Ministry of Education and each college think highly of this work. Particularly ,it has obvious direction function to education and cultivation for doctor in the university and college. Nationwide Excellence Doctor's Theses also evolve as one of key factors that Faculty enlarge itself in all country. Each faculty in succession come on correlation measure, carry out actively the output of Nationwide Excellence Doctor's Theses, advance the quality of the culture of doctor. Each faculty does its best to get success in the choosing through public appraisal on Nationwide Excellence Doctor's Theses. In order to advance this work more availability, analyzing the result becomes more important. Through analyzing hundreds of excellence doctor's degree theses choose through public appraisal with the result in last 7 years, especially medicine theses, the conclusion brings forward suggestion and proposal. These may be more significance on advancing the quality of the culture of doctor, accelerating talent showing itself and establishing efficiency surveillance and excitation mechanism.MethodResearch on the result of 687 excellence doctor's degree theses choose through public appraisal from 1999 to 2005 by the method of Systematic sampling investigation. The Research Direction in 69 theses on medicine. The research include: excellence theses and school (famous degree) , doctor source quality, subject development and distribution, don academic reputation, academic achievement, emphases interdisciplinary relativity and the character of excellence theses.The research collects data by literature research, questionnaire, telephone interview and so on. We build the databases in computer. In order to make sure the quality, the data is double entered and logic checked. The data is analyzed by quantified analysis and quantitative analysis, include descriptive analysis and the qualitative indexes in constitution ratio is shown by statistics. The data on status of excellence these is deal by Benefit Analysis and Comparative Analysis.ResultsMost of 69 excellence medicine these come from key university or key Research Institute. Between 12 subject department, the front trinomen, hardly inferior to engineering course(254), science(202), medicine(96), but the gap between medicine and the top two is very large.The output of excellence theses is closely related with school (famous degree) , doctor source quality, subject development and distribution, don academic reputation, academic achievement. The more famous the school is, the more excellence theses are. The authors are mainly from key university. The higher famous professors, Academician professor, senior professor or "ChangJiang River" professor and so, are the important strength to produce excellence theses, especially Academician professor. Most of excellence theses are from state key subject. Excellence theses are from first class subject more than second class subject.The relativity very large between the doctor of medicine subject nationwide excellence theses and academic achievement, most authors of excellence theses can get better academic output(SCI, Science and Technology Encouragement, Patent, Monograph) between the second year of read for doctor period. Compare with excellence one and nonexcellenc one which are from same teacher, same subject and same year. The result show that value of nature is significant difference on quality and quantity. Most authors have published SCI paper, the authors of nonexcellence theses are opposition. The author of excellence theses has published 6 times SCI than the author of nonexcellence theses. Compare the quality of paper with citing ratio and IF. The excellence one gets high citing ratio and per citing ratio. The citing ratio is 10:1, the per citing ratio is 1.7:1. The excellence one also gets high IF and per IF. The ratio are 7.9:1 and 1.3:1.Excellence theses is higher academic value than nonexcellence one. Most SCI papers which authors are the excellence theses one have been cited, little SCI papers which author are the excellence theses one have not been cited, the ratio is 1.6:1. a very few SCI which author are the nonexcellence theses one have been cited, most SCI which author are the nonexcellence theses one have not been cited, the ratio is 0.09:1.The benefit analysis of the output of excellence theses have cited Cobb -Douglas Function: Q=AlalKa2. The result shows no matter how to change the elemental combination, the current of input-output of excellence doctor theses is descending. So scale expansion and increased investment can't effectively increase the quantity of excellence medical doctor theses. Different resource investments give the theses different infection. The most important element is the number of doctor tutor. Then the number of nation fund, the population of graduated doctor and research fund take the second place. The number of research project get little effective.The 69 excellence theses have a common: advancing front, challenge, innovation; the review include development, new harvest and literature enrichment; it has innovation in theory and method and get breakthroughs on some issue for the development of subject. Achievement and benefit are remarkable and get the top in china, maybe in the world. The theses is systemic, logic, level clarity, viewpoint brilliance, proficiency, regularize, emphasis and so. All show the research ability of the author.ConclusionThese may be more significance on advancing the quality of the culture ofdoctor, accelerating talent showing itself and establishing efficiency surveillance and encouraging innovation.In past year, the excellence medicine doctor theses were about 8-13 pieces when the number of excellence doctor theses was within 100 pieces. At present scale expansion and increased investment can't effectively increase the quantity of excellence medical doctor theses. The excellence theses are choose better in the best. So the only way to get more excellence doctor theses is increasing the quality of doctor theses.The recommend of the alternate excellence doctor theses must be considered its value of nature. For example, the number of SCI paper, IF of SCI paper and TimesCited are the most important factors. If the theses include these factors, it is possibility an excellence doctor theses.The output of excellence theses is closely related with school (famous degree) , doctor source quality, subject development and distribution, don academic reputation, academic achievement. The more famous the school is, the more excellence theses are. The authors are mainly from key university. The higher famous professors, Academician professor, senior professor or "ChangJiang River" professor and so, are the important strength to produce excellence theses, especially Academician professor. So the recommend of the alternate excellence doctor theses must be considered these correlation factors.Chinese traditional medicine and herbalist doctor are the national treasure. Even if the theses which are on this subject have high value, they also can't be recognized by international authorized SCI evaluation system. So the doctor of Traditional Chinese Medicine may get few SCI paper. It may cause these theses in disadvantage, when they are choose to be the recommend of the alternate excellence doctor theses except ministry of education build another system for the theses of Traditional Chinese Medicine. |
