Abstract: Equine Production is one of the important professional courses for undergraduates majoring in animal science in agricultural universities and colleges in traditional horse breeding areas. This course is a combination of theory and practice. Based on the current setting status of Equine Production, we analyzed the commonly observed difficulties during the teaching process of this course in universities and colleges, and explained the necessity of conducting the ′industry-university-research′ cooperation teaching mode. Orienting towards the demand for professional talents in the horse industry market and aiming to improve the undergraduates′ practical skills and the quality of education and teaching, College of Animal Science of Xinjiang Agricultural University constructed an ′ industry-university-research′ cooperative teaching mode suitable for Equine Production in combination with the practical experience of other related courses of the college by establishing teaching staffs with ′double teaching-ability′, reconstructing curriculum content, reforming teaching methods, and building practical platforms. This cooperative teaching mode has been laying the foundation for cultivating high-quality and complex applied talents in horse industry that met the requirements of the new era.

Key words: Equine Production, ′industry-university-research′ cooperation;, teaching
