Research on Job-Oriented Practical Talents Training Mode ��Civil Engineering Major As an Example

Abstract

This text begins with the social employment demand on graduates major in civil engineering, elaborates the connotation of cultivation of practical talents, and discusses the construction of practical talents training system from the perspectives of training objective and training standard, curricular system construction, teaching staff construction, and training program and ways. It emphasizes the importance of practical talents training in cultivating civil engineering students’ practical ability, and puts forward supporting measures for implementing civil engineering practical talents’ training from the perspectives of teaching content, practical teaching proportion, and teaching staff. Introduction Along with the advancement of urbanization in our country, the social demand for civil engineering graduates is increasing. Civil engineering major graduates may engage in a lot of jobs after graduation, such as managers like construction crew or supervisor in the construction site, counselors engaging in bidding or construction cost, and designers for construction or structure design. Thus students need to improve their overall quality and technical skills, and at the same time have professional practice skill certificates to quickly take up the job role. Therefore, with strong practicality and social application quality, civil engineering major students need to be practically and theoretically dual-energy Practical talents. The Connotation of Practical Talents Training The Concept of Training in Colleges and Universities. Talent training mode is the product of higher education teaching reform in our country, which was born in the late 1980’s, and developed in the mid 90’s. Gong Yizu expressed the connotation of university training in On University Training Mode that it is some kind of standard structure style and operation established in the designing of training process with a certain education idea as the essence, higher education training activities as ontology or prototype, and revolving around training target and it has evident systemic-ness and paradigm. It will take it as the basis in combining with the concrete practice, and takes into account or aims at different objects and conditions to form varied, stylish and featured variants1. Therefore, college training can be summarized as cultivation is the whole process of what kind of and to on the basis of certain education thought or education theory in order to cultivate people's knowledge, ability and quality as a goal according to paradigm and systematicness. Practical talents is relative in terms of academic talents, which emphasizes that a type of specialized talents who can adapt to the actual need of vast employ units as orientation, faces the grass-roots and production line, has a range of complex and comprehensive technologies, and can apply professional knowledge and skills to professional and social practices. Practical talents pay 2nd International Conference on Science and Social Research (ICSSR 2013) © 2013. The authors Published by Atlantis Press 150 attention to the usefulness of knowledge, have innovation spirit and comprehensive ability to use knowledge, and have good ability to deal with instant changes in modern society. The Qualification of Practical Talents. Practical talents are the talents who transform scientific theory into engineering principle and then convert it to products, who mainly engage in the work which is closely related to social production and living and produces economical benefits. Based on the graduation whereabouts, civil engineering practical talents can be divided into the following three categories: (1) Engineering talents. Their main task is to transform the scientific principles found by practical talents into design and planning which can be directly used in social practice, such as civil engineering architecture, and structure designer. (2) Skilled talents. They are to transform the drawing designed by engineering talents into specific products in the first line in production through actual operation, such as construction crew with construction engineering technology specialty. (3) Technical talents. They are in the first production line, but they are not specific operators, but are engaging in practice activities like organization and management of production, or service, such us engineering consultant, project manager, etc. majoring in construction project management. The Meaning of Practical Talents Training Mode. The former deputy minister of education Zhou Yuanqing has made a brief description on the concept of talent training mode: the so-called training is actually talents' training target, training specifications and basic training methods. In his book Cultivation Modes, Wei Suokang puts forward that training is the time specification and operating style generally agreed and complied with by a certain education institutions or the community of education workers about training activities. With his education purpose as the guide, education method as concrete realization form,it is all elements comprehensive and the whole process comprehensive of education activities which directly effect the body and mind of the instructees based on education content. It reflects a sectional education phenomenon under education and above specific teaching methods. This article regards that training mainly involves three aspects: one is to cultivate what person namely, training objectives and training specifications; The second is who cultivates, that is professional teacher team construction and curriculum system construction; The third is how to train people, that is training program and training methods. Civil Engineering Practical Talents Training Construction Training Objectives and Training Specifications. Talents cultivation target refers to the development of various and all kinds talents in achieving the purposes or specifications, which is the requirements of certain social politics, economy, productivity and science and technology development. In training mode, all reforms are to better realize talents training goal. To satisfy the needs of market characteristics and strengthen civil engineering practical talents education advantages, civil engineering practical talents training goal should be located to develop high quality practical talents with theory, understanding management, and with practical application ability. From three aspects of knowledge, ability and quality as specifications of civil engineering talents cultivation, students are required to have professional basic knowledge and basic skills of practical application ability to master both must be enough professional knowledge and basic skills of
