Abstract
The integration between entrepreneurship education and specialized engineering education is a key issue in higher education. This article summarized the research and practice of innovative and entrepreneurial engineering application-oriented talents training pattern for vehicle engineering in Wenzhou University. Deep integration between innovative & entrepreneurship education and specialized engineering education are composed of the theoretical teaching system, the practice teaching system, the combination of production and research, the entrepreneurship education culture system, and the incubation platform. Course content is optimized through the integration of teaching, scientific research, and social quality resources. Through project-based case teaching and the guaranteed mechanism of the integration of production and education, the content of innovative and entrepreneurship education is permeated to the specialized engineering curriculum. Graduates in the last three years indicate that the reform on specialized engineering education was effective and worth to practice.
