"When heaven and earth intersect, all things are connected, and when superiors and inferiors interoperate, they are of the same mind." , which means that only when the yin and yang of heaven and earth interoperate can the growth and development of all things be smooth; only when the emperor and his ministers communicate with each other can they be of the same mind. This sentence comes from "The Book of Changes" and is the origin of the word "Jiaotong" in the name of China's earliest Jiaotong University.
The famous Jiaotong University in China includes Xi'an Jiaotong University , Shanghai Jiaotong University , and Yangming Jiaotong University , which originated from Nanyang Public School . There are also Beijing Jiaotong University which originated from the Railway Management Institute in 1909 and Southwest Jiaotong University which originated from Shanhaiguan Beiyang Railway Official School in 1896.
Less famous Jiaotong University, there are Beijing Jiaotong University and Southwest Jiaotong University, which were formerly organized departments, Lanzhou Jiaotong University , East China Jiaotong University which has a part of the blood of Shanghai Jiaotong University, and Chongqing Jiaotong University and Dalian Jiaotong University , two universities with less glorious histories, and other Jiaotong universities are not "related" .
At present, there are six provinces that have announced plans to build their own "Jiaotong University" . Some have greater hopes, while others have less hope. hopes that the larger ones are Henan, Guangdong, Hubei, and Hebei, and hopes that the smaller ones are Shandong and Jiangsu.
1. Henan: Making something out of nothing
The leader of the “hell mode” of the college entrance examination is Henan Province. There are more than one million college entrance examination candidates every year, accounting for one-tenth of the total number of candidates nationwide. has so many candidates, but there is no 985 Project University in Henan Province, only one 211 Project University ( Zhengzhou University ), and two double first-class (World Class University Construction University Class B Zhengzhou University, World Class Discipline Construction University Henan University ). The people of Henan province are eager to build more colleges and universities. This is the origin of "making something out of nothing" .
html On January 5, good news came. Leaders of Henan Province publicly stated that would rely on existing science and engineering colleges to prepare to build University of Electronic Science and Technology , University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Jiaotong University, Industrial Software College, etc. .
Thinking about this passage carefully, since it is planned to be built on the existing basis, the basis for the preparation of is probably Zhengzhou Aviation Industry Management College , a school related to transportation . The new message seems to be just a slogan and seems far away from setting concrete steps. Why do I still think that the construction of this university is full of hope? Quite simply, the reason is that is a move and is a move.
Look at the "measures" . In December 2021, Henan Province officially stated that during the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, it will provide Zhengzhou University and Henan University with 5 billion yuan and 2.5 billion yuan of " double first-class " construction funds respectively. The move was considered a major one nationwide. Look at "people" . From Shanxi to Henan, a big leader brought earth-shaking changes to higher education in the two provinces.
2. Guangdong: Close at hand
As the province with the largest population inflow and the largest economy in the country, Guangdong Province is also busy "building higher education, increasing the number of universities, and improving the quality of universities." At present, Guangzhou Jiaotong University (in preparation) has officially listed , and the construction of the school has been included in the "14th Five-Year Plan for the Development of Education in Guangzhou". Perhaps in the fall of 2022, it will officially start enrolling students.
The construction of this university adopts the 1+4 model , "1" is the previous Guangzhou Navigation College , "4" is four vocational colleges . These five universities are the foundation of Guangzhou Jiaotong University (in preparation). With the 10 billion construction funds invested by Guangzhou, the formation of this university is close at hand, so I used the words "nearly at hand" .
3. Hubei: Either/or
Other provinces are building Jiaotong University, and the city where it will be implemented can basically be determined. Only in Hubei Province, there are two cities competing for the name of "Hubei Jiaotong University" , The first is Xiangyang , and the second is Shiyan . In August 2021, Hubei University of Arts and Sciences of Xiangyang City publicly stated that Xiangyang supports the transformation and development of the school and creates a university featuring transportation.
Also in 2021, Shiyan released the 14th Five-Year Plan, proposing to accelerate the preparation of comprehensive universities and integrate Hubei Automobile Industry College, Hubei Medical College, Hanjiang Normal University, Hubei Industrial Vocational and Technical College and other universities. Previously, relevant departments in Shiyan City had publicly expressed their opinions on netizens’ suggestion of “preparing to establish Hubei Jiaotong University”, saying that the suggestion was very good.
If "Hubei Jiaotong University" really lands one day, will it land in Xiangyang or Shiyan? is either/or!
4. Hebei: full of difficulties
In 2018, Tangshan University in Tangshan City once publicly stated that the school had launched a name change plan. The first step was to change its name to Tangshan Jiaotong University; the second step was to change its name to Tangshan Jiaotong University. It is estimated that even the school itself did not expect that this news would trigger public opinion. Southwest Jiaotong University was the first to attack . Because this university once operated in Tangshan before moving to Sichuan, and its former name was "Tangshan Jiaotong University", it firmly resisted the name change of Tangshan College.
In 2020, the " Interim Measures for Naming Higher Education Institutions " was released. In principle, the name of a university cannot be renamed using the school name that has been used by other universities. There is no hope of Tangshan College changing its name to Tangshan Jiaotong University. At the same time, rumors circulated that the school's was renamed Hebei Jiaotong University, and then sought to be upgraded to Hebei Jiaotong University .
Some people in Hebei Province also proposed to change the name of Shijiazhuang Railway University to Hebei Jiaotong University . The reason is that the school's main disciplines are related to transportation, and the school is relatively strong and can afford this school name.
What I have to say is that Tangshan College is weaker than . It will take some time to change its name to "Jiaotong College", and it will be impossible to change its name to "Jiaotong University". What about Shijiazhuang Railway University ? When the school was founded, it was a military academy and a key military institution. Since then, it has been ranked as a national key university and is directly affiliated to the Ministry of Railways. It has a glorious history and there is great resistance to changing its name. Therefore, I used the words "difficulties" on the matter of preparing to build Jiaotong University in Hebei Province.
5. Two provinces: Times have changed
In 2019, a member of the Jiangsu Province Two Sessions proposed that should be in Huai'an Building an Jiangsu Jiaotong University will firstly help the construction of northern Jiangsu. Secondly, there are Shanghai Jiaotong University Jiangsu Northern Research Institute, Xi'an Jiaotong University Huai'an Science and Technology Park, and even transportation technical schools and Jiaotong Middle School, which are educational institutions named after "transportation". In my opinion, the history of Huai'an is worth mentioning. This city enjoys the reputation of "China's Canal Capital". It was once known as the four major cities along the canal along with Suzhou, Hangzhou and Yangzhou. In the early years, the Water Transport Governor's Palace and the Jiangnan River Governor's Palace were located in this water transport hub and salt transportation hub.
2019 was also the year when there were the strongest calls for the name change of Shandong Jiaotong University, which is run in Jinan and Weihai. However, more than two years have passed, and there has not been any "milestone" progress on the road to renaming to .
6. Transportation: of extraordinary significance
The former Shanghai Jiao Tong University was known as the " MIT of the East"; the former Southwest Jiaotong University was known as the " Cornell University of the East" ", the "old five" Jiaotong University has cultivated many pillars of talent for China. Qian Xuesen, Mao Yisheng, Zhu Kezhen, Zheng Zhenduo are all alumni of the "Jiaotong University" department.
Xi'an Jiaotong University, Shanghai Jiaotong University, Southwest Jiaotong University, Beijing Jiaotong University, Taiwan Yang-Ming Jiaotong University, these five universities have a small circle. Many alumni of these five universities believe that this circle should not be expanded for the reason of "keeping the blood pure". Among the five universities, Taiwan Yang-Ming Chiao Tung University was formed in 2020 by the merger of Taiwan Chiao Tung University and Taiwan Yang-Ming University . It seems that its bloodline has also been mixed with a trace of "impurity".
Among the above five Chiao Tung University, the English name of Taiwan Yang Ming Chiao Tung University is National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University. Before the merger, the name of Taiwan Chiao Tung University was National Chiao Tung University. The word "Jiaotong" was translated as "Chiao Tung", and the postal pinyin originated from Thomas Wade.
Among the English names of Xi'an Jiaotong University, Southwest Jiaotong University, and Beijing Jiaotong University , the word representing "traffic" is "Jiaotong" . Only Shanghai Jiaotong University is unique and uses "Jiao Tong" . Other domestic Jiaotong universities also use "Jiaotong" to refer to "traffic" in their English names.
What do you think of the small circle of the "old five" Jiaotong University? Among the six provinces rumored to be planning to build Jiaotong University, which one do you think is the most reliable? Come and chat in the comment area.
