Abstract  Over the past 40 years, the major scientific research projects on the history of science and technology have played a significant role in such aspects as academic research, discipline building and talent fostering. In July 2020, the Institute for History of Natural Sciences of the Chinese Academy of Sciences convened the“Major Scientific Research Projects on the History of Science and Technology” Symposium to review the planning, preparation and implementation of four completed major projects, namely, the compilation of The Complete Collection of Traditional Chinese Arts and Crafts, The History of Science and Technology in China, China Canon: Volumes of Mathematics, and The Series of Studies in the History of Science and Technology in Modern China. According to the reports made by the persons in charge of the aforementioned four projects, putting into play the strengths of collective effort and pursuing academic innovation are among the successful experience of their projects.
