“Siemens Cup” CIMC is a national competition signed by the Ministry of Education (MoE) and Siemens Ltd. China. Since 2006, CIMC has been developed into one of the largest student competitions in the field of industrial automation in Chinawith support of nearly 300 universities and colleges. In 2010, it was included in the Quality Engineering Project funded by MoE.
CIMC aims to promote the education of engineering practice ability in universities and colleges, improve students’engineering interest, engineering accomplishment, engineering design ability, practical ability, engineering innovation and engineering research and development ability. The competition advocates the pragmatic learning style of putting theory with practice and the humanistic spirit of teamwork, and trains students’ comprehensive ability of knowledge to provide practical platform for training high-quality science and engineering talents.
