Research on the Construction of a “Dual-Teacher” Type Faculty Training Mechanism for Applied Undergraduate Tourism Majors

This paper conducts an in-depth study on the cultivation mechanism of the "dual-teacher" type faculty in applied undergraduate tourism programs. By analyzing the key issues currently present in the construction of dual-teacher teams in tourism majors at applied universities, including imbalanced structure, singular evaluation standards, unreasonable assessment and promotion mechanisms, outdated construction ideas, lack of practicality and industry relevance in teaching processes, and insufficient financial support, etc. Six improvement strategies are proposed from different aspects: First, optimize the faculty recruitment mechanism by actively absorbing talents with rich tourism industry experience; Second, refine teacher evaluation standards by incorporating dual-teacher achievements into the certification system; Third, adjust the teacher assessment and promotion mechanism by including both academic and practical capabilities in the assessment system; Fourth, innovate the faculty construction approach by integrating dual-teacher training into faculty development plans; Fifth, enhance the teaching process by increasing dual-teacher courses and project training funds in conjunction with industry-education integration; Sixth, strengthen the financial support mechanism for dual-teacher training by increasing financial support while ensuring the rationality and effectiveness of the funds used.
