Abstract:Taking the documents with the theme of ecological campus research in the Web of Science core collection and CNKI Chinese core database as samples, this paper selected 1953 effective documents from 1996 to 2021. The CiteSpace visual analysis software was used to analyze research status, research context, hot spots and frontier,and sort out the development context and development trend of the research field. It is found that the number of documents issued at home and abroad is on the rise, and more research is mainly focused on the sustainable development of higher education and the management and construction of campus environment. In recent years, the research on performance evaluation and sponge campus is also increasing.Under the background of ecological civilization construction, this paper aims to explore the research progress and main research directions of ecological campus at home and abroad, and provide ideas and references for relevant research and practice in the future.
