Five years of "breaking the five only": where is the way to improve the "imperial examination system" in the field of science and technology? YEF2024

In November 2018, the General Office of the Ministry of Education promulgated the Notice on Carrying out the Special Action to Clean Up the "Only Papers, Only Hats, Only Professional Titles, Only Academic Qualifications, and Only Awards", marking the official launch of the reform of "breaking the five only" in mainland universities. Since then, a series of documents aimed at promoting the "breaking of the five onlys" have been published one after another. In 2024, Huai Jinpeng, CCF Fellow, Academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Secretary of the Party Leadership Group and Minister of the Ministry of Education, pointed out in a public document that he will be committed to promoting the profound and systematic reform of education, further deepening the reform of the evaluation system of science and technology and talents in colleges and universities, and establishing a recognition mechanism for landmark achievements.

In the course of five years of development, the reform of "breaking the five onlys" has achieved remarkable results in the field of higher education in mainland China, and departments and universities at all levels have issued a series of policies to promote the transformation of the evaluation system from a single "five only" standard to a diversified evaluation index and classification evaluation system. However, there are also many problems in the reform process, such as formalism and poor implementation of evaluation indicators. The idea of the construction of a new evaluation system is still not perfect; The content of the evaluation is overly diversified and lacks a people-oriented orientation. In particular, the pursuit of "hats" has shown an increasingly fierce trend recently, and the issue of academic style and style in the field of scientific research has also attracted increasing attention.

This forum will focus on discussing and summarizing various policies in the past five years of the "Breaking the Five Onlys" activity, and discussing the purpose of the "Breaking the Five Onlys" and whether the purpose has been achieved. Has the current phenomenon of "hats flying all over the sky" formed a new "imperial examination system" in the field of scientific research? What kind of mechanisms do we need to produce good scientific results? Through the above discussion, we hope to make a summary of the five-year action of "breaking the five onlys" and provide guidance for the next step.

Title: Breaking the "Five Onlys" and Effectively Establishing the Evaluation System for Representative Works: Taking the Collapse of the Credibility of the International University Ranking System as an Opportunity

Summary:

In the domestic academic community, the top international journal papers are super hard currency, and the long-term "five onlys" have shaped China's scientific research system into a scientific research system centered on the pursuit of publishing international papers, which seriously deviates from the national goal of pursuing excellence and pursuing scientific and technological self-reliance and self-reliance. In the 2023 World University Nature Index rankings, which is based on the number of papers in top international journals, 7 Chinese universities are ranked in the top 10 in the world, which not only collapses the credibility of the ranking system, but also proves that the top international journal papers are not equal to the top international achievements. Carry out a thorough investigation of original achievements, so as to start the transformation from the international top journal papers to the pursuit of original innovation and scientific and technological self-reliance and self-improvement of the scientific research system.

Title: Breaking the mindset of the growth path of young researchers

Summary:

The growth path of many young scientific researchers is bound by the mindset, and they fall into such a career development stereotype: publish more papers→ strive for the four young → strive for the key → of the fund strive for provincial and ministerial awards→ publish more papers→ strive for outstanding young Yangtze River → strive for the chief → of national key projects, and strive for national awards...... Under this mindset, scientific research seems to be left with only "one way to Huashan", which has caused all kinds of anxiety among scientific researchers, and even led to unhealthy competition in various reviews. To break out of the mindset is to emancipate the mind. First of all, we must realize that the growth path of scientific researchers is not "a road from ancient Huashan", but "all roads lead to Rome". The report will explore the diversified growth paths of young researchers.
