Abstract: As a university-wide model course for ideological and political education designed for senior undergraduates, “chemical principles of military high technology” aligns with National University of Defense Technology’s dual positioning as “two academic highlands”. The course addresses the need for cultivating new-type military talents with integrated competencies in politics, military affairs, technology, and culture. Guided by the university motto “Noble Virtue, Extensive Knowledge, Strong Military, and National Rejuvenation”, the curriculum systematically connects with six major chemical-related domains in military high technology. It establishes a “trinity” case repository combining knowledge delivery, capability development, and value cultivation, while implementing a “four-dimensional synergy” pedagogical framework encompassing technical analysis, role model inspiration, ethical deliberation, and historical continuity. The approach features: molecular-level deconstruction of military technological breakthroughs, atomic-level comprehension of scientific ethos, dialectical examination of military technology’s strategic implications, and generational transmission of scientific patriotism—collectively designed to forge high-caliber new-era military professionals.
