Abstract Taking as samples the data of higher engineering education and the data of industrial development in 30 provinces and cities between 2005 and 2013, this paper calculates the coupling degree and coordination degree of those two and analyzes their interactions from two dimensions of space and time. Finally the paper calculates regional industrial competitiveness using the factor analysis and examines the impact of coupling coordination of industrial development and higher engineering education on regional industrial competitiveness. It is found that firstly, the coupling degree of industrial development and higher engineering education is at a high level, but the coordination degree is not high. Secondly, there are great regional differences in the degree of coordination and the imbalance. Thirdly, this synergistic development between industry and higher engineering education could enhance the regional industrial competitiveness.
