Report title: Why, Can, and How Research?– personal experience sharing with beginners

Report time: 10:00 on March 24th Offline report location: Mathematics Museum 201

Host: Associate Professor Wang Ting

Abstract:

In this information age, IT industry associates, e.g., senior undergraduates, masters, and junior PhDs, may have questions like why do research, can I do excellent research, and how to do high quality research. We would like to share personal understanding on these questions with young and energetic researchers. Firstly, research will enhance our capability, which is totally different from learning from classrooms. Secondly, most people (if not all) in high education sector can do good research, even excellent research. Thirdly, we need strategies in carrying on research. We humbly expect this talk will bring young friends confidence and directions to explore their infinite future.
