The Graduate School of Chinese Academy of Social Sciences (GSCASS,simplified Chinese: 中国社会科学院研究生院; traditional Chinese: 中國社會科學院研究生院; pinyin: Zhōngguó Shèhuì Kēxuéyuàn Yánjiūshēngyuàn) is a public educational graduate school located in Beijing as one of the first two graduate schools (with Graduate University of the Chinese Academy of Sciences) of the People’s Republic of China.

History

Founded in 1978, Graduate School of Chinese Academy of Social Sciences was approved by Central Government top leaders in the form of Executive Order. Different from other graduate schools run by university or college, Graduate School of Chinese Academy of Social Sciences functions directly under the highest academic authority of Chinese social sciences research- the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences (CASS) -one of the largest state-run research organizations serving as the most important think tank set up to provide policy-making suggestions in Social, National and International domains. Originally, the purpose of GSCASS was to construct a Prospect Research Faculty Incubator- as its founding spirit may suggest- instrumental in providing qualified first-class researching backups to prosper the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences. After 30 years’ development however, the Graduate School has now established its prestigious achievement in elite education both for official and unofficial needs. High percentage of GSCASS graduates entered the Legislative, Executive and Judicial Branches of Chinese Government and various researching organizations, playing leading roles in Academic Research, Policy Making, as well as Social Movement. The establishment of GSCASS made huge impact to Chinese Humanity and Social Science education at the dawn of the Reform and Opening Up (also known as the Economic reform in the People's Republic of China).

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, 6 Departments, 38 Schools and over 900 faculty members. Typically, a faculty member has at most one student to advise in a period of 3 years. This one-to-one system between teacher and student encourages graduate students to involve in important research programs- usually waged by public. Students are free to embrace more significant experience combining theoretical and practical, as well as deeper emotional communication under such arrangement.

In aspect of International Communication, the GSCASS has established strong academic exchanging programs with prestigious graduate schools all over the world. Oversea programs for non-Chinese speaking students began to run 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 school run by university, the scale of GSCASS graduates has always been very small. Up to June 2008, the Academic Degree Evaluation Committee of GSCASS has totally conferred 2574 doctoral degrees, 4198 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 come 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 held 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 so as to encourage top students to compete extra financial aid by outstanding performance in academic research.

Campus Life

The campus being in use was located in Wangjing area, northeast of the Beijing city, adjacent to Central Academy of Fine Arts, Beijing Youth Politics College and China Medical University. Small in scale though, it was well integrated and fully equipped, exuding a kind of 1980s’ spirit and confidence which is rare seen today. [Pictures and Brief Introduction]
