The level of graduate thesis in China is uneven. Why?
1. The influence of China's postgraduate enrollment expansion on postgraduate education. In the mid-1990s, graduate education ushered in a period of rapid development. With the expansion of graduate students' scale, there have been problems such as the decline of training quality and the shortage of educational resources. In the General Report on the Strategic Research of Degree and Postgraduate Education Development Planning in China, the position of postgraduate education is: "Degree and postgraduate education are the talent pool and intelligence pool of national development and progress", and "the emergence of top-notch innovative talents depends on the independent innovation of domestic degree and postgraduate education. High-quality degree and postgraduate education will provide the country with extensive intellectual support and a solid talent base, which is an important force to promote the development of advanced productive forces and advanced culture. " This research report points out that postgraduate education should be diversified in school-running level, school-running type, discipline direction and training objectives, doctoral students should still be the elite in elite education, and master students should cultivate scientific research and applied research talents according to needs.

However, there are some worrying problems in China's postgraduate education at present: the expansion of undergraduate and postgraduate enrollment has reduced the quality of students to varying degrees. After the enrollment expansion, the employment situation of undergraduates is even more pessimistic. Most students choose to take the postgraduate entrance examination, which leads to a decline in the quality of graduate students, mainly because of their poor professional knowledge base, poor hands-on ability and low level of thesis writing. The main purpose of their postgraduate entrance examination is to find a good job with high income, and their utilitarian psychology is very heavy. Studying under this premise leads them to not love their major very much, let alone strive for it. As far as schools are concerned, the expansion of enrollment has led to an increasing proportion of students and teachers. A tutor takes more than a dozen graduate students, and it is difficult for the tutor to give detailed guidance, which leads to the undergraduate study of graduate students. Moreover, modern graduate students have poor ability to withstand setbacks and failures and lack social practice.

2. The influence of graduate students' personal qualities and academic level differences on graduate education. The qualities of graduate students have a great influence on their personal characteristics. Mainly reflected in the following aspects: First, most of the current graduate students are only children, and their living conditions are relatively superior. They grew up under the care of their parents. Parents cultivate their talents and knowledge better than former graduate students. But at the same time, they also lack exercise in hard environment, can't bear hardships and stand hard work, lack team consciousness and have poor psychological endurance.

Graduate students who grow up in this environment are often ambitious, but they are too ambitious and full of expectations for the future. However, once this vision is shattered in reality, they may give up on themselves. Second, since 2000, China has implemented graduate enrollment expansion, and colleges and universities have also increased the enrollment scale of graduate students year by year. In modern society, due to the restriction of market supply and demand, it is increasingly difficult for college students to find jobs. After graduation, the employment situation is getting worse every year, which makes them have to accept the cruel employment situation. Four years' study in university is still far from our own vision. Many students choose to apply for graduate students and continue their studies, whether from escaping employment pressure or improving their own quality. In this context, postgraduate entrance examination has become a social hotspot, and the number of graduate students has increased year by year. With the expansion of graduate students, the difference of students is becoming more and more obvious. From the perspective of training methods, there are both public students and self-funded or entrusted students; From the perspective of academic qualifications, there are both undergraduate graduates, former students and junior college students who have participated in social work; Judging from the marital status, there are both unmarried young people and married people. This is bound to make the overall quality of students decline, and the quality and level are uneven.
