Abstract

The innovation and entrepreneurship education play an important role in higher education system worldwide. However, cognition differences in innovation and entrepreneurship of undergraduates (such as grade, gender) are not well explored. In this study, taking undergraduates engaged in environmental science and engineering education from universities in western China (Gansu and Shaanxi provinces) as an example, the questionnaire survey method was used to study the impact of undergraduates with different grades and genders on cognition of innovation and entrepreneurship. Results showed that with the increase of grades, undergraduates’ cognition of the innovation and entrepreneurship was improved, reflecting the improvement of interesting, the degree of support and ability for the innovation and entrepreneurship with the increasing of age. The abilities of independent innovation between male and female undergraduates were significant difference, with the former being lower the latter. This research can provide decision-making basis for the reform of the innovation and entrepreneurship education system in China’s universities and colleges.
