| Abstract | STUDY OF INNOVATION AND TECHNOLOGY IN CHINA RESEARCH BRIEF 2015-3 January 2015 Surveying China’s Science and Technology Human Talents Programs Fan YANG H uman talent is considered the most important resource under the Chinese leadership’s initiative to make China into an innovation-oriented nation. However, despite a growing scientific and engineering talent pool, China faces serious challenges—a lack of high-end, innovative talents, unbalanced structure and distribution of the talent pool, and low investment in human capital. To address these problems, the Chinese leadership has made great efforts, of which the use of talent programs to cultivate and attract promising scientists and engineers stands at the center. However, close examination of the three most important and prestigious national programs—the Recruitment Program of Global Experts (Thousand Talents Program), the National High- level Talent Special Support Plan (Ten Thousand Talents Program) and the Military High-level S&T Innovation Talents Program — and evaluation of their effectiveness reveals unclear results. At present, Chinese S&T talent programs are focused on development and implementation rather than supervision and evaluation. In addition, with a number of major cultural, economic, and political hurdles in the way, China is still far from becoming a world talent power.
