拔尖创新人才培养主要依靠研究生教育?—与叶赋桂、罗燕同志商榷

The Cultivation of Top-Notch Innovative Talents Depends Mainly on Postgraduate Education? Discussing with YE Fu-gui and LUO Yan

拔尖创新人才的成长是一个系统的过程，并非某一环节突击培养就可达成。美国是培养拔尖创新人才最多的国家，但是它的研究型大学高度注重本科教育;我国有海外学位的学术精英大都接受的是中国的本科教育，以及在世界顶尖大学的研究生院到处可见中国学生，并不能充分表明中国的本科教育水平“并不低”。本科教育是研究生教育的重要基袖，没有高水平的本科教育，绝不可能有高水平的研究生教育。如果一定要比较本科教育与研究生教育何者在拔尖创新人才培养中更为关键，那只能是本科教育。

The growth of top -notch innovative talents is a long and systematic process and can not be accomplished at one stroke. The United States cultivates the largest number of top-notch innovative talents in the world， while research universities there place great emphasis on undergraduate education. The fact that most Chinese academic elites with overseas degree were trained by Chinese undergraduate education， and Chinese students pursue their study in top graduate schools all over the world， doesnl seem to be a solid proof that China's undergraduate education is not poorly developed. Undergraduate education lays foundation for postgraduate education. If we had to make a comparison， I would say that undergraduate education plays a much more crucial role in the cultivation of top-notch innovative talents than postgraduate education without any hesitation.
