Building practical talents training mode through college-enterprise co-operation in a mechanical major

With the rapid development of the economy, industry using machinery also has been developing rapidly. The level of mechanisation not only affects the quality of people's lives, but also symbolises the strength of a nation. Countries such as Germany and the United States of America are powerful in mechanisation, and their training of mechanical engineers is so fully developed that they provide a large supply of talent for the country's manufacturing industry. It is a key issue for most developing countries: that they build a training mode of practical talent in mechanical engineering majors based on their own national conditions. Based on years of exploration and practice, the authors here propose a hierarchical personnel training approach, and put forward several important measures to ensure the training runs smoothly. © 2014 WIETE.
