Abstract Based on the first-hand experiences of teaching international English course of process intensification for undergraduates, we have summarized the characteristic practice in the design of the courses and the innovation of online-and-offline blended teaching mode, by integrating the faculty of chemical engineering at Beijing University of chemical technology and the faculty of short-term foreign experts. Faculty of internal teachers and short-term foreign experts to carry out the construction. In view of the common problems of general education in the universities, such as narrow knowledge of course, low enthusiasm of students, lack of sufficient qualified teachers and dull classroom language, we improve the teaching from three aspects including curriculum content design, teaching mode innovation and ideological education. In an all English teaching environment, the concept and principle of chemical process reinforcement are closely connected with daily life through simple language, and the characteristics of chemical engineering discipline with strong practicability and wide application are displayed. The course can not only enhance students’ enthusiasm for professional learning, but also promote students’ ability to understand professional English, oral expression and communication. It provides a reference for the construction of chemical based general education courses and the training of students with international vision and innovative consciousness to become high qualified and combinational talents.
