3、In-depth promotion of high-quality development of doctoral education in my country
Currently, my country's doctoral education has entered a new stage of connotative development centered on improving quality and a new stage of innovative development oriented toward improving competitiveness. To build a world-important doctoral education center, we must base ourselves on my country's national conditions, effectively learn from the world's advanced experience, be confident and self-reliant, further promote the high-quality development of my country's doctoral education, and strive to create a world-class doctoral education system with Chinese characteristics.
Give full play to the leading and driving role of universities in the construction of "double first-class" universities. To build a world-class doctoral education system with Chinese characteristics, universities in the "double first-class" construction are in the "first square". They have accumulated valuable experience in in-depth exploration of the reform of doctoral training models, improved education quality, optimized resource allocation, and improved systems and mechanisms, and have made outstanding contributions to the innovation of my country's doctoral education system in the new era. At present, "double first-class" universities should strengthen substantive cooperation with world-class universities, high-level R&D enterprises and famous scientific organizations, explore effective cooperation paths to introduce high-quality scientific research talents and educational resources, carry out joint scientific research and tackle key problems, actively participate in education and teaching evaluation certification and the formulation of scientific research rules on the international academic stage, and continuously improve the international competitiveness of my country's doctoral education and scientific research and innovation work.
Accelerate the establishment of an independent training system for top innovative talents. Currently, receiving education and training at the doctoral level has become a prerequisite for major scientific research innovation. To create a world-class doctoral education system with Chinese characteristics, we must strengthen the forward-looking layout of national strategic talent training, strengthen the construction of degree authorization points in basic disciplines, emerging disciplines, and interdisciplinary disciplines, systematically create an integrated training chain for undergraduates, masters, and doctoral students, and form a "closed loop" for the independent training system for top innovative talents. Specifically, on the one hand, w88 casino games is necessary to continuously improve the integrated top-notch talent training linkage mechanism of "basic education-undergraduate-doctoral students", make a special "upward connection" design for top-notch talent training, and formulate personalized training plans based on the differences in the training patterns of top-notch innovative talents in various disciplines and students' interests and endowments, and optimize the allocation of teaching staff and scientific research resources. On the other hand, in accordance with the law of transformation and transformation of scientific and technological innovation and knowledge production models, we must support doctoral students and supervisor teams to actively participate in project exploration by government research institutions, leading scientific and technological enterprises, and new R&D institutions, promote the integration of industry, academia, and research and application through the integration of science and education, achieve coordinated advancement of R&D activities in key areas and the cultivation of top talents, and improve the training mechanism that closely integrates the training of doctoral students with scientific research tasks.
Vigorously promote high-level international exchanges and cooperation. As my country's higher education development level continues to improve and the scale of postgraduate training continues to expand, the trend and main content of international academic exchanges and cooperation for doctoral students have changed accordingly in recent years: the scope of international academic exchanges and cooperation has continued to expand, from cooperation mainly with research universities and scientific research institutions in developed countries in Europe and the United States. Joint training and scientific research cooperation have gradually expanded to countries and regions co-constructing the “Belt and Road” and other developing countries; their voice and dominance in international academic exchanges and cooperation are also increasing. Chinese scholars are increasingly serving as venue chairpersons of important international academic conferences and presiding over the formulation of international technical standards in some engineering fields. Under such a development trend, doctoral education should have international concepts and global vision, and expand international academic exchanges and scientific and technological cooperation from different levels, fields and angles with a more confident attitude and a more proactive spirit. We should promote the doctoral training process and teaching and research content to be deeply integrated into the global innovation network and the promotion and application of emerging technologies. By building an open and integrated doctoral education system, we should make greater contributions to accelerating the construction of an important talent center and innovation highland in the world, and accelerating the construction of a strong country in education, science and technology, and a strong country in talent.
