Teaching Restructuring and Practical Exploration of Object Engineering Course under the Background of Undergraduate-Graduate Integration

Motivated by both the industrialization of the fourth generation artificial intelligence technology and the reform of the undergraduate-graduate integrated education in higher education, Shanghai University of Science and Technology takes the core graduate course "Object Engineering" with a 15 years' teaching history as the carrier to start the integration reform of undergraduate-graduate in the form of undergraduate AI program, which focus on the programming implementation aspects, yet ignore system design.The important positioning of the curriculum course linking under graduates and enhance graduate students' abilities and skills of system design is proposed in this paper.Following the overall goals of knowledge integration, ability hierarchy and competency fitting, the reform framework that includes modular curriculum system, differentiated teaching approach and industry-edu-research supporting system is established.The framework can help to face the problems mentioned before regarding the lack of knowledge of the students by using the knowledge gap of bachelor and master studies, the lack of realistic practical situations, that help the students developing their systems thinking and engineering skills.It attempts to nurture artificial intelligence interdisciplinary talents with programming skills, designing abilities, and practical ability, and meanwhile lays down an applied model for integrated undergraduate-graduate building of engineering class curriculum in universities.
