Scholar’s Advanced Technological System
Chapter 302 Acquisition of instruments
The Institute of Computing Materials in Jinling needs research-type talent, and people don't grow out of the ground themselves. While short-term needs can be addressed through high-paying diggers, there is no future for institutes without hematopoietic capacity.
In the long run, the ship needs a team of capable researchers to help him with his experiments. He also needs to incubate more talent with the instruments and researchers he buys.
While there is no guarantee that these students who come to him for internships will choose to work at his institute after graduation, it is not a loss as long as they can stay a third.
Ark to ship is not a special comparison of gains and losses in this regard.
Unlike the aims of entrepreneurs in general, he does these things not solely for money, nor for any noble reason. Even if that happens, it's just a by-product of the reaction.
His purest aim was simply to be able to carry out his own research, reveal the secrets of the system and see a more distant future.
And that, by himself, is very difficult to achieve.
In a conversation with Dean Li, Ark submitted a VIP request indicating that, in addition to his intention to recruit a group of doctoral students to participate in the study, he intended to recruit a group of master's and undergraduate students to participate in the project in the form of internships.
After Dean Li reacted to the proposal of the Ark to the school, Xu Academician even agreed to the slap.
The old man himself belongs to the sophisticated “reformist", regardless of whether Kim Dae's controversial "three-and-a-half system” has achieved the desired results, at least reflecting the determination of the school's senior level to try reform.
According to the cooperation agreement between the Jinling Institute of Computing Materials and Jinling University, 30 undergraduate students, 10 master students and 1-3 doctors are admitted to the Institute of Computing Materials for internships each year to undertake basic and ancillary research tasks.
This figure will be further expanded if the methodology proves feasible.
Instead of delaying students' schooling, these internships enhance their understanding of expertise in practice.
In particular, undergraduate students have limited access to the research itself.
And that's exactly why the school documents just came out, and the students in the chemistry hall were very involved.
Especially for the top three and four students who intend to develop into the field of research, the enrolment rate is so high that they eventually have to be screened through the ranking of professional performance points.
As for freshman year sophomores, the Ark also divided a portion of the seats.
While the expertise of the pupils and sisters needs to be strengthened, they are all potential units with a lot of plastic space.
Even if you can't read the literature, you can't do the experiment, just mix in the lab to help clean up, listen to the bosses brag, you can admit two more drugs, open your eyes.
“The top students of our chemical house are on this list," he took a list, found the ark, and Li Shushan said in a half-joke tone, "We must first say well, talent cultivation belongs to talent cultivation, don't take all the precious pimples of our chemical house to study mathematics. ”
The Ark laughed and said, "Don't worry, I promise you, how many people will be borrowed and how many will be returned. ”
Computational materials, by definition, definitely have to study mathematics, but definitely chemistry. Research in frontier areas, the line between discipline and discipline was not so clear. If we were to move towards research in the future, it would not be bad to learn more.
“That's what you said, I can remember that,” Dean Li said with a smile, solemnly handing over the roster to the Ark, "then please! ”
It's not just a list, it's an empty experimental building.
The new experimental building was originally intended as a material mechanics laboratory for the placement of newly acquired Dynamic Mechanical Analyzers, Electronic Tensile Testers, Quartz Crystal Weights Equity and other newly acquired equipment.
As a result, the building was built and the instrument was temporarily not in place, and the ship borrowed it.
After borrowing the experimental site, the ark immediately asked the instructors to clean up an office for themselves as a temporary office.
He's basically stayed at Kim Dae these days. Office in the school's lab, eating in the school's cafeteria, and staying at a hotel near Kinda.
Although he rented a house on the University City side, the mess couldn't be accommodated at all, it was too much trouble to clean up, and the house still smelled like a chassis.
Even every time he called someone from the computer store to help with the hardware maintenance, the people from the computer store spat on him, how long had the house been uninhabited?
For the Golden Ring Institute of Computing Materials, Ark even specifically emailed her student and assistant teacher, Vera, to help her write an application for teaching at Princeton University, extending her vacation by half a month.
Although the professor's salary was no longer of great concern to him, the professor's work could inspire him in his research, but it also allowed him to reflect on the “obvious” questions, whether they were really as obvious as they seemed.
In that regard, he shared Mr. Fermi's view that there was no conflict between learning and developing students.
At the same time, watching one's students grow into top scholars is a fairly accomplished thing in itself.
Fortunately, his mathematics lesson started only at the end of February, and interviews for fall entrance could be done on video, with little impact.
……
The next step is to get these people to work.
Interns can wait until the project is officially started. However, in order not to delay the progress of the study, formal researchers will have to be recruited as soon as possible.
In the office of the experimental building, Ark Zhou met Brother Qian and Brother Liu for a long time.
As soon as he met, he asked in the first sentence.
“Professor Lee didn't scold me, did he? ”
Liu Bo's expression was helpless: “No, just let us go. ”
When I heard that, the ark laughed with some embarrassment.
Digging from Professor Li was also a necessity. The laboratory on Silicon Valley's side had just been completed and could not be separated from falling empty-handed. On the Chinese side, of all the people he knows, there are only two brothers who can count on him.
In particular, Qian Zhongming, although only a master's degree, has undoubtedly reached the level of PhD in his professionalism in the field of materials. Especially in terms of research experience, he, even some doctors, who have been involved in R&D projects on many occasions, cannot compare.
And in fact, that's exactly why Professor Lee weighed him.
“Please stop screaming, I also came to worship the master of art, I'm afraid I'll have to call you Master in the future.” Probably because he didn't wear a white coat, Qian Zhongming made a rare joke.
“If you dare not be a master, I have learned a lot from you. Let's learn from each other.” The ark laughed.
Qian Zhongming shook his head and said seriously: “The things I taught you are just some fur, you can learn from any teacher doing the project. But computational material science, I can only ask you to teach, and hope not to teach in the future. ”
Seeing Brother Qian so seriously, the Ark can only laugh helplessly.
Clearing his voice, he turned the subject to business.
“This is one of the key research projects in the National New Energy Development Plan, specifically addressing the shuttle effect in lithium-sulfur batteries, which I'm sure you've heard of. ”
Brother Qian nodded, indicating that he had understood the importance of the project: “What do you think? ”
“A little, but still very vague.” The ark shook its head and continued, "But the problem we need to solve now is not this, it's the instrument. ”
Qian Zhongming and Liu Bo nodded in the same place.
Instruments are the key to real experimentation, and nothing can be done without equipment. Even mathematical modelling of materials ultimately requires experimentation to test the theory's correctness.
Paused for a moment, the ark continued.
“I have contacted Yumeko to find their partner and ordered a batch of instruments. Although I've hired a few experts from Sky Technologies to go to Europe for acceptance, I need someone I can trust to sign there. So, you can only go on a business trip to Europe on your first day in office. ”
“Nothing." Qian Zhongming smiled slightly, “I used to buy instruments too. This precious stuff can't be so-so, it's not just about money, it's also about the reliability of measured data. ”
The ark nodded: "Well, please. ”
I had arranged to see my brother, but I had no assignment yet. Liu Bo couldn't sit down any longer. Raise his hand and ask.
“What about me? ”
“I hope you will accompany Brother Qian.” Looking at Brother Liu, Lu Zhou smiled and said, “I'm not too relieved that he went alone. ”
