Making People Employable: Reforming Higher Education in China
Journal Title: Academic Research International - Year 2014, Vol 5, Issue 2
Abstract
Today, more than ever before in human history, the wealth or poverty of nations depends on the quality of higher education. Those with a larger repertoire of skills and a greater capacity for learning can look forward to lifetimes of unprecedented economic fulfillment. This paper tries to debunk some of the myths surrounding higher education and define what quality education means. This paper also outlines the nature of crisis afflicting higher education in China, points out the opportunities and highlights a few reform proposals in China to address the current morass.
