随着我国高等教育规模的快速扩充,如何提升大学教育质量已成为当前高等教育改革中的一个重点问题。近年来，国内一些高校陆续实施了学院制改革，将其作为提高本科教学质量的有效途径。在此背景之下，深入研究国外学院制的发展历史，探究其优秀的教育理念和办学经验，对于我国高校学院制改革的顺利推进以及构建适合我国国情的大学学院制都具有一定的意义。英国古典大学，即牛津和剑桥大学的学院制不仅具有悠久的发展历史，而且直至今日仍相当完整地保留了学院制源自中世纪的很多特点，是欧洲大学学院制传统的一个典型代表。牛津、剑桥的学院制与其住宿制、导师制共同构成其学院制传统的核心内容，也是两校一流本科教学质量得以保障的关键所在。本文以牛津、剑桥大学学院制的形成和发展为研究对象，在对其进行历史追溯和梳理的基础之上，探究这两所古典大学中学院制发展的轨迹及影响因素，试图为我国高校的学院制改革提供有益的启示和借鉴。论文包括导言、主体四章及结语。第一部分为导言。主要介绍本研究课题的缘起、相关核心概念、国内外相关研究成果以及研究思路。第二部分是研究的主体部分，包括第一章至第四章。研究以牛津、剑桥大学学院制的产生及发展历史为线索，分三个阶段对其展开系统论述。第一章为英国古典大学学院制的形成。论述了英国早期学院的产生、古典大学学院制确立的过程以及早期学院制的主要特点。第二章论述英国古典大学学院制的重建。研究从19世纪英国新大学形成以及新大学观与牛津、剑桥传统大学观念的冲突入手，论述这一时期牛津、剑桥学院制在各方面的重大变革，关注了19世纪后半期学院现代导师制的建立过程。第三章对20世纪以来英国古典大学学院制的发展与变革展开研究。论文从20世纪英国高等教育大众化、大学经济基础多元化以及现代科学在大学的迅猛发展入手，分析这一时期牛津、剑桥大学对古老学院制的传承与创新，并对未来学院制在两所大学的发展进行了分析。第四章对英国古典大学学院制的特点进行了较为系统的论述。研究从制度层面和理念层面两个角度分析牛津、剑桥学院制的特点,重点关注其学院制在提升大学本科教育质量方面的核心价值。论文的最后一部分是结语。在对英国古典大学学院制的形成和发展历程进行历史梳理的基础之上，论文在结语中试图对牛津、剑桥大学学院制发展的文化影响因素展开分析，以期更深入地理解其历史发展中的规律性。同时，结语部分还对英国古典大学学院制的教育价值以及对世界高等教育发展所产生的影响展开分析。
