Abstract

Intercultural competence (IC) is one of the top important competencies in modern general education. However, in higher vocational education, the emphasis on IC is weak; the research is not deep and wide enough, and the IC cultivating system is still lacking. The gap between the expectation of intercultural competence of the students and the reality of higher vocational education is wide. To narrow this gap, this study tries to discuss the current situation of IC cultivating in higher vocational colleges and how to construct the IC cultivating system from the general education perspective.
