Preface
Under the background of “cultivating internationalized and inter-disciplinary talents for students” in China, it is urgent for local colleges and universities to cultivate the students adapting to economic and social needs. We have tried to implement a training mode of applied talents, which focused on cultivating core professional abilities, building characterized teaching contents, enriching assessment systems, and combining production, teaching and research together. Several courses were conducted serving for this goal, such as“Fine Chemical”, “Separation and Analysis”, “Student Research Training Program”, “Literature Reading and Paper Writing”, incorporating the paper translation part into the teaching contents, which is one of the components for undergraduate thesis. Presentation, group work (talking about the reference related to the BA thesis, find the research problem and figure out the creative point of the paper), and discussion are also designed in the class procedure. The titles for undergraduate thesis were selected according to the requirements of working agencies. Meanwhile, academic database such as “Web of Science” was recommended for retrieval of updated articles to ensure the students keep track of the dynamic of the industry. This book will focus on the curriculum reform and practice for chemistry and related courses, in order to provide ideas and refreence for other teachers and lecturers.

As the co-instructors, Professor Yiping Zhang, Jinzong You devoted a lot of efforts. I would also like to extend thanks to authors contributing to the book chapters, especially Deqiang Qi, Yuzhan Xu, Jin Wu, Zhi Zhou, Mengqian Chen, Jingwang Wu, Ziqi Miao, Miaoran Geng, Xiaowen Li, Yimei Li, Yingqi Pei, Xiaoqing He, Yan Zhang, Juelin Lu, Xiaojing Yu, Suiyuan Jiang, Xuejing Wu, Qianqian Zhou, Chen Zhu, Yang Shen, Yuqing Shen, Xiaohong Ni, Xinlan Chen, Yajing Ge and Xinlu Chen. They offered help on sample characterization, data interpretation, and language improvement of the book chapters.
In case of any inappropriate expressions or mistakes in this book, I am thankful that the readers could give criticism and correction.
