This paper examines the pivotal role of virtual experiments in cultivating top innovative talents, using the “Bioinspired Superhydrophobic Interface Exploration and Design” virtual simulation experiment at Beihang University as a case study. The study shows that well-designed virtual experiment courses significantly enhance students’ practical skills and innovative abilities. This paper analyzes the integration of virtual experiments into the curriculum and highlights their positive impact on fostering students’ scientific research thinking, teamwork, and hands-on skills. The findings demonstrate that virtual experiments not only overcome the limitations of traditional experimental teaching but also stimulate students’ innovative potential through interdisciplinary integration and realistic scenario simulations, ultimately contributing to the development of top-tier talent with international competitiveness.
