As a "top" talent in higher education, doctoral students have undertaken a lot of scientific research work in universities and research institutes. However, pursuing poetry and the distance requires travel expenses; yearning for the stars and seas requires tickets. "Low monthly income", "not enough money to spend" and "it's difficult to establish a thirty" are the problems faced by many doctoral students today. The meager income has made doctoral students tied to "poverty and destitute", and the voices of society calling for doctoral students to "raise their salary" are heard one after another.
On November 26, at the 7th Fudan Chief Economist Forum, Liu Yuanchun, a famous economist and president of Shanghai University of Finance and Economics, said that there are 400,000 doctoral students in China, whose monthly income is more than 3,000 yuan, and it is recommended to increase 100,000 yuan. makes their monthly income reach 10,000 yuan , so that these doctoral students can truly train them into top talents, allowing them to conduct research with peace of mind, and at the same time, they can also make normal payments (living expenses).
"Doctor "salary increase" is urgent! 》Article comment screenshot
is studying for a doctorate, really poor
my country's doctoral student subsidy mainly consists of four parts: National and school scholarships, academic scholarships, social donation scholarships, and "three assistances and one auxiliary" job allowance . Affected by schools, regions, majors, etc., subsidies for doctoral students in school vary greatly, but looking at the whole country, the overall level is still at a low level. In addition, the tuition fee of tens of thousands of yuan has to be paid, and the doctoral students’ answers to the subsidy level are basically “not enough to spend”!
For example, the official website of a " Double First-Class " university in the west shows that the average doctoral student can receive an academic scholarship of 15,000 yuan per year, and a monthly graduate scholarship of 1,600 yuan, and is paid for 12 months, so the annual "income" is about 34,200 yuan. Among them, a few outstanding people have won a series of scholarships such as national scholarship and principal scholarship, that is, student's approximate monthly income is 2,850 yuan .
Another example is that the official website of a 985 university in Beijing shows that the average number of doctoral students can receive 10,000 yuan in academic scholarships, 22,000 graduate scholarships, and about 10,000 yuan in research allowances. The annual "income" is about 42,000 yuan. There are also a few outstanding students who have received a series of scholarships such as teaching assistant allowances and social scholarships, that is, monthly income per student is 3,500 yuan . Compared with the income of 2,000 to 4,000 yuan, more local universities even only have around 1,500 yuan per month.
In July this year, a netizen left a message on the People's Daily leader's message board - "I hope that the province will effectively improve the treatment of doctoral students" once again told the current situation of doctoral students.
In the message, the netizen pointed out: Most doctoral students are full-time studies and have a high life pressure. Some schools only give 12,000 yuan in annual scholarships given by the state, and the proportion of academic scholarships has been adjusted from 70% to 60%. The scholarship for freshmen is changed to only those who can get a master's and doctoral program (the proportion of master's and doctoral program is about 5%). Just imagine at the age of 27 or 28, and even many doctoral students are thirty years old, only has a subsidy of 1,500 yuan per month. How much pressure should be for freshmen? There is no scientific research fund project for doctoral students in the province to apply for.
In this regard, the netizen strongly suggested in his message that the province can uniformly care for doctoral students, such as adding provincial scholarships, scholarships, and scientific research fund for students in school.
Insufficient subsidies and no formal job or salary, the doctoral student at the top of the tower was gradually bent by life. This situation of struggling on the line of food and clothing and not being able to make ends meet even discourages many people who yearn for a doctorate.
makes the doctoral student group no longer worry about "survival", and it is urgent to improve the treatment of doctoral students.
doctoral treatment, and many times improved
In fact, our country is already working hard to improve the basic treatment of doctoral students.
According to relevant documents of the Ministry of Education and the Ministry of Finance, in 1985 , the monthly subsidy for domestic doctoral students was 76 yuan per student (for those with work experience plus 15 yuan); in the 1990s, the subsidy for doctoral students was divided into three levels, namely 1991 html; 6, 100, 110 yuan, 1994 , 190, 210, 230 yuan, and 1996 240, 260, 280 yuan; until 2009 , doctoral student subsidies jumped, and were unified to 1,000 yuan per student per month.
In 2017, the state once again raised the national scholarship funding standard for doctoral students, increasing the average monthly subsidy per person increased by about 12,000 yuan per student to 15,000 yuan, and the average monthly subsidy per person increased by about 250 yuan per student.
This adjustment has been used to this day.
colleges and universities have really increased!
"salary increase" for doctors, and it is true that they are the first to implement it in colleges and universities. In recent years, many universities have attracted doctoral students with first-class scientific research potential to "apply" by increasing their "salary" benefits.
For example, the revised on October 27, 2021 "Supplementary Regulations of Henan University on Improving Doctoral Aids" shows: In order to reduce the life pressure of doctoral students, support doctoral students to concentrate on academic research and complete their studies smoothly, School decided to increase the scholarship standards for full-time doctoral students. For full-time ordinary doctoral students in our school that meet the national graduate student scholarship payment regulations, based on the original national grants and school subsidies, the scholarship for each full-time doctoral student will increase by 5,000 yuan per year within the 4-year basic academic system.
In 2020, University of Science and Technology of China History of Mathematics and Sciences has posted an admission announcement of a guaranteed income of 100,000 yuan per person per year from the doctoral stage; Nankai University stated that it will increase its own funding by more than 100,000 yuan per year on the basis of national funding, and top doctoral students in the school can receive a total of more than 100,000 yuan in various types of awards per year; Tsinghua University also stated that it is necessary to ensure that the minimum annual funding standard for doctoral students is not less than 51,000 yuan. In addition, South China University of Technology , Guangdong University of Technology , etc. have all adjusted the scholarships for doctoral students.
Judging from the situation of different universities, schools also use rewards to publish high-level papers to improve the treatment of doctoral students, which is also a measure to accurately improve the treatment of doctoral students.
In short, to improve the quality of doctoral student training, it is necessary to create an environment for doctoral students to devote themselves to academic research and pursue doctoral degrees. The process of improving the treatment of doctoral students is also a process of establishing and improving the training mechanism for doctoral students.
Doctoral students are the reserve force of my country's scientific research forces and an important reserve of my country's scientific research talent echelon. Only by creating a stable environment for doctoral students to devote themselves to scientific research and let them have a relatively "decent life", can they better promote their devoted investment in scientific research, thereby ensuring the long-term development of the level of scientific and technological innovation in my country.
