A private college in Beijing, whose name sounds very 'auspicious', downgraded the university to a college in order to upgrade to an undergraduate degree

There are many colleges and universities in Beijing, not to mention the general undergraduate colleges, 985 and 211 colleges and universities are also proud of the world. The name of Tsinghua University and Peking University is even more familiar in the minds of candidates. It's simple, but for children from other places, if they want to enter Beijing's colleges and universities, even the most inferior colleges need to get a good score. This is the regional advantage at work.

There are a large number of public colleges and universities in Beijing, while private colleges and universities are less than other places. In 2018, there were only 15 private ordinary colleges and universities in Beijing that were eligible for admission. Among these private colleges and universities, there was one named "auspicious". In order to upgrade For undergraduates, even "university" was changed to "college".

This is Beijing Geely College, the original Beijing Geely University. The "Geely" in the name of Beijing Geely College is not for the sake of auspiciousness, because the school was founded by Geely Group, with the first two of Geely Group's first two Each character is the name according to the standard.

In early 2000, it was called Beijing Geely College, which was the first private college approved by the Ministry of Education. In 2001, it was renamed Beijing Geely University and became a college. In 2002, Beijing Guangming College of Traditional Chinese Medicine was merged. In 2014, with the approval of the Ministry of Education, Beijing Geely University was upgraded to a private undergraduate college. Since then, it has changed from a university to a college. Now it is a university under the jurisdiction of the Beijing Municipal Education Commission.

Beijing Geely College relies on Geely Group to specialize in vehicle engineering, automotive service engineering and other majors. Now it has 8 departments including the Business School, the School of Automotive Engineering, and the European and American International College. The school has over 10,000 students and has hired 2 academicians. There are more than 800 full-time faculty members, including 118 associate professors and Beijing-level high-quality courses in marketing, automobile construction, and business etiquette.

The reason why Beijing Geely College has changed from a "university" to a "college" is that undergraduate colleges have requirements for "university", the scale of the university's schooling must reach a certain amount, and the proportion of graduate students in the school should not be lower than that of full-time students. At the same time, there must be a complete range of disciplines, and the ratio of teachers and scientific research must meet certain standards to be evaluated as a university. However, Beijing Geely Institute was originally a junior college system, and later it was promoted to undergraduate. Many conditions cannot meet the undergraduate degree. For the requirement of "university", it is also a very normal thing to change the name of the university from the specialized college to "college".

Beijing Geely College covers an area of ​​1,300 acres and is located in Changping, Beijing. Although it is not comparable to a public undergraduate in strength, it is a formal private undergraduate after all. Now there are many Yeji universities in Beijing universities, while private universities are rare, and many candidates have been fooled. In the end, Yeji University was completely empty, so when choosing a private college in Beijing, you must keep your eyes open to avoid being deceived.
