A primary objective of college English curriculum teaching is to cultivate and enhance students’ ability to use English for cross-cultural communication. However, currently, the integration of cross-cultural communication in college English teaching commonly faces issues such as overemphasis on basic knowledge, lack of innovative teaching methods, insufficient curriculum resources, limited cross-cultural interaction, and imperfect teaching evaluation. These significantly restrict the improvement of students’ cross-cultural communication skills. To address this, this paper conducts a related analysis and research on the significance, current status, principles, and paths of integrating cross-cultural communication into college English teaching. The aim is to further enhance the effectiveness of this integration, thereby better supporting the enhancement of students’ cross-cultural communication awareness and capabilities. This serves as a reference for relevant practices.
