Abstract:Colleges and universities are important bases for training professional talents. The training system composed of training objectives and curriculum system not only determines the direction of talent training, but also has a profound impact on the quality of talent training. Taking urban and rural planning of the Department of Geography and Planning in State University of New York at Albany as an example, this paper systematically analyzes its training system from the aspects of school-running level, training objectives, curriculum system, and teaching management. From the aspects of training goal setting, knowledge system construction, thinking method training, and professional ethics training, this paper summarizes its school-running experience.
