This paper reports an overview of engineering curricular reform based on the integrated and holistic approach of the CDIO education frame work at Shantou University. A design-directed structure was devised to re-plan curriculum of all the five programs of the College of Engineering. To address the special need for ethics, integrity and professionalism associated with engineering education, EIP are prefixed to the initiative to the get EIP-CDIO. Initial piloting and applications show potential for success.
