Practice on cultivating computer application ability for the Opto-electronics Engineering students in graduation design

Economic progress and information technology development have spurred the demand of multi-talents. So cultivating the compound talents with computer application ability is one of the main duties for the Subject Construction of Opto-electronics Engineering. According to this, the hierarchical curriculum system of the computer application education for opto-electronics engineering undergraduates is briefly introduced. The problem of how to strengthen training of integrated capability especially the computer application skills of students through graduation design is expatiated emphatically. Taking an example of the graduation design based on LabVIEW, which is such an icon-based graphical programming language that allows engineers to express their ideas in a more intuitive and natural way, the following means are explained: enhancing the capability of problem analysis in starting phase; training of solving problem independently in execution phase; cultivating the ability of induction and summarization in the thesis writing period. The practices show that the above strategies can help students to improve multi-aspect capability and to meet the requirements of society better.
