As a graduate student "Xiaobai", how to choose a tutor correctly? The following three points are the key.

First of all, the instructor personally.

Channels for brothers and sisters: As experienced "experienced people", brothers and sisters need to learn from them. You can also go to the research group to ask students inside and outside the group to understand the reality, and at the same time understand the situation of the teachers and sisters in the research group to see if they graduate normally and where they are going.

Tutor thesis channel:

Look at the papers published by the tutor group. If one of them is a student, it means that the tutor is still very reliable.

Second, the research direction and achievements

The research direction of the tutor is closely related to you, depending on whether the research direction of the tutor's article is suitable for you and whether you are interested. Once the tutor is determined, your research direction in the next three years will be unavoidable. You can also look at the grade and quality of articles in recent years; What projects have you done? Are there any additional research funds? If there is a lack of funds, the later research will be more difficult. Therefore, the tutor's publishing level is high and resources are sufficient, so there will be less trouble in graduate school.

Third, the atmosphere of the research group

The atmosphere of the research group is also very important. In a harmonious and mutual-help group environment, my graduate career will be much smoother, which can also reflect the tutor's character and resources.
