全面建成小康社会背景下的中国高等教育发展：成就与挑战

 党的十六大以来，中国小康社会建设目标分阶段实现从总体上达到小康水平到全面建成小康社会。随着经济社会的发展，高等教育从量上实现了从大众化向普及化的发展，从质上也开始从外延式发展转向内涵式发展。同时，高等教育也从人才队伍建设、创新人才培养、科学研究发展、优秀文化传承、科技成果转化等方面，为全面建成小康社会时期各项国家战略的实现发挥了强有力的推动作用。随着新时期中国社会主要矛盾的转化，对高等教育的发展也提出了新的挑战。高等教育要进一步加强内涵发展，聚焦人才培养根本，实现高等教育区域均衡发展，进一步提升高等教育创新驱动经济社会发展的能力。

Development of China's higher education in the context of building a moderately prosperous society in all respects: Achievements and challenges

Since the 16th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the goal of building a well-off society in China has been achieved in stages from reaching a well-off level in general to building a well-off society in an all-round way. Accordingly, higher education has achieved a quantitative development from massive higher education to universal higher education, and begun to shift from extensional development to connotative development in qualitative aspects. At the same time, higher education has also played a powerful role in promoting the realization of various national strategies during the period of building a well-off society in terms of talent team construction, cultivation of innovative personnel, scientific research and development, excellent cultural inheritance, and transformation of scientific and technological achievements and other aspects. The transformation of the main social contradictions in the country poses new challenges to the development of higher education. Higher education should further strengthen its connotative development, focus on the fundamentals of talent cultivation, realize balanced regional development of higher education, and improve the driving force for higher education innovation.
