Textile Specialty: Solving The Problem Of "Clothing And Quilt" In Modern Society

China Youth Daily client Beijing, July 21 (China Youth Daily · Zhongqing net reporter Zhang Qian) know how to wear but not textile? Guo Jiansheng, former vice president of the school of textile, Donghua University and Secretary General of the textile Education Committee of the Ministry of education, interprets the textile specialty. He said that the task of textile is to solve the problem of "clothing and quilt in the world" in modern society. On the one hand, it is necessary to meet people's increasing needs for various kinds of textiles in a better life; on the other hand, it is necessary to meet the needs of all walks of life, national defense and military industry, heaven and earth, medical and health care and other flexible products.

He said that textiles have already become indispensable "soft material materials" in other industries. For example, the interior materials of various vehicles, the "geotextiles" used in the construction of expressways and high-speed railways, industrial filtering materials, various sanitary and medical textiles, such as masks, protective clothing, etc. In addition, textile structural composites have been widely used because of their high strength and light weight. Smart wearable textiles are also in the ascendant.

Reporter: what will textile majors learn?

Guo Jiansheng: textile majors include textile engineering, clothing design and engineering, nonwoven materials and engineering. The interdisciplinary knowledge of textile design and manufacturing is interdisciplinary. Students should have strong knowledge of textile industry, basic knowledge of science and technology, knowledge of science and technology, and knowledge of science and technology It is characterized by rapid renewal.

How to design and develop new functions of domestic textiles, how to make textiles more comfortable, hygienic and beautiful, how to design and prepare textiles with various functions for other industries, and how to embody the concept of environmental protection and green in the design and production preparation, and how to make the textiles more in line with social needs and better sales. These are the tasks that textile professionals have to do.

From a large point of view, China's textile industry is the largest and most complete textile manufacturing industry system in the world. It is a traditional pillar industry, an important livelihood industry and an industry that creates new international advantages. Combined with China's national conditions, textile industry, as an important livelihood industry and strategic industry, can not disappear at any time. It is called "the sun never sets" industry by some media.

From a detailed point of view, textile is a complex product with multiple attributes such as function, culture and art. It is closely related to people's good life and the needs of all walks of life. It is necessary to solve the complex engineering problems in R & D, design and production preparation with innovative thinking and Engineering ability and comprehensive application of multi-disciplinary knowledge with professional knowledge as the core. Moreover, there is a growing need for cross-border and cross-border knowledge. For example, the research on Intelligent wearable textiles requires core textile knowledge combined with multi-disciplinary knowledge such as chemistry, electronic information and ergonomics. The new engineering construction of textile specialty is to strengthen the cultivation of students' innovative consciousness, engineering practice ability and cross-border integration ability.

Reporter: where do textile graduates work?

Guo Jiansheng: the textile major complies with the development trend of modern textile, emphasizes the cross combination of textile discipline and other disciplines, so that the students can have a solid technical foundation of textile specialty and a wide range of interdisciplinary knowledge, so that the graduates of textile engineering have broad employment prospects and can be employed in all links of the whole textile industry chain Considering the work of process design, production quality control and performance testing, it can also be engaged in production management, trade management and other aspects, and can be engaged in teaching and scientific research in Colleges and universities after further education.

The employment rate of textile engineering graduates has been maintained at a very high level. Although affected by the epidemic situation this year, the professional employment rate remains at a high level. For example, the employment rate of textile graduates of Donghua University has reached 96%.

Reporter: what does it mean for textile major to pass the engineering education certification?

Guo Jiansheng: textile majors have been certified in engineering education since 2016. So far, 13 majors have passed the engineering certification. From "engineering oriented" to "engineering oriented", we should pay more attention to the cultivation of students' professional ability. If a school's textile specialty has passed the engineering certification, it means that the professional education of the textile specialty and the knowledge, quality and ability of the graduates have been recognized by the industry. At present, the Washington Agreement has 21 members, including the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia and so on. Professional diplomas from engineering education programs are mutually recognized in schools in these member countries or regions.
