The Ministry of Education has put forward the requirement of setting up the "golden course" of virtual simulation under the background of a new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation, which provides comprehensive information gathering channels and high-quality practical operation blocks for the teaching of engineering management major, but the application of engineering management and engineering cost major in colleges and universities throughout the country needs to be further carried out. In order to understand the construction of Virtual Simulation Gold Course of Engineering Management and Engineering Cost Major under the background of new engineering subject, the Steering Committee of Engineering Management and Engineering Cost of the Ministry of Education carried out a questionnaire survey nationwide, discussed the key factors and obstacles of Virtual Simulation Gold Course of Engineering Management and Engineering Cost Major, and put forward countermeasures and suggestions. The results showed that more than 90% of the respondents believe that virtual simulation teaching is very important for the training of engineering management and engineering cost professionals, and recognize its role; however, only 22.54% of the respondents apply for or participate in the construction of virtual simulation teaching courses, and 44.36% of the respondents will definitely or plan to carry out the construction of virtual simulation teaching courses in the coming year. The main obstacles include lack of funds, technical support and related resources support. This study provides suggestions and countermeasures for instructors and professional teachers to promote the construction of virtual simulation gold course in their specialty.
