Abstract：The goal of moving faster to build a powerful agricultural country is proposed in the report of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China. For agricultural colleges and universities, it is im-portant to make sure that the students are well qualified for modern food industry. Food biochemistry is one of the basic professional courses of food science and technology. However, there are problems in the teaching process, such as lack of close connection between courses, insufficient ability for students to transfer know-ledge, disconnection between teaching and engineering education, a low growth value for students and so on. To overcome these weaknesses in teaching and to carry out the engineering education professional certifica-tion, the course content and a new curriculum system were restructured. The teaching reform included inte-grated ideological and political education, innovated teaching models and methods, and diversified assess-ment and evaluation system. These measures proved to bring benefits to students in improving their innova-tion skills, establishing correct scientific emotions and sense of value. In conclusion, the attempts that made in teaching the course have raised the teaching quality, and may provide reference for other course reforms.
