Abstract

This paper makes an analysis on the major problems for innovative and entrepreneurship education (IEE) in underdeveloped western regions of China, and outlines a set of implications for local governments and universities. The authors suggest that a more practical and flexible cultivation system rooted in regional contexts should be established for bringing a radical change to the backward IEE in western China. It is important to implement the “4C” concepts in IEE, namely cross-culture, cross-region, cross-discipline and cross-specialty through strengthening international cooperation and mutual regional support, integrating the IEE into the university curriculum, and building a four-dimensional nexus via partnerships between universities, industries, governments and families. While the paper is written mainly from the perspective of underdeveloped western regions of China, the discussion allows for generalization, and thus should be applicable to the development of IEE in other nations facing similar problems.
