Maintain the stability, continuity and long-term nature of counterpart support policies? Higher education is a long-term undertaking, and it will take a long historical period for the western higher education to catch up with the development level of the eastern region. There should be a long-term support plan for the aided universities, determine the long-term development goals, and consider designing the policy of counterpart support construction in the future 10 to 20 years.

Judging from the actual situation of recipient universities, many universities have developed from undergraduate or even junior college education, and the core of counterpart support is teachers and disciplines. Western universities lack the environment and conditions to introduce high-level talents, so it is necessary to train a large number of talents who can lead the development of these universities after the implementation of the counterpart support policy, and carry out continuous rolling training to gradually form a relatively mature and stable discipline echelon; The construction and development of disciplines need a long-term accumulation process. Some disciplines closely combined with regional natural culture in western universities are very distinctive, but the level of disciplines is generally not high, and the scale cannot be formed and the level is relatively low. Through long-term support for colleges and universities, some disciplines are expected to become national key disciplines, which is inseparable from the continuity and stability of counterpart support policies.

Improve the supporting policies of recipient universities in western China? The Ministry of Education has made it clear that "preferential policies should be given to the implementation of counterpart support programs in education development, fund allocation, teaching and scientific research projects, discipline construction, talent training base construction, international exchanges and cooperation" and "relevant education administrative departments should provide policy support and convenient conditions for the implementation of counterpart support programs".

Counterpart support for colleges and universities in the western region is a systematic project, which requires a number of policies to get twice the result with half the effort. The Ministry of Education ensures that the tilt policy is in place in the key policy formulation related to the development of western universities, such as the "985 Project" construction, the "21Project" construction, the evaluation of national key disciplines and key laboratories, the evaluation of degree programs, and the establishment of scientific research projects. In addition, we should pay attention to the coordination of various policies.
