With the development of nationwide innovation activities, design education has again attracted people's attention. In order to cope with the development and changes of the times, practical suggestions are put forward for the development of the training mode of design undergraduate education in China. The work aims to compare and analyze the present situation of the training modes of design talents at home and abroad, from the following aspects: training objectives, education consciousness, training methods and means. The weak effectiveness of the existing training modes of design talents in China and their weak relevance to the external environment, lack of overlapping and integration guidance of knowledge, low consciousness and degree of multidisciplinary collaboration in the teaching process and other problems are revealed. Some suggestions on the training mode of design undergraduate education in China are put forward from three aspects: setting up self-examination and adjustment mechanism of training mode oriented by ability training; setting up groups of interdisciplinary curricula to improve the guidance of comprehensive application of knowledge; promoting school-level, school-enterprise and international collaborative curriculum to strengthen the collaborative consciousness.
