Objective　To investigate medical students' views on College English curriculum system

teaching methods and their needs for follow-up English courses

so as to provide reference for setting College English curriculum system. Methods　In January 2018

2 000 non-English major undergraduates from Batch 2013-2017 in Xi'an Medical University were surveyed by the questionnaire of College English Curriculum System of Xi'an Medical College released on the website of WJX.com

and the questionnaire data were statistically analyzed in real time. Results　A total of 1 815 questionnaires were collected and the valid rate was 90.75%. It was shown that three top-listed reasons for English learning were to pass CET-4/6 or other English examinations and obtain corresponding certificates (1 366

75.26%)

to prepare for future career (1 093

60.22%)

and to prepare for postgraduate entrance examination (1 060

58.4%). A large proportion of the students expected reading

writing

translation and other skills training and oral practice and cross-cultural knowledge learning

accounting for 78.51% (1 425) and 65.84% (1 195) respectively. 68.76% of the students (1 248) endorsed the necessity of courses on humanistic English or EGAP (English for general academic purposes) in medicine. Conclusion　The current single college English curriculum system and teaching methods can not meet the learning needs of medical students. It is necessary to explore the construction of a multi-level College English curriculum system that highlights the characteristics of medical colleges and meets the needs of different majors under the guidance of College English Teaching Guide.
