摘要

高等教育的全球化和规模的迅速扩张,使各国的高等教育质量保障面临严峻挑战。不
断探索和完善高等教育质量保障体系和机制,是每个国家都迫切需要解决的教育问题。本
论文通过对中美两国高等教育质量保障制度的对比研究,提出了完善和健全我国高等教育
质量评估制度的建议。
第一部分,引言,主要分析了高等教育质量保障的必要性,梳理了目前国内外高等教
育质量保障研究的成果和不足。同时,也对本论文的研究方法进行说明,界定了主要概念。
第二部分,回顾了中美两国高等质量保障的历史。从中可以看出美国高等教育质量认
证的历史远远长于我国高等教育质量评估的历史,而且,美国高等教育质量认证从一开始
就带有鲜明的非官方印迹,而中国高等教育质量评估则更多官方色彩。
第三部分,主要从开展高等教育质量保障的主体、方式和内容、组织机构的成员组成
和经费来源、程序和步骤,以及认证/评估结果的监督等五个方面对两国高等教育质量保
障制度进行对比分析。
第四部分,从历史、文化和社会生活等方面分析两种不同的高等教育质量保障制度形
成的原因。
第五部分,论文结论。本研究认为,完善和改进我国高等教育质量评估,需要通过推
动高等教育评估的市场化、转变政府职能、允许和鼓励民间中介结构参与,建立和完善市
场主导性的高等教育质量评估模式,同时发挥政府、媒介、用人单位的监督作用。
