In the context of the popularization of higher education in the new era of socialism with Chinese characteristics, private colleges and universities must strengthen their scientific research work in an all-round way in order to achieve connotative development, which is related to the core competitiveness of schools, the comprehensive strength of schools and the quality of personnel training. However, the survey found that private colleges and universities in the state policy support and funding, scientific research positioning and purpose, teachers’ scientific research awareness and enthusiasm, scientific research team building and self-innovation and other aspects of the problems and shortcomings. Accordingly, the paper puts forward the strategies to improve the scientific research ability of private colleges and universities: the government should improve the policy of supporting the development of scientific research, the top-level scientific design of private colleges and universities should steadily promote scientific research work, improve the incentive policy of scientific research, clear the main direction of research, set up scientific research innovation team, build scientific research cooperation platform and improve the security system.
