Abstract

National defense education is an important component of higher education, which carries out specific, universal, and defensive education activities for all citizens on a political, military, and economic basis according to certain national defense goals, according to certain theories, methods, and specific means. At this stage, our country is in a special period of social transformation, social stability has suffered a certain amount of impact, and national defense is the core force that safeguards China's national independence and territorial integrity. Therefore, it is of great significance to strengthen national defense education in colleges and universities. However, influenced by various factors, the national defense concept of Chinese college students has been seriously declining compared with decades ago. Many students lack a basic sense of national defense. Even some students do not realize the seriousness of the problem when they disclose state secrets. The national defense education in colleges and universities and the cultivation of college students’ national defense awareness are urgently needed. This paper mainly analyzes the problems existing in the cultivation of the national defense awareness of Chinese college students and proposes specific solutions.
