Exploration on Rail Transit General Course Education Under New Engineering Scien-ce Strategy

With the development of science and technology, the integration of various professional knowledge is deepening, and the demand for wide-caliber knowledge is becoming more and more evident. To meet the demands raised from the developing tendency, higher education in China begins to explore the construction of engineering science general education. The existing problems in the engineering science general education in Chinese universities are analyzed, taking into consideration of the rail transit general education and the abstract and profession-popularizing features of engineering science general courses. Four aspects are put forward for exploration and adaptation to meet the needs of new engineering science education development: combing teaching objectives, optimizing curriculum content, diversifying teaching methods and strengthening the training of teachers.
