To help the emerging engineering education construction and meet the demands of talents cultivating under the new situation, it is imperative to conduct research and practice on the ideological and political education in the course of engineering mechanics. Firstly, it seeks to optimize the teaching content by integrating ideological and political education into the theory and practice of engineering mechanics. Secondly, innovative teaching methods will be employed, including case-based teaching and project practices, guiding students to connect knowledge of engineering mechanics with issues such as social development and engineering ethics. In addition, emphasis will be placed on fostering students’ teamwork spirit and social responsibility through teamwork and practical projects. Finally, an effective evaluation system will be established, comprehensively assessing students’ overall qualities and the effectiveness of ideological and political education, thereby forming a synergistic educational effect.
