Quality management is one of the factors determining the running level of a university, so it is necessary to evaluate university management scientifically and comprehensively. In this paper, a university management evaluation index system is constructed and optimized with reference to the multi-factor decision tree technology, and the cause degree and centrality degree are calculated through the DEMATEL method model, the causality diagram is established, and the ISM hierarchical structure analysis is subsequently carried out. The management influences with high centrality degree are service ability, student quality, employment, school size and presidential leadership. Through the results of the reachable matrix, four levels of college management influencing factors are divided, and it is found that the fundamental factors affecting the management level of colleges and universities are concentrated in the socio-economic and cultural level, the deeper factors are mainly the school’s own scale, funds and teachers and students, and the leadership quality and service ability are the superficial factors. Therefore, the improvement of university management evaluation system can be carried out with reference to the above levels and indicators.
