Discipline development

Obtaining the authorization of doctoral degree in the first-level discipline means that both disciplines under this first-level discipline have the right to grant doctoral degrees, which means that a student can study from undergraduate to doctoral degree as long as he chooses any major in this discipline. This can reflect the strength and level of a university or research institute in this discipline.

However, it depends on whether this discipline is leading the country, whether there are national key disciplines and the number of key disciplines in the two disciplines. The application for degree programs (master's degree programs) in colleges and universities in China is generally based on two disciplines. After the successful application for degree programs, most of them are located in two disciplines. Key disciplines basically belong to the category of two disciplines. Under the planned economy system, the status and role of two disciplines (equivalent to majors) are decisive.

Therefore, from the revision of the undergraduate professional catalogue to the revision of the postgraduate professional catalogue, the problem of too narrow and narrow professional settings is put in the first place, and efforts are made to continuously broaden the majors.
