Abstract: The new engineering is the direction of the engineering education reform proposed based on the new requirements of national strategic development, the new situation of international competition, and the new requirements of setting high moral standards and cultivating talents. The new engineering construction has proposed new goals and new requirements for the construction of the material discipline laboratory and the talent team. The article explains the historical reasons and connotation characteristics of the new engineering, explores the idea and thought for the laboratory construction of material discipline with the new engineering as the opportunity, and proposes specific path and measures of the material discipline laboratory in the context of new engineering. In response to the existing challenges in the experimental talent team of the material discipline, the article identifies measures and methods suitable for the experimental talent team construction of materials discipline in the context of new engineering. The aim is to provide theoretical basis for the higher education reform, traditional engineering laboratory reform, and the construction practice of new engineering. It is also committed to offering strategies for strengthening the laboratory construction and implementing the overall cultivation of the new engineering talent team.
