Recently, Japan’s Tokyo Institute of Technology and Tokyo Medical and Dental University officially reached a merger agreement. According to the agreement, the two world famous universities will be completely merged into one university within two years, and the goal of this new university is to become a university. Universities with the world's top research capabilities, this merger is still relatively important for the entire Asian universities, and this merger has actually allowed Tokyo Institute of Technology, which is more powerful, to have medicine. Over the years, it has gained strength through mergers In fact, there are more than one good medical colleges and universities.
Before the merger of these two world-renowned universities, Yangming University and Jiaotong University in Taiwan, my country merged to form a new Yangming Jiaotong University, which greatly strengthened the strength of this new university in a short period of time A big improvement, which also allows Taiwan's Jiaotong University to have a strong medical science. I have to say that this kind of merger seems to be a pretty good merger at this stage, especially the depth between engineering and medicine. Cooperation and exchanges can bring a lot of good prospects for the development of scientific research in the future.
In fact, good medical strength was obtained through mergers. In the wave of mergers of colleges and universities in mainland my country at the end of the last century and the beginning of this century, a large number of colleges and universities have achieved this transformation. Among these colleges and universities, there are huge Unparalleled universities Peking University , Zhejiang University , Shanghai Jiao Tong University and Fudan University and other colleges and universities, I have to say that Taiwan and Japan’s Tokyo Institute of Technology are more than 20 years behind the pace .
The development process of colleges and universities in the mainland is actually quite different from that of Japan and Taiwan. At present, my country does not support the merger of colleges and universities to realize the construction of medicine. In this process, many medical colleges and universities have emerged. The idea of merging local top engineering colleges and universities did not continue in the end, and the Ministry of Education of my country has made it clear that it does not support the merger of undergraduate colleges at this stage.
Under such circumstances, some colleges and universities in our country that want to develop medicine can only have medicine through their own construction. For example, Dalian University of Technology started to build medicine in the past two years, but this university is all from scratch Although there are some good medical universities in the local area, and people from all walks of life have suggested that the medical construction of Dalian University of Technology should be completed by merging these two universities, but such a merger proposal will not be taken into consideration. .
At the stage of its realization, when top universities around the world began to deploy medicine, it also showed the importance of medicine. Many people attribute the importance of medicine to the fact that medicine is easier to publish papers and obtain world rankings. This statement is actually very superficial. The development and importance of medicine mainly depend on the development of the world at this stage. People pay more and more attention to health. It may be that medicine is indeed easier to produce papers than other disciplines. But this is not the core reason for promoting the construction of medicine in colleges and universities.
There is another reason why medicine is becoming more and more important, that is, the intersection between disciplines is becoming more and more intensive and deepening. Many research results in the medical field need some help from other disciplines, and some medical research results are not It can promote the progress of other disciplines, which makes the cooperation between various engineering disciplines and medicine more in-depth. Under such circumstances, my country actually launched interdisciplinary in time. These interdisciplinary disciplines will inevitably have a lot of potential in the future related to medicine.
