Abstract

Against the backdrop of the national push for industry-education integration, the professional growth and practical skill enhancement of foreign language teachers in local universities have emerged as critical issues in educational reform. Focusing on local universities in Liaoning Province as the research subjects, this study employs qualitative research methods, specifically semi-structured interviews and textual analysis, to investigate foreign language teachers’ actual participation, challenges encountered, and development pathways within industry-education integration contexts. Findings reveal that despite teachers’ positive perceptions of industry-education integration, their engagement level and effectiveness remain constrained by factors such as underdeveloped university-enterprise collaboration platforms, singular competency structures among teachers, and insufficient incentive mechanisms. Based on these insights, the article proposes policy recommendations for optimizing the professional development of foreign language teachers in local universities, aiming to enhance their adaptability and capacity to serve regional development.
