I Am the President of the University

Many people know that MIT is a famous science and engineering school, but few have noticed that even in this famous school, MIT has a business major.

Wall Street, the famous financial center of the United States, once had an investigation agency conduct a survey on 2,800 frontline and back-office staff of professional investment banks in New York.

Finally, we summarized these 8 most popular universities on Wall Street.

The eighth place, accounting for 1.9%, is the Sloan School of Management at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

The predecessor of Sloan School of Management was Alfred P. Sloan who donated US$5 million in 1952 to establish the School of Industrial Management.

By 1964, the school was renamed the Sloan School of Management.

As for the donor, Alfred Sloan is also well-known. He is known as the first successful professional manager and the eighth president of General Motors.

Being in MIT, the Swan School of Management is naturally influenced by the school's science and engineering disciplines, and is therefore more popular among engineering companies.

"Dr. Huang Lan?"

After listening to Professor Leonard's words, Chen Hao repeated the name he just heard.

"Yes, she was the first thing I thought of after receiving your email. There are many talents who understand both technology and finance, but her abilities definitely meet your requirements." Leonard smiled.

32 years old, Chinese, with a bachelor's and master's degree from MIT and a doctorate from Columbia University Business School. Currently working in the investment banking department of Goldman Sachs China as a manager.

To be honest, Chen Hao was indeed a little moved.

"I believe you can convince her if you take action." Professor Leonard said easily.

"Hahaha, professor, you said so, then I will definitely not let you down." Chen Hao also said with confidence.

There will always be a way, as long as the candidate is confirmed, it will be easier.

"Thank you so much, Professor Leonard.\\u001d" After getting the other party's contact information, Chen Hao said sincerely.

"If you want to thank old Leonard, then go back to MIT more often." Professor Leonard joked.

As a principal, Professor Leonard is quite enthusiastic about things like Chen Hao. After all, it is also his obligation as a principal to build relationships between alumni.

How important is a good university?

The better the university, the bigger its platform. \\b

When you use alumni resources, you will know how huge and valuable this resource is.

After the chat was over, Chen Hao turned around and saw Qian Jiahui with a resentful look on his face, and asked in confusion: "Jiahui, what's wrong with you?"

Qian Jiahui seemed to be about to say something just now, but a call from Professor Leonard came in at the right time...

Qian Jiahui's cheeks were bulging, and his mouth was dry, like a little bitch with seven or eight peanuts in his mouth, which was really cute.

When the other party was angry, Chen Hao actually had the urge to pinch Qian Jiahui's cheek.

"No, I'm fine, I'm fine!" Qian Jiahui gritted his teeth and said seriously.

"Is everything okay?" Chen Hao hesitated for a moment, then carefully looked at Qian Jiahui's face.

"It's okay!" Qian Jiahui responded expressionlessly.

"It's okay. It's getting late. Can you still go back to your dormitory?" Chen Hao raised his wrist and glanced at his watch. It was already past 1 o'clock. Is there any access control at Ludao University?

He thought for a while and added: "If I can't go back to the dormitory..."

When Qian Jiahui heard this, he couldn't help but look over. His eyes were filled with excitement, shyness, shyness, eagerness, panic, anxiety, and excitement.

But what Chen Hao said next made her face fall instantly.

"If you can't go back to the dormitory, I'll take you to Grandpa Qian's place." Chen Hao scratched his head and said.

"No! We Luda can come back late!" Qian Jiahui said with a dark face, looking like he was not in a good mood.

Chen Hao saw Qian Jiahui's pace suddenly speeding up and quickly followed him.

I couldn't help but murmur in my heart.

…

I haven't finished writing yet, I'm almost done, wait a moment.

…

This student is Lu Weicong, who is in Grade 10 in Yuanpei. After completing the mathematics professional course, he hopes to conduct cross-learning between mathematics and computer subjects, so he applied for an extension. According to Yuanpei’s teaching plan, students enjoy a flexible academic system and can complete undergraduate education in 3 to 6 years. However, the reason why the school's academic affairs department did not grant the extension was that the student's graduation credits had been completed.

After coordination, Lu Weicong’s application was finally approved. However, this matter still caused subsequent discussions within Yuanpei: Yuanpei has not escaped the trouble of the "dual-track system", and some of the college's teaching systems do not receive effective administrative protection at the school level.

Although the "dual-track system" has not completely disappeared over time, Xu Chongren said that Yuanpei College is a model based on the diversification of student sources that is beneficial to the improvement of undergraduate education. Yuanpei’s reform targets two prominent problems in higher education: students enter professional studies too early, resulting in a narrow range of knowledge; and most students blindly choose majors, resulting in gaps in their studies.

"Peking University is about cultivating the same students into different people." Xu Chongren said that Yuanpei provides students with more choices. It may not be suitable for all students, but it has its necessity. "

4. Marginalization of general education courses

Whether "general knowledge" or "liberal education" literally emphasizes broad knowledge. When Chinese universities carry out general education, a common practice is to require students to take elective courses outside their major.

Peking University offers five major categories of general elective courses, covering mathematics and natural sciences, social sciences, philosophy and psychology, history, linguistics, literature and art. Students must complete at least one course in each category to graduate.

This approach is partly based on the curriculum of elite American universities, the most well-known of which is the University of Chicago's "core courses" for junior students.

This approach is partly based on the curriculum of elite American universities, the most well-known of which is the University of Chicago's "core courses" for junior students.

The core curriculum includes three major categories of subjects: humanities, mathematics and natural sciences, and social sciences. It emphasizes the Western classical humanistic tradition, classic reading, and critical writing. It has a heavy load and high standards. It is by no means something that students can just put in a little effort outside of professional courses. It is passable, so students at the University of Chicago actually start to focus all their energy on their major courses in their third year.

In comparison, a Peking University student needs to complete 140 credits to graduate, and general elective courses only account for 16 credits. The rest are required professional courses, professional elective courses, English courses, and political courses.

In the lower grades, students spend most of their energy on professional courses, while in the upper grades they are busy with internships, job hunting, applying for overseas graduate schools and graduation thesis. The effective teaching time of the university is actually only three years.
