Chongqing Issues 15th Five-Year Plan for Integrated Education, Technology, and Talent Development

The Chongqing Municipal People's Government issued the '15th Five-Year Plan for Integrated Education, Science, Technology, and Talent Development (2026-2030)' on August 3, 2026, and published it on August 27. The plan aims to basically build an innovative strong city by 2030, with R&D intensity reaching 3.25% and STEM graduates accounting for 60% of bachelor's degrees. It explicitly creates application scenarios for 'AI + education' and builds a national AI application pilot base for human resources.

The plan directly provides policy scenarios for AI education products in Chongqing, especially the 'AI + education' application. The STEM graduate target will drive universities to adjust majors and curricula, affecting AI talent supply. The increase in industry-education consortia from 36 to 41 offers more platforms for AI training. Schools and companies in Chongqing will align AI education product strategies with the plan's scenarios. Universities will accelerate STEM enrollment and curriculum reform, impacting AI talent cultivation.
