Abstract:In order to ameliorate the problems, which are definitions of objects not clear, choice of evaluation criteria inappropriate, and limitation of evaluation methods etc. in previous studies, this paper begins with a clear definition of engineering science and technology talents, combining qualitative as well as quantitative method, and established an evaluation index system for engineering science and technology talent.The system consists of two parts: the construction of index model and the establishment of index weight. The index model, containing the acquisition of evaluation index, elaboration of the evaluation content and the establishment of evaluation standard, is based on literature and the interviews of 15 engineering talents and relevant leaders; while the establishment of the index weight is bolstered by 587 questionnaires and the application of Analytic Hierarchy Process and Delphi method.
