Which should I choose, 2 1 1 985 in remote areas or ordinary No.1 in developed areas?

985, 2 1 1 colleges and universities are a group of top domestic colleges and universities supported by the state, and these schools have greater advantages than other schools in terms of overall strength and professional advantages. The annual funds allocated by the state and the Ministry of Education will also be appropriately inclined to these schools, so the teachers and infrastructure conditions of these schools are much better than those of other ordinary colleges and universities.

But not all 985,211universities are better than other universities, such as those in remote areas. Even with the key support of the Ministry of Education, the development of 985, 2 1 1 universities in remote areas is still relatively slow, and the development of many disciplines is far from that of key universities in developed areas.

In Xiaolong's view, there is no standard answer to such a choice. The key is to treat the situation in a specific way:

First of all, we should compare the dominant majors in colleges and universities. Many times, we choose a university, not because it is 985 or 2 1 1, but because the major we want to study is the dominant major of this university, and whether this major can have considerable influence in the country. Take xidian university, Shaanxi as an example. It is an institution of higher learning with a strong specialty in electronic information and technology. Although it is only a 2 1 1 university without the title of 985, its electronic major has a higher influence than many other universities in the country, second only to several universities with comprehensive rankings such as Beihang University. Therefore, if the 985, 2 1 1 colleges in this remote area do not have the strong major you want to go to, it is better to go to an ordinary college in a developed area with strong major.

Secondly, it depends on the gap in infrastructure conditions. If 985, 2 1 1 universities in remote areas and an ordinary university in developed areas all have your favorite majors, and the reputation is similar, then it is necessary to compare the infrastructure conditions of the two universities. For example, 985, 2 1 1 colleges and universities in remote areas will invest money in other advantageous majors or other projects, but they don't pay enough attention to the major you want to go to, resulting in the complete backwardness of experimental equipment, instruments, venues and other conditions of this major, which will affect their own development. Then don't consider going to remote areas. In contrast, even if it is not a 985,211university, it is still in a developed area. If the school pays more attention to it, it is necessary to take this major. After all, regional development will benefit local colleges and universities, which is the same as "a rising tide lifts all boats".

Finally, we should distinguish between 985 and 2 1 1. Even in remote areas, if this university is both 985 and 2 1 1, then it is necessary to go. There are only dozens of such colleges and universities in China, which are definitely better than ordinary colleges and universities in developed areas. Because the state's support for 985+2 1 1 colleges and universities has exceeded the promotion of ordinary colleges and universities in developed areas. On the contrary, if this college is only an ordinary 2 1 1 college, it is certainly not as good as the ordinary colleges in developed areas.
