Abstract: The Changjiang Scholars are outstanding representatives of high-level talents in universities. Their career trajectories have become the focus of multidisciplinary attention. In this study, the University of Changjiang Scholars 1998-2016 is chosen as the research subjects, and the CVs of 367 professors are selected and coded in depth. As the empirical results show, there are differences in the age, disciplines and geographical distribution of Changjiang Scholars' overall development trend; the Kaplan-Merrier results indicated that researchers with diversified educational background would be more quickly promoted as an associate professor or a professor, whereas the opposite results are discovered with single education background. Using Cox proportional hazard model, it reveals the age reduces the risk of survival of the associate professors and professors, and the scholars received study abroad spent less time becoming assistant professor. Furthermore, the postdoctoral experiencing has a negative effect on being associate professor. Finally, the theoretical and practical implications of this study are discussed.

摘要： 长江学者特聘教授是高校高层次人才的杰出代表，其成长规律已成为多学科关注的焦点问题。本研究以1998-2016年度高校长江学者特聘教授为研究对象，选取其中367名特聘教授的履历信息并对其进行深度编码，利用生存分析法动态考察其成长规律及影响因素。研究发现，长江学者特聘教授总体发展趋势上存在年龄、学科和地域分布差异特征；Kaplan-Meier分析表明，多样化教育背景下培养的人才进入副教授和教授阶段的风险率较高，意味着生存率较低，存活时间较短，可加快其职业晋升速度，而单一化教育背景的作用则相反；COX结果显示，年龄降低了副教授、教授阶段的生存风险并因而延缓职业成长，留学经历增加了副教授阶段的生存风险并进而提高了职业成长速度，博士后经历则降低了生存风险并因而减慢了职业成长速度。文章最后讨论了本研究的理论意义和实践启示。
