Abstract:

In order to extend innovation and entrepreneurship education and practice, cultivate the students' innovation and entrepreneurship ability, improve undergraduate education quality, and further promote the reform of innovation and entrepreneurship education, a project called "National College Students' Innovation and Entrepreneurship Training Program" has been carried out in Nankai University. In addition to details of the chemical discipline, methods for integrating science and education, as well as integrating theory with practice have been taught in the college of chemistry. In this program, undergraduates were not only guided to actively participate in scientific research training, but also to apply their innovative results in practice. A unified system of mutual complementarity and mutual promotion between "scientific research feeding into teaching" and "teaching supporting scientific research" has been realized. In this paper, a typical example of undergraduate students participating in this training program is introduced. Details from the preparation to the specific implementation process of the program, including difficulties, experiences, and successes of the project are shown, with the hopes of sharing our experience with other undergraduates majoring in chemistry and helping them improve their innovative projects.
