Abstract:

In order to deepen scientific research in higher education, it is needed to pay attention to and discover major real-life problems, increase problem awareness, discover new problems, and study real problems. While attaching importance to the combination of theory and practice, enhancing the awareness of the transformation of scientific research results, and adhering to the problem-oriented approach, researchers should also value the guiding, supporting, and interpreting role of basic educational theories and the scientific application of research methods. In the practice of higher education, researchers should not only learn from the theories and experiences of developed countries in the West, but also have a deep understanding and grasping of China’s outstanding educational concepts, so as to build a historical and cultural foundation of higher education research. Besides, higher education research should make overall plans for the relationship between academic research and counseling advice, the relationship between discipline construction and talent training, and the relationship between school formation and international mutual learning, so as to promote the systematic study of socialist higher education with Chinese characteristics as a whole. In addition, higher education researchers should pay more attention to practical issues, study the overall problems and trends of higher education, and echo the practice of higher education with a broader research horizon and more diverse research methods. Finally, scientific research in higher education should serve morality education, serve the reform and development of higher education, and provide rational thinking and action basis for the cultivation of high-level specialized talents.

Key words: higher education, scientific research, realistic problems, theoretical system, morality education
