Abstract

In twenty-first Century, many countries have formulated relevant industrial development strategies to improve the competitiveness of the country's manufacturing industry. The Made in China 2025 strategy which is in combination with the national conditions has been established in China under the provisions of relevant industrial development strategies. In order to make the mechanical engineering talents trained by Chinese colleges and universities meet the needs of the national manufacturing and development strategy better, it is urgent to develop mechanical engineering curriculum of most Universities in China. Engineering Education in western developed countries has been in the forefront of the world. The reform of mechanical engineering major in Chinese colleges and universities can gain a reliable reference through the comparison with the curriculum system of mechanical engineering in western countries, and it also helps to improve the international standards and competitiveness of mechanical engineering specialty of China. Secondly, based on China's actual situation and the new requirements of the current national manufacturing strategy, the reform of China's mechanical engineering curriculum would be more practical. The above curriculum system reform method shall be a good reference for the reform of the curriculum system in other developing countries.
