This not only can realize reorganization and improvement of the military educational resources so that improve the quality and the scale of institutions obviously, but also be conducive to personnel training, scientific communication, knowledge innovation, and combat effectiveness. Because of different educational philosophy, it will lead to the differences among the organizational culture accumulated, selected and cohesive in the long-term teaching and management activities. The collision, conflict and integration will inevitably occur in the merger process. As an unavoidable problem, it is also an important factor for the smooth operation of institutions after the merger. This paper studied three types of cultural conflict arising from the merger model, and analyzed their roots. On the basis of it, three stages of cultural construction and innovation were put forward including prewarning of cultural conflict, the adaptation and identification of heterogeneous culture and cultural integration.
