美国研究型大学的社会评价体系研究

Research on the Social Evaluation System of American Research Universities

摘要:

美国研究型大学的社会评价体系较为完善,形成了以大学分类、大学认证和大学排名为代表的评价系统。综合分析卡内基分类中“博士点大学”的分类规则、美国大学联合会的入会规则和美国顶尖研究型大学的排名规则对我国建立多样化的、独立的、动态竞争的、兼顾规模和质量的社会评价体系有一定的借鉴意义。

Abstract:

The social evaluation system of American Research Universities is well established. The system mainly consists of university classification, university accreditation and university ranking. The study analyses the methodology of Doctorate-granting Universities in Carnegie Classification, the AAU membership policy and the methodology of Top American Research University Ranking. The results provide constructive suggestions to build a diverse, independent and dynamic social evaluation system in China, which will help Chinese research universities to strike a balance between university size and education quality.
