Cultivation of applicative talents in in-vitro diagnosis and laboratory medicine characterized by "medicine-engineering combination and school-enterprise cooperation"

Due to the automation of clinical test and analysis, work units like hospitals have reduced the demand for medical laboratory talents, which has increased the employment pressure of graduates. However, the demand for medical laboratory talents is in short supply with the development of the in-vitro diagnosis industry. Guided by the industry development and the employment demand, our school set up the development direction of "in-vitro diagnosis", combined medicine and engineering, established the corresponding curriculum system, adopted school-enterprise (institution) collaboration and explored the talent training mode of "special direction tutor system". In addition, we provided a special course of "Introduction to Medical Laboratory" to freshmen, helping them select direction and plan their career, and exploring how to cultivate medical and engineering compound applied undergraduate talents of medical laboratory major. Key words: Medical laboratory technology; Combination of medicine and engineering; School-enterprise collaboration; In-vitro diagnosis; Characteristic development direction
