Outstanding individuals and units were also commended at the meeting.
The conference kicked off with the solemn "National Anthem".
Chen Ligen delivered a conference report titled "Forging ahead and striding forward to a world-class university with agricultural characteristics", and shared with all Nannong teachers why Nannong has been successful in the past and how Nannong can continue to succeed in the future.
The first part of the report summarizes the brilliant achievements and successful experiences of Nannong in the 120-year history of running a school, reviews Nannong's "history" with the "Four Steps Out", and answers why Nannong can succeed. The report pointed out that at the beginning of the 20th century, Nannong shared the destiny with the country and the nation, and emerged from internal and external troubles. After the founding of New China, Nannong and New China grew up together and came out of hard work. Nannong people strived to be the first in the cause of ploughing the land. After the reform and opening up, Nannong kept pace with the reform and opening up and emerged from the rapid development. Nannong people bravely stood at the forefront of the reform and innovation journey. Since the beginning of the new century, Nannong has forged ahead together with the new century, and has emerged from the struggle and exploration of building a high-level research university. Nannong people are determined to be first-class on the road of serving the country and the people. The report pointed out that it is necessary to strengthen the era interpretation of the Nannong spirit of "honesty, simplicity, diligence and benevolence", and integrate the sincerity of strengthening farmers and serving the country, the will to work hard, the fighting spirit to dare to be the first, and the mind of the supremacy of the people into the spiritual blood of Nannong people.
The second part of the report revolves around the high trust of the party and the state on higher education and the people's expectations for higher education. Standing at a new starting point for the development of the school, it answers "What is Nannong's mission?" "What is Nannong's goal? "How far is Nannong from being world-class?". The report pointed out that "taking Lide and cultivating people as the foundation, and taking strong and prosperous agriculture as our own responsibility" is the mission of Nannong, and "a world-class university with agricultural characteristics" is the development goal of the school in the new era. The report interprets the school's "1335" development strategy in detail, benchmarks the common features of "world-class universities", and analyzes the gap between Nannong and world-class universities. The report uses the rich practice of Nannong people to build morality, strengthen agriculture, create a first-class, and strive for a first-class, to inspire the majority of faculty and staff to further enhance the consciousness and confidence of building a world-class university with agricultural characteristics.
The third part of the report, combined with the current development of the school, expounds the focus of achieving high-quality development of the school from the three aspects of "having first-class people, doing first-class things, and opening a first-class road".
The report believes that "to have first-class people", on the one hand, it is necessary to do a good job in building a talent team, attracting talents accurately, focusing on the school's development goals, and introducing and deploying talents with a plan, focus, and intention; it is necessary to use talents meticulously and improve talents. The value realization mechanism will give full play to the role of the baton of talent evaluation and performance appraisal, make the system the core of "using people well", and allow the majority of teachers to enjoy the dividends of common struggle in the development of the school. "Having first-class people", on the other hand, is talent training, the core of which is to clarify how to train people and what kind of people to train. The school must establish a sense of benchmarking in all aspects of educating people, such as enrollment, training, and employment. Teachers must strictly require themselves in accordance with the standard of "four good teachers" proposed by General Secretary Xi Jinping, and in every link of education. Play a positive role and cultivate outstanding talents in the field of "agriculture, rural areas and farmers".
The report pointed out that "to do first-class things", firstly, to build first-class disciplines, to build stronger disciplines, to build more interdisciplinary disciplines, and to build a better disciplinary ecosystem. The second is to produce more first-class innovation achievements, to be mission-oriented, to solve real problems, to be a real platform, real team, real projects, and real results, and to create a hard-core“big platform, big project, and big result”for scientific and technological innovation. Strength, explore the Nannong model that serves rural revitalization, and launch a number of influential new social service programs and models. The third is to step up to a world-class stage, from "inviting in" to "integrating in", to effectively utilize global high-quality resources; from "going out" to "taking root", to effectively serve the overall situation of the country's foreign affairs and diplomacy; The transformation of "promoting domestic from outside" to "win-win inside and outside" helps the country to enhance its voice in global agricultural governance.
The report emphasizes that "opening a first-class road" requires creating a first-class governance system, strengthening the party's leadership, strengthening the construction of grass-roots party organizations and cadres, improving and driving the construction of the school's governance system, and improving governance capabilities to make it consistent with "building first-class". It is necessary to develop a first-class conditional foundation, speed up the construction of the new campus in Jiangbei, turn Nannong people’s dream of building a new campus into reality as soon as possible, and make the new campus a key support for Nannong’s upgrading and becoming first-class.
Chen Fadi made a summary of the conference on the topic of "Unswervingly Promote Talents to Strengthen Schools, Reform and Rejuvenate Schools, and Culture Honors Schools, and Accelerate the Construction of World-Class Universities with Agricultural Characteristics". Summarizing how to unify thoughts and actions into the development goal of "a world-class university with agricultural characteristics", three "unswerving" requirements are put forward.
First, to build a world-class university with agricultural characteristics, we must unswervingly implement the strategy of strengthening the university by talents. Chen Fadi said that the strategy of strengthening the school with talents is the most fundamental strategy of the school at any time. To form "the development and future of Nannong depends on talents, and the key to shortening the gap between Nannong and benchmark universities lies in talents, and it is necessary to gather the strength of the whole school to escort talents. " consensus. All units and colleges should be problem-oriented, identify breakthroughs, fully tap, fully absorb, and rationally use outstanding talents, and actively establish a sense of goals, urgency, and teamwork, so that people have opportunities, people have security, and talents can be united. .
Second, to build a world-class university with agricultural characteristics, we must unswervingly follow the road of reform and revitalization. Chen Fadi pointed out that it is necessary to promote the modernization of school governance system and governance capacity with systematic thinking, and promote the reform of "four key directions": deepening "institutional reform" to add vitality to development; optimizing "evaluation reform" to strengthen development; refinement "Reform of delegating power, regulating and serving" to increase momentum for development; to strengthen "reform of supervision system" to improve efficiency for development. In the face of reform, we must dare to turn inward and eliminate accumulated malpractices. Only by "breaking the ice" in thinking can we "break through" in action. We must overcome the misunderstanding of "one acre and three parts of land", let alone short-term interests. , can withstand the pains of reform, in order to share the development dividends.
Third, in order to build a world-class university with agricultural characteristics, we must unswervingly cultivate a sense of cultural honor. Chen Fadi emphasized that the school is about to celebrate its 120th anniversary this year. It is necessary to take the school celebration as an opportunity to build a "spiritual community" and build a Nannong who dares to take responsibility; build a "knowledge community" and build a Nannong that is good at innovation; build a "teacher-student community" , to build a Nannong pursuit of happiness, so as to further condense, summarize and carry forward the spirit and culture of Nannong, and create a harmonious development atmosphere for the realization of the "Nannong Dream".
