Click the following green label to listen to the introduction of astronomy and the trend analysis of the admission score line of the science experimental class where the astronomy major of Nanjing University is located:
Astronomy is the science of studying celestial bodies and the universe, It is one of the core disciplines and cutting-edge disciplines of natural science. It uses various modern cutting-edge technologies as detection means to collect and process all band electromagnetic radiation and other information from the universe, constantly deepen and change human's understanding of the universe, constantly innovate human's knowledge system and world outlook, and drive human to continuously innovate cutting-edge technologies to explore the natural world. Nowadays, the most challenging scientific problems in the research of astronomy and astrophysics, such as dark matter, dark energy, the origin and evolution of all levels of the universe, attract more and more excellent talents to participate in the research of astronomy. Astronomy and astrophysics research is also an important strategic support direction for the world's powerful scientific and technological country, which has invested a lot of scientific and technological resources.
On December 28, 2017, the fourth round of discipline evaluation, first level discipline astronomy, announced by the center for degree and graduate development of the Ministry of education, was all 985 famous universities. The evaluation results are as follows:
Nanjing University: Astronomy
The students are required to have a solid mathematical foundation, master the basic knowledge of astronomy, and become the backup talents with innovative spirit and practical ability and the applied talents in aerospace and other fields.
Main courses: university mathematics, University Physics, general astronomy, data processing, fluid mechanics, Fundamentals of celestial mechanics, spherical astronomy, measured astrophysics, theoretical astrophysics, Galaxy physics, etc.
Employment situation
Every year, more than two-thirds of undergraduate students in the Department of astronomy can get further study opportunities at home and abroad. Graduates who step into the society are also welcomed by employers. The employment prospects have been promising. The main destinations of graduates are scientific research, national defense, colleges and institutions. In recent years, the employment rate is more than 90%.
Nanjing University's astronomy is enrolled uniformly in many disciplines included in the science experimental class, and the scores are naturally higher. From 2015 to 2018, the admission scores of science majors are 391, 401, 392 and 394 respectively, and the line differences are 66, 67, 69 and 61, ranking 1069, 886, 1203 and 1374 respectively in the whole province, 5 and 6 points on the school filing line, 399 points on the school filing line in 2019, and 405 points if 6 points are added, ranking 1052 in the whole province. In 2019, about 60 points on the new line will be admitted to the science experimental class of South University, which has a great grasp. The professional score admission data in 2019 can be released in June 2020 by the University of Jiangsu Province It is found in 2017-2019 compilation of enrollment and admission materials, so it can be referred to in 2020, and about 1000 times can be considered to fill in the science experimental class of Nanjing University.
University of Chinese Academy of Sciences: Astronomy
[teaching strength] relying on the College of astronomy and space science mainly undertaken by the National Astronomical Observatory of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, this major provides students with high-quality astronomy education and trains leading talents in the field of astronomy. It has large area multi-target optical fiber spectrum astronomical telescope (LAMOST), 500m aperture spherical radio telescope (fast) and other national large scientific devices. The school of astronomy and space science of the University of science and technology of China has a large number of famous teachers, including 12 academicians of the two academies, 19 national outstanding young scholars, 3 candidates for the thousand talents program, and 6 candidates for the thousand talents program of youth. It can be called the master's garden of astronomy in China. Meanwhile, it also has a large number of young and middle-aged outstanding scientists with profound knowledge, profound academic attainments and playing a backbone in scientific research and teaching.
[training requirements] have a wide and solid foundation of mathematics and physics and rich knowledge of astronomy, and be strictly trained in computer, foreign language and other professional skills, master the relevant knowledge of new astronomy technology and its application, acquire the relevant skills of hands-on practice such as astronomy observation, and have the ability to engage in astronomy research.
[curriculum] basic courses include: basic astronomy, measured astrophysics, introduction to stellar physics, introduction to Galaxy cosmology, reading and writing of scientific and technological literature, theoretical mechanics, mathematical physics methods, thermodynamics and statistical physics, electrodynamics.
Major elective courses include: introduction to planetary science, introduction to solar physics, astrometry and fundamentals of celestial mechanics, calculation methods and astrostatistics, magnitude estimation and semi quantitative analysis. It is suggested that students majoring in astronomy should take quantum mechanics as an elective course of any major.
Public elective courses include: discovery of the universe, hands-on astronomy. It is recommended that students majoring in astronomy should study astronomy, not included in the credits of professional elective courses.
Postgraduate basic courses in multi band astronomical observation and data processing, history of astronomy, introduction to astronomy technology, introduction to space astronomy, radiation mechanism in astrophysics, etc. are available.
Beijing Normal University: Astronomy
Training objectives: have good mathematical foundation and astronomy theory, master astronomy observation and processing technology, have strong computer application ability, and be able to engage in research, teaching and scientific and Technological Development in astronomy and related fields.
The main courses are 4 Classes: (1) Physics: General Physics (mechanics, thermology, electromagnetics, optics and general physics experiments), theoretical physics (theoretical mechanics, electrodynamics, quantum mechanics, thermodynamics and Statistical Physics); (2) Mathematics: University Mathematics and mathematical physics methods; (3) Astronomy: introduction to astronomy, introduction to astronomy, astronomical experiments, measured astrophysics, radio astronomy Science, theoretical astrophysics, stellar structure and evolution, solar physics, Galaxy astronomy, cosmology, spherical astronomy and celestial mechanics, etc.; (4) calculation: algorithm language, calculation method, astronomical data processing, astronomical software operation and multimedia, etc. During the period of study, students will go to the Observatory for observation practice and scientific research ability training in combination with professional direction, and complete their graduation thesis.
Graduation destination: every year, 25% of the graduates are admitted to graduate school or study abroad. The rest work in scientific research institutions, national defense departments, astronomical science popularization and secondary schools. In addition, astronomy of Beijing Normal University has also provided many excellent talents for IT industry, science and technology publishing industry, new technology industry and scientific research management departments.
