CHINA: Phd quantity surpasses quality
# 08, August 2010
With a rapid increase in the number of Chinese graduates enrolling in PhD programmes in the past decade, it seems the quality of education doctoral students receive is falling short, writes He Dan for the official agency Xinhua.China replaced the United States to become the world's top producer of doctorate holders in 2008, according to an Asia Times report. However, about 70% of employers complain that employees who hold PhDs show little innovation in their work, according to a recent survey.
The survey, which interviewed 1,392 PhD candidates, degree holders, professors and employers, found several flaws in postgraduate education, especially PhD programmes, in the country.
