Abstract: From 2019 to 2023,the Ministry of Education approved 35 schools to pilot undergraduate vocational education. Currently,the construction of vocational undergraduate programs is in its early stages of exploration. Journals serve as a window for vocational undergraduate universities to engage with external exchanges,and their development is closely related to the vocational undergraduate universities they rely on. Through examining the journal’s publication practices,it is found that compared to the rapid development of vocational undergraduate universities,the development of journals in higher vocational colleges lags behind. In order to enhance their academic competitiveness and international influence,a feasible path is proposed to optimize the coordinated development of vocational undergraduate universities and their journals.

Key words: vocational undergraduate construction, vocational journals, collaborative development
