          Abstract
          
          Under the background of the reformation of universities in China, 4
          Universities including Wuhan Technical University of Surveying &
          Mapping are merged into one new comprehensive university "Wuhan
          University" on August 2, 2000, which has more than 4,000 staff
          and more than 40,000 students. 
          This paper is divided into 3 parts: 
          
            - General Introduction of Biggest Unit of High Education for
              Surveying & Mapping in China - Wuhan University
 
             
            - General Analysis on the Advantages of the University for
              Developing High Education of Surveying & Mapping
 
           
          
            The goal for combination of universities is to combine all strong
            points and advantages of all joint universities. We have to pay more
            attention on how to keep the former advantages of Wuhan Technical
            Univ. of Surveying & Mapping in Geodesy, Engineering Surveying,
            Photogrammetry & Remote Sensing, Cartography & GIS etc.; how
            to make full use of the advantages of the other 3 universities in
            Economy, Law, Administration and Environment Engineering to promote
            the development of Surveying & Mapping.
