Pharmaceutical separation engineering, as a professional course in pharmaceutical engineering, holds significant importance in cultivating students' professional competencies. The curriculum system at Shenyang Pharmaceutical University was established in 2019, and has been continuously improving over the past 6 years in terms of teaching content and methods. Based on the course characteristics and current teaching situation, the authors explore teaching reform from aspects of optimizing teaching content, improving teaching methods, and perfecting assessment methods, aiming to enhance teaching quality, strengthen students' ability to solve practical problems, and cultivate high-quality talents meeting the development needs of the pharmaceutical industry. Through introducing practical cases, adopting diversified teaching methods, and constructing a comprehensive assessment system, the study seeks to stimulate students' learning interest and enhance their comprehensive qualities, providing references for teaching reform in pharmaceutical separation engineering courses.
