Abstract

A national and regional levels of human capital have an important impact on the national and regional economic growth and industrial structure adjustment. This paper analyzes the influence of human capital on industrial structure adjustment with correlation data of Shanghai from 1978 to 2008. The result shows that human capital and industrial structure adjustment of Shanghai have a stable proportional relationship in a long term; in a short term, although the relationship between human capital and industrial structure adjustment is not as stable as that in a long term, the enhancement of human capital still does a great contribution to the adjustment of industrial structure. Based on this, some suggestions have been provided as following: to accelerate the value of human capital accumulation and structural optimization, to establish the strategic idea of upgrading the value of human capital in order to promote the upgrading of the industrial structure.
