省域高水平大学建设的政策效应评估——以广东省“冲补强”提升计划为例

A Quasi-experimental Study on the effect of the Provincial High-level University Policy in Guangdong

为策应国家“双一流”建设,各省(自治区、直辖市)先后实施了旨在提升办学质量的高水平大学建设计划,广东高等教育“冲一流、补短板、强特色”提升计划以启动早和投入大而备受关注。该计划首个建设周期已满,评估其政策效应能为改进省域高水平大学建设政策提供参考。通过收集2012年至2020年校际面板数据,采用多时点双重差分法构建计量模型,评估“冲补强”提升计划的政策效应。研究发现,政策实施后,入选高校的科研水平和人才培养层次均得到显著提高;同时,政策效应的异质性分析显示,“冲一流”高校、“补短板”高校、“强特色”高校分别实现了其在ESI学科建设、师资队伍建设和创新平台建设等方面的政策目标。展望未来,省域高水平大学建设应更侧重人才培养质量,加强政策的持续性,提高政策的精准性,重视人文社会科学建设。
