Abstract: The development of private colleges and universities affects structural reform and changes the trend of higher education. To study the running level of private colleges and universities, an empirical study must be conducted. First, statistical information from 23 Shandong Province private colleges and universities was collected, and an index system of education level with six primary indicators and 13 secondary indicators was constructed. The index data were standardized through a statistical analysis software. Analytical hierarchy process was adopted to determine the weight of the evaluation index and test the consistency of the judgment matrix. A fuzzy comprehensive evaluation model was established, and the building evaluation set was improved. After confirming the membership matrix of the fuzzy relation, multi-index comprehensive evaluation and comprehensive ranking of private higher education level in Shandong Province were carried out. The improved traditional fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method can be used in evaluating the performance of private colleges and analyze scientific rankings. Results of this work have high theoretical significance and application value.
