Speech of President
 

¡¡¡¡ With the advent of the 21st century and the development of globalization in economy, the contest in human society for comprehensive national strength will become more fierce, centering on scrambling for talented personnel. It is believed that the level of nationals' quality, width of their knowledge, especially their innovative and creative power will decide a state's or a nation's status in this international contest. The rise and fall of a state is related to the cause of education, and the university is the spring of wisdom in social development. We are, therefore, oppressed by increasing competition urge to quicken the tempo of reform. We must judge the time and size up the situation we face to take precautionary measures and carry out our reform in depth so as to keep up with the time.

¡¡¡¡ Facing the social development of the 21st century and the demand for progress as required by the time, Liaoning University has worked out its guiding thinking for its construction and development in the coming five to ten years. It is to emancipate our mind, focus on the reform, enhance quality, accelerate the University's growth, attach importance to coordination and distinguishits own features. We are based on Liaoning Province but render service to the whole country. The general goal of building up Liaoning University is: to hold high the great banner of Deng Xiaoping's theory, implement the important thinking of "The Three Representatives", adhere to the Socialist orientation in running the University, take accelerating development as our main theme, make the building up of disciplines a dominant attention, use the intensification of reform as motive power and strengthen management as our means to achieve all this. We will build Liaoning University into a teaching-research type university at a fairly high level and with fairly big influence in the course of ten years' construction and development.
