The necessity and urgency of promoting the construction and development of civil engineering with the concept of "new engineering" were pointed out in this paper. The transformation of management mode, the construction of "new engineering", the accreditation system of engineering education and the development of the discipline, as well as the talent fostering in the new era were analyzed. The traditional teaching concept of talents fostering focuses more on theory than on practice, it should be changed for the construction and reform of civil engineering. The construction of "double-qualified" teachers should be strengthened, and the school-enterprise cooperation is actively expand. The construction of training platform inside and outside the school is further promote, and the discipline competition mechanism is improved. The professional knowledge is popularized by the Internet, and the professional reform is comprehensively deepened. Finally, a talent fostering mode is built, which can meet the needs of the industry.
