The Value of Collaborative Education in Industry-Specific Colleges and Universities of China: Tracing the Origin, Travails and Iterations

Collaborative education is a key support for modern higher education to cultivate innovative talents, and it is also an important frontier of structural re- form on the supply side of talents in industry-specific colleges and universities. However, the value-level analysis and attribution have been weakly considered. Targeting the value divergence, demand value transference and evaluation misplace, it is urgent for industry-specific colleges and universities to scrutinize the whole collaborative education system by tracing the origin and iterations. The implementation of high-quality and characterized strategies for the development of higher education in the new era could only be achieved by exploring the unity of values, allocation of resources, integration and innovation interaction and reconstruction of evaluation.
