Abstract: This paper systematically reviews the research trajectory of curriculum ideological and political education from a bibliometric perspective,constructing a basic research framework to reveal the overall picture and patterns of research in this field.The study uses literature indexed in China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) as the data source and employs tools such as Excel and VOS viewer for frequency statistics of subject keywords,co-occurrence cluster network analysis,and knowledge mapping.Based on high-frequency keywords,a co-occurrence cluster network with six research themes was built.The study finds that curriculum ideological and political education research has formed a relatively complete framework and system,with its core focus on the construction and development of curriculum ideological and political education in higher education courses.The six research themes overlap,forming close connections between multiple disciplines.
