With the quick development of society and the continuous evolution of technology, the demand for talent is also changing. In addition to professional skills and knowledge, the moral character, social responsibility, and humanistic literacy of talents are increasingly emphasized. Therefore, ideological and political education in higher education has become a crucial link in fostering the comprehensive development of students. In the applied undergraduate course "Building Materials", how to integrate ideological and political education with practice to enhance students' ideological qualities and moral cultivation while mastering professional knowledge, is an important issue facing the current educational field. This paper first analyzes the necessity of implementing ideological and political education in the "Building Materials" course, then explores specific practical methods. Through these explorations, we aim to help students establish correct values, enhance the sense of social responsibility and engineering ethics, and improve their professional literacy and practical skills, which is significant for cultivating high-quality, application-oriented talents that meet societal needs.
