The establishment of specialized courses such as those on"Biomaterials Surface and Interface"in the School of Biomedical Engineering helps highlight the unique characteristics of multidisciplinary integration under the background of new engineering and contributes to the cultivation of innovative scientific and technological talents in the subfield of medical devices.This article exemplifies our"theme-based interactive teaching"practice for the postgraduate course"Biomaterials Surface,Interface and Functionalization"in Sun Yat-sen University,which was implemented under the guidance of the"student-centered"educational concept while embracing the"spirit of independent innovation".Principles,techniques and applicationsthat are related to biomaterials surface/interface and surface modification were selected as the entry points of theme-based interactive teaching to meet the diverse individual needs of postgraduates with interdisciplinary background and facilitate classroom interactions that are lacking intraditional"indoctrination-based"teaching.Such innovative educational mode is expected to help realize multidimensional linkages between teaching and learning while cultivating students'core literacy and comprehensive competence.
