Abstract: Industrial development and transformation need to rely on engineering education to provide talent support. In view of the inevitable trend of coal mining technology upgrading to intelligence in Guizhou Province, the mining engineering specialty of Liupanshui Normal University has established a smart mining experimental class. Taking this as an example, this paper introduces the path of building smart mining experimental class in mining engineering specialty of application-oriented local colleges from the aspects of teaching staff, curriculum system, practice base inside and outside the school, etc. In terms of the construction of teaching staff, it includes the optimization of the allocation of teachers' resources, the dynamic optimization of teaching staff, the introduction of specialized talents and the construction of part-time teachers; In the aspect of course construction, different measures can be taken for the existing courses, new courses and original courses with new smart mining content of other majors or colleges of the university; In terms of the construction of practice base, the school mainly builds smart mining virtual simulation practice teaching resources, and outside the school, it cooperates with local enterprises to build a training base.
