Yao Qizhi was born in Shanghai, China on 1946. Because of his parents' work, he grew up in Taiwan Province province, China. After entering the school, Yao Qizhi showed extraordinary intelligence and achieved the best results. 2 1 year-old successfully entered Harvard University. His teacher glashow is the winner of 1979 Nobel Prize in Physics.
Under the careful guidance of teachers, Yao Qizhi grew up at lightning speed. 1972 received a doctorate in physics from Harvard University. He is eager for knowledge and is no longer satisfied with one subject. The next year, he began to study for a doctorate in computer science. While studying, he also took time to work as a teaching assistant in the mathematics department of MIT. Cattle? Words.
What's life like in Yao Qizhi after graduation? Open it? Generally, famous universities in the United States are rushing to ask him to teach. 1998, the United States elected him as an academician of the National Academy of Sciences, which is a great affirmation for every scholar. In 2000, Yao Qizhi won the Turing Prize (known as? Nobel Prize in Computer Science? ), today, Yao Qizhi is still the only China scholar who won this honor. When this incident came out, it caused a sensation all over the world.
Just when everyone thought that Yao Qizhi would continue to work in the United States, he announced that he would return to China. In 2004, Yao Qizhi resigned as a tenured faculty member of Princeton University, sold his house in the United States, gave up his annual salary of 10 million yuan, and returned directly to the motherland, bringing back advanced teaching experience accumulated abroad for many years. After his guidance, countless students were suddenly enlightened.
However, when he personally came into contact with the domestic computer field, Yao Qizhi began to worry that the gap between the current domestic computer education level and the first-class foreign universities was too big for him to change this situation, so in the following days, Yao Qizhi personally wrote lesson plans and created the 15 core discipline for Tsinghua students to learn; While constantly contacting foreign friends and seeking help in resources.
Finally, on 20 10, the Tsinghua University-MIT-Chinese University of Hong Kong Theoretical Computer Science Research Center was formally established in Tsinghua University. It is the first joint center established by Massachusetts Institute of Technology in China, and the first joint center established by China universities and top universities in the United States. ? Tsinghua Yao Ban? , ready to go.
Under the leadership of Dean Yao Qizhi, Tsinghua Yao Ban was gradually formed. Of the six graduates, 172 are top talents in the computer field, such as those who are familiar to everyone? Alipay face recognition technology? , jointly developed by Yao Ban gifted teenagers Yin Qi, Tang Wenbin and Yang Mu; And what do you expect? Driverless technology? Yao Ban's geniuses are also actively studying it.
I believe that in the near future, they will bring us more surprises, and all these are inseparable from the contribution of Professor Yao Qizhi. He is a man worthy of our admiration.
