The curriculum arrangement is the core of the teaching plan. The teaching content of schools and the knowledge structure of students are essentially determined by the curriculum system which is whether perfect or reasonable. Talents' cultivation quality is further determined by it. With the violent development of tourism industry, the tourism higher education of China has made an enormous achievement and has brought up a large number of outstanding talents for this industry. At the same time, we also find that compared with the relatively ripe tourism majors of those developed countries, the major in tourism management of our country starts later and we still have a lot of deficiencies in the arrangement of curriculum system. This paper uses the experiences of Japan's tourism higher education for reference so as to guide and adjust the development of China's tourism higher education.The paper tries to compare the tourism undergraduate curriculum system of China with that of Japan systematically and deeply. At present, I plan to present a striking contrast to Sino-Japanese tourism undergraduate curriculum system to from this newer perspective of the undergraduate curriculum system. The main content of the paper can be illustrated as follows. At first, the paper begins with era background and explains that the necessity and the studying value of the comparative study between the tourism undergraduate curriculum system of China and the tourism undergraduate curriculum system of Japan. In the second place, in terms of pedagogy, it expounds that the theoretical foundation of the comparative study of curriculum system. Moreover, the paper analyses that the objectives of the undergraduate curriculum systems of four representative colleges of Sino-Japanese tourism majors, the current situations of the undergraduate curriculum systems of four representative colleges of Sino-Japanese tourism majors, and the characteristics of the undergraduate curriculum systems of four representative colleges of Sino-Japanese tourism majors and it indicates that the existing differences between the tourism undergraduate curriculum system of China and the tourism undergraduate curriculum system of Japan. It also probes that the reasons why these differences are produced and how these differences influence the developing students. At last, in relation with our country's economic requirement and social requirement, the trends of Science and Technology as well as the actual condition of tourism industry, the paper shows that Japan brings the enlightenment to China in five aspects of the curriculum objective of tourism major, the curriculum content of tourism major, the curriculum structure of tourism major, the curriculum execution of tourism major and the curriculum organization of tourism major in order that we can explore the scientific, reasonable, internationalized and localized curriculum system in the flourishing upsurge of our country's tourism undergraduate education and that we can strengthen the vitality of the tourism undergraduate education of China.The paper adopts many methods such as comparative research, literature analysis, sampling investigation, case studies, qualitative analysis and induction, etc. First of all, according to the big frame of paper, it uses the comparative method in the study of Sino-Japanese tourism undergraduate curriculum system. Secondly, I also consult a large number of books and literatures and choose four more representative tourism universities or colleges between China and Japan. Moreover, I carry on an investigation into the tourism undergraduate curriculum systems respectively, describe and analyze the differences between two countries thoroughly.
