Graduate Education in China has been developing fast since a series of graduate student cultivation policies appeared publicly one after the other, including Regulations of Degrees of People's Republic of China, Notification of Improving and Strengthening Graduate Students Affairs, Notification of Reinforcing Engineering Graduate Students Cultivation, and Ideas of Improving and Strengthening Further Work of Graduate Students. With increasing enrollment policy of graduate students actualized, the quantity of graduate students mushroom in recent years. Because of the lag of the total incensement of education resources and the low efficiency of the resources use in higher education, the quality of engineering graduate students relatively decline. Under this situation, how to improve the efficiency of resources to cultivate engineering graduate students, and how to balance the increment of resources and the efficiency is an urgent question to be solved. That is why doing this research possesses its theoretical and practical value.Based on the problems existed in engineering graduate cultivation resource, the paper collected data of cultivation resources from 27 different engineering universities, random interviews the relevant staff from 6 of these universities, and then analyses the main problems of cultivating resource allocation in engineering graduate education. The problems are: unreasonable structure of graduate student source caused quality decline of graduate student source; inadequate resource of teaching staff resulted in quality decline of teaching; inadequate scientific research funding affected talents cultivation; laboratory resource allocation model hindered laboratory efficiency; and curricula development and use are lack of rationality. The main reasons are: disproportion between national scientific research investment allocation and status of graduate student cultivation; lack of thinking of cultivation resources in higher education administration and universities; and imperfectness of the system in graduate cultivation resource allocation.Based on relevant theory from pedagogy, economics and statistics, value orientation and basic principles of recombination of engineering graduate student cultivation resources are analyzed. After the analysis of structure of resource elements and assistance from Malmquist index, a logistic model is constructed to evaluate efficiency of engineering graduate student cultivation resources. And then, some suggestions are put forward: strengthening the links of government and the market to increase resources; constructing a comprehensive science and technology platform to optimize efficiency of engineering graduate student cultivation resources; utilizing elements of engineering graduate student cultivation resources reasonably to improve the efficiency; exerting benefits outside graduate education to coordinate resources of "production, study and research"; and optimizing institutional resource of graduate cultivation to ensure recombination of cultivation resources.The originality of research is that history of engineering graduate student cultivation allocation system of China is combed; concepts of engineering graduate student cultivation resource recombination are defined; particularity of engineering graduate student cultivation is analyzed; logistic model to evaluate the efficiency of engineering graduate student cultivation resources, and strategic measures to optimize engineering graduate cultivation are clear-cut.
