The construction of professional courses and opti-mization of teaching mode are important ways to ensure the quality of postgraduate training.For engineering postgra-duates,especially for mechanical and civil engineering post-graduates,elastic mechanics and finite element is a core com-pulsory course.This course is difficult to achieve good teach-ing effect by the traditional course teaching method,because of its strong theoretical,many cross-knowledge and high pro-fessional foundation requirements.Case teaching is different from the tradition teaching method which is teaching oriented from teacher to student.In addition,the abstract theories can be visualized through cases,which gives a new method to im-prove teaching effect.In this article,the application of case teaching in course of elastic mechanics and finite element is analyzed.Moreover,the advantage of case teaching in this course is verified by a specific case.In accordance with train-ing objectives,the construction case database of this course is proposed.The reformation of teaching method in this course is of great significance to improve the teaching quality.
