China has made remarkable achievements in economic development in the past.However,with the decelerated economic growth in recent years,China's economy has been transitioning from a phase of rapid growth to a stage of high-quality development,how to keep a sound and stable growth in economy nowadays is an urgent issue.Since the 1978 economic reform,China's economy has grow rapidly,human capital is considered to be an important driving force for the “China economic miracle”.As the main production factor,human capital is an important driving force and source of technological innovation and sustainable economic growth.It has been widely recognized that human capital has effect on economic growth and social development.The process of economic development in a country is not only the growth process of the economic aggregate,but also the evolution process of the industrial structure.The accumulation of human capital can improve the efficiency of factor production,accelerate the pace of independent innovation,promote technological progress,and promote the upgrading of industrial structure.Human capital accumulation and industrial structure upgrading are of paramount importance to change economic developing mode and improve the quality of economic development.Under the circumstances,this thesis is targeted on the dynamic relationship between human capital and industrial structure.According to matching theory and synergy theory,it has established the index system of human capital and industrial structure,built matching degree model,measured the matching degree between the human capital and industrial structure of all provinces from 2006 to 2016 and analyzed the regional and provincial levels from various aspects.On this basis,I use the provincial panel data,and the static panel model,to analyse the impact of the matching degree between human capital and industrial structure on regional economic growth.some conclusions are as following:First,matching degree calculation results show that from 2006 to 2016,overall situation in three regions is poor and there are some differences between the three regions.From the average matching degree of view,central and western regions are at preliminary matching stage while eastern regions are at barely matching stage.The matching degree in the central region is slightly higher than the western region,and the western region is slightly higher than the eastern region,which indicates that matching degree varies in regions between human capital and industrial structure.There is not a positive correlation between the degree of economic development and matching degree.Secondly,static panel data mode make it clear that matching degree between human capital and industrial structure has an obstructive effect on the economy in central and western regions,and has a limited effect on the economy in eastern region.The reason for this may be that the human capital structure and industrial structure is not coordinated development,the coordinated development of the three industries is the basis of the sustained and healthy economy development.Based on the above analysis,the author proposes following suggestions: th e government should strengthen the reserve of human resources in the region a nd effectively give play to the advantages of talents;industrial policy-making s hould be adjusted according to regional conditions;improve matching degree b etween human capital and industrial structure in order to promote regional econo my coordination development;push the development of urbanization level and a ccelerate development of infrastructure.
