Abstract

Professional degrees focus on practice, emphasizing vocational skills and application. In recent years, enrollment in these programs has steadily increased, making it a mainstream trend in graduate education. However, a common issue with professional degree programs is the lack of clear differentiation from academic graduate education, leading to limited effectiveness in professional practice. In the present work, we conducted a comprehensive analysis of the current challenges in professional degree education. Additionally, we explored an industry-oriented, progressive, and multi-dimensional ability training goal for graduate students majoring in engineering. We also developed a quality evaluation index system for the practice sessions of civil and hydraulic engineering professional degree programs. Leveraging the full-time master’s program in civil and hydraulic engineering at Xijing University as a case study, we aim to investigate a new model of practical teaching in these professional graduate programs.
