Reforming Graduate Curriculum Systems through Industry-Education Integration: A Socially Responsive Approach to Innovation Capacity Development

This study explores a socially responsive framework for reforming professional graduate curriculum systems by aligning them with dynamic industrial changes and innovation demands. Grounded in educational ecology and competency-based theory, the proposed model includes a modular structure emphasizing demand identification, collaborative development, and system adaptation. Beyond improving professional education quality, the framework addresses broader social imperatives—bridging gaps between higher education and labor market demands, promoting equitable access to innovation-oriented training, and supporting the co-evolution of educational institutions and regional socio-economic systems. This research contributes to ongoing discourse on how curriculum reforms can better serve both individual development and societal transformation.
