On the reform of contents and methods of higher education. As we all know, science and technology are changing with each passing day, knowledge is increasing rapidly, industry changes and mergers are accelerating, international economic and cultural cooperation and exchanges are increasing, and so on. All these have had a great impact on the traditional training objectives and methods, and caused a comprehensive review and reform within education. ?

The traditional concept of "one-time education" has been shaken once and for all, and the concept of "lifelong education" is in the ascendant. However, the rise of lifelong education has not reduced the burden of university education, but put forward higher requirements for university education. University education should not only prepare students for employment after graduation, but also lay a foundation for their future improvement.

The dual functions of university education have led to the new trend of international higher education reform. In recent years, Soviet universities, which are in charge of training experts, tend to increase elective courses and broaden their knowledge, while American universities, which aim at cultivating generalists, begin to increase compulsory courses and attach importance to the cultivation of professional skills. The loosening of these two "opposing" university education models indicates the "identity" trend of general education and specialist education in universities around the world.

Higher education in New China has always been a junior college education. Guided by the reform direction of "facing modernization, facing the world and facing the future" and following the historical development track, it is natural to draw the conclusion that the education of China University should cultivate professionals with broad foundation to meet the dual needs of future employment and improvement. As for the training objectives and specifications of all levels and disciplines, it goes without saying that we should focus on them. Undergraduate education can be more "general" and specialist education can be more "specialized"; Science professionals can be more "proficient" and applied technology talents can be more "specialized".

In the past, the major setting of colleges and universities in China was mainly based on industrial departments and their products, with too fine division of majors, narrow knowledge of students and poor adaptability. In recent years, China has begun to adjust the division and setting of majors, and is planning to further merge recently.
