Although the main mission of colleges and universities is to cultivate talents, their status in academic research is not inferior to that of research institutes and high-tech enterprises.
The co-optation of academicians from the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Chinese Academy of Engineering confirms the importance of universities in scientific research.
What is the meaning behind these data?
As we all know, universities are the cradle of talents, but they also play a pivotal role in the field of scientific research.
It not only contributes to basic scientific research, but also plays an indispensable role in key technological breakthroughs.
Many academicians have come out of universities, and the academic experience and scientific research achievements they have accumulated in colleges and universities have laid a solid foundation for the subsequent co-optation of academicians.
Colleges and universities are not only an important guarantee for talent training, but also an important support for national scientific research.
In the 2023 academician election results, 59 new academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and 74 new academicians of the Chinese Academy of Engineering are added.
Specifically, Tsinghua University, Beijing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Peking University and other universities have performed prominently in this academician election and have become the main force of new academicians.
It is worth mentioning that the six new academicians of Tsinghua University are the first among universities in the country, which once again confirms the importance of universities in the field of scientific research.
In addition to occupying the position of the main force in the entire academician election, the performance of major universities in this academician election is also very eye-catching.
In terms of the number of new academicians, Tsinghua University, Beijing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics and other universities are in the forefront, and Peking University, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, Tongji University and other universities are also outstanding.
Although Zhejiang University, Wuhan University and other universities are slightly insufficient in the number of new academicians, they have also significantly improved their scientific research level and strength.
It is worth mentioning that 10 "three non-universities" also stood out in the election of academicians, which undoubtedly added a touch of color to the improvement of the research strength of universities and the development of disciplines.
Behind the results of the co-optation of university academicians is the important responsibility and role of colleges and universities in academic research.
Colleges and universities are not only an important base for talent training, but also a cradle for the continuous emergence of scientific research achievements.
In the future, we hope to see more universities make greater contributions to the national scientific research cause and make unremitting efforts to cultivate more top scientists and academicians.
