Abstract: The global biopharmaceutical industry is currently characterized by concentrated development, with dominant positions held by developed countries such as the United States, the United Kingdom, and Japan. Concurrently, China is experiencing rapid enhancements in the innovation, output, and production capabilities of biopharmaceuticals, significantly increasing the demand for exceptional innovative talents. This surge aligns with the “New Medical Science” initiative aimed at cultivating top-tier innovative professionals. Medicinal chemistry, a core course in the pharmacy discipline, not only plays a crucial role in the professional training of these talents, but also bears the responsibility of cultivating their ethical and societal qualities. However, the integration of ideological and political education within the current curriculum lacks a systematic framework. The course team continuously innovates teaching philosophies, restructures content, and updates methodologies to embed ideological and political education effectively. By integrating industry-related and research-driven content throughout the course, this approach develops the stewardship expected of pharmacy professionals and improves students’ sense of academic fulfillment. This exploratory practice seeks to offer insights and serve as a reference for implementing similar educational reforms in pharmacy-related disciplines.

Key words: Medicinal chemistry, Ideological and political education, Integration point, Educational cultivation
