China's on-campus postgraduates exceed one million and more than one million students have received doctorate and masters degrees. The quality of postgraduate education had been recognized by the international community, she said.
Postgraduate education should be more comprehensive and coordinated and raise the quality of talents both in knowledge and morality, Chen told a meeting held by the Degree Committee under the State Council.
Students should be given more training in detecting, analyzing and solving problems rather than learning theories, said Chen, calling for the establishment of an effective quality monitoring system for postgraduate education.
She called for better training for supervisors, saying their sense of responsibility should be raised.
Examples of high-quality postgraduate education should be set for all higher education institutes and the setting of postgraduate courses need optimizing, she added.
