Reform and practice of talent cultivation in Bioengineering, Biotechnology and Bioscience majors under the background of rural revitalization: taking Huazhong Agricultural University as an example

Abstract:

Rural revitalization is the only way to achieve agricultural and rural modernization. Agricultural universities undertake the mission of cultivating talents to serve the national strategy. Talents in Bioengineering, Biotechnology and Bioscience majors play an important role in rural revitalization. However, problems occurred in the practice of talent cultivation of the three majors at agricultural universities, including students' unconcern for agriculture, insufficient choices of course and poor practical teaching. Taking Huazhong Agricultural University as an example, we proposed measures for constructing Bioengineering, Biotechnology and Bioscience majors in the new era so as to improve the quality of talents serving rural revitalization strategy. The specific measures included fostering students' passion for agriculture, reconstructing the curriculum system, developing collaborative education, building an outstanding faculty team, and establishing a teaching quality-oriented culture.
