Many art examinees wonder why most art majors are "colleges", such as the Central Academy of Fine Arts, the Central Conservatory of Music, the Central Academy of Drama, etc., while many comprehensive colleges are "universities", such as Tsinghua University, Zhejiang University, Wuhan University, etc. Some colleges have both "universities" and "colleges" in their names, For example, Chengdu University of Electronic Science and Technology, etc.

What is the difference between "college" and "university"? These different school suffixes have brought confusion to some students, especially when they are faced with the college entrance examination volunteer application, what problems should they pay attention to. below Nanning Art School Tell you:

01

Unclear differences lead to high scores and low reports

In fact, it is not only the current college entrance examinees who have these questions. Judging from the college entrance examination situation in previous years, many new college entrance examinees have not figured out the difference between the two, and even the situation that their high scores are low is a pity.

For example, in the Guangdong college entrance examination in 2020, a science student with a high score of 632 was admitted by Chengdu University of Electronic Science and Technology, which is typically caused by the wrong filling in the college entrance examination volunteer without understanding the college.

Because Chengdu College of University of Electronic Science and Technology of China is an independent college, which is the three colleges in many people's eyes. In previous years, the score of Chengdu College of University of Electronic Science and Technology of China was only about 50 points on the undergraduate online, while the University of Electronic Science and Technology of China is a key college, with much higher admission scores.

The score of 632 points of this candidate exceeded the excellent line of the 2020 college entrance examination of Guangdong Province by 108 points, and exceeded the undergraduate line by 222 points. With his score, he was able to apply for many 985 colleges and universities, including Sun Yat sen University and South China University of Technology in Guangdong Province.

However, it is really a pity that the wrong cognition of the university led to the wrong filling in of the voluntary application and was admitted by one of three universities.

Therefore, it is necessary for students and parents to make clear the difference between "university", "college" and "XX college of XX university" to avoid mistakes in the future. Now, I have sorted out the relevant contents for you, hoping to help you.

02

Neither university nor college is called casually

Nothing can be done without rules.

The same is true of universities and colleges. In China, the names of "universities" and "colleges" are not randomly chosen. The Ministry of Education has very specific regulations on the difference between the two.

According to the Higher Education Law of the People's Republic of China, universities and colleges should have strong teaching and scientific research strength, high teaching and scientific research level and corresponding scale, and be able to implement undergraduate education and above.

According to the Interim Provisions on the Establishment of Ordinary Undergraduate Schools (JF [2006] No. 18) issued by the Ministry of Education on September 28, 2006, and the Opinions of the Ministry of Education on the Establishment of Ordinary Institutions of Higher Learning during the Eleventh Five Year Plan Period (JF [2006] No. 17) issued by the Ministry of Education on September 26, 2006, universities and colleges in terms of school scale, disciplines and specialties, teaching staff, teaching and research level There are obvious differences in five aspects of infrastructure:

1、 School scale

University: The number of full-time students should be more than 8000, and the number of graduate students should not be less than 5% of the total number of full-time students.

College: The number of full-time students should be more than 5000.

With the approval of the Ministry of Education, schools of arts, sports and other special subjects or with special needs may not be subject to this limit.

2、 Discipline

Universities and colleges have different requirements on the setting of major disciplines and their covered specialties, the number of students in disciplines, the number of master's degree awarding points, and the total number of general undergraduate majors.

1. Among humanities, social sciences, science, engineering, agronomy, medicine, management and other disciplines, the college should have more than one discipline as the main discipline, while the university should have more than three disciplines.

2. The main disciplines of the college should cover more than 3 disciplines of the discipline; The ordinary undergraduate majors in each major discipline category of the university should cover more than three first level disciplines in that discipline category. The number of full-time undergraduate students or above in each major discipline category is not less than 15% of the total number of full-time undergraduate students or above in the university, and there are at least two master's degree awarding points. The total number of ordinary undergraduate majors is at least 20.
