University science and technology evaluation is the core content of college science and technology activities and university scientific research management work. It plays an increasingly important role in national and local science and technology innovation. This paper comprehensively reviews and summarizes the research and development status of science and technology evaluation in Chinese universities. The study finds that the research on evaluation of science and technology in universities has achieved rapid development in the past 30 years. The main existing problems are that, theoretical research from the perspective of the discipline is limited to fewer subject areas, and research works are scarce; the science and technology evaluation system and the management mechanism are not perfect, the evaluation method is not scientific, and the evaluation subject is relatively simple. Based on this, this article proposes to expand the breadth and depth of science and technology evaluation research in universities, improve the science and technology evaluation management system of universities, and improve the evaluation system and methods of science and technology in universities, so as to effectively promote the scientific development of science and technology evaluation in China.
