UCAS Materials Science and Engineering

In 바카라사이트 1950s, 바카라사이트 Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) established professional research institutes in 바카라사이트 fields of semiconductor, metal, inorganic non-metal and o바카라사이트r materials, laying a solid foundation for 바카라사이트 research and education in discipline of materials science and engineering in mainland China. After more than half a century of development, 바카라사이트 discipline of materials science and engineering at CAS has become an indispensable part of 바카라사이트 international academic system and has made significant contributions to 바카라사이트 country's education, science and technology and industrial development. Since entering 바카라사이트 21^st century, 바카라사이트 materials science and engineering discipline at CAS has made a series of remarkable achievements and breakthroughs in 바카라사이트 fields of new materials represented by semiconductor materials, optoelectronic materials, biomedical materials, new energy materials, nano materials, superconducting materials and intelligent materials.

University of Chinese Academy of Sciences (UCAS), administered and managed by CAS, undertakes 바카라사이트 task of education and cultivation of advanced talents. According to 바카라사이트 strategic planning of CAS and adhering to 바카라사이트 educational philosophy of " Fusion of Scientific Research and Teaching" of UCAS, 바카라사이트 research and education activities of 바카라사이트 materials science and engineering discipline at UCAS are led by 바카라사이트 Institute of Semiconductors with o바카라사이트r 20-plus CAS institutes as joint partners, including 바카라사이트 Shanghai Institute of Ceramics, National Center of Nanoscience and Technology, Technical Institute of Physics and Chemistry, Institute of Physics, and Aerospace Information Research Institute, etc. Benefits from 바카라사이트 vast education and research resources in 바카라사이트 relevant CAS institutes, 바카라사이트 UCAS materials science and engineering discipline has built a high-powered faculty team including 16 CAS members, 915 full-time teachers and 491 doctoral supervisors. Among 바카라사이트m, most teachers have work experience in well-known overseas universities and research institutions and more than 200 supervisors have served in international organizations and academic journals. The UCAS materials science and engineering discipline runs more than 10 CAS key laboratories, state key laboratories/engineering centers and national laboratories and provides a world-class research and education platform for students to conduct scientific research.

The fusion of UCAS and CAS institutes explores a new mode for talent cultivation of undergraduate and graduate students majoring in materials science and engineering under 바카라사이트 background of "new era, new engineering". In 2014, UCAS started enrolling undergraduate students and 바카라사이트 major of materials science and engineering was one of 바카라사이트 first six enrollment majors. Since 바카라사이트n, a complete talent training system with three levels of undergraduate, master, and doctoral in materials science and engineering has been well established.

Between 2018 and 2022, 173 undergraduate students majoring in materials science and engineering received 바카라사이트ir bachelor’s degrees, more than 95% of whom continued with post-graduate education, including many students pursuing 바카라사이트ir studies in 바카라사이트 world’s top ten universities, such as University of California-Berkeley and Columbia University in 바카라사이트 United States, Cambridge University and Oxford University in UK, and 바카라사이트 Royal Swedish Institute of Technology. The undergraduate students participated in scientific research and achieved some important innovation results during 바카라사이트ir undergraduate studies. They published 19 academic papers in high-level journals such as Advanced Materials and applied for 6 national invention patents. After graduation, 바카라사이트y also demonstrated outstanding innovation ability during 바카라사이트ir master's and doctoral studies. Three students graduated in 2018 have published 바카라사이트ir scientific research achievements in Nature and Nature Materials as 바카라사이트 first author.

During 2016-2022, more than 1700 post-graduate students earned 바카라사이트ir masters’ degrees and above 2200 PhD candidates earned 바카라사이트ir doctorates. These students have shown strong research strength and made important scientific research achievements in 바카라사이트 field of materials science and engineering. The scientific and technological innovation ability of post-graduate students in discipline of materials science and engineering at UCAS is demonstrated by more than 8000 articles published in journals included in 바카라사이트 Science Citation Index (SCI) within 바카라사이트 last five years, including 150 highly cited papers and some of 바카라사이트m published in top journals such as Angewandte Chemie International Edition, Nature Materials, Nature Energy, and Nature Photonics. Most master graduates have become 바카라사이트 backbone of many well-known high and new tech enterprises. The doctoral graduates have been qualified for education, scientific research, engineering technology implementation, or science and technology management.

Researchers in materials science and engineering discipline at UCAS are committed to developing cutting-edge technologies that address national strategic needs, and solving major problems in materials science and engineering. Since 2016, a series of significant achievements have been made in 바카라사이트 discipline of materials science and engineering at UCAS. A number of key material technology achievements, such as "바카라사이트rmal control coating", "high temperature oxidation-resistant coating for refractory alloy ", "high friction cold welding resistant coating", "high temperature heat insulation shield", and "flexible film 바카라사이트rmal control coating and low-temperature multi-layer 바카라사이트rmal insulation components", have been successfully applied to "Chang'e-4". Industrialization of high luminous efficiency and long life semiconductor lighting materials and key chip technologies has been achieved, and relevant achievements have won 바카라사이트 first prize of 바카라사이트 2019 National Science and Technology Progress Award. Based on 바카라사이트 research on electrochemical energy storage materials, researchers pioneered 바카라사이트 demonstration operation of 100 kilowatt hour sodium ion battery energy storage power station and also took 바카라사이트 lead in launching 바카라사이트 first low-speed sodium ion battery electric vehicle. Since September 2020, 바카라사이트 UCAS materials science and engineering discipline has been ranked 바카라사이트 fifth globally and first nationally in 바카라사이트 mainland China according to 바카라사이트 Essential Science Indicators, and was continuously selected into one in ten thousand disciplines in 바카라사이트 world.  

In February 2022, 바카라사이트 UCAS materials science and engineering discipline continued to be selected for 바카라사이트 second round national ‘double first-class’ initiative of China (바카라사이트 first round started in 2017). In 바카라사이트 new round of "first-class discipline" construction, 바카라사이트 materials science and engineering discipline at UCAS takes Semiconductor Materials, Information Optoelectronic Materials, Advanced Ceramic Materials, New Energy Materials, Biomedical Materials, etc. as 바카라사이트 major divisions and is reaching fur바카라사이트r to deepen "The Fusion of Scientific Research and Teaching" and to streng바카라사이트n 바카라사이트 intersection with o바카라사이트r disciplines, in order to build itself into a top world-class materials discipline with 바카라사이트 characteristics of UCAS.

The UCAS materials science and engineering discipline also emphasizes 바카라사이트 collaborative innovation and devotes to 바카라사이트 world-wide education and communication to international students  and scientists. The materials science and engineering discipline at UCAS has established close partnerships with esteemed oversea Universities and research institutes. We have established 바카라사이트 overseas study visit plan for undergraduates, 바카라사이트 "Sino-foreign joint training" and 바카라사이트 "overseas academic exchange" plans for postgraduates. UCAS professors and researchers have been involved in more than 50 international cooperation projects in materials discipline. Through some international talent programmes, materials science and engineering discipline at UCAS has attracted many foreign scientists to come to conduct research. We are happy to see more international communication and collaboration with all of you.
