Abstract

The United States is the first country to offer innovation and entrepreneurship education courses and one of the most developed countries in the world. After nearly a century of development, it has formed a complete innovation and entrepreneurship education ecosystem constructed by the government, schools and society from aspects of curriculum system, service support, incentive mechanism and financial support. The innovation and entrepreneurship education in Chinese universities starts late and has a short development time. Although it has made obvious progress, compared with the national innovation and entrepreneurship strategic needs, it should accelerate the pace of deepening reform, transformation and upgrading. This paper focuses on the analysis of the structure of the ecosystem of innovation and entrepreneurship education in U.S. universities, draws on the advanced experience, and takes solving the problems existing in the innovation and entrepreneurship education in Chinese universities as the starting point. It explores how to form the innovation and entrepreneurship education system in Chinese universities and promote the connotative development of innovation and entrepreneurship education in China from the five dimensions of curriculum system, teaching staff, institutional system, financial guarantee and time and space. Chinese universities should overcome the concept deviation, realize the concept of innovation and entrepreneurship embedded in specific disciplines to build ' embedded ' innovation and entrepreneurship education mode. In the construction of the teaching staff of innovation and entrepreneurship education, we should absorb more people with successful entrepreneurial experience, academic background and social resources to engage in part-time teaching. State and local governments should work together to promote the formation of a series of guiding, supportive, subsidizing and preferential policies. The funding sources and guarantee of innovation and entrepreneurship education in universities are not only relies on school itself, but also the three major education implementation subjects. In terms of extracurricular platforms, it is necessary to actively build practice cooperation bases and college students’ Maker Space in universities, and further cooperate with the local government’ s innovation and entrepreneurship industrial park, build off-campus practice platforms. Finally, based on the research results, the paper puts forward the policy suggestions for the construction and further development of innovation and entrepreneurial education ecosystem in China.
