Chapter 538: Sensational
The audience ushered in an incredible exclamation, and after a short period of silence, the entire open-air press conference erupted in thunderous applause, and many parents were excited beyond words.
Even some senior high school students who are watching the live broadcast and have poor families think they are dreaming when they see this. slapped himself hard, this was not a dream, and he screamed excitedly in an instant.
Students all over the country are boiling, especially those from poor families.
"This is an anomaly, the education community is so disturbed by him, there is going to be a big earthquake." I thought that a veteran in the education industry said with emotion.
"I don't know how many high-quality students can be grabbed for this tuition-free alone, as long as the faculty is strong, the outstanding poor students will inevitably choose the coastline university, and how can the 165 billion annual budget teachers be worse?"
"Yes, even if I don't know the treatment, I want to work and teach at Shoreline University."
"165 billion he spends like this? You can't spend it like this if you have money! ”
"The problem is money, and it can only be solved with money, yes, but the problem is that only coastline universities in the world can solve it with money, and other universities can't do it at all."
"It really confirms the Internet buzzword, you can really do whatever you want with money."
In fact, it was confirmed that Ye Hua would most likely cause some ups and downs in the education industry, but he definitely did not expect that he would bomb the entire education circle, especially the higher education industry, which would directly cause great changes.
More than 5,000 parents and students were excited, and the applause lasted for a long time.
If other private universities tell parents that they are free of tuition, they will never believe it, because private universities are generally run as enterprises to make money.
But Coastline University is obviously a non-profit private university, and this kind of budget, even if it is given a hundred years, it may not be possible for the university itself to be able to maintain its income and expenses, and it is completely different from Ye Hua's mouth.
Finally, the thunderous applause fell in a few minutes, Ye Hua said again: "Second, in terms of employment orientation, we should also pay attention to research-oriented talents, as long as you can learn something, you are not afraid of no employment, to tell the truth, just the development of the life light of the coastline group, now there are more than 150,000 jobs to be employed, I am looking for talents all over the world, I am going crazy, no, so I can only run my own university." ”
The last sentence made the audience laugh, everyone was caught off guard, and netizens who ate melons laughed even more, and Principal Ye pretended to have nothing to do with others.
In the future, someone asked under what circumstances Shoreline University was founded, well, yes.
"Third, it is necessary to create a mechanism conducive to the transformation of scientific research achievements, so that people engaged in scientific research can also become rich, so that the phenomenon of 'engaging in scientific research means being poor' can be eliminated, at least this phenomenon must be eliminated in our coastline university." Ye Hua said this sentence in an extremely firm tone, which attracted overwhelming applause from the audience.
In the following reporter's question session, the most concerned is the question of how to spend the terrifying budget of 165 billion yuan of Coastline University, and the issue that is more concerned about this focus is the problem of university research funding.
In this regard, Ye Hua answered these questions from the media one by one.
University staff are complex, but they are divided into three main categories: teachers, managers, and service positions.
Shoreline University has set up an intramural research fund pool, and the funds for applying for project research are allocated by the fund pool, involving more than 20 scientific research billing budget decentralization, but it is limited to the field of basic science and technology research, because it involves the most distinctive system of exemption from examination and allocation.
For other categories, such as the School of Economics and Management, the funding of sub-disciplines all need to be reviewed, and the funding is relatively small, and students who choose this kind of major are not free of tuition, and the free tuition is limited to the field of scientific research, and the coastline university is certainly not short of this money, but it is also to highlight the importance of basic research, mainly to train scientists and engineers, rather than white-collar workers.
If it weren't for the fact that the Coastline Group also needed white-collar jobs, Ye Hua actually wanted to cut off these branches and directly establish a more pure science and technology science and technology university.
One of the biggest highlights is that the transfer funds are linked to the professional titles of scientific and educational personnel, and the teaching level of Coastline University is divided into "one to thirteen levels", according to four categories from professor, associate professor, lecturer and teaching assistant from high to low.
Among them, professors are divided into "one final four levels", in the coastline university, the first of which is a tenured professor, but also an academician level, but the academician university has no right to evaluate and establish, and the conditions are extremely high, in short, to become a tenured professor of the coastline university must be an academician level or the world's top scholars.
Tenured professors ensure the independence of excellent researchers, as long as they get the title of tenured professor, as long as they don't do anything out of the ordinary, such as academic fraud, serious criminal offenses, etc., the coastline university can hardly dismiss him, tenured professors want to study the subject is completely free, within a year can have less than 300 million yuan of exempt research funds, after the application of the research fund pool directly exempt from the examination and allocation, as long as it is not used for secondary operation, the school can not directly veto it.
The so-called secondary operation, to put it bluntly, means that the tenured professor will give the research funds to a third party for other purposes, and once investigated, it will be regarded as academic fraud, and the tenured professor and his treatment will be cancelled or even dismissed.
In addition to the above treatment, in addition, high salaries and long vacations or even a full year of vacation can make it easier to focus on research, but this system of referring to tenured professors in the United States will also lead to the lack of work of professors after staying up to this position, and the gradual saturation of tenured professorships.
But then again, among the schools that are a little higher, don't say that the coastline university run by Ye Hua is aiming for the world's super-first-class universities. There are very few people who live a retirement life every day after getting the title of tenured professor, and there are really very few people.
At this time, there are still a large number of students under a tenured professor waiting for you to get him food, and then there are special professors or outstanding professors to be evaluated, and there are still members of this award and that member outside the school.
Even for those super bulls who have won any awards, including the Nobel Prize, the Fields Medal, and the Turing Award, they still have to think about how future generations will evaluate him when they write history, and academic research is endless.
Undoubtedly, this is an unparalleled attraction for the world's top research scholars, just imagine the equivalent of receiving more than $40 million a year without conditions, and with this money, you can study whatever you want, which is not a treatment in universities around the world.
And this is an exempt funding application, and Shoreline University now has nothing but money.
Some basic scientific research projects that often cost hundreds of millions of dollars or even billions of dollars cannot be supported by other universities or scientific research institutions, and capital is not interested in basic scientific research, but it must be the most probable in the coastline university, because there is money, yes, there is money!
Tenured professors are followed by first-level professors, and they are also academician levels, which are national treasure-level talents, many universities do not have academician-level professors, and the total number of second-level professors is relatively small, and third-level and fourth-level professors are the main body of university full professors.
First-level professors can enjoy a research fund of less than 100 million yuan within one year, and the research fund pool is directly exempted from examination and allocated after application.
Second-level professors can enjoy 70 million yuan of research funds exempted from examination.
Level 3 and Level 4 professors can enjoy 30 million yuan of research funding for exemption.
Levels 5 to 7 are the three levels of associate professors from high to low, and other salaries are different, all of which enjoy 10 million yuan of exempt research funds.
Grades 8 to 10 are the three levels of lecturers from high to low, and the other treatments are different, and they all enjoy 3 million yuan of exempt research funds.
Grades 11 to 13 are the three levels of teaching assistants from high to low, and the other treatments are different, and they all enjoy 1 million yuan of exempt research funds.
Of course, there is no real achievement in the level of any title, and the level of an assistant professor is not necessarily worse than a full professor, not to mention that Ye Hua's ultimate goal is to recruit young geniuses from all over the world.
At the existing universities in Japan, as long as the professor is hired, he can start with a lecturer and evaluate the title step by step, and even if he does nothing, he can become an associate professor before retirement.
Coastline University is almost self-contained, and the appointment of professors is mainly based on the quality of years and academic achievements as the evaluation criteria, and generally requires the teacher to move up the ladder every five years, and if he cannot be rated with a higher title, the teacher will be dismissed.
This is undoubtedly a cruel system of "promotion or departure" to study European and American universities, and the coastline university will give them a buffer time of a year and a half to find a new job after being dismissed.
The core of professor promotion at Coastline University is that ability takes precedence over seniority, and level takes precedence over diploma.
The index of evaluation is based on the published papers and works, but there is no limit on the number of words and the number of words, Einstein's paper is not a few pages, the photoelectric effect won the Nobel Prize, and the theory of relativity is not a few pages, but the significance of modern physics does not need to be repeated.
It is worth mentioning that the role of interpersonal relationships in Coastline University is minimal, or even negligible, if there is no real hard work, no matter how much the relationship is done, it is useless, because Ye Hua of Coastline University has the final say, unless he can get the relationship to Ye Hua, even so, Ye Hua will never do anything beyond the principle in academics.
In addition, the research fund pool of Coastline University is also open to students of the school, yes, students can also apply, but students need to be reviewed when applying for funding for research, and there is no exemption mechanism.
Graduate students may even have their own labs, which is nothing new in the future at Shoreline University, in a word, as long as you prove to the school that you are good enough, other problems at other schools at Shoreline University are definitely not a problem.
