台灣創新的基礎仍待國會多多支持
由這幾天的趨勢,看起來台灣的疫情在指揮中心拼命防堵之下,只要大家維持社交好習慣的配合,應該有機會控制下來。真的是天佑台灣,在如此險峻條件下,我們守起來了!台灣屢屢展現在一堆人士的唱衰中,堅挺屹立,實在要更有信心面對艱困的未來以及不斷地挑戰。
當然,光是信心並不夠,面對未知的將來,還是要有更多準備才行。我們都習慣講見賢思齊,讓我們來看看科技的強權,美國,最近做了什麼?
上個月初(六月八日),在台灣正為疫情及疫苗之亂所困之際,美國國會通過了非常重要的《美國創新與競爭法案》。這個法案也號稱是拜登政府上任最重要政策之一。當時,因為台灣疫情緊繃,似乎沒有多少人特別關注,頂多是講一下說,美國發現半導體很重要,特別訂定專法及經費要加強推動等等。事實上,這是一個非常關鍵且重要的科學基礎紮根計畫,大體而言,這個法案有數個特點:
ㄧ、將大家熟知的美國國家科學委員會(National Science Foundation)改為國家科學及技術委員會(National Science and Technology Foundation),兩位副主委,一管科學,一管技術。法案中甚至特別強調出,技術副主委的重要職責之一是,Increasing federally-funded research and development to achieve national goals related to economic competitiveness, domestic manufacturing, national security, shared prosperity, energy and the environment, health, education and workforce development, and transportation。這與我離職前向蔡總統建議的,將科技部改制為國家科學與技術委員會,走向完全一致。科技不能只是自己專注研發,必須前接人才教育,後接經濟發展能力,這是科技時代的必要趨勢。
二、未來五年內(2022-2026),選定十項科學與技術項目(如附資料),預定至少投入1100億美元以上,交由新的NSTF用於協助高教及研發機構,針對選定項目做基礎及前瞻研究。展現美國面對未來科技的謹慎和視野,唯有回到基礎的科學根本,才能帶領人類向前跳躍,找到更多創新機會。
三、再度強化STEM教育的重要,未來五年提撥至少五十億美元,用於強化人才培育的STEM教育。STEM教育這幾年在教育界也是很響亮的口號, STEM指的分別是,Science(科學)、Technology(技術)、Engineering(工程)、Mathematics(數學),正是為來人才走近高科技的必備基礎訓練。但在台灣,STEM 不只在國教中被弱化,更在未來高教的選材上被邊緣化,據說,未來甚至於,大學端的理工生醫等重要學科的入學考試中,根本被放生!台灣十年、二十年後,高科技的人才來源岌岌可危!
對國家長程的未來那麼重要的法案,在拜登政府和國會成員上任短短不到一年內完成立法程序!當然,這也可以看成是美國全民的鼎力支持,才能讓法案順利通過。
台灣的國會、台灣的政府,我們的國會、我們的政府當然也應該做得到,也應該看得到。這不是一兩年內會有大變化、或大政績的工作,但是不做,台灣在未來的競爭力將逐年慢慢減弱。但是,無論是政府、國會,他們的力量還是來自全民的支持,唯有台灣能有一股力量支持,督促政府、國會去思考這些長程競爭力的必要工作,政府、國會才能從每天焦頭爛額
的政治爭執中跳脫出來。
美國選定的十大重點項目:
The United States Innovation and Competition Act of 2021 (USICA), formerly known as the Endless Frontier Act, passed into law on 8 June 2021. It authorizes $110 Billion for basic and advanced technology research over a five year period. It includes investment in:
1. Artificial intelligence and machine learning
2. High performance computing, semiconductors, and advanced computer hardware
3. Quantum computing and information systems
4. Robotics, automation, and advanced manufacturing
5. Natural or anthropogenic disaster prevention
6. Advanced communications technology
7. Biotechnology, genomics, and synthetic biology
8. Advanced energy technology
9. Cybersecurity, data storage, and data management technologies
10. Materials science, engineering, and exploration relevant to the other focus areas

This exhibition offers the public a fascinating insight into contemporary art’s most recent practices and processes such as a ‘Grand Design’ home evolved by a hoarder, an oozing conversation with the earth, a system of tunnels, angry letters about Gillingham’s Samurai sent to Medway council, a Dockyard worker’s fall down a well as sculpture, personal Facebook data becomes food, a dream-like exploration of the car industry, hand movements translated into Fibonacci sound, an autobiographical feature length film made on a mobile phone and a performance where the rules of tennis are applied to an exam.
The Degree Show’s aim is to encourage audiences to explore the potential of Medway as a dynamic hub for art, with the School of Music and Fine Art as a major conduit for these activities, positively impacting on the community and offering imaginative suggestions and visionary strategies for cultural regeneration.
As well as involving students from Kent, and across the UK, this year’s Degree Show exhibitors include student artists from Iran, Thailand, China, Russia, Italy, Cyprus, Mexico, Hong Kong, Isle of Man and Ghana.
The Fine Art Degree Show exhibition catalogue features texts by academics across a range of University of Kent Schools: Emily Rosamond, Grant Pooke, Simon Smith, Howard Griffin and Rebecca Hobbs.
