A major transformation of Chinese higher education (HE) has taken
place over the past decade - China has reshaped its higher
education sector from elite to mass education with the number of
graduates having quadrupled to three million a year over six years.
China is exceptional among lower income countries in using tertiary
education as a development strategy on such a scale, aiming to
improve the quality of its graduates, and make HE available to as
many of its citizens as possible. This book provides a critical
examination the challenges to the development and sustainability of
higher education in China: Can its universities move from quantity
to quality? How will so many graduates find jobs in line with their
expectations? Can Britain and other western countries continue to
benefit from China's education boom? What are the prospects for
collaboration in research? This book evaluates the prospects for
Chinese and foreign HE providers, regulators and other
stakeholders. It introduces the key changes in China's HE programme
since the Opening-Up policy in 1978 and analyses the achievements
and the challenges over the subsequent three decades. Furthermore,
it sheds light on new reforms that are likely to take place in the
future, particularly as a result of the ongoing international
financial crisis.
