From July 12 to 14, the 18th Shanghai College Students Chemistry Experiment Competition and Experimental Innovation Design Competition was held at Jungong Road Campus of University of Shanghai for Science and Technology. Our students won one grand prize in the experimental Innovation design competition and three second prizes in the chemical experiment competition.
The experimental innovation design competition includes three tracks: New innovation experiment, Improved experiment and popular science experiment. Environmental engineering team composed of Wang Siqi and Deng Lijuan from grade 2021 and Zeng Yonghang from grade 2022, under the guidance of teacher Ding Yi, designed the science popularization experiment Kidney of Constructed Wetland Earth - manganese sand iron carbon strong collaboration and won the special prize of the experimental innovation design competition, demonstrating the application of scientific research results in seawater purification.
The chemistry experiment competition adopts a combination of theoretical examination (30%) and experimental operation (70%). The experimental operation includes three groups of Inorganic and Analytical Chemistry, organic chemistry and physical chemistry, and the group of participants is determined by drawing lots on the day of the competition. Under the guidance of teachers Yao Xin, An Liqiong, Zhu Wenwu and Zhang Yuliang, Wen Lie, majoring in Materials Science and Engineering (Grade 2022), Niu Mingzhen and Shen Haizhao, majoring in Environmental Engineering (Grade 2022), both won the second prize in the Chemistry Experiment Competition.
The achievement of this competition comes from the unremitting efforts of all the instructors and the persistence and enthusiasm of the students for the chemical experiment. In the future, the school will continue to improve the training plan, the cultivation of innovative practical ability throughout the entire education and teaching process, constantly consolidate students' basic theoretical knowledge of chemistry and practical operation skills, and strengthen the cultivation of innovation and entrepreneurship awareness.
The 18th Shanghai College Students Chemistry Experiment Competition and Experimental Innovation Design Competition was sponsored by Shanghai Municipal Education Commission, co-organized by Shanghai University Chemistry Experiment Teaching Steering Committee, and hosted by University of Shanghai for Science and Technology. 54 students from 18 universities in the Yangtze River Delta region, including Fudan University, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, Tongji University, East China Normal University, Zhejiang University, Nanjing University, and University of Shanghai for Science and Technology, participated in the 18th Shanghai College Student Chemistry Experiment Competition offline. 78 students from 26 participating teams participated in the final project defense of the 3rd Shanghai College Students Chemical Experiment Innovation Design Competition online.
