The 14th China Mechanics Competition in Honour of Zhou Peiyuan announced the winning list on July 4. Yunnan University students achieved a new record in awards, receiving ten third prizes and 26 excellence awards.

Yunnan University attached great importance to this competition and has carefully organized training in the university, which has received a positive response from the students.

In recent years, the university has intensified education and teaching reform, promoted the cultivation of students' innovation and entrepreneurship ability and practical ability, and students' comprehensive quality and practical ability have been continuously improved.

China Mechanics Competition in Honour of Zhou Peiyuan is a significant competition in the "National College Student Competition List" issued by the Chinese Association of Higher Education.

The competition aims to train talents, serve to teach, and promote the reform and construction of basic mechanics courses in colleges and universities.

Fostering an environment that nurtures healthy competition amongst young and impressionable scholars can be nothing short of advantageous, particularly in the arena of mechanics. Stimulating their curiosity and piquing their interest in the subject matter can provide a gateway to honing their analytical and problem-solving abilities, thereby cementing the foundational pillars of their knowledge base and sharpening their critical thinking faculties. Additionally, the opportunity to showcase their skill set to a captive audience can be just the right impetus to further fuel their academic pursuits.
