Participating teachers
In recent years, aiming to “cultivate applied innovative talents,” Taizhou University has established a preparation mechanism of “university-level selection— expert guidance—resource support.” The Teaching Affairs Office, in collaboration with departments like the State-Owned Assets Management Office, conducted multiple rounds of refinement for the participating projects, inviting industry experts and renowned teachers for one-on-one guidance. The excellent results in this competition are a concentrated reflection of the effectiveness of Taizhou University’s faculty development and provide valuable experience for experimental teaching innovation in universities across the province. The university will take this as a new starting point, strive diligently and courageously on the journey of high-quality development in higher education, and achieve more in education.
