Abstract: In order to grasp the development trend of innovation and entrepreneurship education and explore the relevance of academic research and policy orientation on innovation and entrepreneurship education in China, literature from domestic academic journals in the field of innovation and entrepreneurship education from 2010 to 2019 is collected, hot topics are identified through LDA theme model, and the theme evolution path is analyzed in combination with the time dimension. At the same time, the word frequency analysis tool (SATI) is used to extract the focus of national policy in the decade and it is compared with the focus of literature research and their correlation is analyzed. The results show that the domestic literature on innovation and entrepreneurship education focuses on the construction of measurement index system of innovation and entrepreneurship education effect, the construction of college students’ entrepreneurial ability model and the exploration of talent training mode. In the decade, China’s literature research hotspot has a certain correlation with the focus of national policy, and it is compatible with the development stage of innovation and entrepreneurship education in China and meets the current development requirements, but it lacks guidance for national policy making.

Key words: innovation education, entrepreneurship education, theme evolution, LDA, word frequency analysis
