Innovation and entrepreneurship education is the new trend of the world education development and reformation. It brings great influences and impacts on educational system educational concept、talents development and other aspects of our country's colleges and universities. As the new founded Open University, its teaching model is long-distance tuition which is based on internet and its students are adult learners. These two points are different from general colleges and universities. Does it make sense for Open University carrying out innovation and entrepreneurship education?
