As of last night, the financial budget of 75 colleges and universities in China was announced! Among them, the budget of these eight schools exceeds 10 billion. Tsinghua University is still far ahead of other universities with a budget of nearly 30 billion yuan. It is not only 2.7 billion yuan more than last year, but also 10 billion yuan more than Zhejiang University, which ranks second this year.
Eight colleges and universities have a budget of over 10 billion yuan this year
The annual budget of Tsinghua University this year is as high as 29.721 billion yuan, while Zhejiang University, which ranks second, is 19.177 billion yuan, with a difference of 10 billion yuan. Unlike Tsinghua University, which ranked first in the annual budget, Peking University dropped sharply from the second place to the sixth place last year, and its annual budget dropped to 12.554 billion yuan from 19.345 billion yuan in the previous year. However, this year, Peking University's ranking rebounded to the third place, and its budget increased to 19.007 billion yuan.
In addition, Tongji University, which had a budget of more than 10 billion yuan last year, has a budget of less than 10 billion yuan this year. However, there are two new universities with a budget of more than 10 billion yuan this year, both of which are famous universities from central China: Huazhong University of Science and technology and Wuhan University. This has increased the number of universities with budget exceeding 10 billion yuan from seven in recent years to eight, including 29.721 billion yuan from Tsinghua University, 19.177 billion yuan from Zhejiang University, 19.007 billion yuan from Peking University, 17.517 billion yuan from Sun Yat sen University, 15.632 billion yuan from Shanghai Jiaotong University, 12.509 billion yuan from Fudan University, 10.698 billion yuan from Huazhong University of science and technology, and 10.644 billion yuan from Wuhan University. However, on the whole, the budget of Eastern universities is much higher than that of western universities, and that of science and engineering universities is much higher than that of liberal arts universities.
Budget growth of famous liberal arts schools accelerated
Although there is still a big budget gap with universities of science and engineering, the Beijing Youth Daily reporter found that the budget growth of some traditional liberal arts universities this year is relatively large. The most obvious is Beijing Normal University, whose annual budget has soared from 6.612 billion yuan last year to 8.185 billion yuan, an increase of nearly 24%, and its ranking has also risen from 20th last year to 16th. The annual budget of China University of political science and law has increased from 1.35 billion yuan last year to 1.693 billion yuan. In addition, the budgets of Renmin University of China, East China Normal University, Communication University of China and Central University of Finance and economics have also increased significantly this year.
