Evolution Characteristics of Government-Industry-University Cooperative Innovation Network of Electronic Information Industry in Liaoning Province, China

It is important to optimize the cooperative innovation network for the improvement of economic competence and innovative power. Based on the patent information services platform, we obtain invention patent data for the electronic information industry in Liaoning from 1985 to 2015. This paper analyzes the cooperative innovation network structure, its spatiotemporal evolution and the triple helix relationship of government-industry-university(GIU) by using the social network analysis method and the triple helix theory as well as UCINet, ArcGIS and NetDraw. The empirical results show that: 1) the number of the subjects of the electronic information industry GIU cooperative innovation network in Liaoning demonstrates a gradual increase from 1985 to 2015, with the same trend in concentration. In terms of its subject and its centrality, the universities have a higher position, and the industries have a lower position,while the status of the government is still unclear. 2) The cooperative innovation network presents a core-periphery structure, and the polarization effect of innovation subjects tends to be obvious. There is certain distance-decay regularity in the cooperative innovation network, and a strong geographical proximity to cooperative innovation. 3) The compactness shows a downward trend as a whole. In terms of the extent of participation, the industries are better than the government but worse than the universities. This means that the cooperative innovation network of GIU in the electronic information industry in Liaoning is in the initial stage of formation.

Research on the “New University” Management System from the Perspective of Finance

Since the release of the“Outline of the National Medium-and Long-Term Education Reform and Development Plan(2010-2020),”“new universities”have garnered widespread attention.The system and mechanism of these“new universities”are different from those of traditional universities.They have their own ways of running schools,management systems,and personnel training methods,all of which bring a different kind of pressure to government management.Looking from a financial perspective,this is also the key research subject of finance and financial personnel.We put forward implementation suggestions for the construction of the“new university”management system based on the experience summed up in the work and contribute to the country’s higher education.

A New Approach to University IT Project Portfolio Management Based on Multi-Criteria Methods and the COBIT 5 Governance Framework

Project portfolio management is a major challenge for some organizations.In most organizations,there are a large number of projects active at the same time,some not necessarily delivering value or not aligned with their strategic goals.Also universities face a lot of uncertainties when selecting and prioritizing the projects that make up their portfolio.In addition,the achievement of those who are aligned with the strategy of the university becomes a great challenge.So to ensure good project portfolio management,the implementation of selection and prioritization methods and processes becomes important.For the project portfolio management to be effective,it is necessary to establish a structured method adapted to the needs and strategy of the university.In this context,this paper proposes a method for selecting and prioritizing projects within the framework of the portfolio management dedicated to universities,which can promote harmony between the university’s strategy,the needs and the priority objectives for enable better decision-making.This method is based on the processes of the COBIT 5 good practice framework,and on the multi-criteria decision-making methods AHP,TOPSIS and the WSM technique,thus,it proposes seven project selection criteria based on the five axes IT governance strategies and two catalysts derived from COBIT 5 enablers.The evaluation and validation of this method was applied in the portfolio management of the Abdelmalek Essaadi Moroccan University(AUE).The result shows that this proposed method has made it possible to make a better selection and prioritization of the portfolio of projects of Abdelmleek Essaadi University having the most value.

论高校内部治理的症结及疏解策略

高校内部治理是高校治理的重要环节,关系着高等教育的质量和水平。科层制模式下,高校内部治理存在着政府外部行政权传导的高校内部行政权与高校办学自主权之间的矛盾、高校内部学术权力与行政权力之间的矛盾、学生组织与学校党政职能部门之间的矛盾,并表现为人事治理症结、财务治理症结、合同治理症结。究其原因,法治保障的缺乏、行政权力的过分倚重、机构权责不清、监督机制缺乏是高校内部治理矛盾和症结的成因。因此,必须从积极推进依法治校、优化高校内部权力配置、摒弃落后的管理理念与习惯、实现多元主体的治理动能等层面予以疏解。

人工智能赋能大学治理:多重效应与治理效能转化

当人工智能与大学治理相遇后,数字化不仅成为提升大学治理能力和治理水平现代化的客观要求,还成为推进大学治理创新和制度变迁的重要途径。根据大学制度的层级结构、治理结构的复杂性程度以及治理事项的数字化程度,建构制度嵌入下人工智能技术赋能大学治理的解释模型,并借此模型着重分析人工智能技术对大学治理影响的多重效应及其治理效能转化机制/过程。研究发现,在制度嵌入和人工智能技术的共同影响下,现代大学治理随着大学制度外显性的不断加强而愈显复杂,在此渐进过程中,人工智能技术的影响力和渗透力也就愈加微弱,由此产生了人工智能技术对大学治理影响的多重效应及其治理效能的不同转化和提升机制:大学治理结构的复杂性程度越低,大学制度的层级结构越低,治理领域可数字化的程度就越高,人工智能技术对大学治理的积极效应越显著,大学具体制度得以更迭的可能性越大,也就愈容易借助“技术—制度”协同机制将中国特色现代大学的制度优势转化为治理效能;大学治理结构的复杂化程度越高,大学制度的层级结构越高,治理领域可数字化的程度越低,人工智能技术对大学治理的抑制效应越明显,其所依靠的(部分)基本制度和基础制度被替代/更迭的速度越慢,而被同化的可能性越大,也就越容易走上模仿西方大学制度建设的路径依赖。为此,一方面,要注重人工智能技术对大学治理的积极效应,充分发挥人工智能技术对于大学常规性治理、(部分)决策性治理的积极作用,通过大学具体制度和基本制度的不断健全和完善,推动现代大学制度的标准化建设和精细化发展;另一方面,要警惕人工智能技术对大学治理带来的潜在危险,充分考虑现代大学的组织特性,避免过度技术化而导致大学治理中技术应用的无限拓展和无序泛化。

数字技术赋能大学治理:价值、技术与制度的逻辑

借助数字技术的赋能,实现大学治理体系的数字化转型既是顺应数字时代的应有之义,也是推进高等教育内涵式发展的必然选择。数字技术赋能的大学治理,在理论层面,需在合理选择价值取向的基础上,充分利用技术赋能实现治理目标。在实践层面,也要理解其技术机理,从制度层面规避、防范与应对数字风险,形成治理与技术双向构建的可循环模式。因此,可以从价值、技术与制度三个层面探析数字技术赋能大学治理的逻辑理路。其中,价值逻辑为工具理性与价值理性的相互耦合,技术逻辑为数字技术对大学治理体系多维重构,制度逻辑为对技术与风险的动态响应。基于逻辑理路发现:当前实践过程中还存在工具理性僭越、数字技术异化与制度机制落后等实然困境,需要从深化相关理论,培养数字领导力与推进制度创新三个方面上探析数字技术赋能大学治理的优化路径。

民办高校如何加强党的领导和建设——兼谈民办高校治理和大学文化建设

党的领导和党的建设是民办高校优化提升内部治理体系和治理能力的最核心、最关键的问题。不同于公办高校实行党委领导下的校长负责制,民办高校实行的是董事会依据大学章程进行办学和管理、坚持党的领导和依法治校有机统一的制度。民办高校党委要行使两大职能:一是发挥政治核心作用,包括加强和改进思想政治教育及立德树人的工作;二是要执行政府对民办高校的督导功能,督促学校依法办学,规范管理,切实维护民办高校的和谐稳定。同时,民办高校在发展过程中,尤其要注重完善内部治理模式,加强大学文化和大学精神建设,找准定位、依法办学、特色强校、文化聚人,走个性化、特色化办学之路,从而为中国教育事业的发展作出杰出贡献。
