Abstract: Higher education combines both breadth and depth, with chemistry serving as a core discipline facilitating the development of other subjects. General chemistry courses are designed to cultivate the precise logical thinking and judgment skills in chemistry among university students. Aiming to advance the construction of “new engineering, new medicine, and new agricultural sciences”, the Department of Chemistry at Zhejiang University has inaugurated eight general courses for nearly 50 majors across the university. The department has pioneered a “four-level, three linkage” general chemistry curriculum system, spanning University Chemistry, General Chemistry (A/H), General Chemistry (B), to Engineering Chemistry, supported by an integrated teacher-teaching department-student management trio and an extensive teaching assistant program. This innovation system develops a chemistry education framework that prioritizes student development, substantially elevating the chemical acumen and problem-solving abilities of students in “new engineering, new medicine, new agricultural sciences”.
