ABSTRACT

Constructing emerging engineering education is a direction of transformation and development for applied universities in the new era. Cultivating innovative entrepreneurship talents is the inevitable requirement of building an innovative country. There are some problems in training students by applying the traditional engineering education, such as poor Computational Thinking and low innovative ability. It is suggested that all-round reforms and innovations should be carried out by means of the construction of "golden course", the training of teachers as well as the integration of development and the collaboration of education in order to cultivate students' Innovative Computational Thinking.
