In 2023, there were a total of 117 enrollment colleges for sports training majors, with a considerable increase this time. The approval of Peking University to establish a physical education major has also attracted considerable attention. After being approved by Tsinghua University, applications from universities such as Peking University and Beijing Institute of Technology to establish a physical education major have also been approved. After the announcement of the "Approval Results", several physical education teachers and coaches familiar to the reporter shared the relevant news on their social media. Zhang Zhaohua, the head coach of the volleyball team at Heilongjiang Tieli No.1 Middle School, also commented, "Significant benefits!" Industry interviewees said that the changes mentioned above are related to the "Guiding Opinions on Further Improving and Standardizing the Examination and Enrollment Work of High level Sports Teams in Universities" (hereinafter referred to as the "Guiding Opinions") issued by the Ministry of Education in September 2021. Qian Junwei, a professor at Peking University and director of the Sports Teaching and Research Department, said that Peking University's application to establish a bachelor's degree in sports education is a proactive response to the national requirements for the transformation of high-level sports team construction. Although the current enrollment policy poses significant challenges to the scale and quality of high-level sports team construction, it does not affect our utilization of Peking University's profound sports and interdisciplinary educational resources. We will aim to build a first-class undergraduate program in the country, while also making plans for interdisciplinary and cross disciplinary training of composite talents. We believe that in the near future, Peking University will be able to cultivate more outstanding sports educators and make due contributions to a strong sports, education, and healthy China. Liu Bo, Director of the Sports Department of Tsinghua University, stated that in response to the new enrollment policy for high-level athletes, some universities have applied for sports majors, especially key universities such as Tsinghua, Peking University, and Beijing Institute of Technology that adhere to independent training models
