交叉学科英文课程Materials的教学改革与实践——以车辆工程中英班为例

Teaching Reform and Practice of the Interdisciplinary English Course “Materials”—A Case Study of the Sino-British Joint Program in Vehicle Engineering

摘要: 针对中外合作办学车辆工程专业Materials课程知识传授与能力培养脱节的问题，本文介绍了该课程的教学改革实践。改革以T型人才模型为框架，在保持材料科学理论深度的同时，引入车辆工程应用与商业分析内容，形成“理论–应用–综合”三阶递进的教学结构，并配套多元评价体系。实践表明，改革后学生的跨学科思维和工程分析能力均有提升，可为应用型本科院校材料类课程改革提供借鉴。

Abstract: Addressing the disconnect between knowledge delivery and competency development in the “Materials” course within the Sino-foreign cooperative Vehicle Engineering program, this paper outlines the teaching reform practices implemented for the course. Grounded in the “T-shaped talent” model, the reform integrates content on vehicle engineering applications and business analysis while maintaining the theoretical depth of materials science. This establishes a three-stage progressive teaching structure—“theory, application, and synthesis”—complemented by a diversified assessment system. Practical results demonstrate that the reform has enhanced students’ interdisciplinary thinking and engineering analysis capabilities, offering a valuable reference for curriculum reform in materials-related courses at applied undergraduate institutions.
