ABSTRACT

"Materials for Mechanical Engineering" is an essential foundational course for the students majoring in mechanical engineering. Professionals in the field of mechanical engineering are the core force for the development of industry. While imparting technical knowledge, it is equally significant to pay attention to the students' ideological and political education, thus achieving the unity of fostering both technical expertise and character development. In this work, the main contents of the "Materials for Mechanical Engineering" are summarized. Ideological and political elements are comprehensively investigated from three perspectives. Entry points for the organic integration of ideological and political elements with the course contents are also provided. Furthermore, assessment methods for ideological and political education are explored. A process-based evaluation system for ideological and political education is established in the background of professional engineering accreditation.
