding talents flow to other universities! But excellent talents are always limited, and in the end, high-quality resources will still be concentrated in the top universities. Of course, they will not all go to the top universities. After all, the capacity of the top universities is also limited and the competition is more intense. Some people may choose a relaxed environment for other universities. The country will also make balanced arrangements in this regard, but this trend will not change."

Jiang Kaitai nodded: "The competition for the head will indeed be very fierce, but we both have our own advantages. What we need to consider now is how to expand our own advantages, and not let ourselves fall behind when resources are limited, take advantage of our own characteristics, and strive to make ourselves the head, so we don't have to worry about this head effect!"

Bao Feiyang nodded: "Tongqi University has strong strength in engineering, especially in the disciplines of architecture and machinery. Our Huixun District has more cooperation with the Institute of Construction and is also very pleasant. I think we can continue to increase and deepen cooperation in this regard. Our current planning in Huixun District, including the planning of the university town, is also the construction of the Institute of Construction of Tongqi University."
