摘要
作为人参与其中的生命系统,现代大学是一个典型的复杂系统。复杂性是一种认识大学组织的新的思维方式。在大众化、市场化、数字化、全球化和知识经济等多重因素的挤压下,现代大学模式正面临颠覆性的变革。如果说现代大学的组织模式是复杂性之简单化的产物,那么,未来大学的组织模式需要回归复杂性,从整体上将大学视为一个组织及环境构成的开放系统。建构未来大学的关键是寻找大学的最小封闭单位。根据最小封闭单位的不同,未来大学有两种主要的建构模式:一是以专业为最小封闭系统的大学(如斯科尔科沃大学);二是以课程为最小封闭系统的大学(如密涅瓦大学)。
Modern universities constitute a typical complex system while complexity is a new way of thinking for university organization modes. Under the extrusion of multiple factors such as massification, marketization, digitization, globalization and knowledge economy, modern universities are facing a subversive change. If the organization mode of modern universities is the product of simplicity, then the organization mode of future universities needs to return to complexity. And these universities would be regarded as an open system of organizations and environments. The key to building out- standing future universities is to find the minimum closed units of universities. According to different minimum closed units, there are mainly two building modes, one is to build a university which regards profession as its smallest closed system （Skolkovo Tech） while the other one is to build a university which regards curriculum as its smallest closed system （Minerva University）.
