Establish the sequence of degree education and non-degree education, set up education levels according to the two stages of undergraduate and graduate education, and finally grade the curriculum according to the three standards of China, students and content. At the same time, the policy and financial support, social linkage and communication coordination mechanism are included in the construction model as a guarantee system to ensure the effectiveness of teaching activities.
