The number of pilot colleges and universities of the Strong Foundation Program has increased to 39

This year, the admissions policies of multiple schools have changed, with more diverse majors and more accurate selection

　　Recently, 30 colleges and universities across the country have successively released the 2022 strong foundation plan enrollment plan.

As an important part of the special type of enrollment in the college entrance examination and an innovative model for the country to cultivate talents in basic disciplines, the Strong Foundation Plan has attracted the attention of teachers, students and parents as soon as it was released.

It is worth noting that this year's strong foundation plan has added 3 pilot colleges and universities, and many schools have also adjusted their enrollment majors and enrollment plans.

Three new colleges and universities were added, and emerging majors were selected

　　On March 24, the Ministry of Education announced the launch of the 2022 Strong Foundation Program enrollment, revealing that three new enrollment pilot universities will be added this year, namely Northeastern University, Hunan University, and Northwest Agriculture and Forestry University. 36 colleges and universities, including Tsinghua University, Beijing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, etc., have entered the pilot program. The total number of strong-based colleges and universities that college entrance examination candidates can choose this year has reached 39.

At present, the three newly added pilot colleges and universities have all issued enrollment brochures.

　　Among them, the enrollment major of Northeastern University's Qiangji Program is automation, Hunan University's enrollment major is chemistry, and Northwest Agriculture and Forestry University's enrollment major is biological breeding, which are divided into seed science and engineering (biological breeding) and animal science (biological breeding). The school's "ace" major.

　　Compared with the previous two years, the enrollment of the strong foundation plan was mainly based on basic disciplines. This year, some colleges and universities have added some new interdisciplinary majors and strong disciplines related to basic disciplines, breaking through the limitations of simple basic disciplines.

For example, Beijing Institute of Technology has added the recently established intelligent unmanned system technology on the basis of mathematics and applied mathematics, applied physics, chemistry, and engineering mechanics in previous years; Northwestern Polytechnical University is in mathematics, applied physics, chemistry, etc. In addition, it is the first time to enroll in the aerospace category, and it is emphasized in the admissions brochure that it will target the frontier and key areas of aerospace science and technology, and is committed to building the world's aerospace talent training and scientific and technological innovation highland.

The selection of these emerging disciplines and interdisciplinary disciplines is a strong response from colleges and universities to the country's in-depth promotion of interdisciplinary integration and interdisciplinary incubation construction, and the cultivation of compound innovative talents who are inter-integrated in the new era of humanities, science and technology.

The finalists are not only based on the total score of the college entrance examination

　　The admission methods of the strong foundation plan are divided into two categories. One is based on comprehensive scores (the proportion of college entrance examination scores shall not be lower than 85%) and candidates’ volunteers, from high to low. Candidates with outstanding talent and performance can be shortlisted.

For the entry criteria of the first category of candidates, some colleges and universities have changed the method of sorting only by the total score of the college entrance examination.

For example, in 2021, Beijing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics has adjusted the standard as follows: "Shortlisted scores = key subjects in the college entrance examination score (sum) * 1.2 + the sum of the college entrance examination scores in other subjects".

This year, Beijing Institute of Technology also emphasizes the single-subject score of mathematics, setting "selection score = college entrance examination score (excluding policy bonus points) + college entrance examination mathematics single subject score * 0.2".

The targeted adjustment of the standard reflects the strong purpose of the strong foundation plan for the selection of talents.

　　In terms of the proportion of finalists, colleges and universities will generally expand in 2021, which will improve the implementation of the strong foundation plan.

This year, most colleges and universities still maintain the situation of last year, and some colleges and universities have tightened them.

The reporter combed and found that among the college admissions plans that have released plans this year, the standards for the finalist lines of Sun Yat-sen University, South China University of Technology, Ocean University of China, Lanzhou University, Beijing Institute of Technology, Chongqing University, Northwestern Polytechnical University, and Wuhan University remain the same as last year. However, Shandong University has reduced the number of shortlisted places from 6 times the provincial and municipal plan last year to 5 times this year.

　　Colleges and universities also pay more attention to the examination of candidates' physical quality. Physical examination results are not included in the school examination results, but participation and qualification will directly affect the final admission.

Sun Yat-sen University, Chongqing University, Hunan University, Northwest Agriculture and Forestry University, and Shandong University all clearly stipulated this year that those who did not apply for exemption from the physical education subject test (physical fitness test) but did not participate, and those who failed the test could not be admitted to the Qiangji Program; Wuhan The university and South China University of Technology require that those who fail the physical education test or physical fitness test cannot enter the next round of school tests.

Please pay attention to these adjustments in Guangdong pilot universities

　　Sun Yat-Sen University and South China University of Technology are two pilot universities in Guangdong Province that have implemented the Strong Foundation Program.

According to the reporter's review, from the first year of implementation in 2020 to this year, the two schools have made partial adjustments in the selection of majors, the proportion of finalists, the subjects selected for examination, and the confirmation of procedures.

　　In terms of filling in the majors, both colleges and universities have set a limit on the application of candidates.

Sun Yat-Sen University has reduced the number of majors to be filled in, from 2020 allowing candidates to fill in at most 3 majors to only 1 major this year, and South China University of Technology has always allowed candidates to fill in only 1 major.

This reminds candidates to think carefully when choosing a major, and make a precise choice based on their interests and abilities.

　　This year, the two colleges still determine the list of shortlisted candidates for each province based on six times the number of provincial and sub-specialty enrollment plans, giving more applicants the opportunity to demonstrate their abilities.

In terms of enrollment majors, South China University of Technology still only offers science majors, including mathematics, chemistry and biotechnology, while Sun Yat-sen University has 10 majors, including Chinese language and literature (paleography), history, philosophy, mathematics and applied mathematics, physics, chemistry, biological sciences, ecology, basic medicine, theoretical and applied mechanics.

　　Whether it is literature and history or science and engineering majors, compared with 2020, the two colleges and universities have made some adjustments to the selected subjects when recruiting candidates for the strong foundation plan.

In terms of literature and history majors, Sun Yat-sen University's admission requirements for history majors have changed from the requirement in 2020 that candidates from provinces with comprehensive reform of the college entrance examination can choose one from history or geography, and now must choose history; the Chinese language and literature major originally required to choose history This year, there are no restrictions on the subjects to be selected for candidates from the "3+3" provinces.

In the science and engineering majors, when the college entrance examination comprehensive reform province candidates, the chemistry major of South China University of Technology said that it will not recruit in 2020. This year, the major will recruit "3+3" candidates for chemistry and "physics + chemistry". "3+1+2" candidates; in 2020, the biological sciences and ecology of Sun Yat-sen University require physics, chemistry, and biology to choose one from three in any province. This year, "3+1+2" candidates are required to choose physics as their first choice. It is also necessary to choose chemistry or biology, and the chemistry major has changed from "choose one" of physics and chemistry to "both".

　　In addition, candidates need to be reminded that, unlike the registration in 2020, the two colleges and universities have also set up a registration confirmation link this year, requiring candidates to log in to the registration platform after the college entrance examination to confirm registration and sign a letter of commitment to reduce blind registration.
