Abstract

According to the relevant requirements of the Ministry of education to expand the cultivation categories of professional degree graduate students, China's professional degree graduate education will have a good chance to develop fast. It is expected that by 2025, the enrollment of professional master's degree students will account for two-thirds of the enrollment of master's degree students, which will become an important component of graduate education. With the development of professional degree postgraduate education, the allocation of its education scale and structure has gradually become the focus of attention of relevant scholars in China and abroad. Therefore, in order to discuss the relationship between the cultivation of professional degree postgraduates and the needs of China's economic and social development, taking Shandong province, which is a big agricultural and manufacturing province in china, as an example, this paper analyzes the current situation of the scale and structure of professional postgraduates' education in Shandong province, using the gray correlation method to evaluate the relationship between the higher discipline structure, educational hierarchy, and industrial structure of professional degree postgraduates. It also explained the problem that the professional degree graduate education in Shandong province does not match the local economic development in the process of industrial transformation, and proposed measures to optimize the scale and structure of professional degree graduate education in Shandong province from the aspects of expanding the scale of professional degree education, optimizing the discipline structure of professional degree, building a diversified training system, and realizing the path of symbiotic development, and provide relevant policies and suggestions to promote local economic and social development.
