Abstract: In response to the growing demand for international talents in society, bilingual teaching in chemistry programs has become an emerging trend. However, compared to traditional courses taught in Chinese, bilingual courses require higher levels of students' English proficiency, subject comprehension, and cross-cultural communication skills. To adapt to the trend of educational internationalization, this paper examines the teaching methods for bilingual courses in chemistry, using the “Instrumental Analysis” course as an example. It explores the challenges encountered in the teaching process and proposes corresponding solutions, providing a reference for the advancement of bilingual teaching models.
