Seminar | 学习制度激励，推动广以发展

张杰教授主要从事高能量密度物理等研究，在科研上建树卓著。他是中国科学院院士、德国国家科学院院士、发展中国家科学院院士、英国皇家工程院外籍院士、美国国家科学院外籍院士。与此同时，他在高校行政管理上还是一位高瞻远瞩、经验丰富的“大牛”。在担任上海交大校长的十年间，他带领交大走过一段快速发展的道路，极大提高了上海交大的实力和知名度。交大如今已跻身世界一流大学行列。

张杰教授将大学比喻为“创新发动机”，从美国知名大学在航天、互联网、大数据、AI等领域对美国创新经济发展的贡献引入制度激励的学理基础介绍。他指出，大学是一个高智商、多元化、长时序的复杂组织系统，其根本生命力在于创新。创新的本质在于激发个体的创新活力，要使中国大学真正成为中国经济社会发展的创新引擎和动力源泉，就要通过以人为本的制度激励，不断提高中国大学的治理水平，在大学中营造系统、全面、持续激发师生创新活力的环境和文化。

张杰教授以上海交通大学面向未来发展的战略规划为例，具体阐述了高校在人事制度系统改革过程中实施“以人为本”制度激励的实践探索。在随后的问答环节中，他还对广东以色列理工学院的未来发展提出建议。他认为，广以作为一所中外合作办学的研究型大学，与国内传统大学大有不同。“广以根植于以色列理工学院优良的传统和基础，在人才培养改革方面具有得天独厚的优势。”他建议广以把握好国家快速发展的优势，利用大学的创新能力为社会发展带来巨大影响，将自身的发展与广东省乃至国家的发展紧密结合。

研讨会提问环节问题不断

值此广以建校五周年之际，中国科学院院士、广东以色列理工学院校长龚新高教授为全体广以人以及关心学校发展的各界人士注入“一剂强心针”。他表示，广以是一所年轻的高校，学校的发展正处在不断摸索的阶段，但广以人从不缺乏迎接挑战的勇气和解决困难的能力。“未来，我们将进一步推进办学改革，用最大的力量把学校办好办强，以更加矫健的步伐迈向广以美好的明天！”

12月18日，广东以色列理工学院举行年会暨五周年服务奖颁奖典礼，一批员工受到表彰。

Prof. Zhang Jie is a prominent scientist for his pioneering contribution in high energy density physics. He was elected Academician of CAS, Member of Germany Academy of Sciences Leopoldina, Fellow of the Third World Academy of Sciences (TWAS), Foreign Member of Royal Academy of Engineering (FREng) and Foreign Associate of American National Academy of Sciences (NAS). He is also a professional in university governance. Under his leadership, SJTU has made remarkable progress on its way in ten years. Nowadays, SJTU has become a world-class university.

Prof. Zhang Jie compared universities to the “engine for innovation” and introduced the theoretical foundation of institutional incentives from renowned universities’ contributions to the development of the US innovation economy in fields such as aerospace, the internet, big data and AI. He noted that university is a complex organization embracing intelligence, diversity and the long term with innovation taking root at the core. The essence of innovation is to inspire the innovative vitality of individuals. Prof. Zhang indicated that modern university governance system should lie in the establishment of a people-oriented institutional incentive system and create a comprehensive, systemic and constant encouragement for faculty, students and staff in the university to stimulate innovation vitality.

Prof. Zhang took the example of SJTU’s future strategic plan to further interpret the implementation of “people-oriented” institutional incentives in the reform of the personnel system. In the Q&A session, he also provided suggestions for GTIIT’s future development. He said that as a Sino-foreign cooperative university, GTIIT is very different from traditional universities in China. “GTIIT is rooted in the excellent tradition and foundation of the Technion - Israel Institute of Technology, and has unique advantages in the reform of talent cultivation.” He suggested that GTIIT should take advantage of China’s booming situation to bring a great impact on social development using the innovation ability of the university and closely integrate its own development with the provincial and even national development.

Q&A session of the Seminar

On the occasion of GTIIT’s fifth anniversary, Prof. Gong Xingao, Academician of CAS and Chancellor of GTIIT brought “a shot in the arm” for all GTers and friends from different social sectors. He said while GTIIT is a young institute learning by trial and error, GTers could rise to challenges and address the issues. “We will boost educational reform and endeavor to build a better future for GTIIT!”

On December 18, a group of staff were honored with the 5-year Service Award at GTIIT’s annual meeting and fifth anniversary ceremony.
