Standing on the situation of higher engineering education and practice teaching, measures of practice teaching reform for building environment and energy engineering specialty of Hunan University of Technology were described in detail. Taking general practical ability, basal practical ability, professional practical ability and comprehensive practical ability as the core, a practical teaching system of four levels and four modules was constructed which was suitable for practical ability training to innovate the teaching links including the comprehensive course design, engineering technical training and in-post teaching training. The practice result indicates that the practical teaching system has a good effect on the cultivation of building environment and energy engineering majors’ practical abilities, and makes them more competitive in job-hunting.
