Practice exploration of a three-dimensional tutorial system for cultivating applied talents in civil engineering under the new engineering background—a case study from a university in Zhejiang Province

In the current implementation of China’s higher engineering education “New Engineering” background, the undergraduate tutorial system is conducive to promoting the change in the educational concept and the improvement of education quality, as a new interactive education teaching model and has great significance in promoting the reform of China’s higher engineering education. Aiming at the problems existing in the existing tutorial system of undergraduate classes, this paper puts forward the model of a “vertical and horizontal crossing and flow-style three-dimensional” undergraduate tutorial system. This paper constructs the undergraduate tutorial system from multiple perspectives and conducts preliminary practice, by taking the civil engineering major of a university as an example, so as to provide a reference for setting up the undergraduate tutorial system of a civil engineering major in most universities in China.
