Analysis of the Connotation and Strategies of Traditional Chinese Medicine Cultural Education in Medical Colleges and Universities

Abstract

The culture of Chinese medicine is profound and has a long history, and is an important part of Chinese civilization. Its core values of “benevolence, harmony, refinement and integrity” are of great significance to the ideological and political education and cultivation of humanistic qualities of contemporary medical students. However, the current education and teaching of traditional Chinese medicine culture in medical colleges and universities can hardly meet the needs of today's medical students, and the deepening and upgrading of traditional Chinese medicine culture education is particularly urgent. In order to effectively deal with this challenge, medical schools can combine TCM culture with curriculum ideology and politics, training programs, campus culture construction and social practice, so as to promote students to better understand and practice the spirits of TCM culture.
