基于大学排名的世界一流学科评价问题研究

A University Ranking-Based Study of Evaluation of World-Class Disciplinary Programs

学科是大学的根基和细胞,是否拥有世界一流学科很大程度影响到一所大学能否成为世界一流。通过研究泰晤士高等教育、上海交通大学世界一流大学研究中心、美国新闻和世界报道、德国高等教育研究中心等机构发布的大学排行榜,观察其学科评价的异同,就如何客观、科学地评价世界一流学科进行学理探讨,进而针对其中存在的问题,如学科宽度和广度、学科国际地位、研究原创性、学科平衡等作些思考。

Disciplines are the basic fields of study in a university. The strengths of world-class universities lie in their world- class disciplinary programs. Based on a comparative study of several famous world university rankings such as THE, CWCU, USNWR, CHE, and RAE, this paper discusses the scientific evaluation of world-class disciplinary programs in terms of their breadth and depth, international status, original research, internal balance, etc.
