The U.S. Financial-aid System for Disadvantaged Undergraduates Studying Abroad: The Case of Benjamin A. Gilman International Scholarship

美国高等教育阶段学生的国际流动处于世界领先地位,这得益于该国设置了名目繁多的留学资助项目,本杰明·吉尔曼国际奖学金便是其中的一个重要代表。与一般留学资助项目不同,该奖学金侧重于资助由贫困学生、少数族裔学生和残障学生构成的弱势学生群体,鼓励学生前往非传统目的地留学,并以中长期留学生的身份系统学习美国迫切需要的语言和冷门专业。究其背后的原因,促进教育公平、服务国家利益、增强学生国际化职业需求等是主要因素。总体来看,本杰明·吉尔曼国际奖学金实施的成效在于:资助了一大批弱势大学生出国留学;引起了广泛的社会关注,获得了良好的社会声誉;提升了美国公民参与世界事务的能力;强化了美国社会的凝聚力。As the leader in international student mobility in the realm of higher education, the United States benefits from a bunch of scholarship programs, among which Benjamin A. Gilman International Scholarship is a typical one. Compared with regular scholarship programs for overseas study, this program aims to encourage disadvantaged undergraduate students consisting of impoverished students, ethnic minority students and students with disabilities to go to unconventional destinations and systematically study critical need languages and unpopular majors on a mid-and-long term basis. Enhancing educational fairness, serving the national interests, and preparing students to assume significant roles in an increasingly global economy and interdependent world are the driving forces behind the program. The achievements of the scholarship program may be summarized as follows： subsidizing a large number of students to study abroad, arousing widespread social concern and obtaining good social reputation, enhancing the ability of U.S. citizens to participate in global affairs, and improving social cohesion of the United States

Characteristics of the Development of Overseas University Branch Campus and Its Enlightenment

近年来,在世界范围内掀起一股大学海外分校热。文章通过对国外大学海外分校发展的研究,发现其创办动因复杂多元;经费保障是可持续发展的关键;学科专业设置服务区域发展需要;高质量办学是输入国主要诉求。鉴于这些特点,作为国外大学海外分校在我国实现形式的中外合作大学,在发展中应坚持公益性办学导向,明确教育活动本质;积极构建多元化筹资模式;科学、合理设置学科专业;不断提升办学质量。Setting overseas branch campus is becoming a worldwide trend for universities in recent years.By studying the development of foreign university branch campus(FUBC),the paper finds that:they are established for complex and various reasons;guarantee of funds is the key to FUBC's sustainable development;disciplines and majors are set adapting to needs of local development;high quality education is the main demands of input nation.In view of these,the development of Sino-foreign university should insist non-profit and keep the nature of education,actively build diversified model for funding raising,set disciplines and majors scientifically and reasonably,and enhance the quality of education continuously

The View on Quality Assurance in Chinese-Foreign Cooperation in Running Schools

质量建设是当前中外合作办学发展的核心取向,树立科学合理的质量观,是中外合作办学质量建设中的先决问题。当前中外合作办学实践中形成不良办学倾向的重要原因之一,是中外合作办学的质量观存在偏差。中外合作办学的特殊价值在于高素质国际化人才的培养;应坚持统一与多样相结合的中外合作办学质量观,并坚持主体性原则和发展性原则等。Quality assurance is the core goal in development of Chinese-Foreign Cooperation in Running Schools(CFCRS), and establishing a scientific and reasonable quality concept is the first problem to deal with.One important reason of bad trend in current CFCRS practice is the wrong view of quality assurance in CFCRS.The special value of CRCFS is to cultivate high quality and international talents.The article propose the unity combining variety view and several basic rules on quality assurance in CFCRS, and we should hold several basic principles such as dialectical principle, the development principle, the principle of subjectivity and creative principle rules

The thinking on the quality construction in Chinese-foreign cooperation in running schools

质量建设是当前中外合作办学发展的战略选择,然而高等教育界对中外合作办学的质量建设导向、质量建设主体、质量建设抓手等问题的理论认识模糊,导致中外合作办学质量建设仍然难以落到实处。因此,厘清中外合作办学质量建设的相关理论问题,是中外合作办学质量建设不能回避的。坚持以提升跨境高等教育治理能力为质量建设根本导向,确立"政府+高校"为质量建设的双主体,选取课程、教学、师资为质量建设的抓手,是破解中外合作办学质量建设难以落入实处的应对之策。Quality construction is the strategic choice of Chinese-foreign cooperation in running schools（CFCRS）,but quality construction in CFCRS still has little effect in reality due to higher education′s fuzzy understanding on some theories about the guide,subjects,and core points etc.of quality construction in CFCRS.Therefore,to identify the problem of related theories of quality construction in CFCRS is inescapable in quality construction in CFCRS.Persistently taking ＂to promote the governance ability of cross-border higher education＂ as the fundamental guide,confirming ＂ governments＋universities＂ as main bodies,and choosing curriculum,teaching and faculty as core points,are countermeasures for resolving problems of weak enforcement of quality construction in CFCRS.教育部人文社会科学重点研究基地重大项目(16JJD880028)
