Abstract

With the rapid development of economic globalization and technology, higher education is facing new challenges and opportunities. The traditional education model can no longer fully meet the needs of modern engineering and technical talents, especially in the complex and ever-changing field of engineering project financing. In order to adapt to this change, this article explores the possibility and implementation strategies of introducing a cross-school credit system for engineering project financing courses in civil engineering majors. The reform aims to broaden students' knowledge horizons, enhance their ability to solve practical problems, and promote communication and cooperation among universities by sharing high-quality educational resources. This article first analyzes the main problems in the current teaching of engineering project financing courses, such as the disconnect between theory and practice, and uneven distribution of teaching resources. Subsequently, through the study of successful cases both domestically and internationally, a specific plan for implementing the cross-school credit system was proposed. This plan not only covers the unification of curriculum standards and the design of evaluation systems, but also pays special attention to how to use modern information technology means, such as online learning platforms and virtual laboratories, to achieve cross regional teaching interaction and resource sharing. Meanwhile, based on the successful experience of pilot projects, this article proposes suggestions for further promoting this model and looks forward to the future development trend of engineering project financing course teaching. We believe that with the advancement of information technology and changes in social demands, the cross-school credit system will become one of the important ways to cultivate composite engineering and technical talents that meet the requirements of the new era.
