A CDIO practice scheme for telecommunication engineering program is described in the paper. In order to cultivate talent engineer, an integrated adaptive curriculum, based on industrial real needs and CDIO syllabus, is developed for telecommunication engineering program. Unlike the traditional bottom-up method, the top-down method is used to develop the new curriculum according to CDIO syllabus. And the double tutor system, one from university and the other is engineer from industry, is developed to educate the student with the personalized education plan. The distinguished students are selected as tutor to help other students study. The problem-based, case-based and project-based teaching methods are adapted in the class and the multiple assessing methods are used in the examination. Three years practice shows that CDIO reform in telecommunication program has succeeded. Students are benefited from this reform and more and more teacher involved in.
