A scientific research topic is actually a scientific research task with specific objectives and requirements.

There are two types:

1. Vertical topics: scientific research tasks assigned by the government, which are published regularly on government websites. What is more impressive is the scientific research tasks that the National Natural Science Foundation, the National Social Science Foundation and the ministries and commissions under the State Council may publish on their websites. People from relevant universities and research institutes all over the country can apply.

2. Horizontal topic: it is mainly the research task put forward by the enterprise to solve the problems encountered in its actual operation. It can be done by organizing its own people or looking for people who have ways in society.
