While higher education is popular, there should also be a good elite education. Due to various reasons, such as system, culture, investment and so on, we don't know enough about the importance of promoting elite education and cultivating elite talents. Deepen the reform from the aspects of investment system, management and talent training mode, and establish the guarantee system of elite education. At present, the gross enrollment rate of higher education in China has reached 17%, with more than190,000 students, which has entered the era of popularization of higher education. Universities are gradually shifting from the edge of society to the center of society, becoming an indispensable force for economic, technological and social development. In the era of popularization of higher education in China, how to treat and run elite education well is one of the important problems facing higher education at present. The competition of elite talents is the focus of current international competition. Elite education is the main channel for elite talents to stand out. While higher education is popular, there should also be a good elite education. This is the need of economic and social development and the development of higher education itself. From the perspective of economic and social development, elite talents play a very important role in economic and social development. No matter in the fields of economy, science and technology, education, military affairs, diplomacy and culture, or in different administrative departments such as government and industry, elite talents play a mainstay role in leading the trend of social development and promoting social progress. Judging from the development of higher education itself, colleges and universities are becoming social, economic and cultural centers, playing an important role in personnel training, scientific research and social services. The combination of universities and social economy is getting closer and closer, and the task of spreading culture and international exchange is becoming more and more arduous. The level of colleges and universities is becoming an important embodiment of a country's comprehensive national strength and civilization. It is mainly the faculty that determines the level of colleges and universities, that is, the elite talents owned by this school. The key to building a world-class university is first-class teachers, that is, first-class elite talents. In fact, the main focus of the current unprecedented international competition is talent, that is, the competition and competition for elite talent resources. It can be said that if you have elite talents in a certain field, you will have the core technical foundation, technological innovation ability and strategic competitiveness in this field. The way to have elite talents is to introduce and cultivate them. In China, the introduction of elite talents is becoming an important aspect of talent sources. However, for developing countries like China, the introduction of talents, especially elite talents, is facing a situation of high cost and hard to find good talents. Therefore, training, that is, elite education, will remain the main channel for the emergence of elite talents in China. Elite education needs to be carried out from two aspects: university and social work practice. However, elite education in colleges and universities has a basic and leading role, so we should attach importance to elite education. Problems such as environment, investment, training objectives and modes are obstacles to the development of elite education. In the process of cultivating elite talents, the following problems have become obstacles to further promoting elite education:-lack of awareness and environment for cultivating elite talents. To promote elite education and cultivate elite talents, we must first have the awareness and environment to cultivate elite talents. Due to various reasons, such as system, culture and investment, we have insufficient understanding of the importance of promoting elite education and cultivating elite talents, and lack the awareness and environment for cultivating elite talents. For example, so far, we have little research on elite education. Even in the fields or industries that urgently need elite education, such as diplomacy and medical care, we have not advocated elite education, nor have we studied the related issues of elite education. -the training goal is unclear. We lack the training goal of elite talents. Science bases, engineering bases and other talent training bases also lack relevant research and clear goals. Elite education should cultivate students' ideology and morality of loving the country, the people and serving the people, good legal awareness, social responsibility and love, good integrity awareness and professional ethics. In addition, they should also have excellent learning ability, international communication ability, innovation ability and management ability, especially English ability and computer use ability. At the same time, we should have a good understanding of Chinese and western cultures, and have a good life art and cultural quality. In other words, the students trained by elite education should be high-quality innovative reserve talents with all-round development in morality, intelligence, physique and beauty, who can lead the Chinese nation to win in international competition. -insufficient investment and lack of corresponding mechanisms. Higher education in China has been facing a serious problem of insufficient investment. Not only is the infrastructure investment in talent training insufficient, but the annual training fee for talents is also very small. The average annual expenditure of college students in China is less than that of developed countries and regions 1/20. Elite education means higher standards and stricter requirements than mass education, and it also means greater investment. We should not only rely on government grants and student tuition fees, but also establish a new financing mechanism. These mechanisms may include encouraging and accepting donations, transforming achievements and transferring patents, and conducting joint training with enterprises or industry sectors. -The talent training mode needs to be improved. Talent training mode includes specialty structure, curriculum, teaching methods, practical teaching and so on. For elite education, the existing talent training model is not suitable. For example, our professional setting is still very narrow and dead. Once students enter a certain major, it is still very difficult to adjust the major, and it is still very difficult to popularize and realize the credit system. No matter in scientific research or in the adjustment of professional structure of personnel training, it is difficult to integrate and cross disciplines. In addition, the curriculum, curriculum structure, curriculum content and teaching methods also need to be improved. -Students themselves lack the motivation and elite consciousness to become elites. How to seize the most colorful four years in life, study hard, cultivate yourself into a social elite and strive for the great rejuvenation of the country and the nation is an important topic of ideological education. -teaching style and study style. The current teaching style and study style is also one of the problems that seriously hinder elite education. To become an elite and shoulder the responsibility of China's future social leadership, one must be an outstanding person with morality, responsibility, honesty, love and innovative spirit, and master special skills in related fields. School system. After years of reform, the internal management system of colleges and universities has been gradually straightened out, but there are still many places that are not suitable for elite education. For example, in the management system of teaching and research offices, departments, colleges and schools. Because all lecturers belong to a teaching and research section, and the teaching and research section is closely related to the major, it is difficult for students from different departments and majors to choose courses from each other, and different teachers in different teaching and research sections have to take more classes or even the same class because of their heavy workload. In addition, in personnel management, scientific research and teaching management, financial management, logistics management and other management systems, there are still some places that are more or less incompatible with promoting elite education. Deepen the reform of investment system, management and personnel training mode, and establish an elite education security system. We should study and demonstrate elite education and pay attention to the cultivation of elite talents. In my opinion, the following measures are worth considering:-Several universities should be oriented towards elite education. By the end of 2003, there were 1552 colleges and universities in China. We need some colleges and universities that focus on elite education. These schools should not enroll too many students, nor should they focus on popular education such as adult education and higher vocational education. They should formulate strategies around elite education, increase investment, consolidate achievements, promote and deepen reforms, and cultivate elite talents needed by the country and the nation. -A number of colleges and universities should attach importance to and promote elite education in certain fields. We have a group of universities with high academic level, profound cultural background and many well-known scholars. These universities have the level and conditions to carry out elite education, but they also undertake the task of serving local economic development and cultivating talents for local popular higher education. And their sources of funds are relatively tight. In this case, these high-level universities should focus on elite education while ensuring the quality of education and teaching. The focus of elite education is to cultivate students' all-round development. The focus of elite education is to cultivate students in an all-round way, so that they can get exercise in a suitable environment and lay the foundation for the elite who will step into society in the future. This includes the cultivation of elite consciousness, ideological and moral quality, honesty and legal consciousness, social responsibility and love, ability and knowledge. In the aspect of ability training, we should emphasize the cultivation of innovation ability and international communication ability, especially the cultivation of language and culture ability. In addition, we should also emphasize the cultivation of practical ability. -Deepen the reform of investment system, management and personnel training mode, and establish an elite education guarantee system. There are two key points in promoting elite education. One is to have teachers who can undertake the task of elite education, and the other is to have a guarantee system including investment and management. To do a good job in elite education, we must reform all kinds of problems discussed above, and at the same time establish a new mechanism and a new talent training model. For example, we should promote research-based learning, which closely combines scientific research with teaching and reforms the old teaching content and teaching mode. Promote the tutorial system and credit system for undergraduates, and reform the old professional enrollment and fixed academic system. Promote the performance allocation mechanism and reform the old per capita allocation system. Only by deepening the reform can we establish the training guarantee mechanism of elite education. Elite education is an important event in the era of popularization of higher education in China. How to lay a good foundation for cultivating high-quality elite talents is an objective requirement for colleges and universities in the current domestic and international situation. We should study carefully, respond cautiously, deepen reform, give full play to the role of teachers and students as masters, further improve the quality of education and teaching, and run elite education in the era of popularization of higher education.
