History

Founded in 1978, the Graduate School of Chinese Academy of Social Sciences was approved by the top leaders of the People's Republic of China in the form of an Executive Order. Different from other graduate schools run by university or college, the Graduate School of Chinese Academy of Social Sciences functions under the authority of China's main organ of research in the social sciences — the

(CASS) — one of the largest state-run research organizations that provide policy-making suggestions in social, national and international domains. Originally, the purpose of GSCASS was to construct a Prospect Research Faculty Incubator, in order to provide qualified first-class research candidates to aid the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences. Over time, the Graduate School has emerged as a general institution for higher learning. A high percentage of GSCASS graduates enter the Legislative, Executive and Judicial branches of Chinese government and research organizations. As such, it plays a leading role in academic research, policy-making, and social movement. The establishment of GSCASS made a huge impact on Chinese education and training in the humanities and social sciences, at the dawn of the Reform and Opening Up (also known as the

Academic organizations

GSCASS was born to be prestigious because of the outstanding academic resources the CASS has selected and collected from nationwide. It has so far grown up with the widest coverage in research and education spanning humanity and social science areas and has defined its leading momentum among all graduate schools in China. By now, the GSCASS was authorized to confer Doctoral and Master research degree in 11 disciplines, 167 sub-disciplines of humanity and social science. Original and independent research is a hallmark of GSCASS. GSCASS is composed of Faculty Committee, Academic Council, Academic Degree Evaluation Committee, six Departments, 38 Schools and over 900 faculty members. Typically, a faculty member has at most one student to advise in three years. This one-to-one system between teacher and student encourages graduate students to be involved in important research programs — usually waged by public. Students are free to embrace more significant experiences combining the theoretical and practical, as well as deeper emotional communication under such an arrangement. In international communication, the GSCASS has established strong academic exchange programs with prestigious graduate schools around the world. Overseas programs for non-Chinese speaking students began running in 1985. The number of degree students from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan kept surging from its first opening in 2000. Compared with other famous graduate schools run by universities, the scale of GSCASS graduates has been very small. Up to June 2008, the Academic Degree Evaluation Committee of GSCASS had conferred 2,574 doctoral degrees, 4,198 master's degrees and 339 professional master's degrees. In recent years, The GSCASS enrolls about 260 Doctoral candidates and 182 Master candidates annually. Students from the mainland of China qualified for application are required to obtain outstanding scores in National Master Entrance Examination or Doctoral Entrance Examination the school holds annually. So far, all GSCASS Master's degree candidates are fully financial aided. Ph.D. candidates, due to the latest policy, however, were covered by fund support in a fixed percentage to encourage top students to compete extra financial aid by outstanding performance in academic research.
