Research and Practice on the Construction of Integrated Curriculum Groups for Low-Altitude Technology and Engineering Specialty in Local Universities

Abstract

As an important representative of new quality productive forces, the low-altitude economy has been included in the Government Work Report of the State Council for two consecutive years and become a key growth pole of China’s strategic emerging industries. Its rapid development has generated an increasingly urgent demand for interdisciplinary technical and skilled talents covering aircraft design and manufacturing, route planning and management, operation and maintenance, and scenario application development, which also puts forward higher requirements for the talent training quality of the Low-Altitude Technology and Engineering program in local universities. In view of prominent problems commonly existing in this program among local universities, such as homogenized curriculum system, insufficient integration of curriculum content, weak practical teaching system, and mismatch between training programs and industrial demands, this study, guided by ability-output orientation and deeply aligned with the development characteristics of regional low-altitude industries, constructs a three-tier integrated curriculum group system featuring "basic sharing, modular diversion, and project integration". The construction and practice are systematically promoted from four dimensions: demand research and competency mapping, curriculum system reconstruction, construction of virtual-real integrated practice platforms, and improvement of multi-dimensional evaluation mechanisms. This scheme aims to break down disciplinary barriers, strengthen students’ engineering practice and innovation capabilities in low-altitude system integration, route planning, scenario application and other fields, and form a closed-loop mechanism of "demand analysis - curriculum reconstruction - dynamic evaluation". It can provide a replicable practical paradigm and theoretical support for the construction of emerging engineering specialties in local universities.
