In order to further strengthen the construction of teachers' team in western colleges and universities, promote the counterpart work of colleges and universities in developed regions to support the work of colleges and universities in western regions, and speed up the completion of the short board of higher education in western regions, in February this year, the Ministry of Education issued the implementation plan for the plan of supporting the west by University silver age teachers, and selected a group of colleges and Universities under the age of 70, with the title of deputy senior and above, and the first-line teaching and scientific research experience among the colleges and universities directly under the Ministry of education Experienced retirees go to western universities to support teaching and research.
After the plan was issued, Nanjing University actively implemented it, promptly issued the notice on the implementation of the Ministry of education's "silver age teachers supporting the western plan", and organized the registration of retired teachers. In order to support the teaching and scientific research work of counterpart universities, after the research of the University, on the basis of counterpart support to the West Yunnan University of Applied Technology designated by the Ministry of education, the university expanded the support of silver age teachers to Yili Normal University and Kunming University, which have long supported and supported the universities.
The western region is the difficulty and key point of building a well-off society in an all-round way and winning the battle to get rid of poverty. It is also an important leeway for China's development and a great potential to improve the national average level of development. As a beneficial supplement to talent recruitment and training programs such as the "light of the west" visiting scholar project, the state training demonstration project for new teachers in central and Western Colleges and universities, and the "thousand presidents of central and western universities overseas training program", the selection of a number of outstanding retired teachers in colleges and universities to support teaching and research is conducive to improving the overall level of teachers in western colleges and universities. In a sense, it will also help to alleviate the real contradiction that has been plaguing the teachers in the western region for a long time. In terms of the number of talents and the structure of talents, it will speed up to make up for the shortcomings and strengthen the weaknesses.
The plan is a new way to solve the unbalanced development of education with the flow of resources. We hope that the qualified retired teachers can actively participate in it, continue to play their political, experience and professional advantages, help the western universities to improve their abilities of moral cultivation, team building and scientific research innovation, and promote the "two first-class" universities in the western region Construction, to enhance the comprehensive level of national higher education, to strengthen the construction of teachers in western colleges and universities to make contributions.
