What was the result of the West Lake University, which was built at a cost of 1 billion yuan and threatened to "hang" Tsinghua Peking University for five years?

Speaking of West Lake University, I believe many people are not familiar with it, or even have never heard of it. It seems to be a relatively unknown school. West Lake University is the pioneer of private schools, the originator, and also a private research university, not for profit, but only for training talents.

West Lake University was founded by Shi Yigong, the president of Tsinghua University, with a huge investment of 2 billion yuan. He also threatened to surpass Tsinghua University and Peking University in five years. What was the result after the completion of West Lake University? Let's take a look. West Lake University is located in West Lake, Hangzhou, and named as West Lake University

Shi Yigong, the founder of West Lake University, is the vice president of Tsinghua University, and the first president of West Lake University is Shi Yigong. There are some differences between West Lake University and other institutions of higher learning. West Lake University has not only won the key support of the state, but also only recruited postdoctoral people. The threshold is extremely high. It can be seen that West Lake University is still very strong.

West Lake University will not recruit undergraduates from 217 to 221. The training plan of Shi Yigong is to recruit only doctors in three years. Because it accepts doctoral students, the threshold of this West Lake University is very high, and the people who can enter this university must be very powerful, which has also attracted the attention of many academics. Shi Yigong also hopes to invest 2 billion yuan in ten years to make West Lake University bigger and stronger. West Lake University has only three colleges, which is different from other universities. West Lake University has broken people's perception that private schools are not as good as public schools

As far as the current university fees are concerned, the fees charged by private schools are much more expensive than those charged by public schools, and the teacher resources of private schools are not as good as those of public schools. It seems that the students enrolled by private schools are not as good as those of public schools.

However, since the establishment of West Lake University, it has broken people's perception that private schools are not as good as public schools. Because all the students enrolled by West Lake University are doctoral students, it is said that West Lake University is the first private school, and private schools can also be excellent.

Many people are still skeptical about West Lake University, because can this newly established university immediately catch up with the century-old universities like Tsinghua and Peking University? The possibility is not great, but the future of West Lake University is still very good.

Today, West Lake University has built four provincial key laboratories and five university-level scientific research platforms, which has undertaken the important task of building a platform for life and health science and technology innovation in Zhejiang Province. In the field of life sciences, * * * has undertaken 23 national projects and added 11 emergency projects to tackle the epidemic in COVID-19. ? Views on the future of West Lake University

West Lake University is a university with great potential, because it is the first private university in China. In China, there is basically no good private university. "Expensive tuition, poor students and poor teachers" once became synonymous with private universities, but abroad, many top world-class universities are private.

As a private university with strong teachers, West Lake University has just changed our views on private universities to a certain extent, and at the same time, it has also made our private universities in China go to the world and let people all over the world know that we also have such an excellent private university.

What's more, West Lake University has great potential, financial support from donations from all walks of life, and many scientists teach in the school, so it can be described as a "potential stock". Although its development has not reached the height of "catching up with Tsinghua Peking University in five years", people are still looking forward to it, because its founding funds are sufficient, its founders have academic ability, its development direction is right, and its establishment is recognized and supported by all walks of life. ?
