Abstract

The National University Metallographic Skills Competition, a prestigious event in the field of higher education, has made remarkable progress over the past decade. The National College Students Metallurgical Skills Competition was originally a college student competition jointly initiated by Tsinghua University, Beijing University of Science and Technology, Tianjin University, National University of Defense Science and Technology, and other universities [1]. It has been included in one of the competition items in the national general university
discipline competition rankings. This competition has not only elevated the standards of practical skills among students but has also played a
