Abstract

As the economy develops, society's demand for high-quality talent also increases. As the primary base for cultivating high-quality applied talent, applied universities need to combine professional education with innovation and entrepreneurship education to create an integrated "professional and innovative and entrepreneurship education" model, explore new ways to cultivate high-quality talent, and provide the necessary talent for social development. This paper focuses on talent development in applied undergraduate universities, combining collaboration theory and innovation ecosystem theory to analyze the necessity of integrating professional education with innovation and entrepreneurship education. The aim is to provide some ideas and methods for applied undergraduate universities to cultivate high-quality applied talent.
