Abstract:
Great achievements have been made in higher medical education in Chongqing, China. Among the western provinces and cities, Chongqing has relatively high quantity and quality indicators of medical education institutions . Within the whole country , Chongqing has a medium level of the key indicators of medical education, and there is still a gap between Chongqing and the economically developed provinces such as Zhejiang and Guangdong. Among the four centrally administered municipalities, Beijing and Shanghai have rich medical education resources, and there is a large gap between Chongqing and Beijing/Shanghai in the level of medical education, the number of academicians, and the number of hospitals included in the top hundred hospitals in China . Recently , Chongqing University started to establish a medical school, and University of Chinese Academy of Sciences started to construct an affiliated hospital named Chongqing Hospital in cooperation with Chongqing Municipal Health Planning Commission, which provided valuable opportunities for the development of higher medical education in Chongqing. Chongqing should increase the investment in basic research and development of medical science and technology, seize the strategic opportunity of"Internet+medicine", and gather the talents in medical science and technology, so as to promote the integration and development of military-civilian medical education and improve the level of higher medical education.
