People’s Daily, the official newspaper of the Central Committee of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), recently reported that the Political Work Department of the CCP’s Central Military Commission has launched a recruitment initiative to “directly enlist outstanding university graduates” as military (and police) officers. The selection of graduates primarily targets those who studied science and engineering disciplines at “first-class” universities. For specialties urgently needed in military construction, a limited number of graduates from “non-first-class” universities and disciplines “may also be selected, provided they were admitted in the first batch of students during the undergraduate admissions process.” The goal for the planned initiative is to recruit over 800 military (police) officers in the latter half of this year.
