摘要:在全球学术交流日益频繁的国际化背景下，《植物多糖化学与材料》作为生物质科学与工程领域的核心研究方向，始终是国际科研热点。本文以《植物多糖化学与材料》全英课程建设为具体案例，结合该学科“结构复杂、领域跨度大、前沿成果迭代快”的专业特点，系统论证全英教学在对接国际研究前沿、培养具有跨学科学术交流能力优秀人才中的必要性；同时剖析当前全英授课中存在的“学生英语水平分化、专业教学资源适配性不足、教学方法与学科特性脱节”等现实问题，并针对性地从教学模式创新、考核体系完善和师资能力提升3个维度提出课程改革策略，最终为培养具备国际视野、扎实专业技能与高水平英文应用能力的复合型人才提供实践参考。

Abstract:With the growth of global academic exchange in an internationalized context， “Plant Polysaccharide： Chemistry and Materials”， as one of the core research directions in biomass science and engineering， has consistently received considerable focus in international scientific research. In this paper， the necessity of English-medium instruction (EMI) in connecting with international research trends and cultivating outstanding talent with interdisciplinary academic communication skills was systematically discussed by taking an EMI course “Plant Polysaccharides： Chemistry and Materials” as a specific case study based on specialized characteristics of polysaccharides， e.g.， complex structures， broad interdisciplinary scope， and rapidly evolving research frontiers. Meanwhile， practical challenges in current EMI courses， including disparities in students’ English proficiency， insufficient adaptation of specialised teaching resources， and a disconnect between teaching methods and disciplinary features， were thoroughly analysed. Accordingly， some strategies of course reform were proposed from three dimensions， including innovating teaching models， improving assessment systems， and enhancing faculty capabilities. The ultimate purpose was to provide practical references for cultivating versatile professionals equipped with a global perspective， solid expertise， and high-level English application skills.
