Abstract

The impact of unbalanced economic development on higher education in China is mainly reflected on the availability of educational resources and quality. Comparisons between east and west of China, urban and rural areas demonstrate that an unbalanced economy is a principal factor causing these disparities, for the higher economic level is the basic guarantee to support the development of higher education in particular regions. The inadequate development of the economy results in the inadequate development of education. Although higher education in China has improved, there are still many imperfect aspects. In terms of technical and innovative ability, there is a far distance between that of developed countries such as the USA. Even domestically, the huge differences in economic development levels in different areas have caused gaps. The bi-directional relationship between education and economy makes them restricted mutually, as their achievements are serving each other, and one of them would be the stakeholder and beneficiary of the development of the other. Moving onto the micro level, the family's economic capability has played a dominant role in effect the education investment which decides the choice of majors, cities that universities are located in, employment status, and what are parents expecting from higher education.
