Current situation and developmental countermeasures for sports engineering education in China

To speed up the building of sports engineering education specialty in Chinese sports institutes and universities, this paper, based on documentation and survey, makes an analysis of the current situation of sports engineering education specialty in China. The results show: (1) China lags behind the developed countries in sports engineering education; and the setting of sports engineering specialty in China is still a blank. (2) It is of much consequence to speed up the establishment of sports engineering discipline in China. Therefore, the structure of sports scientific research teams should be improved greatly and the level of physical education of institutions of higher learning in China be raised as well. (3) Developmental countermeasures should be put forward to optimize the setting of physical education curriculum, expand the cultivation of sports personnel, and reform physical education patterns in colleges and universities in China.
