摘要
在21世纪来临前后,世界上多个国家或地区纷纷推出了各自的高等教育重点建设计划,有选择地重点建设一批世界一流大学和高水平研究型大学与学科,以提高本国或本地区高等教育的国际竞争力。1999年1月13日,国务院批准教育部发布《面向21世纪教育振兴行动计划》,标志着我国建设高水平大学计划(即“985工程”)正式启动。在“985工程”一期、二期建设的十年中,各高校在拔尖创新人才培养、科技创新能力建设、服务国家经济与社会发展、自身体制机制改革探索等方面取得了显著成效,但所暴露出的问题也备受关注,如管理运行机制不健全、资金配置及使用效率低、国际交流项目缺乏完善的监督机制,其效率与质量无法保证等。基于此,本文对高等教育资源配置效率、高校生产效率以及“公派研究生项目”实施效率等问题进行实证分析,进而探寻影响“985工程”实施效率与绩效的关键因素。
     首先,本文清晰地界定高校资源配置效率及生产效率的基本内涵,并在此基础上介绍“985工程”建设的基本情况,特别是工程二期开始推行的科技创新平台与哲学社会科学创新基地建设,及“国家建设高水平大学公派研究生项目”开展的基本情况。接着,分别对韩国“21世纪智慧韩国工程”、日本“21世纪卓越基地COE项目”以及德国“卓越计划”的启动与具体实施以及存在的问题和相关改革经验进行了系统的比较分析。针对我国“985工程”一期、二期建设中暴露出的问题,并借鉴上述有益的国际经验,指出“985工程”后续建设的可行性方向。
     其次,从经济学角度提出考察我国“985工程”资源配置效率的新思路,应用动态权重分析方法,分别将2001-2007年间“985”高校与非“985”高校的科研与教学生产效率增长分解为3个部分,即“高校内”、“协方差”及“高校间”部分。研究发现,“985”高校从规模到生产效率方面的各项指标普遍优于非“985”高校,尤其是获得了更多的教育事业经费和政府R&D拨款的支持。虽然高校自身生产力的增长是高等教育整体发展的主要源动力,但提高资源配置效率带来的整体效率提升也不能忽视。研究表明,我国高等教育的科研资源配置正在向合理方向转移,但仍未能通过合理配置资源实现科研生产效率的最大化。
     再次,在回顾高校生产效率研究的理论基础及其发展现状的基础上,推导出高等教育领域的科研与教学生产方程,并运用最小二乘回归及固定效应模型对生产方程的参数进行估算,且分别对高校科研与教学生产效率的增长要素进行系统的分析。研究表明,相对于其他教师来说,青年教师对高校科研生产效率的增长具有显著促进作用;“985”高校博士生对论文产出的贡献作用要显著高于非“985”高校的博士生。从经费资助来源来看,“985”高校在研究生项目的教学中,主要依靠科学与研发经费的资金支持,而非“985”高校体现出对国家教育事业经费拨款的依赖。由此可见,在研究生培养中,“985”高校更注重以科研为导向、以课程教学为辅助的培养机制。
     再其次,本文对“985工程”中重要的国际合作项目——“国家建设高水平大学公派研究生项目”的开展情况及实施效率问题进行较深入的实证分析。根据项目实施中关键的择校环节,构造了需求—供给模型,并创造性的构建了特殊的数据集,进而应用GLS模型和截断数据模型对影响择校成功率的主要因素进行了拟合。实证研究显示,在出国留学信息膨胀、搜索及筛选成本提高的背景下,社会关系等非传统因素显著影响着高校与学生之间的双向选择,成为左右“公派研究生项目”实施效率的关键因素,在项目后续实施中的需要引起足够的重视,并加以正确的引导。
     最后,从构建科学高效的管理体制、创新平台与基地建设、以及加强国际合作三个方面,提出提升“985工程”绩效的政策建议并总结全文。
Around the twenty first century, governments from lots of different countries in the world established plans on major construction of higher education respectively, which aims to set up some top-ranking universities, high level research universities and academic subjects; and to increases the international competition level of national or regional higher education as well. On the January 13th, 1999, Ministry of Education of the PRC issued“the plan for the revitalization of the 21st century of Education”, which indicated the“985 Project”had started up formally. During the first decade of“985 Project”, that is first and second phases, the universities under this project have achieved prominent success in plenty of aspects, like the cultivation of top-notch innovative talents, the forming of technological innovative capabilities, the service on national economic and social development, and the reform on self-institutional operation, etc. However, the undressed problems are still receiving much attention, including the un-sound administrative operation mechanisms, low-efficient capital allocation and application, imperfect supervisory mechanisms and un-ensured efficiency & quality of the international exchange programs, etc. Based on these shortages above, this paper makes empirical analysis on the resource allocative efficiency of higher education, the productive efficiency of Chinese universities, the operation efficiency of GSJT program, and explores the key elements affect the“985 Project”operation efficiency and performance.
     Firstly, this paper clearly elaborates the connotation of resource allocation and productive efficiency of the higher education. And based on that, generally introduces the proceeding information about the“985 Project”, containing especially the construction of scientific technology innovation platforms and social science innovation centers in the second phase of“985 Project”, and the operation situation of the ongoing GSJT program. Then, it takes all-around comparative analysis on the startup, implementing, and existing problems and reform experience of“Brain Korea 21 Project”,“Japanese21st Century Center of Excellence Program”and“German Universities Excellence Initiative”. Aimed at the main problems emerged in the first and second phases of“985 Project”, and learning from the instructive international experience, the paper aims to point out a feasible direction for this ongoing project.
     Secondly, from the economic angle, it examines the resource allocation efficiency of“985 Project”, and uses a shift-share analysis to decompose research and teaching productivity growth of universities under”985 project”or not during 2001-2007 into within, between, and covariance three components. The result finds that not only on the scale but also in many aspects of the productive efficiency, especially the obtaining of nation educational expenditure input and government R&D fund, the universities under the“985 Project”always exceed the universities which are not under it but belonging to the Ministry of Education. Though, the university self-productivity growth is the headstream of the development of the higher education sector, we still can not ignore enhancing the fund allocation efficiency which can also advance the whole productive efficiency. At present, though the research resource allocation of Chinese higher education is shifting to a viable direction, we still can not realize the research productive efficiency maximum by allocating fund reasonably.
     Thirdly, after reviewing the theory basis and current development of the university productive efficiency, the paper infers research and instructions production equations of higher education, and afterward estimates the parameters of the equation by OLS regression and fixed effects models. The study indicates, comparing to other faculties, young faculties have made more promoting contribution to the increase of the university research productive efficiency. Meanwhile, the PHD candidates from the universities under the“985 Project”have higher significant effect on the paper production than the one not under it. For the fund which supports the instruction of master program, the universities under“985 Project”primarily relies on R&D fund, but the universities not under the“985 Project”on the national education expenditure input. Obviously, in the process of master cultivation, the universities under the“985 Project”are more interested in the mechanism mainly focusing on the scientific research, and supplemented by curriculum instruction.
     Fourthly, this paper carries through an in-depth empirical analysis on the operating situation and implementing efficiency of GSJT program which is a significant important international cooperating program under the“985 Project”. For the key phase of this program, students choosing school abroad, we built a demand and supply model and use a unique data set on Chinese visiting students in the US, investigate some non-traditional determinants, such as social networks/connections, on the number of Chinese students hosted in American universities. Applying truncated, OLS, and GLS estimation, we find that social networks/connections have a strong positive and significant effect given the potentially larger cost in searching for information in a foreign country. Such connections become even more important in the context of studying abroad, especially become the essential factor influencing the implementing efficiency of GSJT program, and should be given adequate regards and correct guidance in the future.
     Lastly, the paper puts forward the policy suggestions on building efficient management system, constructing scientific technology innovation platforms and social science innovation centers, and enstrengthing international cooperation, to enhance the performance of“985 Project”and summarizes all of the chapters.
