在中国经济社会和高等教育转型的背景下,民族院校面临着生源结构变化、高等教育国际化与信息化、中国社会经济结构转型等三方面的挑战。而国家宏观政策的调整、民族地区经济社会对人才旺盛需求以及中国高等教育的转型也为民族院校的发展提供了新的机遇。 Against the backdrop of the transformation of China’s economy and society and higher education, ethnic minority colleges and universities are facing challenges in three aspects: changes in student structure, internationalization and informationization of higher education, and the transformation of China’s social and economic structure. The adjustment of national macroeconomic policies, the strong demand of the economically and socially powerful people in ethnic minority areas and the transformation of China’s higher education have also provided new opportunities for the development of national institutions of higher learning.
