China's Ministry of Education has released a set of trial regulations on the setting of majors in vocational schools at the undergraduate level, requiring the establishment of early warning and dynamic adjustment mechanisms.
The regulations specify the requirements, procedures and supervision for setting up such majors.
Improvements and adjustments to the layout and structure of majors should be based primarily on enrollment evaluation, school operations, employment and per-student funding.
Majors that face insufficient resources, inferior quality of education and low employment rates should reduce or even suspend enrollment accordingly, it said.
