To promote the in-depth integration of industry and education and jointly build a new platform for practical education, a delegation from the School of Materials and Chemistry at the University of Shanghai for Science and Technology (USST), including Deputy Party Secretary Dong Xiaoliang, Vice Dean Li Shengjuan, young faculty member Song Wenliang, and graduate student Kang Dandan, recently visited RFK (Shanghai) Biotechnology Co., Ltd. The two sides engaged in in-depth discussions on talent cultivation, curriculum development, and competition collaboration.
The delegation was warmly welcomed by RFK Vice President Zhang Yeli, Teaching and Research Director Shi Jinghui, Academic Affairs Director Zhang Chen, and Academic Supervisor Wan Ying. Vice President Zhang Yeli stated that RFK has been deeply involved in the field of skin management and health, actively aligning with the national vocational standard system, and has already collaborated with multiple schools to jointly cultivate talent. RFK adheres to the "1+1+N+2" talent cultivation concept, which integrates posts, courses, competitions, and certificates, and is committed to setting a new benchmark for the deep integration of vocational education and industrial development.
During the discussion, RFK representatives detailed the company’s practical achievements in formulating vocational standards, co-building curricula, and supporting skills competitions. They emphasized that RFK actively responds to the national call for high-quality development of vocational education and has deeply collaborated with numerous universities and vocational colleges to innovatively construct the "1+1+N+2" talent cultivation model that integrates posts, courses, competitions, and certificates.
Vice Dean Li Shengjuan introduced the development overview, disciplinary features, and talent cultivation achievements of the School of Materials and Chemistry. She highlighted the school’s strengths in teaching and research and expressed the intention to deepen school-enterprise collaboration, jointly cultivate talent, and serve the industry. She hopes to collaborate closely with the enterprise in building a comprehensive system for integrating "posts, courses, competitions, and certificates," promoting the linkage between internships and employment. She also suggested that the enterprise strengthen cultural integration and career guidance for students during the initial stages of their employment to support their career development.
Vice President Zhang Yeli expressed the hope that, taking advantage of this visit, RFK and USST’s School of Materials and Chemistry would engage in closer collaboration in areas such as co-building professional courses, establishing internship bases, and promoting synergistic research and development, jointly cultivating high-quality technical talent to meet industrial demands.
This visit not only enhanced the school’s understanding of cutting-edge technologies and enterprise needs in the industry but also provided students with a broader platform for practical experience. The two parties preliminarily reached a cooperation intention and will actively promote collaboration in areas such as internships and practical training, joint project applications, and targeted talent cultivation.
In the future, the School of Materials and Chemistry will continue to leverage its disciplinary advantages, partner with high-quality enterprise resources, and jointly explore new models for the deep integration of education, technology, and talent, cultivating more innovative talent for the high-quality development of the national new materials industry.
