The training mode of professional master degree graduates (referred to as "professional master") should be based on the professional level of the school and serve the needs of local economic development. Based on the school's talent training concept and professional master training objectives, taking the training mode of professional master of civil engineering in the college as the research object, under the background of the annual increase of national professional master enrollment plan and the continuous improvement of training quality, this paper analyzes and summarizes the current situation of enrollment and training of professional master—"emphasizing academic degree and neglecting professional degree" is stubborn,"the first choic more, less regulation" is unstable and low, the concept of "deep theory, shallow practice" is inertial and "Campus tight, enterprise loose" force split. In combination with the overall development level and training target orientation of the civil engineering major of the school, some feasible measures and suggestions are put forward in terms of school/college professional master enrollment/ transference policy, thesis topic selection and the whole process of ideological and political education, selection and management of campus tutors, selection and assessment of enterprise tutors, etc. The author interprets the three-year training mode of a professional master as a case to explain, years of practice has shown that the training effect is good, it can provide some references for other similar engineering professional master training mode.
