High - quality new engineering talent is the key to the development of intelligent manufacturing. The disruptive change of intelligent manufacturing drives engineering personnel training mode synchronization update. The idea of new engineering talents training target,training content,and training methods need renewing. However,the simplification of talent training goals,the delayed training content,and the limitations of training methods have failed to effectively respond to the demands of the reform of the new engi- neering talent training model in the era of intelligent manufacturing. It is suggested to improve the quality of new engineering talents training by creating a multi - level and compound talent training structure,forming a dynamically adjusted specialty layout,perfecting the engineering - oriented course design,and building an integrated and interworking industry and education community.
