Research Into Management Mechanism and Operation of Off-Campus Practice Bases in High-Standard Characteristic Campus

Abstract

Off-campus practice base is a guarantee to promote education and teaching reforms and quality of school running and admission rate. After several rounds of integration over 14 years, Sichuan Animal Husbandry and Veterinary Medicine, predecessor of Southwest University Rongchang Campus, has been built into a high-standard campus with its own characteristic. With great attention paid to the establishment of off-campus practice bases, it has built more than 30 practice bases for its students. Against the backdrop, this paper puts forward a “six-combination” management mechanism, including the combination of campus and off-campus practice bases, the combination of campus, functional departments (like the educational administration department) and colleges, the combination of production and operation management of off-campus practice bases and campus teaching and scientific research, the combination of campus student entrepreneurship and off-campus practice bases, the combination of teaching simulation and off-campus practice bases, and the combination of campus majors or research directions and demands of off-campus practice bases. It is found that the operation of the “six-combination” management mechanism could achieve remarkable results, including vigorously guaranteeing the continuous and steady improving of talent training quality.
