Abstract:
Objective:To analyze the results of anonymous review and influencing factors of master's degree theses in Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) from 2018 to 2023, and provide a reference for improving the quality of graduate education.Methods:Using the anonymous review data of 766 master's degree theses submitted by CDC from 2018 to 2023, a statistical analysis was performed on the overall evaluation and four evaluation indicators using the Excel and SPSS 27.0. Potential factors influencing thesis quality were also explored.Results:The overall evaluation scores of the 766 master's degree theses submitted by CDC from 2018 to 2023 were generally rated as "good", with a mean score of (16.58±1.95). The mean scores of the four indicators were all rated as "good" and above. The scores were in the order of thesis topics (17.32±1.81), basic knowledge and research ability (16.51±2.10), innovation and thesis value (16.21±1.96), and thesis standardization (16.08±2.20). The overall evaluation score of students recommended and exempted from entrance exams (17.14±1.54) was higher than that of students admitted through national entrance exams (16.54±1.96). Specifically, significant differences were observed in basic knowledge and research ability and thesis standardization ( P<0.05). The overall evaluation score of academic degree theses (16.81±1.88) was higher than professional degree theses (16.32±1.99). The overall evaluation score of degree theses on basic research (16.99±1.86) was significantly higher than that of theses on applied research (16.33±1.96) and comprehensive research (16.27±1.91) ( P<0.05). The overall evaluation score of theses supported by national funds (17.01±1.77) was significantly higher than that of theses funded by provincial and ministerial projects (16.67±1.96) and other projects (16.18±1.99) ( P<0.05). Conclusions:During 2018-2023, the overall evaluation scores of master's degree theses of CDC were generally rated as "good". The quality of theses and graduate education can be enhanced by improving the quality of sources of students, expanding basic research, applying for high-level fund projects, and establishing effective process management mechanism.
