Academy of science has its own graduate school and professor ranks
- alephnerd 3y agoUSTC and UCAS are treated as separate entities in the Nature Index
- seanmcdirmid 3y agoUCAS ranks just behind Qinghua and PKU, but has 54k post graduates compared to around 18-28K in each of the former. So it is really a lot farther behind those two top institutions than it appears on paper, not as impressive when you realize how much staff they have.
- alephnerd 3y agoUCAS and USTC are holdovers from the Communist era, when a nation's Academy of Sciences would also include graduate education (eg. In the former Soviet Union). In the present day, the CAS includes national labs (to use a CN to US comparison), USTC, and UCAS. Being affiliated to CAS doesn't necessarily mean affiliation to UCAS or USTC, hence why you will see researchers from Tsinghua or SJTU affiliated with CAS.
