Research on Training Objectives of Civil Engineering Talents in Local Engineering Colleges Based on OBE Concept

: The OBE concept is the concept of results-oriented education and the core concept of engineering education certification. Under the background of rapid industrial development, China has put forward higher requirements for talent training. However, at present, many colleges and universities, especially a large number of local colleges and universities, still have problems such as unclear positioning, insufficient basis and unreasonable standards for the training objectives of professional talents, which need to be studied and improved according to the OBE concept. Taking the civil engineering specialty of Wuhan University of Science and Technology as an example, this paper carries out relevant analysis from four aspects : the formulation basis, specific content, open channel and rationality evaluation of professional training objectives. The research results can provide reference for the research on talent training objectives of local engineering colleges.


Introduction
In June 2016, China successfully became a formal member of the Washington Accord, marking that the engineering education certification work in China has been fully affirmed internationally and the engineering education in China has taken another major step.The core concepts of engineering education accreditation are " Student-centered " , " Outcomes-oriented " and " Continuous improvement ".Therefore, engineering education certification requires Outcomes-Based Education (OBE).
The research on the concept of foreign OBE education began early, and systematic research was carried out from the aspects of generation, development and specific application [1][2][3].However, China's research on the concept of OBE education began relatively late.In recent years, Chinese have gradually realized the role of OBE education concept in higher education, especially in higher engineering education, and made some useful explorations [4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11], we should also clearly realize that in the benchmark analysis with international engineering education certification standards, the orientation of professional talents training objectives in some universities in China is not clear.The basis for the formulation of training objectives is insufficient, and the talent standards set by the training objectives are not reasonable enough.As an important human resource in the strategy of " Made in China 2025 " and " Industry 4.0", the applied engineering talents trained by local engineering colleges largely restrict the speed and scale of industrial modernization.
In this context, it is an example of great theoretical value and practical significance to carry out research on talent training objectives of local engineering colleges based on OBE.Therefore, taking the civil engineering major of Wuhan University of Science and Technology as an example, this paper carries out a research on the objectives of talent training based on the OBE concept, so as to provide reference for the top-level design of relevant professional education in local engineering colleges and universities.
