On the afternoon of May 9th, the school-opening ceremony for 2007 in-service postgraduates   was held in the multifunctional hall of the International Exchange Center. An Liansuo (vice president of NCEPU), Yin Chengqun (assistant to president), Zhao Dongmei (administrative vice dean of the Graduate School), Zhao Huiru (vice dean of the Graduate School) and other leaders attended the ceremony on which vice-president An delivered an important speech.

    At first, vice-president An extended his congratulation to the new-enrolled 2007 in-service postgraduates . He said that NCEPU had matriculated all together 1021 in-service postgraduates   from 21 provinces and autonomous regions. The enrollment of such a large amount of in-service postgraduates just before the fifth anniversary of NCEPU implied the great demand of the power industry for talents and marked the improvement of popularity of our university.

    Then vice-president An also raised the following requirements on the ceremony.

    Firstly, appeal for lifelong learning and correct orientation, and apply what we learn to practice. The word “research” meant a lot for postgraduates. Students should explore reality, think in an innovative way, and acquire theories and methodologies to cultivate the ability to find, summarize and solve problems.

    Secondly, grasp opportunities and face challenges to be the fresh activists for the enterprise independent innovation. The enterprise independent innovation required a great number of high-level and innovative talents, so all the students should keep a strong interest for science, catch the opportunity to show talents, and be the pioneers who would explore reality and make innovation when an innovative country was being built.

    Thirdly, be willing to stand loneliness, get rid of flippancy, and arrange study and work in an appropriate way. Those in-service postgraduates would pursue their study without leaving their posts, so he hoped that the students stood loneliness, made proper schedule for both work and study, and made full use of spare time to study hard.

    Fourth, observe the law and disciplines and be honest so as to cultivate sound personality with virtue, which is also the ultimate object of education. He required the students to know honors and disgraces, distinguish truth from falsehood, and pursue self-perfection to shoulder the responsibility of building a socialism country.

    Finally, he claimed that the fifth anniversary of NCEPU would come in November. With the development for half a century, our university had become a key university with sound teaching facilities, good scientific and research conditions, and reasonable composition of subjects. He expected students to hold opportunities to make academic achievements and make efforts to build NCEPU into a multi-disciplinary, research-oriented, international key university of the first-grade at home and of some influence abroad.

    After the ceremony, the newly-enrolled students attended their first academic lecture“Introduction to the draft of ‘Energy Law’ in China” delivered by Zhou Feng’ao, doctor supervisor from Human & Social Science School.

    It is known that the 1021 in-service postgraduates will finish their study by attending classes and self-studying. Among them there are 915 engineering masters, 64 MBA, 42 in-service college teachers, 508 of whom will study on Beijing campus and 513 of whom will take courses on Baoding campus.
