摘要:: 新型大学组织是在外部环境需求和内部资源推动共同作用下形成的区别于传统大学的知识创新系统。城市热衷于建立新型大学组织引发了“新型大学组织如何影响城市经济增长”的现实和理论问题。新发展格局背景下,新型大学组织的涌现具有系统演化的必然性,其与传统大学的关键区别在于创新性、应用性和开放性,对城市经济增长的影响呈现为创新驱动、创业孵化、开放交流的核心作用和人才聚集、产业升级、持续发展的延伸作用。基于PSM-渐进DID方法以中国东部86个城市为样本论证了新型大学组织对于城市经济增长具有正向的长期作用。合成控制法对青岛、中山、泉州的个体反事实分析同样印证了该实证结论。

Abstract:: New type university organizations (NTUO) are knowledge innovation systems that differ from traditional universities, formed by the combined impetus of external environmental demands and internal resource promotion. The enthusiasm of cities to establish NTUO has raised the practical and theoretical question of “how do NTUO affect urban economic growth?” In the context of the new development pattern, the emergence of NTUO is inevitable in systematic evolution. Their key differences from traditional universities lie in innovation, applicability, and openness, and their impacts on urban economic growth are manifested as core effects (innovation-driven, entrepreneurial incubation, and open exchange) and extended effects (talent aggregation, industrial upgrading, and sustainable development). Using the PSM-Gradual DID method with a sample of 86 cities in eastern China, this paper demonstrates that NTUO have a positive long-term effect on urban economic growth. Counterfactual analyses of Qingdao, Zhongshan, and Quanzhou using the synthetic control method further confirm this empirical conclusion.
