Chapter 114: Transfer Major

Just when Lin Qianjun reported to the director, Lu Qiujian and Professor Zhang also came to the principal's office. When they saw them coming in, the principal got up from behind the desk and pulled them to sit down in front of the sofa, waiting for the secretary to bring tea.

Then he looked at Lu Qiujian and said, "Oh, I thought I would hire you to stay in school as soon as you graduate and do research while getting a doctorate! Who knew that Princeton would give you a big gift? With a PhD degree from Princeton, you

Are you fully qualified to teach here!"

Professor Zhang is also quite happy. Now even if Lu Qiujian is allowed to study for a Ph.D. in our school, it is difficult to find a tutor! If anyone has the nerve to accept him as a student, he will be laughed at to death if word spreads - even if you look in the mirror, you

Are you eligible to accept a potential Fields Medal winner as a student?

Now that he has a PhD degree from Princeton, academic qualifications will no longer be an obstacle for Lu Qiujian to stay at the school to teach. Now that the doctorate from a famous foreign university comes back, won't the domestic universities welcome him?

"A 20-year-old doctor! That's amazing! I was still studying for my undergraduate degree when you were your age!", the principal praised with emotion. How old was he when he got his doctorate?

"This is a special award for me, not a formal doctorate!" Lu Qiujian said modestly, "Besides, there are many people at my age who have received doctorates. Terence Tao also received his doctorate from Princeton at about this time.

, I actually thought of that!"

"Tao Zhexuan is already twenty-one when he gets his Ph.D., and he is more than one year older than you!" Professor Zhang also knew this young genius quite well. "Besides, he entered the university to attend lectures at the age of fourteen, and at the age of sixteen

It took four years to get my bachelor’s degree, my master’s degree at the age of seventeen, and my doctorate at the age of twenty-one!”

"UCLA can allow 24-year-old Tao Zhexuan to become a full professor. Can our Capital University also make a special case? Well, actually it is not a special case. According to the current recruitment regulations, doctors who have returned from world-class universities such as Princeton will be hired.

It's normal to be a professor!" The principal looked at Lu Qiujian eagerly, "How about it, Xiao Lu? As long as you are willing to stay in school, have your registered permanent residence, house, professional title, your own research group, and research funding... I will take care of it.

It’s ready for you!”

If Capital University wants to become a world-class institution, it can’t do it without world-class masters! Lu Qiujian has made such achievements at this age. How much honor can he create for the school by keeping him at Capital University? How much attention can he attract? Think about it.

It’s so exciting!

"Thank you, principal, for your kindness!" This condition is not unfavorable, but I really can't stay! "But I feel that my current level is not enough, and I want to go abroad for further study after graduation! Let's wait until I come back after completing my studies!

"

"You have already obtained your Ph.D. degree. Whether it is the cracking of the Poincaré conjecture or your papers in the "Annals of Mathematics" and the arxiv website, it is enough to prove that your academic ability has reached the first-class level! Where else should you go for further study?",

Professor Zhang is a little anxious! Will he go back to Beijing Normal University again when he comes back next time?

"If I continue studying, I'm afraid I won't choose mathematics anymore. I plan to change my major!" Lu Qiujian revealed his plan, "I plan to transfer to the physics department. +◆"

This is also necessary to complete your own plan. Mathematics is the foundation of all subjects, but the foundation is still the foundation. If you want to apply it, you still have to rely on physics, chemistry... these subjects; as the saying goes: Mathematics is a fire, lighting up the lamp of physics.

; Physics is a lamp, lighting the way to chemistry; chemistry is a road, leading to a pit of biology; biology is a pit, burying science students. Although this sentence is a bit biased, it also illustrates the relationship between the various disciplines of science.

"Change your major?!" This almost gave Professor Zhang a blow. He couldn't help but ask again and again, "Why do you want to change your major if you are good at mathematics? Since you are talented in mathematics, you should cherish it. It is not necessarily necessary to change your major again.

There will be achievements now!"

"I feel that my research has reached a bottleneck now! So I want to change fields!" Lu Qiujian gave the reasons he had thought about. "And the relationship between mathematics and physics is also very close. For example, Edward I met at Princeton -

Professor Witten, although he is a winner of the Fields Medal, his main research direction is physics; I have asked him and Professor Freeman-Dyson for letters of recommendation, and they also encourage me to develop in this area!"

Professor Zhang's eyes twitched when he heard this. You are only twenty years old and you are talking about the bottleneck! Then who are we people? Hearing this, the principal said, "How about this! After you graduate...oh no,

From the beginning of the next semester after the report meeting, I will continue to study mathematics and study physics with the professors of our school!"

At this point, the principal straightened his back and said, "Haha, I'm not boasting. The physics department of our school is second to none in the country and is ranked among the top 20 in the world! It's much better than Shuimu University! As long as you are willing to stay after graduation.

School, I can find academicians to help you with individual tutoring!"

In China, perhaps only a few top universities such as Beijing Normal University, Shuimu University, and Hua University of Science and Technology can offer such conditions! There are academicians from other schools who are not willing to offer sacrifices to Bodhisattvas, so how dare they bother others for such a trivial matter! However,

Then again, if there is such a student, they will probably be happy to tutor him, right?

"Starting next semester, I plan to prepare for the report first, and then sort out some of my ideas in mathematics! I will study some basic knowledge in physics by myself for the time being!" Although the physics department of Capital University is good, it is still different from Europe and the United States.

There is a certain gap, not to mention that according to his plan, after starting the physics research, he will use a big thing, and that thing is in Europe.

"As for the choice of school, I prefer European schools! I am very interested in some of their school's equipment and several masters!" Lu Qiujian said apologetically, "So I can only decline the principal's kindness for the time being, but I

I will try my best to publish as many articles as possible in the next semester!"

"And I will come back from Europe in two or three years. By then, I will have the opportunity to cooperate with my alma mater! No matter where I go, I will remember that I am a student trained by Beijing Normal University!" Lu Qiujian said respectfully

Bowed respectfully to the principal and Professor Zhang.

The two of them looked at each other and sighed regretfully. It seemed that Lu Qiujian's plan to stay in school after graduation was ruined! I hope he can remember what he said today and not forget his alma mater when he returns to China.
Chapter completed!
