As a core production factor in the digital economy era, data elements are reshaping higher education governance systems through technological integration and institutional innovation. This study systematically analyzes the underlying logic of data-driven transformation in higher education governance, revealing practical challenges such as data silos, talent competency gaps, and rigid institutional efficiency. To address these issues, it proposes establishing a "data platform + scenario-based application" governance framework and enhancing institutional safeguards encompassing "governance architecture + security ethics + incentive mechanisms". Furthermore, building a talent pool combining "specialized teams + faculty-student collaboration" is essential for ensuring the sustainable advancement of data-driven governance reforms in higher education.
