具有发酵工程学科特色的合成生物学研究生教学改革

Graduate teaching reform on synthetic biology featuring the discipline of fermentation engineering

摘要:

工业生物技术被认为是推动工业可持续发展最有希望的技术。合成生物学的发展为工业生物技术的进步带来了新的机遇同时创造了无限可能。发酵工程是所有生物技术产业化实现的抓手和落脚点。为进一步建立与发酵工程学科相匹配的合成生物学教学体系，教学团队优化了教学内容，创新了教学模式，突出了教学特色(发酵故事讲述培养工匠精神、生物经济教育强化工程化思维和生物伦理与安全教育培育担当精神)，并对本课程教学改革进行了总结和展望。通过教学改革，合成生物学的研究生教学工作有望取得新的进展，为相关领域的合成生物学教学提供参考，同时为工业生物技术的发展(加强生物制造创新能力，培育生物经济新动能)提供人才培养的保障。

Abstract:

Industrial biotechnology is regarded as the most promising technology for sustainable industrial development. The advancement of synthetic biology creates new opportunities and infinite possibilities for the progress of industrial biotechnology. Fermentation engineering is the grab and foothold of the industrialization of all the biotechnologies. Our teaching team optimized the teaching content and innovated the teaching mode to establish a teaching system of synthetic biology matching fermentation engineering. We highlighted the teaching characteristics (telling fermentation story cultivated the craftsmanship spirit; bioeconomic education strengthened the engineering thinking; bioethics and safety education fostered a sense of responsibility), then we summarized and prospected the teaching reform of this course. We believe that the teaching reform of synthetic biology will improve the learning performance of postgraduates, provide a reference for the teaching of synthetic biology in related fields, and promote the development of industrial biotechnology (strengthening the innovation capability in biological manufacturing and cultivating new momentum for bioeconomy).
