In the history of public health, space has evolved through several stages driven by shifts in concepts of disease control. The history of public health is summarized by George Rosen in six phases: Origins (before 500 CE), Middle Ages (500–1500), Mercantilism and Absolutism (1500–1750), Enlightenment and Revolution (1750–1830), Industrialism and the Sanitary Movement (1830–1875), and the Bacteriological Era (1875–present). By integrating architectural sociology—a temporal lens examining the interplay between architecture, individuals, and society—this study investigates how architects historically responded to public health challenges, offering critical insights for contemporary healthy habitat design. Architecture not only addresses survival needs but also materializes societal consciousness. The progression of health-related cognition (e.g., germ theory), behavioural norms (e.g., hygiene practices), infrastructure systems (e.g., sanitation networks), and scientific advancements collectively redefined spatial paradigms. Architects constructed temples, thermae, lazarettos, Beitian Yangbingfang (charitable infirmaries), anatomical theaters, quarantine hospitals, tenements, mass housing, and biosafety laboratories. These cases exemplify the co-evolution of “Concept” (disease control ideologies), “Technology” (construction methods), and “Space” (built environments). By synthesizing centuries of public health spatial practices, this research deciphers the dynamic interplay among “Concept, Technology, and Space”. Leveraging historical patterns, we propose a predictive framework to refine future spatial strategies in anticipation of emerging health crises.

In the great practice of long-term revolution, construction and reform, the red gene created and developed by the CPC is a noble belief and noble emotion that has been continuously precipitated and inherited in the blood and struggle of countless people throughout the country, and has been deeply rooted in the blood and soul of the people of the CPC. Against the backdrop of the continuous development of modern education, integrating the red gene into the daily ideological and political education work of college students requires a clear understanding of its practical significance, and establishing the basic principle of integration based on the red gene, further promoting reform and innovation in inheriting and promoting the red gene in universities, and comprehensively enhancing the ideological and political awareness of college students, Provide a strong talent force for China's socialist construction.

In higher education, mental health education is a complex task that involves many educational factors. From the perspective of psychological education, the basic tasks and value pursuits of university mental health education and curriculum ideological and political education are the same. Both are student-centered, providing a basic guarantee for the integration of the two. Currently, some universities are facing issues such as the need to clarify the concept of "psychological education", the trend towards value neutrality in mental health education, and the need to improve the quality of the psychological education team. In response to this situation, universities should integrate educational factors, provide clear value guidance, strengthen integrated education, improve the overall quality of the education team, continue to promote the ideological and political construction of psychological health education courses in universities, and achieve new breakthroughs.
