Chapter 159 Preparation for Defense
Under normal circumstances, college students must pass the exam, pass the exam, or complete the credits allowed to graduate before they are allowed to participate in the graduation thesis defense.
Shen Qi's actual situation is slightly different.
After identification, Shen Qi, who has reached level 7 in mathematics, has at least the academic level of undergraduate graduates of Yan University’s mathematics department.
The appraiser is Shen Qi himself.
The editor-in-chief of Mathematics Guide also agreed with this view.
Then, Shen Qi is fully capable of participating in the undergraduate graduation defense of the Department of Mathematics in advance. He has published several papers. Most undergraduates cannot publish a SCI+4 Chinese journal paper until they graduate.
I won’t mention published papers, just practice.
Shen Qi also has two unpublished papers in his hands, one from Professor Sun's Higher Era 48 questions and the other from Professor Lu's graduate school topic.
Shen Qi went up to the second floor and first found Sun Erxiong: "Professor Sun, I want to participate in the undergraduate defense of the Department of Mathematics within this semester. I know there is such a rule, thesis system."
"This day came a little faster, slightly faster than I expected." Sun Erxiong sighed, but he didn't make a fuss: "So you will take the paper "Analysis of Generalized Nonlinear Complementary Problems of Linear Inequality Constraints" to participate in the undergraduate thesis defense?"
"Yes, thanks to Professor Sun. This topic was given to me by you." Shen Qi said sincerely, and suddenly seemed to realize something extraordinary: "Professor Sun, you gave it to me in October last year. Could it be that you have arranged everything long ago?"
Sun Erxiong smiled deeply: "Shen Qi, you know now, who is the best to you, right?"
"The professor is indeed a professor, and he can see it so far." Shen Qi finally saw through everything, "It doesn't matter what credits are, if the thesis defense is successfully passed."
"But you have to go through this process," Sun Erxiong said, and then asked again: "If you get a bachelor's degree in mathematics in your senior year, what are your plans?"
"Study for a master's degree or a doctorate." Shen Qi answered without hesitation.
"Where can I study for a doctorate?" Sun Erxiong asked.
"I still want to go to the world's top mathematics hall and continue to study and further study." Shen Qi said, "After I finish my studies, I will return to China to serve and strive to build a prosperous, democratic socialist country."
"Princeton?"
“I have this idea.”
"Do you know how to get to Princeton?"
"Go by plane."
Sun Erxiong gave Shen Qi a blank look: "Nonsense! I'm asking you, do you understand the application process and requirements for a Master of Mathematics and PhD in Princeton?"
Shen Qi: "I have checked some information online and have a general understanding, but it may be inaccurate."
"I know quite well. I once had a student who got an offer from Princeton's Department of Mathematics."
"Professor Sun, are you talking about Yunwei and Yun Shen?"
"It's not just Yun Wei, of course, he is the best one. Shen Qi, don't be too ambitious first, and you will pass the undergraduate degree defense of Yan University's Mathematics Institute. You will definitely not be able to go to Princeton this year, and you will leave next year as soon as possible."
"I don't want to leave so early. There are still many things in China that have not been dealt with. I said before that I should get a double degree in undergraduate studies. I'm just going to get a damn thing. It's the second semester, and I haven't touched physics much. If I don't go abroad with more than two degrees, I always feel that I lack a sense of security." Shen Qi has his own ideas about medium- and long-term planning. Speaking of this, there is no need to hide it from Professor Sun.
Sun Erxiong supported Shen Qi, Yan University’s number one in mathematics in the country and Princeton’s number one in mathematics in the world.
If students are ambitious to study in the world's top institutions, the teacher will never stop them, but will try his best to assist.
If Shen Qi wants to get a Princeton number offer, in addition to his excellent academic performance and passing English in China, another important application criterion is the recommendation letter from Yan University College. The higher the status of the recommender in the international mathematics community, the better.
Of course, there is another shortcut, that is, Shen Qi recently published papers in four major international mathematics journals, or gave speeches at high-end mathematics forums in the international field.
But this is almost impossible, so do it step by step and don't be impatient.
Shen Qi spent two days to modify the "Analysis of a Type of Boundedness of Strong Singular Integral Operators Along the Homogeneous Curve", uploaded the electronic version to the "Mathematics Guide" submission system, and printed 5 copies on paper versions and handed them to Sun Erxiong.
The basic operation of participating in the thesis defense is that the respondent provides the thesis defense draft at least 15 days in advance and submits a formal written application.
After receiving the application from the respondent, the school will organize a special response team.
This work is specifically responsible for the Academic Degrees Committee of the School of Mathematics. The organization appointed Director Long, the boss of the Department of Mathematics, as the judge of Shen Qi's undergraduate thesis defense group.
The defense group must include at least three members. As for whom to join the group, Director Long will arrange it himself.
“The pressure is very high, the pressure is very high.”
Shen Qi learned that his application for a bachelor's degree in mathematics has been approved, and the specific time for the defense has not been determined.
The official notice from the School of Mathematics is that Shen Qi will definitely be given a chance within this semester.
"If you can't even pass the undergraduate defense, it's a big embarrassment."
Shen Qi had this concern. Even if "Analysis of Bounded Ability of Strong Singular Integral Operators Along the Homogeneous Curve" was included in the "Mathematics Guide", the defense team also has the right not to pass the defense.
"Have a lot of pressure, vent your energy and go run!"
Shen Qi came to the school track and field team and ran.
As he ran, his 5,000 meters and 10,000 meters were the strongest level in the team.
The intermittent emergence of mathematical inspiration is not the inspiration every time you run.
The sports bag contained pen and paper. After the fleeting mathematical inspiration was produced, Shen Qi recorded the inspiration at the side of the track and field training ground.
The mathematical inspirations recorded recently are relatively chaotic, non-European, number theory, topological, algebraic geometric, and in all directions, and cannot form a complete system.
Regardless of whether it is useful now, Shen Qi will record it first and then think about it slowly later.
It is worth recording 100 ideas, even if only one can eventually form a topic.
At the end of March, Shen Qi received a formal notice from the defense team of the School of Digital Academy: "Appoint your undergraduate thesis defense meeting on April 10, please be prepared."
"Here, finally." Shen Qi was both excited and nervous.
"Awesome, Shen Qi, I got a bachelor's degree in mathematics from Yan University in one year, and I have to go to heaven." Zhou Yuan said enviously.
"Don't have a breast, I haven't passed yet!" Shen Qi was very careful and very cautious.
"If the defense is passed, you will go to graduate school, right? So we won't see you next semester?" Zhou Yuan realized a serious problem, and Shen Bu Wang was leaving!
"I didn't leave so quickly." Shen Qi shook his head, "I can only leave with confidence after everything is arranged."
Chapter completed!
