Construction and Practice of the "Integration of General and Specialized Education" Curriculum System for Smart Agriculture under the Guidance of New Agricultural Science.

The construction of new agricultural science has put forward the core requirements of "interdisciplinary integration, service industry demand, and cultivation of composite talents" for the smart agriculture major. The "integration of general and specialized education" is the key path to solve the problems of "prominent disciplinary barriers, fragmented knowledge structure, and weak practical ability" in the traditional curriculum system. In this paper, the College of Smart Agriculture from Yulin Normal University is taken as the research object. Based on the characteristics of regional agricultural industry and the positioning of professional education, the prominent problems in the current professional curriculum system of smart agriculture are analyzed, the construction concept of "strong foundation in general education, precise core in professional education, and breaking through boundaries in integrated education" is proposed, and a "three dimensions and four layers" integrated curriculum system framework for general and specialized education is constructed. Moreover, practical exploration is conducted from the aspects of curriculum module design, teaching mode innovation, and guarantee mechanism construction. Practice has shown that this curriculum system effectively enhances students' interdisciplinary application abilities and industry adaptability, and provides a practical sample for the reform of smart agriculture courses in local universities under the background of new agricultural science.
