In recent years, Nanning University has intensified efforts to attract high-level talents and send outstanding young researchers to visit universities both inside and outside the region. The university has also established research platforms, optimized incentive systems, and provided high-quality services for high-level talents and young core teachers. It has initially created a high-level project cultivation model that follows the framework of "top-level deployment by the school – coordination by functional departments – implementation by secondary colleges – specific execution by research teams – expert guidance and review". This cultivation model has shown promising results: the enthusiasm of teacher teams in project applications has increased, project quality has improved, project approval rates have increased, project outcomes have become more diverse, and local communities have benefited from the services provided.For the newly established science and technology program projects, the university will strengthen the project management, fund management, supervision, and service, and strive to improve the efficiency of the use of funds to ensure that the projects complete their research tasks on time and in accordance with the quality and produce high-quality results.
