1. Course nature and tasks
In order to meet the needs of international students to learn professional knowledge and Chinese language exchanges, as well as domestic graduate students to engage in scientific research and academic exchanges in English, bilingual teaching in Chinese and English for professional courses is one of the current postgraduate teaching reforms and innovations. "Animal Gametes and Embryo Bioengineering" is currently an elective course for most majors related to life sciences. It is also a popular research content in the field of life sciences and is the basis for relevant research. Therefore, taking it as a bilingual teaching course is in line with the long-term goal of the internationalization of graduate training. "Animal Gamete and Embryo Bioengineering" is a course that teaches the basic principles, basic laws and related technologies of animal reproduction. Animal Gamete and Embryo Bioengineering is a professional elective course. The subjects of the course are mainly animal sciences in our school. There are mainly full-time international students studying for a master's degree in the College of Technology, the College of Life Science and Technology, and the School of Veterinary Medicine, as well as some domestic master's students. The number of electives does not exceed 20, and the total class hours are 24 hours, mainly based on theoretical teaching. The subject should have a certain basic knowledge of bilingual listening and speaking, and a certain basic knowledge of life sciences, mainly engaged in or planning to engage in scientific research related to the course content. The subject areas of the subjects cover animal genetics and breeding, animal production systems and engineering, animal medical engineering and biology.
"Animal Gamete and Embryo Bioengineering" is based on the undergraduate level of animal physiology, animal anatomy and embryology, animal genetics, and is based on the undergraduate compulsory course "Animal Reproduction". Under the in-depth learning level and a broader knowledge system, the understanding and deepening of the basic principles, general rules, and mechanism of animal reproduction are also an in-depth understanding of the conventional technology of animal reproduction, animal reproduction biotechnology, the current status of animal reproduction and the frontier research And grasp. The main task of this course is to systematically explain the basic principles and basic theories of animal reproduction, and to deeply explore the theoretical basis, technical links and application status of animal reproduction technology. Through intensive classroom teaching, students are trained to form a relatively solid knowledge system of animal reproduction, grasp the current situation of relatively systematic research and application of animal reproduction technology, and cultivate graduate students with the basic ability to solve scientific problems of animal reproduction, and adopt appropriate reproduction technology in production practice It can improve the reproductive efficiency of animals, increase the quantity and quality of animal products, or create higher academic value through related scientific research.
