Many people may have a dream of a prestigious school, but very few people can realize this dream, and most people may end up going to a very ordinary university.
If there is a cost-effective 985 university in front of you, will you be tempted?
Today, the university we want to talk about is Lanzhou University!
As the saying goes, an emaciated camel is bigger than a horse. Lanzhou University, which is called the most cost-effective 985 university by students, is not the top university in China in terms of discipline strength and faculty. But it still has its own advantages and characteristics.
First of all, since the fifties and sixties of the last century, Lanzhou University has been famous at home and abroad, and has been rated as one of the top ten best universities in China by the American magazine "Science".
Secondly, although Lanzhou University is located in the economically underdeveloped northwest, as the only 985 university in Gansu Province, Gansu Province still attaches great importance to Lanzhou University. Every year, a large amount of financial support will be given to the University, although it is not as good as the universities in the developed areas in the east, but it is not bad in China, coupled with the strategy of developing the western region, the University has received more policy support.
On the whole, although the University is located in the northwest, the geographical location is not as good as that of the eastern coastal areas, and the economy is relatively backward, from the national to the local level, they attach great importance to this university.
In fact, in China, there are many universities with geographical advantages, such as Jilin University and Harbin Institute of Technology in Northeast China, which also belong to 985 universities, and they are also developing very well.
As a national key comprehensive university directly under the Ministry of Education, Lanzhou University is a key university in the national "985 Project" and "211 Project", a national "double first-class" construction university, a national national defense education characteristic discipline university, and one of the first universities in the country with the right to confer bachelor's, master's and doctoral degrees and the first batch to establish a postdoctoral research station.
Lanzhou University has a long history, founded in 1909, and its predecessor was the Gansu School of Law and Politics established during the New Deal in the late Qing Dynasty. In 1928, it was expanded to become Lanzhou Sun Yat-sen University.
In 1946, it was named National Lanzhou University. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, Lanzhou University was identified as a national key university.
Since the reform and opening up, Lanzhou University has first selected the "211 Project" and "985 Project". In 2017, Lanzhou University was selected into the list of national "Double First-Class" universities, and the development of the university entered a new historical stage. There are two campuses, Yuzhong Campus and Chengguan Campus, as well as an affiliated hospital, formerly known as the Second Affiliated Hospital of Lanzhou Medical College.
It should be noted that the University implements a credit system, and students can complete the credits in advance and continue to study after graduation.
The University offers a wide range of majors, including philosophy, economics, law, education, literature, history, science, engineering, agriculture, medicine, management, and art. However, due to its location in the northwest, many majors do not have an advantage over universities in the eastern coastal areas, especially those that require experimental equipment and internship opportunities.
The University has four world-class disciplines: chemistry, atmospheric science, ecology, and grass science, among which grass science was rated A+ in the fourth round of discipline evaluation, ranking first in the country.
In addition, the University of Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Ecology, Atmospheric Sciences, Applied Economics, History, Ethnology, Marxist Theory, Mathematics, Mechanics, Materials Science and Engineering, Civil Engineering, Geology, Dunhuang Studies, Stomatology and other majors are also very good. If you want to go to Lanzhou University, it is highly recommended to apply for these advantageous majors, which are first-class in China in terms of faculty and experimental equipment.
Of course, other majors are not bad, but they may not be so outstanding relatively speaking.
I believe that many people will be worried about the learning atmosphere and faculty of the University. In fact, there is no need to worry at all, as the only 985 university in Gansu Province, the learning atmosphere of the school is very good.
Especially in the Yuzhong Campus, most of the students are admitted from other places and study very hard. As for the faculty, there are 18 academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Chinese Academy of Sciences, 18 Changjiang Scholars Distinguished Professors, 5 Young Changjiang Scholars, 10 Leading Talents of the Ten Thousand Talents Program, 7 Young Top-notch Talents of the Ten Thousand Talents Program, 24 National Outstanding Youth Winners, 14 National Candidates for the Millions of Talents Project, 19 Candidates for the "New Century Excellent Talents Support Program" of the Ministry of Education, and 4 National Famous Teachers. Most of these teachers graduated from famous schools in China, and their strength is absolutely leveraged.
