Abstract

Carrying out traditional culture education in higher education is not only an important initiative to promote cultural heritage and innovation but also an important means of nurturing young college students. Retracing the development of traditional culture education in higher education in China from a historical perspective will help us to understand its value and significance in the cultivation of young talents in the new era. This paper attempts to review the policy background and history of traditional culture education development in China. Traditional culture education in higher education had undergone a period of confusion and exploration prior to the founding of New China and went through a period of withering and even stagnation up until the 1980s. It was only in the 1990s that it was established and formalised as a subject of study in higher education to meet the increasing demand for spiritual and cultural construction in China’s rapid development. It is now being developed in an orderly manner in higher education in the form of classroom teaching, campus culture construction, and student club activities to promote its comprehensive development. It is now recognised that traditional culture education will play an important role in higher education in China in keeping with the context of the rise of China and the rejuvenation of the nation and to infuse a stronger sense of confidence in students to engage in global exchanges and competitions.
