Abstract

Hunan University is a typical university in China with an open university campus, and every change in its development history provides an important reference basis for campus management and planning in Chinese universities. Based on the existing literature, this paper examines the historical planning of Hunan University, systematizes the planning structure and core concepts of the university, and discusses the issues based on the current situation investigation. This paper chooses to start from the chronological order of Hunan University's planning, and conducts a comparative study of the differences between the traditional "heterogeneous isomorphism" and the new situation, including the deficiencies of the university's environment and management, and the concept of heterogeneous isomorphism in the diversified environment. Moreover, correspondingly shallow suggestions are made for its shortcomings. The evolutionary model of special campuses and the problems arising from diversification are sorted out, which can provide reference and guidance for the future construction of open universities in China.
