Against the backdrop of new agricultural sciences construction, it is crucial to build a teaching and research system for land science and technology that meets the needs of the new era. This paper focuses on the "Four-in-One" layout concept (synergetic development of teaching, scientific research, practice, and application) and conducts in-depth exploration into the innovative paradigm of the teaching and research system in the field of land science and technology. The study proposes that the core of the teaching and research system should be closely centered on the key concept of comprehensive land management in the whole region, especially serving the national major strategic needs—the planning, implementation, and monitoring & evaluation of projects for the integrated protection and restoration of mountains, rivers, forests, farmlands, lakes, grasslands, and deserts. To this end, the system focuses on developing three core curriculum directions: 1. Application of geographic information systems (GIS) and remote sensing technology, which provides spatial information support for the investigation, dynamic monitoring, and precise management of land resources in the whole region; 2. Territorial spatial planning, which focuses on optimizing the pattern of territorial spatial development and protection, supporting the overall coordination and sustainable utilization of all elements in the whole region; 3. Eco-hydrology, which deeply explores the mutual feedback mechanisms among water, soil, vegetation, and ecosystems, providing a scientific basis for land ecological restoration, water resource management, and the improvement of ecosystem services. By integrating theoretical teaching, cutting-edge scientific research, project practice (especially projects related to mountains, rivers, forests, farmlands, lakes, grasslands, and deserts) and social service applications in these three directions, this study aims to build a land science and technology teaching and research system with clear goals, cutting-edge content, distinct practice orientation, and adaptability to the development needs of new agricultural sciences. It provides an effective path for cultivating compound land science and technology talents with systematic thinking, practical ability, and innovative spirit, and serves the national strategies of rural revitalization, ecological civilization construction, and modernization of territorial spatial governance. This paper can provide certain references for educational reform, curriculum setting, and practical teaching of new agricultural sciences.
