The demand for compound talents in the transformation and upgrading of the construction industry promotes the development of intelligent construction based on the background of Industry 4.0. In response to the national development strategy, this paper described the problems existing in the talent cultivating system of intelligent construction specialty at present, summarized the problems and possible solutions in teaching mode, teaching content and teaching methods, and discussed how to establish an intelligent construction specialty with agricultural and forestry characteristics through interdisciplinary cooperation. With civil engineering as the main body, combined with urban and rural planning, computer science and technology, etc., a multi-disciplinary and multi-disciplinary organic integration is carried out to form a curriculum system of intelligent surveying and mapping, intelligent design, intelligent equipment and construction, intelligent monitoring and operation and maintenance with rural houses as the main body. It is divided into four course group modules, including 14 courses and 10 training projects. In the courses and training projects, there are characteristic modules of rural dwellings. This paper expounds the teaching mode, teaching content and teaching method of the main course group of intelligent construction specialty. Finally, it discusses how to construct the training system of intelligent construction specialty in agricultural and forestry universities from three aspects: forming teaching team, enriching theoretical teaching and broadening practical teaching. Based on the training orientation of the university, this paper highlighted the characteristics of agriculture and forestry and proposed the construction of the cultivating system of intelligent construction specialty in agricultural and forestry universities. Through innovative design of theory and teaching practice, a replicable and practicable mode of better training effect could be achieved.
