With the promotion of a new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation, cultivating excellent engineers in the new era shouldering the important responsibility of national rejuvenation has become the top priority of higher education. To realize the high-quality cultivation of postgraduates in civil engineering, three major problems existing in the current cultivation mode are analyzed, including the disconnection between ideological and political education and professional education, the lag of curriculum system and the superficiality of school-enterprise cooperation. In view of these problems, this paper proposes to construct a specific reform path with integration of ideological and political elements, reconstruction of curriculum system and reform of industry-university integration mechanism as the direction. Moreover, specific implementation suggestions are put forward regarding building a seamless course ideological and political education model, constructing a new interdisciplinary and integrated curriculum system, and establishing a deeply integrated cultivating mechanism between universities and enterprises, so as to provide a practical path for improving the training quality of professional postgraduates in civil engineering.
