Abstract: This paper systematically analyzes the content, structure, and teaching characteristics of two core vocational undergraduate courses: Engineering Mechanics and Mechanical Principles & Design. In light of the increasing demand for high-level skilled talents who possess both solid theoretical knowledge and strong practical abilities, this study proposes a comprehensive reorganization and integration of the overlapping and repetitive knowledge points between these two courses. By merging related concepts and focusing on the application of fundamental mechanical theories to real-world machinery problems, the reformed curriculum aims to enhance students' learning efficiency and deepen their understanding of key principles. The integrated teaching approach not only improves students' theoretical literacy but also significantly strengthens their practical problem-solving capabilities, fostering the development of innovative and competent mechanical engineering professionals. This curriculum reform provides a strategic pathway to optimize instructional time allocation, accommodate emerging vocational requirements, and ultimately achieve the goal of cultivating high-end skilled talents suited for the demands of modern industry and technology.
