Abstract： In the process of exploring a new type of creative education system, many restricting factors exist. The paper reveals six major restricting factors in the implementation of innovative education in medical colleges and universities: the problem of educational philosophy is not solved, the teaching level of teachers is not high, scientific and technological innovation is out of line with the undergraduate education; creative training for junior students is insufficient; the curriculum and training model is sample and creative education is separated from quality-oriented education. Also, it points out the key points in the promotion of creative education.
