Abstract

Cultivating top-notch innovative talents and promoting China's social progress require attention to the distribution of higher education opportunities. Therefore, the distribution of higher education opportunities has important research value for the development of education in China in the 21st century. Through literature survey, this study finds that the current distribution of higher education opportunities in terms of regional differences has problems with the entrance examination system, educational resources allocation, differences in the teaching force, educational policy input, and inequitable access to higher education due to differences in educational information technology. And accordingly, five recommendations are proposed: to add diversified subjects, to carry out diversified admission methods according to the characteristics of the west, to increase the investment in the allocation of educational resources in the west, to increase the capacity and improve the quality of the teaching force in the west, to enhance policy support and financial investment, and to strengthen infrastructure construction and promote information sharing of educational resources.
