Recently, the Ministry of Education announced the results of the third batch of national first-class undergraduate course recognitions, and our university achieved remarkable success with 17 courses selected. These include 9 hybrid first-class courses (online and offline), 4 online first-class courses, 3 offline first-class courses, and 1 virtual simulation experimental teaching first-class course. To date, the university has secured a total of 43 national first-class undergraduate courses, ranking second among provincial universities in Shandong Province in terms of total selections.
In recent years, the university has seized the opportunity to develop first-class undergraduate courses, systematically planning and advancing efforts while continuously strengthening undergraduate course construction across multiple dimensions: continuously enriching course resources and expanding the boundaries of teaching and learning; deepening curriculum reforms to fully invigorate classroom dynamics; focusing on strengthening quality control to solidify the foundation of education and teaching; and gradually improving incentive mechanisms to effectively motivate faculty engagement.
Moving forward, the university will leverage the exemplary role of national and provincial first-class undergraduate courses to implement the education digitalization strategy with higher standards and more concrete measures. Emphasis will be placed on strengthening "AI+" course development, injecting new momentum into curriculum system reforms and the enhancement of teaching quality.
