Abstract
In the industrial design industry, innovation and entrepreneurship made by professional and technical talents will become an important trend in the future development of the economy and society. The great changes in the design industry, such as the diversification and complication of design objects, the relatively restricted knowledge structure of design talents, the lack of entrepreneurial experience, and other reasons, have led to the low success rate of industrial design talent entrepreneurship. The purpose of this research is to analyze and explore the effects of integrated innovation design teaching modes and methods of cultivating the innovative and entrepreneurial abilities of industrial design professionals to help industrial design professionals to improve their success rate of establishing new companies. This research also aims to improve the innovative and entrepreneurial ability of industrial design professionals in terms of integrated innovation and design teaching reform by integrating the theories and methods of industrial design professional training links such as the objectives, teaching contents, teaching modes and methods, performance evaluation of innovation, and design education, combining these with the requirements of the innovative and entrepreneurial ability training of industrial design professionals. In this study, the educational reform of integrated innovation design in a specific Chinese university is taken as an example to carry out theoretical research and practical application. The results of this research show that the theory and method of integrated innovation of design education have made significant contributions to the enhancement of the innovative and entrepreneurial ability of industrial design professionals. This research also reveals a feasible direction for constructing an industrial design innovative and entrepreneurial talent training system that adapts to the transformation and upgrading of the design industry. Meanwhile, methods and teaching modes applied in this research can be promoted in relevant or similar majors to make innovation and entrepreneurship education in colleges and universities more professional, stimulate students' entrepreneurial consciousness, and improve students' abilities of innovation and entrepreneurship.
Highlights
In the design industry, innovation and entrepreneurship of professional technical personnel will become an important trend in the future development of the economy and society
The knowledge and ability elements necessary for industrial design professionals to establish new companies are obtained by way of surveys, expert interviews, and other methods, and they are integrated into the training objectives of integrated innovation design education
Industrial design talents do not have deep enough knowledge about engineering technology, resulting in innovative design concepts not being better manufactured by mass production, and they are inexperienced in enterprise management and intellectual property protection so as to become a barrier for them to carry out successful innovation and entrepreneurship
Summary
Innovation and entrepreneurship of professional technical personnel will become an important trend in the future development of the economy and society. The design object expands from the traditional physical products to the combination of hardware and software, service system design, user experience design, etc. These changes have brought both new opportunities and great challenges for the innovation and entrepreneurship of design talents. Interdisciplinary integration and integrated innovation have become an important development direction (Andrei and Pei, 2010; Liu and You, 2018; Zhou, 2020)
