The establishment of the Academy of Social Sciences and the Academy of Engineering Sciences represents the beginning of formalization of scientific research in Shandong.
After everyone's deliberation, Jiang Cai will be the president of the Academy of Social Sciences.
"The younger generation is less talented and less qualified, and may not be able to take on such a heavy responsibility. It is far more suitable than the younger generation to bear such a heavy responsibility. With the elders in front of me, I am far more suitable than the younger generation."
Jiang Caicheng was horrified and had no idea that he would be able to serve as the dean.
Liu Zongzhou was very open-minded about this.
"Runong is capable of doing things, fair in dealing with matters, and he is quite insightful in academic matters. He is far more suitable to serve as the dean of the Academy of Social Sciences than I am."

He looked at Jiang Cai again and said earnestly: "Today's viewing of Mr. Galilei's work is indeed a true insight. I have another epiphany. I can't say that I have to immerse myself in research and have no interest in worldly things. It's better for you to take on all the work of the Academy of Social Sciences. good."
Having said that, Jiang Cai also understood the painstaking efforts of Zuo Menggeng and Liu Zongzhou.
"Please rest assured, commander-in-chief and Nian Taigong, that this junior will do his best to preside over the work of the Academy of Social Sciences."
The dean of the Academy of Engineering Sciences was elected by Wang Yu after being elected by everyone.
Wang Xi had served as an administrative official, and he himself had solid knowledge, and he was a master in physics.
This is an administrative and academic powerhouse.
As for the vice president of the Academy of Engineering, everyone unanimously recommended Galileo without any prejudice.
This Western scholar who cannot yet speak Chinese has conquered everyone with his knowledge.
After settling the two academies, Zuo Menggeng began to chair meetings on the education system again.
"I believe everyone already knows the news about the establishment of the two academies. The two academies are the highest fields of academic scientific research in Shandong, and it is the job and responsibility of your education system to provide enough talents for the two academies."
At the meeting, Zuo Menggeng made a clear statement and directly clarified the current tasks of the education system.
If the two institutions are castles in the air, then the education system is the cornerstone of support.
Where do the academicians of the two houses come from?
In addition to those who are making achievements in various fields today, the future must be cultivated from the education system.
At the same time, academicians are scarce after all, and more talents are needed for specific research work.
As for how to build the education system, Zuo Mengeng and Xu Ruolin had already had a disagreement.
Xu Ruolin took over the chair and began to arrange specific work.
"According to our research plan, the future education system will be divided into three stages: primary school, middle school and university. All school-age children will be able to meet our needs for talents after being nurtured, grown and screened in these three stages."
Zuo Menggeng and Xu Ruolin have never stopped discussing how to carry out education.
In this regard, Zuo Menggeng did not blindly copy the education system of later generations.
Times are different and the environment is different.
The most important thing is that the scientific system is not yet that perfect.
Even if an education system like that of later generations was established, there would not be so much knowledge to enrich it.
Therefore, it is an inevitable choice to simplify the education stage, speed up the cultivation of talents, and enable them to be fully integrated into practice and work as soon as possible.
As Xu Ruolin's secretary, Liu Rushi stood up and explained the specific method.
"After three-level division, primary school is a five-year system, middle school is a four-year system, and university is a four-year system. The entry age for children is tentatively set at six to seven years old. In this way, a student will graduate from university at the age of twenty. Around this time, you are in your prime of life.”
In this era, it is common for people to start a family and start a business at the age of fourteen or five, so they are all very precocious.
Moreover, the development of Shandong has also determined that it is impossible to wait until talents are 23 or 24 years old before they graduate from college and join the workforce.
Therefore, it is a reasonable plan to shorten the academic time and allow students to start working earlier.
Qi Biaojia's wife Shang Jinglan has now also left home and participated in education work.
This talented woman loved teaching and educating people. Qi Biaojia was away from home, so she had always been responsible for educating her children.
She asked: "Now the establishment of primary schools and middle schools has been fully rolled out. However, the university is still just a proposal, and I don't know how to plan it."
Zuo Mengeng looked at Liu Zongzhou.
"Nian Tai Gong, what is your intention?"
Liu Zongzhou thought carefully and said slowly: "University is the highest threshold of the education system. Whether a student can become a talent or not depends entirely on this, so we must not be careless. In my opinion, a university should be built, but it is better to have a lack of motherhood."
His opinion was recognized by Zuo Mengeng.
Zuo Mengeng has another argument.
"Although Shandong's population is becoming increasingly large, it is still concentrated in one corner. If institutions of higher learning are too concentrated, this will not be conducive to the future, and there will be hidden dangers of duplication of construction and extravagance and waste."
Shandong is just that big.
If there are too many top universities, it will be a disadvantage.
Zuo Mengeng’s idea is that currently only three universities are needed.
"One was built in Jinan and was named National Central University; one was built in Qingdao and was named National Qingdao University; and one was built in Linqing and was named National Medical University."
This is Zuo Mengeng’s current plan for university construction.
As Jinan will be the administrative capital in the future, it will inevitably have universities nearby. Not only is he good at management, he can also exert influence to produce the talents the regime needs.
As an emerging place, Qingdao faces the ocean and is a window for external exchanges.
When a university is established here, the talents who come out must have a broad mind, excellent vision and extraordinary skills.
As for the Medical University, it is to upgrade the medical school that Deng Yuhan currently chairs.
The importance of medicine is self-evident.
It can greatly improve human health and extend life span.
This is also a way to increase competitiveness.
When discussing the establishment of two academies, Jiang Cai was appointed as the president of the Academy of Social Sciences. But Zuo Menggeng, the current president of National Central University, insisted on his own opinion and handed it over to Liu Zongzhou.
This is a great master whose academics and character are unparalleled in the world.
If he serves as the president of National Central University, he will definitely be able to establish a good atmosphere for this school.
Only talents who come out of such an environment can be trustworthy.
As for the president of National Qingdao University, Zuo Menggeng thought over and over again and proposed a rather unexpected candidate.
That is Sun Yuanhua.
But after everyone thought about it, they had to admire his choice.
Like Liu Zongzhou, Sun Yuanhua was also a master with noble academic, technical and moral character.
The most rare thing is that Sun Yuanhua is compatible with both things and can make the atmosphere of National Qingdao University more open.
Through such appointments, everyone also discovered that the two universities actually have different focuses.
National Central University mainly focuses on social sciences.
National Qingdao University focuses on industrial science.
The National Medical University is a junior college and is only responsible for cultivating talents in the medical profession.
In fact, in addition to this, there are three institutions of higher learning in Shandong.
That is the New Army Military Academy, the New Army Naval Academy and the Naval Academy.
However, these three schools are affiliated with the military and are therefore not considered by the education system.
Even so, after this meeting, Shandong's education system was completely straightened out.
Next is the construction of schools at all levels.
It is expected that within five to ten years, new schools will completely replace traditional education and spread throughout Shandong.
