Abstract Having developed cultural quality education for 20 years since 1995, many universities began to independently explore the reform of undergraduate cultivation mode with value orientation of quality education and general education. Cultural quality education and general education will accelerate each other and they also have gone through the stages of launch and promotion, reform and exploration and further deepening and improvement. At present, general education has shown some new development trends, such as general education elective courses start to change from the number increasing to quality improvement, the connotation of general education curriculum is expanding, various universities have formed cultural quality of “second class” with three characteristics-the series, highlevel and specialization. Under the guidance of the quality education concept, some universities take the lead to conduct the general education reform of professional cultivation mode and so on. In the future, general education and cultural quality education must keep pace with the times in the two aspects of theory and practice and make innovations in terms of the undergraduate education concept, personnel training mode, management system and other aspects.
