大学在发展新质生产力中的使命与挑战

The Mission and Challenge of Universities in Developing New Quality Productive Forces

发展新质生产力的核心要素是创新,发展新质生产力是我国应对经济社会发展面临的复杂挑战、适应全球新一轮科技革命与竞争及产业变革深入发展的必然选择。新质生产力的三大要素是高素质的劳动者、高科技含量的劳动资料、以新材料和新能源为代表的劳动对象。当然,与之相对应的生产关系,也会随之变革与调整。大学作为人才培养的主体,创新的聚集地,在培养新质劳动者、提供新质劳动资料、拓展新质劳动对象、构建新型劳动关系等方面肩负着重任。但与之不相对应的是大学在拔尖创新人才培养、基础研究和前沿研究、产学研合作等方面存在着严重短板。要提升大学服务新质生产力发展的能力,需要建立动态的有效的学科专业和培养模式调整机制,优化创新人才的培养环境,促进基础研究和前沿研究的长效机制建设,完善科研成果转化机制和产学研的合作机制。只有这样,才能使大学这个推动社会发展、培养创新思维和塑造价值观的核心杻纽成为发展新质生产力的中心。

The core factor of developing new quality productivity is innovation.For China,developing these forces is not just a strategic choice but a necessity to navigate the complexities of economic and social development,and to thrive amidst global scientific and technological revolutions and competitions,alongside the deepening of industrial transformations.The three key components of new quality productive forces are skilled workers,advanced labor materials,and innovative labor objects,such as new materials and energy sources.The associated production relations will also evolve and adapt accordingly.Universities,serving as hubs of talent cultivation and innovation,bear significant responsibilities in nurturing high-quality workers,providing the necessary labor materials,expanding the scope of labor objects,and constructing new types of labor relations.However,universities face serious shortcomings in cultivating top-tier innovative talents,advancing basic and frontier research,and fostering effective industry-university research cooperation.To enhance universities’capacity in serving the development of new quality productive forces,it is imperative to establish dynamic and effective mechanisms for adjusting disciplines and cultivation modes,optimize the environment for nurturing innovative talents,promote the construction of long-term mechanisms for basic and cutting-edge research,and refine the mechanisms for transforming scientific research achievements and facilitating industry-university research collaboration.Only through these measures can universities,as the cornerstone of societal development,innovative thinking,and value shaping,truly become the focal point for fostering new quality productive forces.
