Introduction

     The School of Economics of Jilin University traces its history back to the economics department established by the School of Social Science of Harbin University, which was the predecessor of Jilin University, in 1946 (October, 1946), the department of economics at the Northeastern School of Administration (August, 1949) and the department of economics at Northeastern People's University (March, 1951). In November of 1985, the School of Economics and Management of Jilin University was established with the approval of the former Education Committee of the PRC. In May of 2001, the new Jilin University went through an adjustment of schools and departments, in which the School of Economics was established by integrating the economics departments of other universities on the basis of the School of Economics and Management of the former Jilin University. After a long period of construction and development, the Jilin University School of Economics has achieved striking successes in areas such as discipline and subject construction, faculty development, talents cultivation, and scientific research.

     The School of Economics now offers four undergraduate programs in economics, international economy and trade, public finance (including taxation) and finance (including insurance); we offer 14 academic master’s degree programs in political economy, world economy, western economics, economic history, history of economic thought, national economics, industrial economics, finance, international trade, public finance, accounting, management, institutional economics and law and economics; we offer five professional master’s degree programs in: taxation, finance, international business, project management, and industrial engineering; we offer eight doctoral degree programs in political economy, world economy, western economics, institutional economics, law and economics, history of economic thought, finance, and industrial economics. We have also established a center for postdoctoral studies of theoretical economics. In 1994 and 2002, the political economy program and the world economy program were both rated as Key Programs of Regular Higher Education of Jilin Province. In 1998, the Economics School set up a “National Cultivation Base of Economics Talents” with the approval of the Ministry of Education. In 2000, the theoretical economics program was authorized to confer doctoral degrees as a first-level discipline with the approval of the Academic Degree Commission of the State Council. In the same year, the “China Center for Public Sector Economy Research” became a national key research base for humanities and social sciences approved by the Ministry of Education.
