Abstract
- It is an inevitable trend of the development of world first-class universities to promote the construction of a powerful country in higher education and to build and own a number of world first-class universities around the world. Under the actual background of the construction of "world first-class university," this paper studies the comprehensive evaluation of university competitiveness. Firstly, considering the selection condition and development tasks of "world first-class university," 13 indexes are selected to construct a comprehensive evaluation index system of university competitiveness from six aspects of talent training, scientific research, teacher construction, social service, social reputation and internationalization degree, and the method of principal component analysis (PCA) is used to determine the weights of these 13 indexes. Secondly, a new Deviation Degree-Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (DD-TOPSIS) method is proposed to comprehensively evaluate the university competitiveness. Thirdly, 15 universities in Hubei Province of China and 10 top universities in UK are selected for empirical analysis, respectively. Finally, according to the results of empirical analysis, some suggestions on the construction of "world first-class university" are provided from the aspects of teacher construction, talent training, social service and university management.
