Educational explosive style making machine
There are six universities, including the University of International Business Economics, the University of Finance and Economics, the Shanghai University of Finance and Economics, the Southwestern University of Finance and Economics, the Zhongnan University of Economics and Law, and the Dongbei University of Finance and Economics.
As the top representatives in the industry, the ace majors of these six colleges and universities are leading the country, and the graduates they have cultivated constitute half of the country's financial systems such as finance and taxation, finance, banking, and auditing, which can be described as outstanding.
In Guangdong, the southern province of China, there is also a university named after "finance", although the popularity is not as good as the above six universities, but it has an excellent reputation and influence in Guangdong Province, it is Guangdong University of Finance.
In the current environment of the renaming tide of colleges and universities across the country, Guangdong University of Finance also mentioned in its "New Year's Day speech" that the university will establish China's first financial university on the basis of integrating talents, science and technology, finance and other advantageous disciplines, and gather the majestic force of building a first-class applied financial university in China in the great practice of Chinese-style modernization.
As early as 2022, the "14th Five-Year Plan for the Education Development of Guangdong University of Finance" issued by Guangdong University of Finance clearly mentioned that during the 14th Five-Year Plan period, the university will be built into a first-class applied finance university in China, complete the achievement of various indicators set by the university, and strive to become the first financial university in China.
This may also mean that the country's first real "finance university" is coming.
Guangdong University of Finance is the only financial institution in South China, formerly known as the South China Branch Banking School of the People's Bank of China, founded in 1950, with a history of 74 years. You must know that the South China Branch Banking School of the People's Bank of China, which was established in the early days, is under the management of the head office of the People's Bank of China, and its status is very high, and it can be said that it is an institution with "central bank genes".
In 2004, the school was successfully upgraded to a bachelor's degree and renamed as Guangdong University of Finance, and in 2011, it was awarded a pilot program for master's degree training in finance. This also provides a strong guarantee for the college to be upgraded to a university in the future.
Today, the school has developed into a comprehensive financial college, covering seven disciplines: economics, management, law, literature, science, engineering, and art. The school has three professional master's degree authorization points in finance, insurance, and accounting;Finance, insurance, and accounting are national first-class undergraduate majors, and 14 majors, including credit management, are provincial-level first-class undergraduate majors. Applied Economics, Business Administration, Finance, and Economic Law are the key disciplines in Guangdong Province.
In the 2023 ranking of Ranking of Universities, Guangdong University of Finance ranks 38th among financial and economic institutions in China, with little change from its annual ranking.
From the perspective of discipline construction, Guangdong University of Finance has maintained a strong discipline in the field of traditional finance, and finance, insurance, accounting, credit management, international economics and mathematics, economics and financial mathematics have successively become first-class majors at the national and provincial levels, and their strength is outstanding.
Historically, People's Bank of China used to have 12 directly affiliated universities, distributed in many provinces across the country. These schools had a very high reputation in those days and were popular with many students. With the continuous reform of the education system, most of the universities directly under the ministries and commissions are under local management, except for some of them under the direct control of the Ministry of Education.
Nowadays, these universities have achieved different degrees of development, some merged, some upgraded, some have become double first-class, showing great resilience, the only one that has remained unchanged for 40 years, only Changchun Financial College.
In the author's opinion, it is not too long for Guangdong University of Finance to be upgraded to an undergraduate degree, and it is necessary to strengthen master's education before changing its name to a university. But the goal of changing the name may be getting closer and closer to the school.
