Abstract

With the growing trend of interdisciplinary studies and rapid advancements in life sciences, there is a growing call for a re-evaluation of the biotechnology curriculum system, which is crucial for enhancing the program’s effectiveness in talent cultivation. By analyzing the impacts of the increasingly prominent in-terdisciplinary trends, rapid advances in life science research, and the lagging update of training objectives on the development of the biotechnology major, this paper proposes a novel approach for its restructuring. It includes formulating a talent-oriented training program aligned with bioindustry’s needs, recognizing the necessity of interdisciplinary curriculum integration, streamlining content, and building curriculum clusters that embody both the “ecological” perspective and systems biology concepts. The article also discusses the de-velopment trends and key influencing factors for the biotechnology major.

Key words

biotechnology major / construction of curriculum cluster / cross-disciplinarity / course cluster with ecological idea / molecular biology
