Innovative Approaches in Art Vocational Education: Exploring Industry-Academia Collaboration and Internationalization

Abstract

This study focuses on the innovative pathways of art vocational education, with an emphasis on exploring models of industry-academia collaboration and international cooperation. Through case analysis, questionnaire surveys, and interviews, the study examines successful experiences in domestic and international art vocational education, and develops innovative curricula in line with practical needs. The research findings indicate that developing a curriculum system closely aligned with market demands, establishing a long-term management institution for industry-academia cooperation, and exploring international cooperation models are crucial for enhancing the quality of art vocational education. The study demonstrates the depth and breadth of industry-academia cooperation through practical cases, such as the involvement of corporate mentors in teaching and student participation in corporate projects. It also proposes specific strategies for international cooperation, including the development of international curricula, the construction of an international faculty, and the expansion of international horizons through international expos. The research outcomes are of significant importance for improving students’ vocational competitiveness and international vision, and provide theoretical support and practical guidance for the reform and development of art vocational education.
