Objective: To observe the application effect of the new model for graduate education in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) basic disciplines. Methods: A total of 56 graduate students enrolled in the TCM basic disciplines at Guangxi University of Chinese Medicine, including the 2019 and 2020 cohorts, were selected as the research subjects. The teaching methods and evaluation criteria were reformed for the 2020 cohort (observation group), while the 2019 cohort was taught using the existing teaching model (control group). DREEM scale was used to diagnose the problems existing in the medical education environment, and the self-made simple teaching effect evaluation scale was used to investigate the satisfaction of students with the teaching effect and the help to themselves. Results: Compared with the control group, the students’ perception of teachers, students’ academic self-perception, students’ perception of environment, students’ social self-perception, and the total score of DREEM scale in the observation group increased significantly (P < 0.05). The teaching satisfaction and self-help satisfaction of the observation group were both 92.86%, which were significantly higher than those of the control group, and the differences were statistically significant (P < 0.05). Conclusion: The innovative model that combines innovation with inheritance in the education of graduate students in TCM basic disciplines can effectively improve the medical education environment and enhance the overall satisfaction of these students.
