Century-old famous schools are definitely a golden sign for many domestic universities. This is why more and more universities are getting longer and longer in history, and there are only a few that can be called Century-old famous schools. Nowadays, they are almost all leaders in various professional fields, and they are definitely among the top three in the province.
However, there is such a university that was founded in 1915 and is 107 years old. It has been selected as a national key university in , , 211 universities, double first-class, etc., and its core majors are even the world's first-class. However, in the ranking of soft science in 2022, it is only ranked ninth in the province, which is surprising.
This is Hohai University .
Hohai University, located in Nanjing, Jiangsu Province, was formerly known as "Hohai Engineering Special School ". It is the first higher education institution in my country to cultivate water conservancy talents. During the development process, it was constantly split and merged, and finally restored the traditional school name "Hohai University" in 1985.
1960, Hohai University (at the timely name East China Water Conservancy College) was identified as a national key university and became one of the 64 key universities at that time.
1997, Hohai University was selected for 211.
In 2017, the first batch of selected " Double First-Class ".
Among them, The discipline of water resources engineering of Hohai University was once ranked first in the world, with water conservancy characteristics, an absolute domestic leader, and even a world leader.
But in the 2022 soft science ranking, Hohai University is only ranked ninth in Jiangsu Province. Similarly, in the minds of many people, Hohai University is an ordinary first-tier university, and many people even don’t know why?
Jiangsu, as a major center for domestic universities, not only has Nanjing University , which was once the number one in Asia, but also Southeast University , which is as famous as Tsinghua , plus Nanjing Science and Technology , Nanjing University of Aerospace and Aeronautics, etc., all of them are top-notch existences in the industry. Hohai University can only rank sixth in Jiangsu where big bosses gather. If it is placed in Henan, or Jiangxi or..., it is definitely an absolute big boss.
In addition, although Hohai University has strong core majors, it is relatively indisputable. Today, when the fields of aviation, electronics and other fields are very popular, the professional popularity is much weaker. In addition, the name of Hehai seems to have nothing to do with the region. Many students don’t even know that in Nanjing, Jiangsu, their popularity and enrollment popularity are naturally worse.
Even so, if you want to apply for Hohai University, your score is expected to exceed the first-tier line by about 150 points, otherwise it will be difficult to admit it. After all, it is a top-notch school in the Double Years. Even if it ranks ninth in Jiangsu, it is still among the top 60 in the country!
Jiangsu universities are indeed strong!
