科技竞赛驱动下大学生创新能力培养研究——以地方综合性大学生命科学专业为例

Research on the Cultivation of College Students’ Innovation Ability Driven by Science and Technology Competitions—Taking Life Science Majors in Local Comprehensive Universities as an Example

摘要: 大学生创新能力培养是高校人才改革的核心方向。研究表明，科技竞赛并非孤立的课外活动，而是融合课程、科研、实践、团队与制度的综合育人机制。为提升研究的针对性，文章将研究范围聚焦于地方综合性大学生命科学专业，并以湖北大学生命科学学院相关育人实践作为案例化分析对象。文章基于既有研究，解析其提升创新能力的内在逻辑，指出当前实施中的问题，并提出课程体系重构、资源整合、项目化训练、师资优化及评价激励等优化路径。研究进一步将创新能力界定为问题识别、知识整合、实践设计、团队协作与反思转化等维度，并将其与“课程–科研–竞赛–转化”闭环机制相对应。研究强调，唯有将科技竞赛嵌入人才培养全过程，构建“课程–科研–竞赛–转化”闭环机制，方能同步提升学生的创新意识、实践能力与综合素养。

Abstract: Cultivating innovation in college students is central to talent development reform. Research indicates that technology competitions function not as mere extracurricular activities, but as integrated mechanisms linking curriculum, research, practice, and institutional support. To improve the specificity of the discussion, this paper focuses on life science majors in local comprehensive universities and takes the School of Life Sciences of Hubei University as a case for preliminary analysis. This study analyzes the underlying logic of these competitions, identifies current implementation challenges, and proposes key pathways: restructuring curricula, integrating resources, implementing project-based training, optimizing faculty, and refining incentives. It also defines innovation ability in terms of problem identification, knowledge integration, practical design, teamwork, and reflective transformation, and maps these dimensions onto the closed-loop framework of “curriculum, research, competition, and translation”. The paper concludes that embedding competitions throughout the talent development cycle-creating a “curriculum, research, competition, and translation” closed-loop framework-is essential for holistically enhancing students’ innovative capacity and practical competence.
