Disciplinary Competitions have emerged as a pivotal avenue for fostering students' innovative capabilities. In the modern educational context, cultivating the innovative acumen of contemporary college students demands the seamless integration of theory and hands - on practice. This paper delves into constructing an innovative practice platform, using the college students' robot innovation competition as its core carrier. By leveraging the 'learning through competitions, teaching promoted by competitions' model, it aims to stimulate students' latent innovative potential. Moreover, this initiative creates a vibrant campus innovation ecosystem. This ecosystem serves to enhance students' engineering practice prowess and their aptitude for interdisciplinary collaboration. The paper further puts forward an innovative quality cultivation strategy centered around robot competitions. The educational efficacy of the competition - teaching integration mechanism is thoroughly verified by incorporating practical cases, like the real - world scenarios and outcomes from the College Students' Robot Competition.
