The origin of 1 985:1At the Peking University100th anniversary celebration in May 1998, the state officially announced that it would build a world-class university. 1999, the state approved the 2 1 century action plan to revitalize education. Because the project plan was put forward in May 1998, it was called "985 Project". The project was planned to be divided into two batches. The first batch is relatively small, only two universities, Peking University and Tsinghua. There are 39 schools in the second batch, such as Chongqing University and National Defense University of Central South University.

2.2 1 1 Origin: 1995, China launched a university construction plan called 2 1 1, and the slogan put forward at that time was: Facing 2 1 century, focusing on construction 100. So we took the first three numbers and got the "2 1 1 project" scheme. Peking University, Tsinghua University, Beijing Jiaotong University, Northeastern University and other 1 12 universities have been selected for this project.

3.985 and 2 1 1: 985 universities have higher price difference than non-985 21/universities. 985 University is a world-class university, and 2 1 1 is a national key university. 985 institutions are all 2 1 1 institutions, and 2 1 1 is not necessarily 985. Most of the 985 universities are comprehensive universities with a long history, and the top 2 1 1 are basically professional leaders in a certain industry.
