Abstract: The structure of pharmaceutical higher education in China needs to be adjusted under the guidance of Xi Jinping’s new development philosophy, especially the concept of coordinated development, in order to meet the demands of the campaign to construct new medical education and to develop in coordination with the pharmaceutical industry. Based on the concept of coordinated development, we summarized herein the relationship between pharmaceutical higher education, pharmaceutical research and the pharmaceutical industry, analyzed the adaptability of pharmaceutical higher education and the pharmaceutical industry, and put forward suggestions for and implemented initially the reform of the pharmaceutical curriculum structure under the guidance of the concept of coordinated development. We hope this paper will, under the new circumstances, provide useful reference for the ongoing education reform of the curricular structure of pharmaceutical higher education and pharmaceutical research coordinated along with the development of the pharmaceutical industry.
