Hometown and childhood (1971~1990)
I spent the first 19 years of my life in Tianjin,
a big harbor and important industrial
city in North China. I treasured my golden childhood although during those
days I even can not eat meat every day.
My education during childhood
was mainly from my parents and my grandparents. I
inhabited the born interest to science
from my mother, which made me to take the
path to investigate the nature of
world.
Elementary School (1978~1984)
My elementary school is Chang Sha Road Elementary School
in Tianjin. Although
this school is not famous, I still met some excellent teachers. I still
benefit a lot from
their education. From there, I realized that the reputation of a school
does NOT equal
to the educational quality.
Middle School and High School (1984~1990)
I spent 6 years in Yaohua
High School in Tianjin, which is the best one. There I
attend the 6th Olympic Competition in Physics and won the 3rd prize. My
director is
Mr. Zhongkai Zhao and I met some other excellent teachers such as Mr. Xinyue
Lu,
Mingyao Chen, etc. I also met my best friends there: Mr. Yigang Lu and
Lin Bo. I really
miss them very much.
Undergraduate (1990~1995)
I attended the Physics
Department at Peking
University
in 1990, the best physics
department and the best university in China. Maybe you do not agree with
me. So
contact me and I will give you the sound proof of it. I got B.S. in physics
in 1995.
My classmates of Class 90
are all smart lovely guys. I am also a member of the
Alumni
of Peking University (Overseas).
Graduate Study in Physics (1995~1997)
I studied physics in the Department
of Physics and Astronomy
at University
of California at Irvine for
two years. I got MS in physics in 1997
while I passed the qualification with honor. Upon my arriving at
UCI, two professors
won the Nobel Prizes in physics and chemistry respectively.
Graduate Study in Electrical Engineering (1997~1998)
I transferred to the EECS
Department at University
of Michigan to continue my
education in 1997. EECS at UM is ranked as top 5 in USA. However, the work
as a
research assistant there was really hard: I was so busy that I almost had
no time to
think. Therefore, I decided to quit my Ph.D program and found a position
in Motorola.
