On February 25, Yuxin Zhao, Standing Committee Member of the University Party Committee and Vice President, conducted a visit to the School of Mathematical Sciences to review its progress and offer insights. During the visit, he provided valuable guidance to support the school’s high-quality development, after hearing a comprehensive report on its key initiatives.
The school outlined its priorities for 2025, presenting detailed plans in areas such as strengthening academic programs, enhancing student training, advancing research efforts, developing its teaching staff, and expanding international collaboration.
Vice President Zhao commended the school’s achievements and proposed five key recommendations:
Promote interdisciplinary integration and refine program offerings, with a pilot dual-degree program in “Mathematics + Artificial Intelligence” to serve as a model, while exploring emerging fields like “Marine Mathematics” and “Intelligent Computing.”
Improve foundational mathematics education through tailored instruction, support the development of distinguished educators and high-quality textbooks, enhance the teaching skills of younger faculty, and utilize smart education platforms to monitor and elevate classroom quality.
Accelerate the creation of a knowledge map for mathematics courses, develop AI-supported teaching environments, encourage full faculty participation in selecting university-level digital courses, and strive to establish nationally recognized top-tier courses and teaching outcomes.
Strengthen ties with leading provincial high schools to boost undergraduate recruitment, ensure mentors take a leading role in graduate admissions, attract high-caliber students from other institutions via academic exchanges, and prioritize increasing enrollment in integrated bachelor’s-to-master’s-to-doctoral programs.
The Vice President emphasized that the school's Party Committee must fully implement responsibilities for rigorous Party governance, while addressing requirements for Party-building, ideological work, and campus security.
