ABSTRACT
With China’s development of industrialization and the increasingly fierce competition from international community, whether we can cultivate a batch of high-quality multi-level engineering technological personnel so as to make new major contribution to the development of China and the progress of engineering technologies in the world has become the key to improving China’s industrial competence and enhancing its overall national strength, which is also the historical responsibility of engineering education(EE) in universities and colleges in China.
The author introduces the current situation of EE in China and identifies the major shortcomings of EE in China, e.g. ineffective talent cultivation system, lack of practical engineering experience, inadequate connection with industry, etc. Through the case study of Tsinghua University, the author explores the methods to solve the above mentioned problems and improve the development of EE in China through international cooperation and learning from international experience.
Keywords: Engineering education, International cooperation.
