Discussion on Impetus Mechanism Model of Sustainable Development of Private Universities Based on the Entropy Theory

The paper analyzes the sustainable development mechanism of Private Universities from the philosophical level using the entropy theory. Through the analysis on the internal and external forces of sustainable development, the paper builds the impetus mechanism model of sustainable development of Private Universities. Private Higher Education Practice has proved that Private Universities play an irreplaceable role in increasing education services varieties, promoting education fair, expanding education resources and building a learning society in which people pursue life-long education. "Long-term Education Reform and Development Plan (2010-2020)" clearly stated, "Non-government funded education is an important growth point of the development of educational business and an important force of promoting educational reform, It's an important job for governments at all levels to develop Private funded education." However, at present, Private higher education in our country is developing into the sluggish, struggling "plateau" after a rapid development, there being some "symptoms", like a sharp decline of students, the increasing financial constraints and slowly lifting of social reputation. Also, according to the results of field research and surveys, the current capacity of sustainable development of Private universities is not optimistic. With the contrast between theory and practice and the contradiction between educational level and social demand being increasingly emerging, the sustainable development of Private universities becomes a concern of the academia. The paper, based on entropy theory, analyses the impact which internal and external environments have on the sustainable development of Private universities from the perspective of philosophy, and builds the impetus mechanism model for the sustainable development of Private universities to solve and provide reference for the sustainable development of Private universities.
