According to general standards of the plan for educating and training outstanding engineers (PETOE) of civil engineering specialty and adhering to creation, innovation and enterprise education concepts of Wuhan University which takes the innovation and engineering practice ability education as the core, thirty undergraduates were selected from civil engineering class of 2010 as the first experimental outstanding engineers class to explore and practice PETOE. The general courses, engineering basic courses and specialized course were carefully set for them and they were required to enter National Engineering Practical Center or provincial engineering practice training base for enterprise training programs. In addition, they were required to participate in student innovation and entrepreneurship training program. These procedures were expected to keep these students’ knowledge, ability and quality at a high level, to arouse their passion for innovation as well as to cultivate their professional interest and professionalism. After two years practice, satisfied outcomes were achieved. Based on this, we extended the experience to two classes every year in our college as “outstanding engineer class”. The plan was also expanded in construction, underground engineering, and road and bridge engineering.
