Abstract: With the development of economic structure transformation and technological innovation in China, applied chemistry, as one of the most dynamic disciplines, is becoming the source of new technologies, new industries and new forms of business. In recent years, the construction of emerging engineering education has become the key content of higher education reform, and applied chemistry major has also undergone a series of adjustments and innovations under this background. In order to promote the construction of “emerging engineering education” of applied chemistry major, Shandong Provincial Undergraduate Chemistry Major and College Chemistry Course Teaching Steering Committee conducted a survey on the teaching content and teaching requirements of applied chemistry major in Shandong Province. This paper analyzes, compares and summarizes the investigation results, finds out some problems and adjustments in the process of promoting the construction of “emerging engineering education” of applied chemistry major in Shandong Province, and puts forward some suggestions for future construction.

Key words: Applied chemistry major, Emerging engineering education, Survey, Recommendations
