BEIJING, Sept. 23 (Xinhua) — China is pushing forward with comprehensive education reform to better meet the needs of students and the country's socio-economic development, Education Minister Huai Jinpeng said on Tuesday.

He said the country is adjusting the distribution of educational resources, moving away from a sole focus on higher education admissions by intensifying the development of county-level secondary schools and advancing reforms in high school and college entrance examinations.

In higher education, China is also exploring ways to diversify student development pathways. For example, under the "Outstanding Engineer Program," graduate students can use innovative achievements such as patents, product development, and software development to apply for degrees, said Huai Jinpeng.

This is a historic breakthrough towards reforming the system in which academic degrees are awarded solely on the basis of dissertations, he added.

China is also pushing ahead with reforms to match the supply of talented professionals with demand, Huai Jinpeng noted, emphasizing that the country currently publishes an annual list of critically needed specialized skills to meet socio-economic development needs. -0-

Students from the Construction and Automobile and Road Engineering departments of St. Petersburg State University of Architecture and Civil Engineering (SPbGASU) attended a field trip to the construction site of an apartment building in the village of Roshchino in the Leningrad Region. The trip was organized by the university's Center for Student Entrepreneurship and Career Development in partnership with LenOblAHML.

The building is being constructed as part of the state program "Resettlement of Dilapidated and Unsafe Housing." It will house 252 apartments. The design takes into account modern requirements: it implements a barrier-free environment, includes playgrounds, sports fields, and landscaped grounds.

"These construction site visits are especially useful for first- and second-year undergraduate students. During a live discussion with Evgeny Vadimovich Muzyka, chief engineer at LenOblAIZHK, the students learned about the technology and organization of construction and installation work, were introduced to the utility equipment and networks that will service the residential building, and also learned about the financing of such projects. The state is constructing residential buildings in the Leningrad Region under a five-year program and relocating residents from dilapidated and decrepit housing," noted Roman Motylev, head of the Construction Management Department at SPbGASU.

During the tour, students witnessed key stages of construction: roof installation, window and door installation, utility equipment installation, and external utility lines.

"The tour was useful and interesting: I learned more about the construction process and the work of the specialists. This was good experience for my future profession," said Stanislav Oborin, a construction student.

"This trip was a valuable experience for future engineers and construction workers: they learned about the implementation of a major social project and saw how modern technologies are applied in practice," emphasized Ekaterina Abolina, Director of the Student Entrepreneurship and Career Center.
