The Ministry of Science and Technology recently issued a "yellow card" warning to six stat

On March 27 this year, the Ministry of Science and Technology published the evaluation results of the State Key Laboratories in Engineering and Materials in 2018 through its official website. This evaluation is undoubtedly a "big test" for laboratories in the field of engineering and materials in China, and the relevant results have also aroused the attention of all parties.

The official evaluation involved 43 state key laboratories in engineering and 21 state key laboratories in materials. The ratings were divided into three grades: excellent laboratories, good laboratories and renovation laboratories.

Being able to enter "excellent laboratories" or "good laboratories" not only proves the strong strength of these academic institutions themselves, but also adds "points" to the image of major universities or scientific research institutes as supporting units, while several academic institutions ranked as "rectification laboratories" have aroused more discussion.

Among them, there are three "renovation laboratories" listed in the engineering field, namely the National Key Laboratory of Rolling Technology and Continuous Rolling Automation of Northeast University, the National Key Laboratory of Mechanical Drive of Chongqing University and the National Key Laboratory of Transmission and Distribution Equipment, System Safety and New Technologies.

There are also three "renovation laboratories" listed in the field of materials, namely the "State Key Laboratory of Silicate Building Materials" of Wuhan University of Technology, the "State Key Laboratory of Pulp and Paper Engineering" of South China University of Technology and the "State Key Laboratory of Crystal Materials" of Shandong University.

There are six "rectification laboratories" in the above two fields from five universities. Among them, Chongqing University has two laboratories under its flag, and Shandong University and Northeast University, which are among the "two first-class" universities, have one laboratory to be rectified.

According to Wenhui. com's previous report, the period of rectification of "rectification laboratories" is 2 years. Two years later, the Ministry of Science and Technology organizes experts'on-site inspection and rectification results. The results of laboratory evaluation passed by the inspection are good, and the laboratories that have not passed the inspection are no longer listed in the National Key Laboratory sequence. Laboratories that fail to pass the evaluation, fail to participate in the evaluation or withdraw from the evaluation halfway are no longer included in the National Key Laboratory sequence.
