PRACTICE OF GRADUATION DESIGN BY APPLICATION OF CDIO CONCEPT

Illustrated by the example of process equipment and control engineering major, this article discussed how to improve the students' comprehensive ability under the guidance of CDIO engineering educational concept during phase of graduation design. In the article, the author described how to integrate concepts such as the large-scale engineering, cultivation of comprehensive ability and close contact with industrial actual practices into each link of graduation design during the research and development of full series and all categories of corrugated tube type half volume type heat exchanger through the cooperation between college and enterprise. Specific practices included how to integrate the research and development of the other engineering projects into graduation design; how to combine the comprehensive professional curriculum design with the graduation design, and how to embed more tasks of practical significance into the graduation design. The results of the implementation indicate that the practice of educational reform based on CDIO concept could feasibly ensure the quality of the graduation design.
