China To Help Sichuan Province In Building Western Science City
An official document states that China will help the cities of Chongqing and Chengdu in Sichuan Province develop into “western science city” and a hub for science and technology innovation with significant national impact.

Twelve government agencies, including the Ministry of Science and Technology and the governments of Sichuan Province and Chongqing Municipality in southwest China, jointly released the document.

According to the document, the science city’s start-up zones will be the current sci-tech parks in the cities of Chengdu, Chongqing, and Mianyang. Efforts will be made to hasten cluster development and create a cooperative innovation network.

The document outlines the centre’s primary goals, which include creating a number of top-notch innovation platforms and research hubs and assembling a group of renowned universities, institutions, and cutting-edge businesses by 2025 with the intention of dominating innovative research in fundamental fields like material science and nuclear science.

The document outlines specific goals to reach by 2025, such as spending more than 5% of the regional GDP overall on R&D and generating more than 80 high-value patents for every 10,000 people.

By 2035, the western science city will be transformed into a comprehensive science hub that will draw leading scientists from all over the world, produce significant scientific discoveries, and propel industries into the top echelons of the world value chains.

The Age of Enlightenment marked the beginning of materials science‘s intellectual development as scientists started to use analytical methods from chemistry, physics, and engineering to comprehend early phenomenological observations in metallurgy and mineralogy. Materials science drive innovation in both research and industry in everything from aerospace to medicine.

The interdisciplinary field of materials science encompasses engineering applications, the physics and chemistry of matter, as well as industrial manufacturing procedures. Modern society is heavily reliant on advanced materials, such as lightweight composites for more efficient vehicles.
