Taking cultivate virtues and morality as the core task, combined with the running process of civil engineering major of Central South University and the characteristics of transportation civil engineering, the ideological and political education spirit of civil engineering specialty is refined, and the construction of the ideological and political education system with civil engineering specialty characteristics is promoted from three perspectives: professional ideological and political education, platform ideological and political education and cultural ideological and political education. Professional ideological and political education is to expand the connotation of cultivate virtues and morality and reconstruct the professional teaching system through the content of curriculum ideological and political education, innovative teaching methods, the integration of university-enterprise science and education and professional collaboration. It focuses on building the library of ideological and political elements of civil engineering courses from eight aspects: strategic engineering, super engineering, artisans from big countries, industry elites, industry development, outstanding alumni, engineering cases and discipline frontiers, so as to promote the systematic and standardized construction of ideological and political elements of civil engineering courses. Platform ideological and political education consists of six educational platforms, namely, ideological and political education center, teaching classroom, scientific research platform, practice base, network space and student organization, to create a base of cultivate virtues and morality with the integration of virtual and reality, and to make the professional ideological and political teaching entity practical and strong. Cultural ideology and politics is based on the columns of Teacher Talk, Confucius Said, Famous Teacher Lecture Hall and Alumni Interview to construct the college culture in six dimensions: fine traditions, teachers’ fashion, alumni footprints, famous talents style, students’ fashion and campus activities, so as to create a cultural environment of cultivate virtues and morality. Since the full implementation of ideological and political education system in civil engineering specialty, Party Committee plays the main role in ideological and political education reform, creates new swimmer and contribution for the Party mass work, obviously improves the teachers’ initiative to carry out the curriculum reform, curriculum construction, teaching platform construction, and ideological and political education is fruitful.
