To promote the construction of emergency technology and management majors and strengthen the university talent cultivation of emergency rescue, the majors' characteristics were determined based on the national needs in emergency. Then, a talent development mode for emergency technology and management majors was proposed from aspects of professional ethics, theoretical knowledge systems, and practical technical ability. Firstly, the majors' professional ethics were clarified based on the professional ethics requirements from Teaching Standards for Emergency Rescue Technology and National Vocational Skill Standards for Emergency Rescuers. Secondly, a core curriculum system covering the entire emergency lifecycle was proposed using the PPRR(Prevention, Preparation, Response, Recovery) model including prevention, preparation, response, and recovery. Next, a combination of learning and training, integration of government-industries-research organizations was proposed to advance the cultivation of emergency skills and the enhancement of practical innovation capabilities. Finally, a talent cultivation system was developed from the perspectives of textbooks, faculties, teaching process management, a talent assessment system, and a continuous improvement mechanism. The results indicated that the talent development system integrated with public service and social responsibility attributes, full-cycle work content, disasters, and multi-subjects practical applications. Moreover, the system developed a close connection between talent cultivation and practical work needs and guided for cultivating of high-level applied talents in the emergency field who had moral and professional qualifications and theory and practice capabilities.
