Launch of the NSFC Excellent Young Scholars Forum

摘要

In 2012, the National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC) launched the Excellent Young Scholars (EYS) Program. As its name suggests, this program aims to recognize and support excellent young scholars in the fields of science and engineering. This program is similar to the NSF Career Award in the United States, and the competition is very tough: only a very limited number of applicants can get through. Each awardee will receive a fund of one million CNY for a three-year term.With such generous support, awardees are expected to do more excellent research and grow up quickly as distinguished young scholars.
