Abstract

With the deepening of globalization, the demand for bilingual talents in the field of engineering management is increasing. However, many application-oriented universities have been confronted with many problems over bilingual education for Engineering Management, such as relatively insufficient teaching resources, monotonous teaching modes and methods, imperfect evaluation system and uneven language foundation of students. In order to solve these problems, the bilingual education reform involving a range of strategies are put forward in this paper including optimizing curriculum setting, improving bilingual education and teaching resources, innovating teaching methods, establishing teacher evaluation mechanism, strengthening students' language training, and implementing stratified teaching. The reform and innovation of bilingual teaching of Engineering Management for undergraduate students is of great significance to the cultivation of international engineering management talents. Only through comprehensive reform and continuous exploration can we meet the demand of bilingual talents in the international arena by improving professional and English application ability and cultivating cross-cultural visions.
