Abstract

This paper explores the reform path of innovation and entrepreneurship education in applied universities under the integration of science and education. It first reviews the development process of innovation and entrepreneurship education both domestically and internationally, identifying existing problems in China's applied universities such as unequal resource distribution, insufficient system construction, and lack of experienced teaching staff. Theoretical analysis and case studies demonstrate the significance of integrating science and education in improving teaching quality through knowledge updating, practical ability enhancement, and innovative thinking stimulation. Based on these findings, the paper proposes specific reform strategies including building diversified teaching models (case teaching, project-driven learning, interdisciplinary collaboration), strengthening faculty development (introducing industry experts, teacher training), and improving support service systems (entrepreneurship incubation platforms, industry-university cooperation mechanisms). Finally, it outlines implementation paths and safeguard measures at both government and school levels, emphasizing the importance of policy support and resource integration. The study aims to provide valuable references for enhancing the innovation and entrepreneurship education system in China's applied universities and cultivating high-quality talents with innovative spirit and practical abilities.
