‘REMOTE SENSING PLUS’ TRAINING MODE OF INNOVATION AND ENTREPRENEURSHIP TALENT NURTURING THROUGH COLLEGE STUDENT COMPETITIONS

Abstract. Innovation leads the development of technology and society, so the position of innovation and entrepreneurship training to nurture innovative talents is very important. The paper explores the ‘trinity’ innovation and entrepreneurship talent training model of ‘promoting learning through competition, education through competition, and innovation through competition’, focus on high level innovation and entrepreneurship competitions, enhance the stickiness among colleges, educators, students, and social enterprises, and enable students to participate in extracurricular academic activities that are highly consistent with the needs of the industrial market. To achieve this goal, School of Remote Sensing and Information Engineering of Wuhan University puts forward a ‘remote sensing +’ training model. Through the two-year practice of this model, 136 students from different schools and majors participated in the training of the ‘Remote Sensing +’ Innovation and Entrepreneurship Center in Wuhan University, and won three gold awards in the China's largest innovation and entrepreneurship competition. Due to the characteristics of cross-integration of remote sensing science and technology itself, it has played a supporting role in innovation education, integrating other multi-specialized knowledge, and providing more entrepreneurial and employment opportunities for students of related majors.
