Innovation and entrepreneurship education is an important part of higher education. It adapts to the current era background of mass innovation and entrepreneurship, and is also an effective way for higher education to cultivate all-round developing talents. From the perspective of current higher education, many colleges and universities attach importance to basic education, but their cultivation of students’ innovation and entrepreneurship abilities is relatively insufficient; some colleges and universities have a relatively superficial understanding of innovation and entrepreneurship, showing the characteristics of emphasizing theory over practice, and the teaching reform is indeed ineffective. The teaching concept of integration of industry and education emphasizes that enterprises are an important subject in talent cultivation, injecting new vitality into the development of the innovation and entrepreneurship curriculum system for water conservancy majors in colleges and universities. Against this background, guided by the teaching concept of integration of industry and education, this paper explores the important role of strengthening innovation and entrepreneurship education for water conservancy majors, and then deeply explores corresponding teaching strategies, aiming to improve the quality of innovation education for water conservancy students, cultivate their good innovation awareness and entrepreneurship ability, enhance their comprehensive quality, and deliver all-round developing water conservancy talents.
