Digitalization of scientific research management is of great significance for the scientific decision-making and modernization of governance capabilities in scientific research. Vocational colleges have generally established research management information systems, but the coverage of informatization is incomplete, data sharing with other information systems is poor, and digital applications are limited. The main reason is that the concept of digitalization in scientific research management is lagging behind, the basic digital work is not solid, and there is a shortage of digital professional and technical personnel. We should change our mindset and establish a digital approach to scientific research management; Consolidate the digital foundation of scientific research management; Improve the scientific research management system module and online business processes; Promote data sharing with other information systems; Building a decision support system; Improve the digital literacy and ability of scientific research management personnel.
