Abstract The schoolrunning characteristics and capacity of a university is largely determined by its disciplinary construction. However, at the stage of their extensive development, almost all the local universities attach too much importance to including different disciplines and have been after the same thing—“large scale, comprehensiveness and academic pursuit”, resulting in the unclear orientation of their disciplinary construction and lack of local distinctive features. In order to make a shift from extensive development to connotative development, the local universities should get rid of such dilemmas as being academic or applied, national or local and comprehensive or distinctive. Therefore, they should stick to future orientation, locality and distinctiveness, try to get some things done and leave others undone, and construct disciplines and specialties in a unified manner. In terms of scientific research and social service, they should lay emphasis on the important issues, push forward the whole undertaking, integrate all their advantages and create their distinctive features by taking into consideration both their own achievements and the demands of social development.
