Netizens asked:
In recent years, all provinces in the country are attaching great importance to the construction of aviation universities, such as the new Sino-French Aviation University in Zhejiang, Shandong Binzhou University renamed Shandong Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Henan is actively promoting the Zhengzhou Institute of Aeronautical Industry Management to be renamed Henan University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, and the competition among aviation colleges and universities is becoming more and more fierce. However, Jiangxi Province, as the birthplace of China's first aircraft, is facing the dilemma of a contradiction between the vigorous development of the aviation industry and the weak resources of local aviation higher education. At present, Jiangxi Province has a large number of aviation colleges and universities at all levels, such as Nanchang Hangkong University, Jiangxi Flight College, Jiangxi Aviation Vocational and Technical College, Nanchang Institute of Technology, etc., the province's aviation university resources are scattered and weak, and the aviation science and technology majors of various aviation colleges and universities are ranked in the lower middle of the country, and there is not even any relevant doctoral program. Jiangxi Province has included the aviation industry in the 2 + 6 + N plan, at the same time, the recent news of the approval of Jiangxi Flight Academy has caused heated discussions on various short platforms, and a large number of people generally reflect why they do not integrate aviation higher education resources in the province, which also reflects the eager expectations of the people of Jiangxi Province for a university that can match the current situation of Jiangxi aviation development, so there are the following suggestions:
Carry out a high degree of integration of aviation higher education resources in the province, and focus on building a high-end and high-level aviation college according to the advantages and characteristics of Jiangxi aviation research. Actively introduce full-time aerospace academicians to serve as university leaders, and make concentrated breakthroughs in aerospace doctoral programs, large platforms, and large awards. Promote Nanchang Hangkong University to enhance the professional strength of aeronautics and astronautics science and technology, and promote Nanchang Hangkong University to change its name to Jiangxi University of Aeronautics and Astronautics. In the Honggutan District of Nanchang City and other convenient addresses, the construction of the Air and Space Museum, or can be directly built in the aviation university, to promote it to become an important business card and highlight of the development of Jiangxi's cultural tourism. In the Jiangxi Flight Conference, Jiangxi Aviation Colleges and Universities will be given more display stages. Strengthen production, education and research, so that aviation colleges and universities and aviation enterprises and institutions are more closely connected;Help aviation colleges and universities to introduce more high-quality talents.
Jiangxi Provincial Party Committee Minsheng Channel Studio replied:
On the basis of your message, after preliminary research, we will set up the Jiangxi Aviation Museum on the integration of resources, upgrade the formation of the aviation industry science and technology innovation consortium, and give full play to the integration effect of "government, industry, academia and research".Work suggestions were put forward to support Nanchang Hangkong University's application for a doctorate and strengthen the construction of double first-class disciplinesRecently, it has been reported to the leading comrades and forwarded to the provincial government and other relevant departments. We will inform you further when there is a follow-up development.

In January 2022, the Jiangxi Provincial Department of Education announced the list of new doctoral and master's degree-granting units in the "14th Five-Year Plan".Nanchang Hangkong University was included in the provincial "14th Five-Year Plan" doctoral degree awarding project construction unitIt will focus on supporting the university to participate in the next round of applications for new national doctorate-granting units, and vigorously guide and support it to strengthen the construction of connotation, refine the characteristics of disciplines, make up for shortcomings, and enhance its own competitiveness.
In October last year, in the face of the severe situation in the context of many "double first-class" universities rushing to the aerospace industryThe extreme importance and urgency of the discipline of aeronautics and astronautics science and technologyAfter careful consideration, the Party Committee of the school decided to establish the Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics. The Faculty of Aeronautics and Astronautics was establishedIt aims to further strengthen the construction of discipline connotation, stimulate the endogenous power of discipline, form discipline characteristic advantages, and help the high-quality development of disciplines of Nanchang Hangkong University through the integration of discipline resources and overall planning and management.
