ABSTRACT

The progress of education is the fundamental driving force of national development. The healthy development of the higher education system is critical for a country, but the evaluation criteria of the higher education system are different in different countries. Without a rational measurement standard, it is difficult to objectively evaluate a nation's higher education system, which will bring difficulties and obstacles to mutual exchange and encouragement between higher education institutions. We will contract a suite of complete evaluation models to reduce this obstacle. In order to establish the evaluation system thoroughly, objectively, and comprehensively, we will establish the AHP higher education system health evaluation model and TOPSIS higher education system sustainability evaluation model. We use 6 representative countries and 15 important indexes to analyze and measure with the help of historical data and time forecast. Finally, we choose the American higher education system, which performs well under each evaluation system, and the Chinese higher education system, which should be improved in many aspects to make an emphatical analysis.
