In order to optimize the functions of the institution, establish a management system compatible with first-class universities, and build a systematic, scientific, standardized, collaborative and efficient operating mechanism, the Party Committee of the University launched the institutional reform of the "large department system" in August 2018。In line with the goal of coordinating tasks, resources and mechanisms,In this institutional reform,The school has four types of institutions: management organization, teaching and research organization, teaching and research auxiliary organization and service support organization.Sort out and integrate relevant functions,For talent training, teaching staff, academic research, planning and finance, assets, cooperation and development, logistics infrastructure, supervision and discipline enforcement 8 sections,Achieve a "grand overall plan" for human, financial and material resources,Promote the formation of "separation of management and service",Achieve collaborative and efficient operation of institutions。In the process of deepening reform, the Party Committee of the university focused on key areas and key links, constantly optimized the system and mechanism, truly accomplished practical tasks for teachers and students, solved difficult problems, and constantly promoted the reform to develop in depth。

"After the implementation of institutional reform, the linkage between departments has been further strengthened, gradually forming a working mechanism for teaching, scientific research, platform and other resources to give priority to talents, and the construction of high-level talent teams has achieved remarkable results," said Yang Jing, vice minister of Human Resources。The reform of the "large department system" coordinated the work of talent introduction, platform construction, resource allocation and other aspects, effectively solved the "weld" and "yoke" in departmental coordination, and greatly improved the work efficiency。Taking the team construction work as an example, the reform of the "large department system" is conducive to the high planning work of the overall situation of the school, so that it can better resonate with the same frequency as personnel training, discipline construction, and scientific and technological innovation。In the past five years, the school has newly elected 5 academicians, and the number of "four youth" talents has increased by 7.6 times, talent agglomeration effect and multiplication effect prominent。

"After the reform, the school has built a full-caliber budget system, the capital chain has formed a closed-loop, the school budget implementation process has accelerated, and the efficiency of the use of funds has been greatly improved.。Han Xingjie, director of the comprehensive Department of Planning and Finance, said。We will promote the development of the "large ministry system",It is not a simple merger of departments in the traditional sense,But to strengthen the overall leadership of the party as the lead,It is guided by the modernization of university governance system and governance capacity,To promote the function of departments and institutions optimization, coordination and efficiency as the focus,Coordinate function allocation and improve operation efficiency,We will make the establishment of institutions more scientific, their functions more optimized, their powers and responsibilities more clear, and their supervision and regulation more powerful,So as to provide a more solid system guarantee for the construction of "double first-class"。Since the establishment of the Planning Finance Department in 2018,The school promotes integrated innovation,Focus on the overall planning, planning, raising, implementation and other key links of funds,Improve the working mechanism,It has realized the deep integration and coordinated promotion of "double first-class" construction, discipline development, finance, education foundation, bidding and procurement,It has greatly improved the efficiency of the use of funds,It provides a reliable financial guarantee for the high-quality development of various undertakings。

"We have provided more than 200,000 machines and 120,000 samples for more than 100 research groups and research teams in 11 professional colleges, research institutes and centers,Support more than 30 experimental courses and trainings per year..."Talking about the contribution of the analytical Testing Center to the development of the school,Gao Peifeng, director of the center's comprehensive room, is a gem,Brimming with pride。In this great reform, not only the management departments, but also the teaching and scientific research institutions have shown new vitality because of the functional coordination。

To promote the optimization and adjustment of stock resources,Avoid the formation of research resources "fragmentation" and "island phenomenon",The school has effectively integrated teaching and research resources,The analysis and test center was established in 2016,In December 2019, the former Micro and Nano Technology Center was merged,Further enhance the professional service guarantee capability of the public experimental platform。In the past five years, focusing on the new direction of discipline development, the university has also built high-level experiment platforms such as micro and Nano quantum Photon Experiment Center and Advanced Materials Experiment Center in a forward-looking layout, and continued to build a hierarchical and classified experiment platform system, providing a strong platform support for talent training and scientific research。

Data governance, enabling the construction of "smart campus" with information technology

With the informationization of education 2.With the advent of the 0 era, the construction of "smart campus" has become an important way to support the modernization of education and realize the reform of education management mode。In the past five years, the school Party committee has attached great importance to the deep integration of information technology with school management, education and teaching, and scientific research, and fully applied emerging technological means such as big data, cloud computing, artificial intelligence, and mobile Internet to help the information construction turn and upgrade, and the "smart campus" has begun to take shape。

"To do a good job in information construction, we must first do a good job in data governance, start from the strategic needs of the school's development, and serve the scientific management and decision-making of the school through the integration of personnel training, teacher teams, asset management, planning and finance.。"Deputy director of the information office Kang said。At present, the school is guided by data governance and carries out the "one number one source" data right confirmation work for the main business, and has formed a relatively complete data standard system covering more than 500 forms in 8 major sections of the school。

Through the in-depth development of data governance, various business processes of the school are further simplified and optimized, and the effectiveness of promoting management process reengineering with information technology is becoming increasingly prominent, and "wisdom" has gradually become a prominent feature of school information construction。The online handling of documents processing, meeting organization, supervision work, overseas approval and other matters greatly improves the processing efficiency of various affairs and reduces the "pain of running and tiring" of teachers and students on campus. The staff of each link handle the approval process online in real time, and truly realize the "more information runs, less teachers and students run errands".。

"It solves the difficulties and pain points in the traditional assessment work, greatly simplifies the process of teachers filling in the workload and checking the data, greatly facilitates the college to grasp the work of teachers, realizes the intelligent query and statistics of the data, and provides an important guarantee for the fine management work.。For the performance appraisal platform, Heng Jing, vice president of the School of Mathematics and Statistics, used two "great" evaluations。In recent years, the university has also established a one-stop data filling platform, and built a data collection and use model of "one-time collection, multi-business sharing" and "replacing filling with confirmation", which has been successfully applied to graduate scholarship application, and has served some pilot colleges to carry out performance assessment, and achieved good results。

"This is the sixth year I've used the Music Learning platform in my teaching, but this time it feels completely different。Talking about the use of the "music" platform to carry out course teaching during the epidemic, Hu Yaoguang, a teacher of the College of Machinery and Vehicles, was deeply touched。In addition to the "reengineering" of business processes, information construction also provides strong support for talent training。At the beginning of 2020, when the novel coronavirus outbreak broke out, the university not only developed an application for teachers and students to fill in health information to serve the campus epidemic prevention and control, but also adopted the self-developed "Music" platform for online teaching, effectively ensuring that students' course learning is not affected。It is thanks to the school's attention to information construction work, after receiving the notice of online courses, the majority of teachers can respond in the first time, relying on the teaching experience accumulated on the "Le Xue" platform, and quickly do all the preparatory work for spring semester course teaching。Since the outbreak of the epidemic, the platform has added nearly 4,000 classes, covering all undergraduate and postgraduate courses, and serving more than 30,000 students。

Since 2020,The school seized the new opportunity to carry out large-scale online teaching during the epidemic,We will accelerate the construction of informatization and wisdom in teaching,Integrate multiple platforms such as "music learning" and "cloud recording and broadcasting",Create a new "Yanhe Classroom",And deeply integrated with the newly launched "i Beili" APP,Support the construction of a new education system of "data sharing, knowledge interconnection, group intelligence collaboration, and educational wisdom"。In the future, the university will further accelerate the construction of "smart campus", coordinate all kinds of resources, achieve seamless connection between campus space and digital space, and build an efficient, convenient and intelligent information system。

The center of gravity has moved down, and the "reform of the two-level management system of the university and the university" has stimulated internal impetus

The reform of the two-level management system is an important part of further deepening the comprehensive reform and improving the modern university system with Chinese characteristics, and is a key entry point for promoting the modernization of the university governance system and governance capacity。In May 2019, the University Party Committee, in combination with the reality of "double first-class" construction and development, officially issued the "Several Opinions on Promoting the Reform of the Two-level Management System of the University and the University", focusing on five reform measures to promote the downward focus of management and fully stimulate the vitality of the college。

Aiming at the construction goal of "high-quality science", the university signed a responsibility letter for the reform of the management system at two levels with three pilot colleges, namely, the College of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, the College of Mathematics and Statistics and the College of Physics, and officially launched the pilot reform work。On the basis of fully considering the differences and characteristics of the development of pilot colleges, the implementation of "one college, one policy", the school and the college jointly studied and formulated a comprehensive reform plan, and proposed practical and personalized "discharge service" measures。While delegating the authority of disciplines, personnel, teaching and scientific research, the university simultaneously delegates the financial authority, strengthens supervision and guidance, and escorts the reform of the management system at the two levels of the university and the university。

"For many years, the introduction of high-level talents has been a bottleneck restricting the development of science in schools。After the implementation of the two-level reform of the school, the school has more confidence in the introduction of talents, more power to speak in terms of condition support, remarkable results have been achieved in the development of discipline quality, and the school's initiative and enthusiasm are unprecedented high, "Yao Yugui, dean of the School of Physics, said。In this reform, the School of Physics is based on the development reality, takes the construction of talent team as the starting point, strengthens the coordination and coordination of resources, completes the recruitment of 19 new system teachers in 2020, adds 6 "four green" talents, wins the school's annual "special award for team construction", and becomes the beneficiary of reform。

"The reform has effectively integrated the advantageous resources of the college, and also helped relevant teachers to better establish confidence in scientific research and serve the national strategic needs with high-level scientific research results.。Feng Xudong, a young teacher at the College of Chemistry, said so。In the reform of the two-level management system, the vitality of the grass-roots teaching organization has been further stimulated。"The decentralization of teaching reform projects to the Academy allows for more efficient peer review, which not only allows the Academy to fully exercise its professionalism, autonomy and flexibility, but also further improves the Academy's ability to deploy resources。When talking about the impact of the reform, Wang Fei, a famous young teacher in Beijing and a professor at the School of Physics, believes that carrying out evaluation in the same professional field can more accurately grasp the substance of educational reform, which is conducive to discovering educational reform projects that may produce important results and achieving accurate support。

"In the past year, the college has focused on promoting the construction of the system, the management capacity and governance efficiency have been significantly improved, the role of the secondary management institutions of the college has become more real, and the grassroots academic organizations such as teaching and research teams have become more and more dynamic.。Chen Ke, secretary of the Party Committee of the College of Mathematics and Statistics, has a deep understanding of the vitality released by the reform。The reform of the two-level management system has accelerated the development of the college, the key of which is to promote the modernization of the college's governance system and governance ability。Zhang Jiatao, dean of the College of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, also said, "The reform has further consolidated the central position of talent training in the college, the pattern of teaching and research integration and mutual promotion has been initially formed, and the key laboratory of 'Pharmaceutical Molecular Science and Preparation Engineering' of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology has been successfully approved, forming a new subject growth point in the direction of 'expanding medicine'.。The achievements of the College have strengthened our determination to further deepen reform。”

The reform of the two-level management system of the university has realized the "loosening of constraints" for the college, and its status as the main body of running a school has been further highlighted, its internal governance system and governance capacity have been continuously improved and improved, and it has embarked on the "fast track" of development in personnel training, team building, scientific and technological innovation and other aspects.。On this basis, the Party Committee of the university will further summarize experience, expand the pilot, push the reform of the two-level management system of the university to the depth and implementation, continue to improve the university governance system, improve the governance efficiency, and promote the concursion development of the "double first-class" construction。


Face the future,学校党委将坚持以习近平新时代中国特色社会主义思想为指导,Uphold and strengthen the Party's overall leadership,Do not forget the original intention, remember the mission,Strive to transform institutional advantages into governance effectiveness,Effectively promote the modernization of university governance system and governance capacity,This will provide a solid guarantee for accelerating the building of world-class universities with Chinese characteristics。
