Abstract
We investigated the consistency between engineering education in universities and corporate needs for such education, and found that there exist problems in current engineering education such as low-level participation by enterprises, decoupling of teaching and industry demands, and difficulties for enterprises to participate in teaching reforms. In response to these problems, we propose a practical ability training platform, which features “university-enterprises co-construction”. The platform adopts the method of “credit bidding” to improve the curriculum system that is combined with the enterprise teaching mechanism. Moreover, we establish the university-enterprises collaborative teaching management and operation guarantee mechanism. By the proposed engineering education method, the practical ability of students and the satisfaction of enterprises to graduates are greatly improved.
