为保证毕业设计质量，同济大学机械与能源工程学院针对建筑环境与能源应用工程专业毕业设计教学中存在的不足，启动了毕业设计配套课程即工程设计方法课程的建设和教学工作。该课程设置“综合设计知识”“绘图设计知识”“产品设计知识”三大类教学模块，邀请具有工程背景的专业教师、资深设计师和技术人员开设讲座课，讲授与实际工程设计直接相关的知识和案例。课后教学效果调查结果表明，该课程在毕业设计中的作用得到学生高度认可，其中“综合设计知识”教学模块最受学生欢迎。文章对此项课程建设及其效果进行了介绍。

There are some common problems in the teaching process of graduation project, such as lack of experienced teachers with engineering practice background, a gap between specialized course and graduation project course, and inadequate engineering design skills of the students. In this paper, a course called engineering design method was set for the graduation project. It contained three knowledge modules including comprehensive design knowledge, drawing design knowledge, and products design knowledge. During the course, some experienced teachers, designers and technicians were invited to give lectures which contained knowledge points and project cases related to engineering design. A teaching effect investigation was also conducted after the course. The result revealed that the course was highly recognized by the students, and the comprehensive design knowledge was the most popular in the knowledge modules.
