Abstract:

The core of “Double First-Class” initiative is discipline construction. Through reviewing the development and the achievements of the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Shanghai Ninth People's Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, and two guiding thoughts, i.e., “high ambition” and “reform and opening up”, the following four experiences are summarized: talent cultivation and echelon construction, talent diversion to increase spillover effect, advocating interdisciplinarity and transdisciplinarity, and introducing system reform and discipline innovation. Furthermore, four suggestions for the future are proposed: the oral and maxillofacial surgery of “Chinese style” should be changed to “Chinese characteristics”; innovation should be taken as the forerunner and scientific research as the soul; with the integration of natural science and humanities as the breakthrough point and the guidance of integration, the interdisciplinary talents should be trained; humanistic education in medicine should be further enhanced.

Key words: “Double First-Class” initiative, discipline construction, oral and maxillofacial surgery
