All interviews are over, and Li Mu has also received the results of the interviews.
Yuan Siping, Tu Zhizhen, Anthony Alex, and Brahms Liszt.
The quota of two Chinese people may make others think that he has a nationality bias when selecting students.
However, of course, he does not have to explain this kind of thing. I believe that his current predictions for Yuan Siping and Tu Zhizhen will ultimately prove everything in the future.
Of course, even if there is a nationality bias, it is quite normal. Graduate tutors will tend to choose students who have an innate relationship with them and are relatively outstanding.
Therefore, those famous foreign Chinese scholars will basically accept some Chinese students.
After making a simple lunch, Li Mu returned to the study room, sat in front of the computer, and began to edit notification emails for these students.
[Classmate xx, congratulations. You performed very well in the interview and passed my test. I will report your name to the college. Please wait for the notification from the school. I am also looking forward to the day when I can officially meet with you. .
Of course, I also hope that you can continue to think and study the question I asked you during the interview in the months before admission. This will be your first topic after admission, so please take it seriously. Treat, I will check your progress when you enroll. 】
At the end, he typed another emoji:), and then scheduled the email to be sent to the corresponding person in a few hours. Although he already had the results, he still had to make these future graduate students feel that he had passed. The result was arrived at after some careful consideration.
As for the task he assigned at the end, it was a further test for his "quasi-disciples", which he had already thought about before the interview.
Just like what he told Yuan Siping at the end when he was interviewing him, the topic they interviewed was their first topic after enrolling.
Even if it is to prevent these students from slacking off a little because they have become his students in the next period of time.
After all, he doesn't have time to slack off, so how can he let his students slack off?
Well, he has already decided that he will be a strict teacher. A strict teacher will produce a good disciple.
Of course, putting aside these things, these topics were carefully selected by him based on the achievements of these students in the past.
It's very difficult, but with the tips he gave, it becomes relatively less difficult to actually implement it.
It has reached a point where they cannot complete it now, but after a period of hard work and serious study, they can complete it.
He believes that as a tutor, the most important ability is to be able to accurately determine a student's current level, and to set a goal for the student that is slightly higher than the level based on this level, so as to encourage the student to continue forward.
And if the tutor always sets a very difficult goal for the student, and the student spends a lot of time and is never able to complete it, then this will only lead to the student's interest in research continuing to decrease, and finally choose to give up completely; on the contrary , if students are always set simple goals, students may feel very relaxed, but it will only lead to students being unable to grow.
As for things like trying to encourage students to succeed - such as teaching students step by step to complete a paper from beginning to end, it goes without saying that no tutor will do this kind of thing, unless it is an academic Daji.
Of course, Li Mu would not accept the academic Daji joining here.
The topic he gave during the interview was the best way to screen out a student's ability. For Daji and others, let's ride in the Canyon of Kings.
After sending emails to these four students, he did not forget to send a letter of comfort to the other two students.
Of course, in the email, he also suggested to the two students that they should study the questions raised in the interview carefully, which might be of great benefit to them.
Including the tips he gave in the questions, they can also use them on their own, which is a little compensation for their failure to pass the assessment.
In this way, he can be regarded as the most benevolent and righteous person.
After all the interviews were completed, Li Mu reported the four students he confirmed to the college, and then the staff of their college will work with these freshmen until the students start enrolling as freshmen next year.
Of course, he doesn't need to worry about these things.
"Next, we have to go back to the Navier-Stokes equation..."
I took some scratch paper from the side of the desk.
"Well... under the new space description, the properties of fluids in different forms are indeed clearer, but the only problem now is..."
He squinted his eyes slightly, lowered his head and turned over the draft paper in his hand.
After he determined the setting of Li's space, his research on fluid mechanics indeed made rapid progress.
However, this rapid progress did not last long, and he encountered problems again.
"Li's space only internalizes external factors, but does not integrate them with real internal factors. I still need to consider factors in the fluid space and factors inside the fluid at the same time."
"This will still cause some problems in the final data processing."
"Um……"
Rubbing his chin, Li Mu began to recall all his relevant knowledge in his mind.
But soon, he reluctantly discovered that no one else had encountered the same problem as him, because his problem was based on the premise of Li's space.
As for Li's Space, he has not announced it yet.
"Is it possible that... we have to create a new tool?"
Li Mu felt a little headache for a while.
Mathematical tools are not so easy to create, this is simply embarrassing him...
But in the end he sighed, there was nothing he could do.
What needs to be done must be done, he can only continue to be the pioneer.
The world always requires men to be fearless...
Ahem, it should be——
Mathematics always makes people cry crazy...
…
Time passed quickly.
Li Mu continued to create his new mathematical tools, and on the other side, as the emails he sent regularly reached the scheduled time, the six emails were sent out on time.
In Merton College, Oxford University, there are many benches next to the garden.
Although it is very cold in the UK in February, it does not prevent students from still liking to gather outside, so there are many students sitting on these benches, chatting and interacting with friends.
At this time, several people were sitting on one of the benches.
"Hey, don't be nervous. As long as Professor Li hasn't sent the email, the result is unknown."
The boy sitting on the left patted the worried boy in the middle and comforted him.
The one sitting on the right also put his hand on the shoulder of the boy in the middle and said, "Don't forget, your name is Brahms Liszt."
"A combination of two great musicians. Just by looking at your name, I believe Professor Li will give you extra points."
The boy in the middle is none other than Brahms Liszt, who interviewed Li Mu as a graduate student.
