Discussion on Requirements and Training Strategies of Programming in Ocean Engineering

Abstract

The development of the ocean is receiving more and more attention. To train a group of high-quality ocean engineering talents is a goal of current higher engineering education. Programming ability, as an important skill required for the development of computer technology since the 21st century, has a wide application in the advantage technology of ocean engineering. In this article, the key requirements of ocean engineering for programming skills are discussed. In response to these needs, we have proposed a series of reforms in the lecture notes and teaching material. The optimization of the teaching plan is given. At last, research projects and internships are used as two incentives to promote students' initiative in learning. They are proposed to help students to accept the training of programming
