行业特色院校二度更名动因探讨——基于路径依赖理论视角

Renaming of universities with professional properties

在中国,行业特色院校更名频繁发生。行业特色院校更名类型多样,其中由行业性校名更改为非行业性校名(主要是综合大学校名)后,再次更改回归行业性校名(专业性院校校名)的现象近年来常有发生,难以产生协调效应。通过研究发现:行业特色院校二度更名是高校的理性诉求;高校的发展不仅仅止于更改回行业性校名即可,关键在于加强内涵式发展即不仅要型塑并突显行业特色、形成并充分利用行业性校名的品牌优势,还要加强与区域、行业主管部门的密切联系,充分发挥行业院校历史的优势。

Chinese universities are repeatedly renamed with professional properties. Certain profession --oriented universities change their names first to comprehensive universities and vice versa. Researchers argue that renaming of a university speaks for the desire, but more needs to be done in terms of innovations, collaborative development with the regions and industrial administrations.
