Focus on the quality of the topic.
The Ministry of Education and Training is currently drafting a Circular stipulating regulations on potential research groups and strong research groups in higher education institutions to solicit expert opinions.
One of the key focuses is improving the quality of scientific research, shifting from an emphasis on quantity to effectiveness and tangible value.
According to the draft, the Ministry of Education and Training plans to set the converted score for achieving the strong research group criterion at 100 points for social sciences and natural sciences; and 150 points for engineering and technology.
Specifically, points are allocated based on the quality of scientific research products. Each article published in a journal listed in the Web of Science (WoS) or Scopus database, within the top 0.1% worldwide , is worth 20 points.
