A Research on the Education Mode of Innovative Software Talents Oriented to Emerging Engineering

Abstract

The new generation of technologies, represented by cloud computing, artificial intelligence (AI), internet of things (IoT), and mobile internet, is driving the great renovation of human society as well as the rapid development of new economy and new industries. New requirements are then emerged for the software engineering education at this new era. Hunan University (HNU) relies on outstanding platforms, such as the National Demonstration Software College, the National Featured Software Engineering Major, and the National Pilot Zone for Software Talents Education, carrying out researches on teaching mode renovation, course scheme renovation, and practice scheme renovation within a series of teaching renovation projects. As a result, the Innovative Software Talents (IST) education scheme has been established with accountable achievements and it also has been widely introduced, demonstrated, and applied among Chinese universities.
