Abstract: In the foundational graduate course “Chemical Reaction Kinetics”, we adhere to an educational philosophy centered on students’ learning and development. The curriculum is tightly integrated with both ideological and political education and cutting-edge disciplinary content. We employ alternating teaching models including problem-based learning (PBL) and research-based learning (RBL) to engage students actively as learners. This approach helps consolidate fundamental knowledge, develop scientific rational thinking, and enhance innovative capabilities. It also builds comprehensive analytical and problem-solving abilities, laying a solid foundation for students’ future achievements in scientific research.

Key words: Foundational graduate course, Chemical reaction kinetics, Teaching model, Innovation ability, Advanced quality
