Solutions for developing human resources in science and technology

(Baonghean.vn) - During 3 days from June 15 to 17, in Vinh City, the Center for Research and Development of International Science and Technology Integration - Ministry of Science and Technology in coordination with the Department of Science and Technology of Nghe An province organized the Workshop "Barriers in the process of international integration in Science and Technology and proposed solutions: Barriers in human resources in Science and Technology."

Delegates attending the workshop.

According to statistics from the Ministry of Science and Technology, by the end of 2014, Vietnam had 164,744 people participating in research and development activities. In recent years, Vietnam's science and technology human resources have made significant progress, making important contributions to socio-economic development. Some fields in natural sciences (mathematics, physics, theory) have achieved quite high rankings in the ASEAN region,...

Besides the achieved results, Vietnam's science and technology still has limitations such as not having many outstanding and breakthrough scientific and technological works and products at the regional and world levels; the contribution of science and technology to socio-economic development is not clear; the quality of human resources is not high, there is a lack of leading cadres and good experts...

Mr. Tran Quoc Thanh, Director of the Department of Science and Technology of Nghe An province, spoke at the workshop.

Faced with this situation, the demand for human resources in science and technology must be able to undertake research, testing and application of new technological processes in production; improve and systematize traditional technology, improve technological level in all industries, production and service sectors, create new changes in productivity, quality and efficiency of production. Especially export products, improve the competitiveness and efficiency of our country's economy...

At the workshop, a number of scientists proposed solutions to overcome barriers to human resource integration that need to be implemented synchronously, ensuring both short-term and long-term. The basic and long-term solution is to develop the science and technology market, increase the connection between domestic and international markets so that science and technology products are formed from market dynamics, and train leading teams.

At the same time, it is necessary to raise awareness of all levels, sectors and the whole society about the role of science and technology in determining the competitiveness of products, services, enterprises, sectors and countries. Human resource development policies and labor consulting services need to be developed to serve the integration process effectively. At the same time, it is necessary to attach importance to learning from the experiences of other countries.
