Abstract

In higher education, the college students should receive enough training to foster their capability of solving complex engineering problems in real world, which often occur during the material conversion processes from raw materials to target products in scientific laboratories. It is important that their experimental courses in their college studies are arranged in a systematic and complete manner. The scientific researches are often the epitomes of industrial productions. The advanced technologies happened in the laboratories can be exploited as the useful materials to train the capabilities of senior college students in resolving the engineering problems. Using the applications of electrospinning in creating solid dispersions of poorly water-soluble drugs as teaching materials, a series of experimental courses are systematically and completely arranged for the students in their course "Modern Material Analysis Methods". Through these training, the college students' abilities and experiences in resolving the complex engineering problems are expected to be enhanced.
