- Abstract
In response to the transformation of higher education in China, some local universities put forward new requirements for applied education. Lately, a widespread dispute arose regarding the training of talented individuals in the field of foreign languages. The focal point is whether the training should adhere strictly to the essence of foreign language studies, namely language, literature and culture or accentuate the integration of foreign language study with other disciplines. This paper suggests that for local universities, cultivation of foreign language talents should change from a single talent-cultivation mode to a compound talent-cultivation mode. With outcome-based education (OBE) as the theoretical foundation, this study aims to investigate the optimal approach for cultivating applied foreign language talents by exploring the external catalysts and internal pathways that contribute to this process.
