Abstract

Actively promoting the construction of professional groups is an important means to optimize the professional structure of local applied undergraduate colleges and improve the effectiveness of education. This study aims to explore the theoretical foundations and practical pathways of constructing professional clusters in local applied undergraduate institutions, with a particular focus on how the construction of professional clusters can improve the quality of talent cultivation in colleges and meet the demand for applied talents in society. Exploring the theoretical basis and principles of organization for the construction of professional clusters in application-oriented undergraduate colleges, analyzing various practical problems in the process of professional cluster construction, proposing solutions and construction paths, can provide decision-making basis for the reform and development of professional settings in local universities. Thus promoting the integration of local universities into the overall development of regional industrial clusters, activating the endogenous driving force for sustainable development of applied undergraduate universities, and further improving the quality of talent cultivation.
