Colleges and universities are places where college students can give wings. It is also a fertile ground for providing talents for the city where it is located.
The competition of the city, in the final analysis, is the competition of talents, and the most direct talent is the resources of a city's colleges and universities.
A news that "the construction of Xiangshan University Town has started and the construction of the public training base has recently caused heated discussions on the Internet, with some people excited, some people wondering, and more ...... want to know more about it
Where is the location of the university town?
Which colleges and universities will be relocated to the university town?
Why was this college town built?
What benefits can a university town bring to Pingdingshan?
After many inquiries and exchanges, consulting information and materials, combined with their own views, the author and netizens share the above questions and topics.
Where is the University Town of Xiangshan built?
Xiangshan University Town involves two districts, Xinhua and Xincheng, and the general scope should be east to West Ring Road, west to Meiyuan Road, south to Hubin Road, and north to Pingmei Railway Line. This area includes two universities, Henan University of Urban Construction and Pingdingshan University. The Xiangshan University Town Pilot Zone is also within this range.

However, the location of the "pioneer area" of the university town is in Xinhua District, specifically in the vast area east of Longmen Avenue, west of Xinxing Road, north of Zhanhe, and south of Pingmei Minmine.
Master plan of the University Town Pilot Zone
In the future, if the construction of the university town pilot area can be rolled out, the areas on the east and west sides of the pilot area may also be "absorbed".
The public training base, which was built on December 22, is located in the southern area of the university town, covering an area of about 60 acres, which is a very small part of the entire university town.
However, the construction of this public training base is of great significance, it is a landmark project of Baiguihu Science and Technology Innovation City and Xiangshan University Town with a high standard start and substantial start, and it is also the first project to be built in Xiangshan University Town.

Location map of the training baseThis training base is divided into two phases. The construction is the first phase of the project, with a total construction area of more than 20,000 square meters and a total investment of about 100 million yuan, which is expected to be completed and put into use in June 2026.

Renderings of the training base 2.
The function of the base is positioned as "two parks, five platforms, and ten centers".
The "two parks" are the provincial human resource service industrial park and the provincial business incubation park.
The "five platforms" are the public training platform, the skilled talent training platform, the skills competition platform, the skill level evaluation platform, and the employment and entrepreneurship service platform.
The "Ten Centers" are the public training center for energy, chemical industry and nylon new materials, the public training center for advanced equipment manufacturing, the public training center for vehicle manufacturing and maintenance, the public training center for intelligent construction, the public training center for ceramic manufacturing and technology, the public training center for electrical electronics and intelligent manufacturing, the public training center for cloud computing communication and information technology, the public training center for modern agriculture, the public training center for cultural tourism and health care, and the public training center for modern service industry (restaurant).
What is the relationship between the Science and Technology Innovation City and the University City?
Some attentive netizens found that on the background curtain of the rostrum of the groundbreaking ceremony of the public training base and on the door of the construction site, it was displayed that "Baiguihu Science and Technology Innovation City Pingdingshan City Public Training Base", since the training base is an integral part of Xiangshan University City, then, what is the relationship between Xiangshan University Town and Baiguihu Science and Technology Innovation City?
At the gate of the training base project, we have to talk about what is going on in Baiguihu Science and Technology Innovation City.
According to the idea of the Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal Government, the city will plan to build a 59-square-kilometer Baiguihu Science and Technology Innovation City in accordance with the spatial pattern of "one core, two districts, one ring and two belts".
"One core", that is, the science and technology innovation integration center, that is, Huashan Wisdom Island, through the gathering of scientific research institutions, innovation teams, configuration of shared laboratories, science and technology market, high-end conference hotels, etc., to create a set of science and technology research and development, business finance, life and leisure, innovation services and other functions in one of the joint creation of a comprehensive service core.
"Two districts", that is, the integration of industry and education, and the integration of intelligent manufacturing. Here we mainly talk about the integration of industry and education, which is guided by scientific research and education, highlights the function of high-end creative and intelligent services, promotes the linkage development of universities and scientific research institutes, and builds a city of science and education that promotes industry through education.
Screenshot of the content of the meeting of the Science and Technology Innovation City.
The specific idea is to rely on the high-quality educational resources of Henan University of Urban Construction and Pingdingshan University, implement the three major projects of relocation of local colleges, cooperation with well-known colleges and universities, and integration of industry and education, so as to create a "2+3+X" higher education resource gathering place. Strengthen the concept of co-construction, sharing and symbiosis, build open and shared public service facilities such as stadiums, gymnasiums, libraries, and activity centers, build Chuangzhi Valley projects in the adjacent areas of colleges and universities, scientifically lay out entrepreneurial headquarters bases, school-enterprise cooperation research centers, and net-guest villages, maker villages, youth innovation workshops, creative fashion blocks, etc., and strive to build a demonstration area for the integration of vocational education industry.
Screenshot of the content of the article in Kechuang City This industry-education integration area is Xiangshan University Town, and its pioneer area is the area mentioned above. Therefore, Xiangshan University Town is an important part of Baiguihu Science and Technology Innovation City.
How many colleges and universities will be relocated in the university town?
In fact, there is no public information about which colleges and universities will be relocated to university towns.
But what is certain is that the possibility of cooperating with domestic universities to build a branch campus in the university town of Xiangshan is too great.
According to the statement "implementation of the relocation of local colleges and universities" in the content of the meeting released by the relevant departments, the colleges and universities relocated to the university town should be the existing colleges and universities in the urban area.
As mentioned earlier, Xiangshan University Town will build a "2+3+x" higher education resource gathering place.
2", that is, Henan University of Urban Construction and Pingdingshan College, of course, it is unlikely that these two universities will be relocated to the university town pilot area as a whole, mainly relying on the high-quality resources of these two universities to implement the relocation of local colleges and universities.
3", located in 3 colleges and universities in the urban area. Of these three colleges and universities, many people in Eagle City can say their names with their eyes closed.
According to the content of the "conceptual planning stage" of Xiangshan University Town by relevant municipal departments, two of the three colleges and universities are planned in the southern area of the university town pilot area, that is, between Ping'an Avenue and Zhanhe. Among them, the campus of University A is located in the west of the public training base that has just been built, that is, the southeast side of Ping'an Avenue and Longmen Avenue, and the campus of University B is located in the east of the public training base, that is, the southwest side of Ping'an Avenue and Xinxing Road.
Another tertiary institution is planned to be built in the southeast area of the Pilot Zone, which I call the university campus.
Location map of the three universities.
x", refers to the graduate schools or research institutes of several well-known universities. Of course, this is the next step, and we need to make great efforts to introduce some well-known universities in China to set up graduate schools or research institutes.
As far as the two local undergraduate universities are concerned, both have been approved as key project construction units for the granting of master's degrees in Henan Province, and both have jointly cultivated master's students with Zhengzhou University and other universities. In the future, it is not impossible for the master's degree granting programs of these two universities to be established in the pilot area of the university town.
University town, what kind of planning and layout?
The Xiangshan University Town Pilot Zone is divided into two areas, north and south, with Ping'an Avenue as the boundary.

As mentioned above, the other campus is located on the east side of the University Town Pilot Zone, which is slightly larger than Campuses A and B, with Ping'an Avenue to the north and Jianshe Road to the south.
Located on the southeast side of the University Town Pilot Zone, the northern part of the University Town Pilot Zone is mainly a cultural and sports facility area and a Chuangzhi District focusing on entrepreneurship and innovation, which is called Chuangzhi Valley in planning.
Among them, the northeast is a shared cultural and sports facilities area, mainly including student employment and entrepreneurship center, student entrepreneurship guidance center, youth activity center, art center, library, stadium, swimming pool, student fitness center, etc.

Why build a college town?
The construction of the university town is in essence a major change and reshaping of the campus function, teaching mode and campus environment of the existing colleges and universities in our city.
*From the Internet, invaded and deleted.
Although the current vocational colleges and universities have made many attempts in the integration of industry and education, and have achieved great results, the self-contained school-running model and closed campus environment still appear to have a relatively lack of opportunities to interact with society and enterprises, and it is easy to disconnect school education with market demand.
On the one hand, students have insufficient communication with other universities, enterprises and society, and lack of practical experience in industry, on the other hand, the educational resources and public resources on campus are limited by physical space, and buildings and facilities usually only serve the campus interior, resulting in low resource utilization and waste of resources.
*From the Internet, invasion and deletion For this reason, an important positioning of Xiangshan University Town is "resource sharing, integration of industry and education", providing support for cultivating technical and skilled talents urgently needed by high-tech industries.
The concept map of the science and technology information hub of the university town is first of all the deep integration of industry and campus, which means that the colleges and universities that move into the university town in the future should take great strides in the transformation of application-oriented teaching, and even the reallocation of resources, the reshaping of teachers, and the reorganization of ...... curriculum
*From the Internet, invaded and deleted.
The multi-functional industry-university-research building, science and technology information hub, school-enterprise cooperation research center and other facilities in the university town undoubtedly provide unlimited possibilities for flexible teaching, training, incubation and achievement display. Universities can also make adjustments to different teaching, research and industrial cooperation projects to promote industry-university-research cooperation.
At the same time, the university town will also be built into an open and shared public space, promote the exchange and inheritance of campus culture, corporate culture and urban culture, encourage the free flow of people inside and outside the university, and jointly build and share the future urban life.

In this way, between colleges and universities, between universities and enterprises, and between universities and society, a platform for organic interaction is formed in the university town.
Therefore, the university town should not only build a large number of cultural and sports facilities for teachers and students, enterprises and social people in the university town to share and share, but also build a youth vitality entrepreneurship center - Chuangzhi Valley, that is, a creative block, a maker center, an entrepreneurial headquarters base, a school-enterprise cooperation research center, etc., so that students in various colleges and universities not only have a hometown circle, a class circle, a roommate circle, but also an entrepreneurship circle, a training circle, and a mentor-apprentice circle. In this way, teachers and students from different colleges and universities can collide together, teachers and students collide with enterprises, and teachers and students collide with society, stimulate inspiration and exploration, and promote the formation of a one-stop teaching model of production, education and research.

What benefits can the construction of a university town bring to Eagle City?
The author has sorted out the following advantages of building a university town:
First, it can not only cultivate the talents needed for enterprises, but also provide a direct channel for college students to find employment.
One of the positioning of the university town is the deep integration of industry and campus, and the office and office offices of a number of enterprises will also be established in the university town. What kind of talents do enterprises need, how to cultivate such talents, and the deep integration of enterprises and universities is the key to solving this problem. The practice of some "university towns" in other places is to adopt "order-to-order" education, and the two sides work together to cultivate technical and skilled talents suitable for the needs. The theoretical knowledge of students is undertaken by colleges and universities, and the practical operation is undertaken by enterprises.
*From the Internet, invaded and deleted.
Second, it will help improve the soft and hard power of colleges and universities.
The existing colleges and universities in the urban area have been established for decades, and most of the school environments are relatively old.
Henan Quality Engineering Vocational College, located on Yaodian Avenue, was established in 1996. Pingdingshan Industrial Vocational and Technical College, located on Reservoir Road, has been established for twenty or thirty years. Although Pingdingshan Vocational and Technical College has a new campus in the west section of Chang'an Avenue, it is too far away from the urban area, which is further west than the Pingdingshan West High-speed Railway Station, far away from many high-tech enterprises in the urban area and the eastern part of the city.
If these schools can be relocated to the university town, not only the school environment will be greatly improved, but also can be in close contact with many high-tech enterprises, which is beneficial to the realization of deep integration of schools and enterprises, and helps to improve the soft and hard power of colleges and universities, and attract students to apply for the examination.
Concept art of a corner of the universityThird, it will help students from other places to stay in Pingdingshan.
College students go to work after graduation, depending on the employment opportunities that can be found in ** suitable for their professional and personal development. On the one hand, Pingdingshan is an old industrial base, on the basis of this old industrial base, in recent years, high-tech enterprises in Pingdingshan have sprung up, especially the new material industry in Nylon City needs a large number of professional and skilled personnel. The "order" education with deep integration of schools and enterprises can undoubtedly greatly broaden the employment opportunities of college students.
*From the Internet, invaded and deleted.
On the other hand, the two undergraduate colleges and three junior colleges in the urban area enroll a total of nearly 30,000 new students every year, of which a high proportion are non-local students. Taking this autumn enrollment as an example, Pingdingshan University enrolled a total of 6,230 new students, only 450 local students, and more than 92% of them were from other places. Henan University of Urban Construction recruited 6,037 new students, 326 local students, and about 95% of them were from other places. Henan Institute of Quality Engineering recruits more than 5,700 new students, more than 1,000 local students, and about 80% of them are from other places.
*From the Internet, invaded and deleted.
The above five colleges and universities recruit at least 20,000 new students every year, and even if one-tenth of these 20,000 foreign students stay employed every year, then Pingdingshan will add 2,000 people every year, which makes up for the lack of population loss in our city and provides the support of technical talents for the sustainable development of Pingdingshan.
In fact, many of the foreign students who graduated from several colleges and universities in Pingdingshan urban area stayed in Pingdingshan every year, and Yue Xiang, who has been mixed with wind and water in the ** circle, is a native of Shangqiu, and after graduating from Pingdingshan College, he first returned to his hometown, but soon returned to Eagle City to start a business, and has now become a well-known person in Eagle City.
Zha Yongwei, who graduated from Henan University of Urban Construction, is a native of Xinyang, and directly stayed in Pingdingshan to engage in real estate marketing after graduation.
Fourth, it will help local colleges and universities to upgrade and upgrade.
On the basis of the existing colleges and universities in Pingdingshan, the city has also been working hard to upgrade junior colleges to undergraduates, and colleges to universities, such as the University of Chemical Technology, Nylon University, and Chengjian University, which began to plan a few years ago.
Although it is very difficult, it is not impossible, especially there is some hope for upgrading vocational colleges and universities to vocational undergraduate colleges.
The establishment of the university town can not only greatly improve the environmental image of the city's colleges and universities, but also greatly increase the employment rate of colleges and universities in the university town in the future.
Zhoukou Vocational College of Science and Technology was originally an inconspicuous local Haiyan Technical School, which was later upgraded to a vocational college, and was upgraded to an undergraduate college with the approval of the Ministry of Education in 2019, and was renamed Henan Vocational University of Science and Technology.
In recent years, the Ministry of Education has to approve some colleges and universities that have been upgraded every year, and in 2023, there are many colleges and universities that have announced the declaration of undergraduate programs by the Henan Provincial Department of Education, among which Luohe Food Vocational College has been declared as Luohe Food Engineering Vocational University (private), Sanmenxia College of Applied Engineering has been declared as the School of Applied Engineering of Henan University of Science and Technology (public), and Zhengzhou Shuqing Medical College has been declared as Zhengzhou Health College (private), etc.
Moreover, Puyang City and China University of Petroleum cooperated to establish the Puyang Joint Research Institute of China University of Petroleum, and Zhumadian Pingyu County cooperated with Sun Yat-sen University to establish the Henan Research Institute of Sun Yat-sen University.
Puyang Joint Research Institute, China University of Petroleum.
Screenshot of Henan Research Institute of Sun Yat-sen University.
Obviously, some cities with an industrial base and industrial scale that are not as good as Pingdingshan have also made local vocational colleges successfully "upgrade", or brought in well-known universities to set up research institutes
The investment and construction of Xiangshan University Town has provided opportunities and possibilities for the city's colleges and universities to "upgrade from junior college to undergraduate" and "college to university".
University town, when will it be built?
Xiangshan University Town is a huge project, the investment is huge, and it is extremely difficult to promote.
Therefore, it is obviously unrealistic to build a university town in Xiangshan in a short period of time.
Money is the biggest problem in this dilemma.
After three years of the epidemic, with the economic downturn, especially the sharp decline in land revenue, the city's finances have been quite tight.
The operation of colleges and universities in the urban area is only maintained, and there is not much financial resources for large-scale planning and relocation investment.
The Pingmei College of Engineering and Technology of Henan Polytechnic University settled in a junior college in the urban area many years ago, and opened the application-oriented undergraduate education of many majors in the school. Opening a new campus for undergraduates has always been the school's intention, but it has been unable to do so due to financial constraints.
Henan Quality Engineering Vocational College is the only full-time public general higher vocational college in the country with quality education and quality service as the main features. Changing the campus environment, improving the quality of teaching, and preparing for the upgrade are also the pursuit of teachers and students, but where does the money come from?
Another vocational college in the urban area only had a new campus of about 500 acres a few years ago, and it is unrealistic to invest heavily in relocating to the university town
Obviously, the difficulties ahead of the university town are not small.
But if you have difficulties, don't you do it?
There is an old saying that if there are conditions, you must go up, and if you don't have conditions, you must also go up.
At present, Pingdingshan has seven industrial clusters, including new nylon materials, advanced equipment manufacturing, new energy energy storage, and biomedicine, and has 405 high-tech enterprises and 733 technology-based small and medium-sized enterprises. Without the empowerment of science and technology and the support of a large number of technical and skilled talents, the development stamina will be insufficient.
Building Baiguihu Science and Technology Innovation City, Huashan Wisdom Island and Xiangshan University Town are the development goals set by our city, and we should overcome all difficulties to go on.
In order to promote the rapid development of the science and technology industry, the new city leaders have strategized, practiced and traveled in many ways, and have completed a number of major things in just a few months in recent years.
From June 19th to 20th, 2023, the first China Nylon Industry Development Conference was successfully held in Pingdingshan City
On August 21, 2023, the finals of the 12th China Innovation and Entrepreneurship Competition Henan Division and the 15th Henan Innovation and Entrepreneurship Competition were grandly reopened in Pingdingshan
On September 16, 2023, the Pingdingshan Industrial Technology Research Institute of Henan Academy of Sciences was inauguratedOn the same day, the Pingdingshan Achievement Transformation Center of Longmen Laboratory was also inaugurated
On October 17, 2023, Yaoshan Laboratory was inaugurated in Pingdingshan
On November 11, 2023, the 12th China Innovation and Entrepreneurship Competition Nylon New Material Industry Technology Innovation Professional Competition was successfully held in Pingdingshan.
Obviously, the work efficiency of the new city leaders is very high and fruitful, and it is worthy of the trust of the people of Eagle City.
It's man-made. ** His old man once said: "There is nothing difficult in the world, as long as you are willing to climb".
