创建现代管理科学的中国学派，这是中国管理科学界光荣而艰巨的历史使命；中国学派的基本特点是：具有中国特色，现代的，先进的，世界的，开放而与时俱进的。创建的基本途径是：洋为中用，古为今用，近为今用，综合集成。管理活动是人类的第二类活动，它为第一类活动（作业活动）提供服务；管理科学是研究管理活动规律与做好管理工作的知识体系。鉴于中文的“管理”对英文单词是“一对多”而不是“一对一”，“管理科学”与management science在含义上差别比较大，不宜来回翻译，笔者建议：在中文翻译为英文的时候，采用“管理”的汉语拼音guanli来表达，管理科学则表达为guanli science（GS），“现代管理科学的中国学派”可以翻译为The Chinese School of Modern Guanli Science（CSMGS）。选择工程管理领域开展中国学派创建工作的试验性研究，介绍了开展研究工作的设想。

There is a glorious historical mission that set up the Chinese school of modern guanli science (CSMGS) which has basic characteristics as Chinese, modern, world, opening. The basic passes of setting up CSMGS are making foreign things serve China, making the past serve the present, making the latter days serve today and future, and by meta-synthesis. Because the Chinese word guanli includes several English words as management, administration, run, supervise, governance, etc., which is one-to-many but not one-to-one, so the paper suggests directly using the guanli as translating those English words for overcoming the difficulty of academic intercourse. Guanli activity is the second kind of human activities serving for the first kind of human activities (i.e. operating activities); Guanli Science (GS) is the knowledge system of all the principles and rules of guanli activities and guanli work. As test, the engineering guanli (EG, i.e. engineering management) is our first research object.
