This study analyzes the current situation and problems of managing institution status in university, which based on investigating the institution settings of 20 domestic colleges affiliated to the Ministry of Education. Studies have shown that the number of university management mechanism is much higher than that of College at present. The more number of College, the more number of the corresponding management organization, what illustrates that the teaching and scientific research institutions rely on management mechanism, At the same time, it also shows that colleges pay more attention to “non-productive” than “production”, pay more attention to administration than academic. Besides, there are no correlations between the numbers of management organizations and school leaders, full-time teachers and administrative staffs. The above study indicates the lack of unified standard configuration of school leaders, and the main purpose of current college management mechanism setting is not to serve school teachers and staff, as well as the establishment of management structures lacks of scientificity and rationality.
