On Jan. 28, the National Natural Science Foundation of young teachers' application experience exchange meeting was held  via online and offline at our center. Prof. Desheng Zhang, Secretary of the Party Committee of our center and National Youth Talents, was invited to deliver this lecture.

Based on the application experience of NSFC, Prof. Zhang introduced his own example to young teachers from seven aspects: fund overview, research orientation, field characteristics, direction selection, development path and approval rate promotion. He also put forward that the fund application in engineering field should have clear demand background, clear key problems and innovative solutions. Besides, he emphasized that young teachers should further improve their understanding, practice their internal skills, and attach importance to the quality of application writing. Meanwhile, he reminded us to read the guide carefully, understand the key points of evaluation, and reasonably select the application code before applying.

Eventually, the teachers at  the meeting had a warm exchange and discussion on the relevant questions encountered in the process of writing the application, also the meeting had achieved remarkable results.
