On The Training And Evaluation Of Undergraduates' Research Ability In Universities Of Science And Technology

In the 21st century era of knowledge economy, the governments and higher education departments of all countries place more and more emphasis on the bringing up and development of undergraduates' research ability which is critical to the national creative ability and competitive power. The common feature of research universities in the world is based on the undergraduate education to foster and cultivate talents, through teaching and learning whose inspiration of scientific research is drawn to produce new scientific research energy.The thesis builds on a set of model of creative talent cultivation for the universities of technology based on the harmony development of knowledge, ability and quality, and education conception.
