Research on Dynamic Monitoring System of Discipline Construction in Universities: Frame, Index and Practice

Purpose/Significance Dynamic monitoring of discipline construction, an important means to build world-leading disciplines and internal quality assurance system of universities, is of great significance to the development of national higher education, the connotative construction of universities and the enhancement of discipline strength. Design/Methodology Based on multi-perspectives, elements, and methods, this paper puts forward a framework of dynamic monitoring of discipline construction, and designs a proposal comprising index system and monitoring platform for the dynamic monitoring of discipline construction from four dimensions of characteristic and connotative development, process construction and performance output, domestic and international influence, talent cultivation and national strategy. Findings/Conclusions The dynamic monitoring system of discipline construction constructed in this paper has more accurate discipline classification and more abundant monitoring elements. Furthermore, the practice from some university shows that the monitoring system can better reflect the differential development trend of disciplines and effectively boost universities’ discipline construction.
