Abstract

This study addresses the long-standing disconnection between innovation and entrepreneurship (I&E) education and career planning in higher education institutions, exploring practical paths for their in-depth integration. By analyzing the intrinsic link between innovation literacy and career development, this research constructs a multi-dimensional integration framework covering curriculum systems, guidance models, and practical platforms, including embedded curriculum modules, interdisciplinary projects, and on- and off-campus training bases. Practice shows that this path effectively deepens students’ career identity and stimulates their innovative and entrepreneurial behaviors, with institutional policy coordination and resource integration ensuring implementation. In the future, a dynamic evaluation and social feedback loop should be established to keep the integrated education system responsive to social needs and achieve long-term improvement in educational effectiveness.
