Abstract

Innovative talent is an important driving force for China's economic development and social progress. To cultivate postgraduate students with strong innovation and practical abilities who meet the needs of the times, this study explores the theoretical background of talent demands in Hainan's Free Trade Port, in conjunction with the current situation of postgraduate education and training in Hainan universities. First, this study explains the necessity of the OBE educational concept for cultivating the innovation and practical abilities of postgraduate students in universities. Secondly, it clarifies the current state and challenges of cultivating innovation and practical abilities among postgraduate students in Hainan's universities. Finally, based on the OBE concept, this study explores the paths to enhance the innovative and practical abilities of postgraduate students in Hainan universities. This includes constructing a curriculum system oriented towards practical innovation with postgraduate students as the main body, building a chain of practice innovation ability cultivation with full participation from universities, enterprises, and social management, and establishing a collaborative platform for cultivating the innovative and practical abilities of postgraduate students. Additionally, relevant rationalization suggestions are provided.
