俄亥俄州立大学的历史

1870年俄亥俄农业和机械学院成立，1873年开始接受学生。这所学校一开始位于哥伦布市外，其主要专业是农业和机械。俄亥俄州后来决定扩大教育范围，从1878年开始这个大学改名位俄亥俄州立大学。

俄亥俄州立大学的校友中包括两名诺贝尔奖获得者，Paul Flory(1974年诺贝尔化学奖得主)和William A. Fowler(1983年诺贝尔物理学奖得主)。

到1998年为止俄亥俄州立大学运行硕耳射电望远镜，世界上最大和使用最长的用于收缩外星智慧的射电望远镜。

The Ohio State University was founded in 1870 as a land-grant university in aCCOrdance with the Morrill Act of 1862 under the name of the Ohio Agricultural and MEChaNICal College. The school was originally situated within a farming community located on the northern edge of ColuMBus. While some interests in the state had hoPEd that the new university would focus on matriculating students of various agricultural and MEChanical disciplines, Governor Rutherford B. Hayes foresaw a more classic, comPRehensive university, and manipulated both the university's location and its initial board of trustees towards that end. Later that year, the university welcomed its first class of 24 students. In 1878, and in light of its expanded focus, the college pERManently changed its name to the now-familiar "The Ohio State University" (with the article "The" as part of its offICIal name).[1][2]

Ohio State began accepting graduate students in the 1880s, and, in 1891, the school saw the founding of its law school, Moritz College of Law. It would later acquire colleges of mEDIcine, dentistry, commerce and journalISM in subsequent years.

Although develOPMent had been hindered in the 1870s by hostility from the state's agricultural interests and competition for resources from Miami University and Ohio University, both issues were eventually resolved. In 1906, Ohio State's status as the state's flagship campus was written into law by the Ohio legislature through the Eagleson BIll. In 1916, Ohio State was elected into membership in the AssoCIAtion of American Universities.

俄亥俄州立大学的教学科研

Ohio State’s faculty currently includes a Nobel Prize-winning physicist, twenty-one members of the National Academy of Sciences or National Academy of Engineering, four members of the Institute of Medicine,[3]and 159 elected fellows of the American Association for the AdvanCEMent of Science. In 2008, seventeen Ohio State faculty were elected as AAAS Fellows. EACh year since 2002, Ohio State has either led or been second amongst all American universities in the number of their faculty elected as fellows to the AAAS..[4][1]

In a recent study by Harvard University's Graduate School of Education, Ohio State was one of five universities rated as "exemplary" workplaces for junior faculty. In the study, thirty-one universities and eleven liberal arts colleges were EVAluated on tenure clarity and fairness, nature of work including workloads, quality of students, and teACHing environment, compensation, work and family balance, collegiality and overall satisfaction.[5]

In the last quarter century, thirty-two Ohio State faculty members have been awarded the prestigious GuggenheIM Fellowship, which is more than all other public and private Ohio universities combined. In 2008, three Ohio State faculty were awarded Guggenheim Fellowships, placing Ohio State among the top 15 universities in the nation.[6]Since the 2000/2001 award year, fifty-five Ohio State faculty members have been named as Fulbright Fellows, the highest of any Ohio university.[7]

In a 2007 report reLEAsed by the National Science FounDATion, Ohio State’s research expenditures for 2006 were $652 million, placing it 7th among public universities and 11th overall, also ranking 3rd among all American universities for private industry sponsored research. Research expenditures at Ohio State are $720 million in 2007. Ohio State also announced in 2006, that it would be designating at LEAst $110 million of its research efforts to what it termed "fundamental concerns" such as research towards a cure for cancer, renewable energy sources and sustainable drinking water supplies.[8]
