Recently, the National Office for Philosophy and Social Sciences announced the list of proposed projects for the 2024 National Social Science Fund Annual Projects.

Notably, Theoretical Economics and Applied Economics have a total of 8 proposed projects, the best performance in the university's history; and the Sports Science project is the first approved project in this field for YUFE.
Previously, the university held a mobilization meeting for the "Three Major Funds" project applications. The Division of Science & Technology Administration worked closely with various schools and departments, planning ahead, implementing refined management and precise services, coordinating project application management, providing personalized application consultations, creating a strong research atmosphere, and stimulating teachers' research motivation. Multiple rounds of "National Social Science Fund Project Argumentation Meetings" were held, inviting many internal and external experts to provide "one-on-one" guidance on project applications. The application teams worked closely together, repeatedly arguing and revising the applications in terms of project topics, research methods, research content, and innovations. With the joint efforts of all teachers across the university, the number of proposed projects and the approval rate have once again reached new historical highs.
