With the continuous advancement of the "Belt and Road" initiative, the number of international students in China has been increasing year by year. To meet the growing learning needs, it is of significant importance to explore and summarize the fully English-medium instructional model tailored to "Belt and Road" international students. This study focuses on the English-medium course teaching model for the Electrical Engineering and Automation major. Through reforms such as curriculum restructuring, the establishment of a team of English-medium instructors, and the extension of practical courses through university-industry collaborations, certain teaching achievements have been made. These measures have not only enhanced the learning outcomes of international students but also provided valuable experiences for the internationalization development of universities.
