To further coordinate planning and solidly advance preparations for the upcoming sixth round of discipline evaluation, the School of Economics and Management held a discipline development promotion meeting on March 14, 2025, in Room B503. School leadership, discipline heads, department chairs and secretaries, as well as office directors, gathered to focus on the critical and challenging aspects of discipline construction. Through a closed-loop mechanism of “self-assessment reports – collective consultation – task allocation – full-team collaboration,” the meeting ensured on-site implementation of tasks and progress in meeting evaluation indicators.
At the beginning of the meeting, Dean Ding Zhihua emphasized that the current period marks both the closing year of the 14th Five-Year Plan and a key window for planning the 15th Five-Year Plan, while also being the final year for data collection in the sixth round of discipline evaluations. He noted that there may still be gaps compared to peer institutions in terms of high-level talent, major projects, top-tier publications, and prestigious academic awards. The purpose of the meeting was to confront these issues head-on, identify gaps and set targets to guide the strategic development of each discipline.
Subsequently, representatives from the three first-level disciplines—Management Science and Engineering, Business Administration, and Applied Economics—as well as the three professional master’s programs—MBA, MPAcc, and Asset Evaluation—gave detailed reports. Each discipline leader presented their current development status, achievements, challenges, and areas requiring school support. They focused on key indicators from the fifth-round discipline evaluations, Soft Science ranking data, and expert feedback from degree authorization reviews. By benchmarking against top institutions, they systematically analyzed core competitiveness and key priorities for future development, clearly outlining next steps and proposed measures.
Members of the School’s leadership team provided responses and suggestions based on their areas of oversight and the specific issues raised in the presentations. Party Secretary Li Xinchun recommended that each discipline conduct horizontal comparisons with domestic counterparts and vertical comparisons using five-year trend data, aiming to identify weaknesses and plan improvements in advance.
In his concluding remarks, Dean Ding Zhihua laid out three key directives:
Focus on Shortcomings: Based on expert opinions and discipline strategy discussions, create a list of problems and targeted actions, aiming for breakthroughs in core curriculum design, textbook development, high-quality publications, and major research projects.
Support Young Faculty Development: Encourage departments to build academic teams and foster a supportive, collaborative, and upward-learning academic environment.
Optimize Management Mechanisms: By adjusting resource allocation and revising policies, better mobilize faculty motivation and drive high-quality development across the School.
