Abstract

With the introduction of the "New Engineering Education" and the implementation of national strategies such as "Made in China 2025", universities are facing the urgent task of cultivating interdisciplinary and innovative engineering talents. This paper, using the Automation Program at Tianjin University of Commerce as a case study, analyzes the current challenges in undergraduate engineering education, such as outdated course content, insufficient interdisciplinary integration, and weak practical training. Based on the characteristics of industrial development and technical talent demands of Tianjin, this study explores a construction path for the automation program through 6 major areas: curriculum system optimization, interdisciplinary integration, reform of teaching methods, construction of diversified practical platforms, enhanced industry-education collaboration, and restructured assessment systems. By aligning academic training with regional industrial needs, the program achieves high-quality development and improves talent cultivation outcomes. The results demonstrate that the reform strategies significantly enhance students’ engineering practice and innovation capabilities, providing valuable insights for other local universities exploring engineering education reform under the "New Engineering" framework.
