In the context of accelerating globalization and the deepening of the Belt and Road Initiative, the educational model for international students in China is shifting from mere knowledge transmission to value-oriented guidance and fostering cultural identity. Addressing these new circumstances and challenges, a systematic curriculum ideological and political education framework for architecture students has been developed, encompassing theoretical, practical, and managerial dimensions. Taking the nine specialized courses for international students at the School of Architecture and Urban Planning, Chongqing University, as a case study, this research provides an in-depth analysis of the application of this framework in teaching practice. Through the identification of ideological and political elements within course content, the integration of these elements into course syllabi, and the comprehensive embedding of ideological and political education, the initiative achieves a seamless fusion of professional education and ideological guidance. This approach not only provides an effective pathway for cultivating globally-minded architectural professionals, but also enhances the international competitiveness and influence of Chinese architectural education.
