OBJECTIVE： To provide reference for the improvement of Pharmaceutical Equipment & Workshop Design teaching. METHODS： Task-driven teaching was adopted， CIDO engineering educational model was referred to， task was designed from the conception to run with task-based； theoretical and teaching exploration and practice was carried out by cross-learning of individuals and groups， applying of pilotscale experiment platform， developing course design and forming evaluation. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS： It changed the traditional teaching method that emphasized on class teaching to make students participate in multi-task learning， so that students can better grasp the equipment selection， understanding and application of workshop design in pharmaceutical process. The method gives full play to students' initiative and creativity and it is conducive to students’ comprehensive ability for adapting the development of pharmaceutical industry.
