Internationalization of Higher Education in Shandong in the New Era: Challenges and Countermeasures

Abstract

Under the background of the deepening reform in the new era, promoting the internationalization and construction of higher education is the fundamental path of transforming Chinese universities into world-class universities. This paper mainly studies the challenges faced by the internationalization of higher education in Shandong in the new era and the countermeasures for them. Among them, the predicament is expounded from several aspects, including the international school-running structure, the foreign high-quality educational resources, the international teachers, and the international exchanges and cooperation. Shandong’s higher education is faced with problems in its internationalized school-running structure; hence, corresponding countermeasures are proposed. Shandong Province must adhere to the principle of “adapting measures to local conditions” in order to formulate medium and long-term development plans and pay attention to the construction of international teachers.
