A few days ago, the Ministry of Education issued a new version of "Regulations on the Management of Students in Colleges and Universities", which is an important basis and basic system for the management of students in China, including setting up credits for innovation and entrepreneurship, allowing students to take courses across schools, and strictly checking the qualifications of freshmen. This new regulation not only gives many new "benefits" to college students, but also delineates "forbidden areas".
Details:
1. Innovation and entrepreneurship, thesis patents and online courses can all be counted as credits
For college students, getting credits and graduating smoothly is one of their most concerned topics. This new regulation on student management in colleges and universities has added a number of channels for students to get credits.
For example, "Students' experiences and achievements related to professional study and academic requirements, such as participating in activities such as innovation and entrepreneurship, social practice, publishing papers and obtaining patent authorization, can be converted into credits and included in academic achievements. The specific measures are stipulated by the school. " "Schools should encourage, support and guide students to participate in social practice, innovation and entrepreneurship activities, and can establish innovation and entrepreneurship files and set up innovation and entrepreneurship credits."
2. Support for college students' entrepreneurship: The achievements of college students' entrepreneurial experience can be included in their academic performance
The new regulations stipulate that freshmen can apply for retaining their admission qualifications to carry out innovative and entrepreneurial practices, and they can also apply for suspension from school to start their own businesses after entering school. As mentioned above, students' experiences and achievements related to professional learning and academic requirements, such as participating in innovation and entrepreneurship activities, publishing papers and obtaining patent authorization, can be converted into credits and included in academic achievements.
3. The study system is more flexible: students are allowed to study in different schools by relaxing their study years.
The new regulations make it clear that if schools need to adjust their majors according to the development and changes of social demand for talents, they should allow students to transfer to other related majors, formulate specific measures for students to change their majors, establish fair and just conditions and procedures, and improve the publicity system.
4. Complaints against punishment: Schools set up student complaint handling committees
The new regulations make it clear that schools should set up student complaint handling committees to accept students' complaints against handling or punishment decisions. In addition to the relevant school leaders, functional department leaders, teachers' representatives and students' representatives, the new regulations increase the heads of relevant institutions responsible for legal affairs as members of the student complaint handling Committee. Conditional schools can also hire outside experts in law and education.
In addition, the new regulations also add the content that students' punishment should be set for a period of 6 to 12 months, and it is stipulated that "in addition to the punishment of expulsion from school, students' punishment should generally be set for a period of 6 to 12 months, and it should be lifted according to the procedures stipulated by the school. After the punishment is lifted, the students will be commended, rewarded and other rights and interests, and will no longer be affected by the original punishment.
