政府扩大高等学校的研发经费占比势在必行

 一个国家即使发表了很多科学论文，申请了很多发明专利，也未必能有效地促进本国的创新发展和经济增长。关键在于不仅要通过研究开发生产出一批高质量的科技成果，而且还要通过研究开发培养出一批高素质的科技人才。虽然高校在开展科学研究方面具有更高的科技成果和科技人才产出效益，但是政府投给高校的研发经费占比却严重偏低，以致在校学生很少有机会接受严格的科学研究训练。在美国已开始严控中国理工科学生和学者赴美交流，中美技术战将陷入长期化的情况下，政府有必要进一步加大高校的研发经费投入，尽可能地将政府投给高校的研发经费占比提高到30%以上，以接近发达国家的水准，从而为高校提升科技人才培养质量提供强有力的支撑。

Universities should receive a higher proportion in governmental R&D funding

The rapid increase ofthe nation' sscientific journal papers and technological patents may not make its due contribution to innovation and economical development. To fully realize its potential, scientific research must play a dual role of not only developing high-quality scientific and technological products but also cultivating well-trained talents. In this regard, universities are obviously advantageous because of their research-orientednature. However, the proportion allocated to universities by the overall governmental R&D funding is seriously imbalanced with their importance, which results in a huge shortage of rigid scientific training for university students. With the increaseofobstacles in scientific communications as well as long-term technological competition between China and the US, Chinese government must increase its R&D funding for universities, ideally to a proportion of 30%, close to that in thedeveloped country, so as to provide rigorous support to universities in cultivating highlevel researchers.
