2. Activities of Student Associations
1). Activities of students’ Associations-SCI-TECH
Robot Festival
The TJU Robot Festival was founded in 2004, and has become one of the most important competitions among students. As time has passed, it has become an iconic activity of the TJU Student Science and Technology Association. This competition is held once a year, with each taking six months from the release of the theme to the final competition. It has been successfully held 11 times, and provides a science popularization activity about work skills, training and inquiry-based learning.
Intelligent Space Station
Our “Intelligent Space Station” is a series of innovative and creative learning platforms and practices, held by the TJU Student Science and Technology Association. This program is comprised of the integration of multiple subjects and innovation within them all. Through these means, it has offered a great chance for junior students to participate in curriculum practice. It also trains and improves the students’ ability to innovate, while promoting the integration and cooperation of the interdisciplinary team.
Popularization of Science Festival
This program is held on the campus open day of the first term and during the Begonia Festival of the second term every year. The Science and Technology Association, drawn from every college, and the Scientific Club set up around 20 stations to popularize science, demonstrating and introducing knowledge of related fields. It explores new ways to popularize science, so that it allows science and technology knowledge to enter students’ lives naturally.
The Student Science Award & Science and Technology Talents
Since 1999, TJU has carried out the “Project of Science and Technology talents”, and since 2002 we have also given out the “Student Science Award”, which selects 10 winners annually. It aims to encourage students to explore science and technology, and help students to develop a good sense of innovation. The award rewards students who have made significant achievements in academic research, scientific and technological innovation, technological breakthroughs and other aspects related to science and technology.
