The study takes a qualitative approach by collecting research data through personal interviews with twenty-six educational leaders from fifteen top research universities in China. The data of the study were analyzed by examining the common codes and emerging themes from the interview data to generate the answers to the research questions. The findings ofthe study indicated that the university leaders perceived the rapid development of technology offering great opportunities for the university governance reform. As part of the governance reform effort, programs of different disciplines need to seriously considerfor integration in sharing a big dataset. In the technological development era, the university leaders also urged for practically implementing the authority decentralization policy and the close collaboration between administrative and academic staffs. Recommendations are offered by the researchers to foster university governance reforms in the Internet Plus Era.  \nINTRODUCTION  \n“Internet Plus” is a concept first brought up in the Chinese Government Work Report of March, 2015. The Chinese Government made it as a proposal to promote the integration of Internet technology with traditional businesses and industries with the support and encouragement of the Chinese Government. The purpose was to take full advantage of the rapid technology development to booster the growth of businesses and industries to catchup with the world standard. This technological movement as described by the Chinese Government as the “Internet Plus Era” has swept through all levels of higher education in China. With the rapid development and in-depth application of social informatization, internationalization of higher education and organization networking in the Internet Plus Era, profound changes have taken place in higher education in the management and organization of discipline construction, personnel training and scientific research innovation. As a result, industries, universities and research units have worked together collaboratively to educate high caliber talents to meet the social needs. Some universities have started to usher in a new stage of colleges and departments governance to promote the integration of disciplines (Allen & Mintrom, 2010; Birnbaum, & Edelson, 1989) . In recent years, Chinese universities have taken the initiative to adapt to the changes in internal and external situations and actively promoted the reform and innovation of colleges and departments governance to meet the challenges ofthe Internet Plus Era (Xiao, 2017) . Centering on the reform measures of “promoting the decentralization of authorities in university governance” and “pluralistic and co-governance”, many universities in China have experienced some initial success while at the same time faced many difficulties and challenges (King, 2013; Xiao, 2017) . Therefore, China’s high-level research universities have taken the lead in the reform of their governance systems particularly at the college and the department levels. This study is intended to investigate the practices of college and department governance reforms in China’s first-class universities, the challenges facing them and their ways of overcoming the difficulties in an Internet Plus Era.  \nEducational Planning | Spring 2023 9 Vol. 30, No. 2  \nREVIEW OF LITERATURE  \nGovernance and Stakeholders of Chinese Universities  \nYuan (2012) declared that the charters and the rules of Chinese universities need to be straightly followed and supported by establishing an effective governance system.
