| With the development of a thousand years,the university which acts as an ancient organization has strode forward to the core of the society.There may relies no such an old but dynamic social organization as a university.If we want to look for the reasons,the inexhaustible vitality of university system not come from academic freedom,the independence and excellence,but also from the truth that universities can adapt to a collection of social changes with different times,and create relevant pattern of university.So that their own legitimacy is left and promised.The University of Academy of Sciences is a new model that has emerged in recent years in China.We take the University of Chinese Academy of Sciences(UCAS)sponsored by the Chinese Academy of Sciences,and the University of Chinese Academy of Social Sciences(UCASS)sponsored by the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences for example.The foundation of those two universities has enabled China’s two leaders to build a complete system of higher education in the field of natural science,philosophy and social science—the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Academy of Social Sciences.Such research institutions of government and the pattern of universities can not be said as unique in the world,while it is badly rare.The UCAS and UCASS are regarded as an integration of science and education for that it’s backed by the two treasury resource——Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Academy of Social Sciences.Those two had already become the social focus when they get the birth and also had been hailed by media as “born with the blossom."At the same time,in the midst of the nation’s construction of a world-class university and a first-rate discipline,the birth of the two schools also adds freshness to the higher education in China.It then arouses a profound thinking,what kind of power lies behind the Academy of Sciences? Whatare the features of running those universities compared to traditional one? How much can those two universities achieve in the future? What kind of changes can be made for higher education in China?From the history of its emergence,the Academy of Sciences was created in the process of scientific institutionalization in the West,which act as two major institutions to promote the development of modern advanced knowledge.The universities got to have a function of scientific research until the early 19 th.Nowadays,after a long wear-and tear between those two universities in West,they have finally developed a road of integration of science and education,which complements each other and wins cooperation.By contrast,due to the unique factors in history,both the academies and universities in China have been in a state with fracture that bears a collections of affections.From such a view,the birth of The Universities of Academy of Sciences is the nature of historical development.For the realistic cause of its appearance,a combination of science and education generated by the Universities of Academy of Sciences has developed into a landmark concept of a modern university,and the appearance of the University of Academy of Sciences is a relative response to Chinese modern development.Second,the foundation of the University of Academy of Sciences is to satisfy the country’s need for leading talent.Besides,the establishment of the Academy of Sciences is also a main measure for the Chinese Academy of Sciences to explore its own legitimacy in modern times.Finally,the establishment of the University of Academy of Sciences is still a vital exploration of a developing new pattern of higher education with Chinese own features.As a practitioner of the new type of university pattern,both The UCAS and the UCASS have many similarities to the characteristics of running a university.Such similarity is reflected in an overall design of the integration of science and education.As for the orientation of running a university,they are mainly oriented to the cultivation of elites,which attaches great importance to cultivate students in a personalized way in the practice of running a university.In the vision of running universities,they pay attention to cultivate their international views;In the organizational system,campuses are set up extensively to form a multiple system.It is foreseeable to meet overwhelming challenges for the new model of the university,which come from the natural heterogeneity between the Academy of Sciences and the university,as well as the lack of undergraduate experience in the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Chinese Academy of Sciences.At the same time,the hard matter of homogenization is widespread in Chinese universities,and the Academy of Sciences The uncertain relationship between the university and the established development order of China’s higher education also threatens the prospects for running the university.Based on the analysis of the characteristics and challenges of running a university,the Universities of Academy of Sciences needs to start from five aspects to achieve its aims: First,the Academy of Sciences needs to further improve its own organizational structure,so as to truly complete the research institutions.Second,the University of the Academy of Sciences needs to coordinate the various external interests related with education,while creating a good external environment for the development of the school;Third,the Universities of Academy of Sciences needs to continuously devote itself to the innovation of the talent cultivation model and strive to create a experimental field worldwide of science and education integration.Fourth,the Universities of Academy of Sciences focus on its own advantages and development of the cutting-edge emerging disciplines,in order to improve its competition with other universities and colleges.In conclusion,the Universities of Academy of Sciences shall make a good use of the resources of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Academy of Social Sciences in order to introduce the high quality resources of education,while striving to build a multi-campus system which is similar to the University of Californian.All those measures are devoted to exploiting the "second path" for Chinese double-rate construction. |
