Abstract

This paper evaluates the level of modernization of higher education in China and analyses the regional differences between provincial and provincial levels of modernization of higher education by constructing five objectives and 23 indicators, including modernization of educational concept, content, equipment, contingent and management, in order to provide reference for the reform of modernization of higher education. The results show that: (1) The overall level of higher education modernization in China's provinces is not high, while that in Beijing, Jiangsu, Shanghai, Guangdong and Zhejiang provinces is relatively high. (2) Except for Fujian Province, the modernization of higher education in the eastern coastal areas is relatively high, while the modernization of higher education in the western areas is relatively low, except in Shaanxi Province and Sichuan Province. (3) Compared with the international advanced education in the world, China's higher education shows disadvantage in various indicators, and there is still a big gap compared with the average level of OECD countries.
