来华留学研究生教育对我国产业结构升级的影响机制研究

On How the Mechanism of the Education for International Postgraduates Studying in China Influences the Upgrading of China’s Industrial Structure

采用中国30个省级行政区1999—2018年的面板数据,构建动态面板模型,分析来华留学研究生对地区产业结构升级的影响,并进一步探寻、验证其中的影响机制。研究结论为:第一,来华留学研究生教育的发展能够促进地区产业结构升级,这一结果十分稳健。第二,技术进步、物质资本积累和需求结构调整是来华留学研究生与地区产业结构升级之间的间接渠道。据此建议:大力发展来华留学生教育,扩大来华留学研究生规模;严格招生标准,着力提升来华留学研究生生源质量。

By using a dynamic panel model built on the panel data of 30 provincial-level administrative regions in China from 1999 to 2018,this study analyzes the impact of international postgraduates studying in China on the upgrading of regional industrial structure,and further explores and tests the influence mechanism.The conclusions of this study can be summarized as follows:first,the development of international postgraduate education in China can promote the upgrading of regional industrial structure-the result is stable and robust;and second,technological progress,physical capital accumulation and demand structure adjustment are indirect channels between international postgraduates studying in China and the regional industrial structure upgrading.Therefore,the authors propose that we should vigorously develop international postgraduate education,increase the number of the postgraduates,maintain strict admission criteria,and strive to ensure the quality of the international postgraduates who want to study in China.
