Abstract: Based on the data of city level in our country, using the spatial econometric model, empirically the influence of urbanization on the path and intensity of the urban industrial structure upgrade.The results show that the population urbanization on the city industrial structure upgrade has a positive role in promoting, land urbanization hinder the city industrial structure upgrade. Population urbanization through the path of urban total savings has most strong influence on urban industry structure upgrade, followed by the number of science and technology personnel, the influence of the environmental constraints was not significant;Land urbanization through the path of total savings has the most strong impact on industrial structure upgrade, and the direction of the strength is negative, the second is the number of science and technology personnel, the last is the environment constraints.EDA analysis results show that the urbanization of small cities has negatively related with the upgrade of industrial structure; and the urban population urbanization of eastern big cities have the largest positive effect on industrial structure upgrade, followed by the central and western;Land urbanization of big cites in different regions has little effect to promote the industrial structure upgrade.
