Construction of a Postgraduate Teaching System with Deep Integration of Innovation and Entrepreneurship Ability Cultivation for Microelectromechanical Systems Major

Abstract

Strengthening the cultivation of the innovation and entrepreneurship abilities for postgraduate students is a practical need for the country to implement the innovation driven development strategy, and also an inevitable requirement for establishing an innovative country. This paper discusses some problems faced by the cultivation of the innovation and entrepreneurship abilities for postgraduate students. Based on the research on the construction of the curriculum system of postgraduate students majored in Microelectromechanical Systems (MEMS) in Southeast University, P.R. China, this paper presents the ideas and plans for the construction of the teaching system integrating the cultivation of innovation and entrepreneurship abilities. By promoting the implementation of this plan, the discipline of MEMS in Southeast University has made some achievements in the cultivation of innovative and entrepreneurial talents. A survey indicates that 37.7% of the postgraduate students from the discipline of MEMS expressed a willingness to start their own businesses within 5 years after graduation. At the same time, over 35.9% of the postgraduate students stated that they have certain or good innovation and entrepreneurship abilities and potentials. This can provide useful reference for the cultivation of innovation and entrepreneurship abilities of postgraduate students in other universities.
