Abstract

In the context of China’s higher education reform, integrating grassroots Party building with ideological and political education (IPE) has become a critical approach to cultivating socialist builders and successors. This study explores the theoretical basis, current challenges, and practical paths for collaborative education between these two domains. By analyzing their complementary roles—Party building providing organizational leadership and IPE offering value guidance—the paper proposes a mechanism framework emphasizing goal alignment, resource integration, platform synergy, and evaluation optimization. Case studies from Chinese universities demonstrate that effective collaboration can enhance educational effectiveness, strengthen students’ ideological identity, and advance the modernization of university governance. The findings provide theoretical support and practical references for promoting high-quality development in university ideological and political work.
