In the University’s training objectives, it is explicitlystipulated that students majoring in science and engineering not only need to master scientificknowledge such as mathematics and chemistry, as well as basic engineering techniques, butalso need to understand the development trends of modern engineering [7]. To ensure that theyhave moral integrity and a sense of responsibility in their future careers, and can consciouslyprotect the environment and achieve sustainable development while considering economic andsocial benefits. The University also provides technical ethics and personal value orientationeducation to engineering students, requiring future

As AI becomes increasingly prevalent in our daily lives, student proficiencywith the tool will likely change, inviting more study. Additionally, research could explorecurricular interventions to teach students how to use AI as a learning aid. We are also curiousabout the long-term impacts of ChatGPT usage on student learning trajectories (e.g. do studentsthat use ChatGPT for coding get hired at the same rate, how do they

While these outcomes can spanBloom’s Taxonomy [14], in practice there is a limit to the number of skills students can beassessed (and reassessed) on, so skills based on the apply, analyze, evaluate or create outcomelevels are generally more appropriate.
