Abstract :
The cultivation goal of Applied Technology Universities (A.T.U.) is to bring up the production forefront engineer having a good grasp of theoretical basis and skilled technical ability. However culture methods are old. For example graduation examination is writing graduation thesis or project and reply. This method can not reflect students practical technical ability, and influence teachers¿ and students¿ practical activity and the cultivation goal of Applied Technology Universities (A.T.U.). For this reason a new graduation examination model of Applied Technical Universities was put forward in this paper. It was written examination and practical examination. For the purpose of finding out the feasibility, reasonableness, difficult and easy degree, the amount of examination subjects, and improving contents of this examination model it was studied using questionnaire survey in this paper. The result showed that the model was feasible, reasonable, the difficult and easy degree was suitable, the number of examination subjects was modest. But they need to be increased.
