八、教学模式
借鉴英国高等教育培养创新型本科人才的先进理念，除思政和体育以外的所有课程均采用多元化授课模式，融合理论教学、课堂实验、案例学习、综合运用、开放实验等多种教学方法，由“讲3、学2、考1”的传递-接受式教学向“讲1、学2、考3”的自学-辅导式教学转变，重点培养学生自学、问题解决和动手实践的能力，激发学生的内在动力，挖掘其对知识的兴趣，培养学生终身学习能力和工作能力。
九、课程逻辑关系图
专业课程设置体系以“培养具有国际视野、通晓国际规则，具有坚实的自然科学基础、材料科学与工程专业基础和人文基础，专业竞争力强、综合素质高，能够进行跨国学习、工作并具备终生学习能力的复合型创新人才”的人才培养目标为依据，将主要课程分别归入几大课程模块之中，课程之间相互支持与衔接，突出专业特色，满足专业学术型、交叉复合型、就业创业型人才培养要求。主要课程逻辑关系图如下：
Education Programme for Undergraduates（English Version）
NPU Education Programme for Undergraduates
（QMUL Engineering School）
1. Programme Introduction
Materials are the basic necessity of human existence. Materials science and engineering is the foundation of science, technology, and manufacturing. As a syncretic discipline hybridising materials science, engineering, physics, and chemistry, materials science and engineering builds the foundation of aviation, marine engineering, new energy, information technology, renewable resources, and intelligent manufacturing. Material discipline, which covers metals, ceramics, polymers, and composites, is one of the most influential and distinct disciplines in Queen Mary University of London (hereinafter as QMUL). The Materials programme of QMUL provides elite education and professional training for students with a thorough grounding in the structure of materials, the properties of materials, the performance of materials and the manufacturing processes and design. The discipline has been rated as 5-star by the British government many times. A survey conducted by the National Union of Students in 2011 showed that it ranked top 1 in the UK. The Materials programmes in Northwestern Polytechnical University (hereinafter as NPU) enjoy a high reputation and a great popularity internationally. Materials Science and Engineering of NPU is the National Key Discipline and ranked top 3 among all National Key Disciplines in the 2012 Discipline Evaluation in China. NPU also has 6 scientific research and talent-training platforms at national level.
Approved by the Ministry of Education of China, NPU and QMUL have launched a joint educational institution named Queen Mary University of London Engineering School, Northwestern Polytechnical University (hereinafter as JEI), in order to provide Chinese students with typical British education that emphasises on developing undergraduate students’ innovation ability. The JEI, which builds on the acknowledged expertise and experience of the two universities and their complementary research strengths in materials science, fully uses educational resource advantages and high-level international cooperation platforms of both universities to provide a high quality degree level education in the programme of Materials Science and Engineering (080401H). The programme draws on the academic expertise of both institutions and adopts an international teaching mode with curriculum system, teaching materials, and assessment methods from the UK. The mission of this programme is to develop qualified and innovative talents who can study and work transnationally with the knowledge of natural science, materials science and engineering, and social science. Students graduate with comprehensive qualities, high professional competencies, a global horizon, a life-long study ability, and recognition of international rules.
2. Educational Aims
Under the guidance of Marxism, this programme aims to enhance morality and foster talents, to develop qualified and innovative talents who can study and work transnationally with the knowledge of natural science, materials science and engineering, and social science. Students graduate with comprehensive qualities, high professional competencies, a global horizon, a life-long study ability, and the recognition of international rules. Students who have completed their studies are able to pursue higher degrees and research within universities in China and internationally or careers in the expanding materials science and manufacturing industry in world famous enterprises.
(1)Be equipped with solid basic knowledge and professional skills
Students should master basic principles in materials science and engineering, experimental and computing methods in the field of engineering and materials science, and knowledge of material design and making, material forming and shaping, product design, and application development. Students should be equipped with the ability to research and analyse the structure, the properties and the performance of metallic materials, inorganic nonmetallic materials, composite materials, and advanced materials. Students are able to solve technical problems in their professional field.
(2)Be equipped with international competitiveness
Students become highly proficient in English language: reading English materials and books in materials science, writing academic essays in English, and conducting technical presentations in English. The programme develops students’ global horizon and the recognition of international rules via the British teaching mode and overseas internship programme.

8. Mode of Teaching
Taking the use of Britain’s high education concept to cultivate innovative bachelor talents for reference, multiple education modes are practiced, such as theory teaching, experiment teaching, case study, comprehensive application and open-experimental instruction, in all courses except for Chinese Compulsory and PE courses. Teaching Oneself-Guidance instruction approach to “teach 1, learn 2, test 3” is applied instead of traditional Transfer-Accept to “teach 3, learn 2, test 1”. Highlighted on fostering student’s ability to study on his/her own, problem solving and hands-on practice, JEI programmes intend to motivate inner impetus, discover interest for knowledge and cultivate student’s lifelong learning as well as working ability.
9. Curriculum Logical Diagram
In accordance with the aim “to develop qualified and innovative talents who can study and work transnationally with the knowledge of natural science, materials science and engineering, and social science. Students graduate with comprehensive qualities, high professional competencies, a global horizon, a life-long study ability, and the recognition to international rules”, major courses are divided into several modules, support and linked with each other, emphasizing on principle specialty, meeting the education standard of professional, composite and entrepreneurial talents.
