Your institute has long been responsible for major national scientific and technological research projects, provincial and ministerial natural science foundation projects, military industry supporting scientific research tasks and national natural science foundation projects. It is the main national task in the field of precious metals in my country. bearer. In 2003, it was recognized as the "National 863 Program Achievements Industrialization Base" by the Ministry of Science and Technology. In 2008, it was approved by the Yunnan Provincial Department of Science and Technology and included in the "Yunnan Provincial Key Laboratory of Precious Metal Materials" cultivation plan. "New Materials Research and Production Base" was approved by the State Administration of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense. In 2011, the "State Key Laboratory of New Technologies for Comprehensive Utilization of Rare and Precious Metals" was approved by the Ministry of Science and Technology. It has 2 provincial-level technological innovation talent teams: "Provincial Innovation Team for Precious Metal Catalytic Technology" ”, “Provincial Innovation Team of Rare and Precious Metals and Low Dimensional New Materials”.
Your institute began to recruit master's degree students as early as the early 1960s. After the country restored the postgraduate system in 1981, it successively established "Nonferrous Metal Metallurgy", "Materials Science", and " There are 3 master's degree programs in "Industrial Catalysis" and a doctoral degree program in the first-level discipline "Materials Science and Engineering". In November 2002, the National Postdoctoral Management Committee approved the establishment of a postdoctoral research workstation, and began to recruit postdoctoral researchers in 2005. From the 1980s to the present, our institute has trained more than 100 postgraduate students under the unified recruitment system. Over the years, we have cultivated a team of researchers with a solid foundation and high quality for the research and development frontline, laying a solid foundation for the development of the precious metals industry.
