Chapter 744

The number of international students has increased.

And in the slightest in quality.

After all.

After the leaders of Yan University Mathematics Institute realized this, they also raised the threshold for enrollment accordingly.

This also leads.

Many seedlings who are fully qualified to go to the world's top universities such as MIT and Princeton were easily accepted by the Yan University School of Mathematics.

Wait a few years.

This group of students has grown up completely and has their own prestige in the mathematics world, which will be a living signboard of the Yan University School of Mathematics.

In addition to the surge in the number and quality of international students, Bao Songquan also told Gu Lu another small thing.

It's about Alec.

After Alec resigned from his job in Denmark and officially joined Yan University, his life was prosperous.

Aggreko is one of the core members of the geometry-algebra-topology theory research group.

Take advantage of the dividends of the geometry-algebra-topology grand unification theory.

Alec has almost secured the position of the first person of the younger generation in the topological world.

For a short period of time.

This position is largely unshakeable.

In addition, among the core members of the research group, Gu Lu disappeared again, Simon, Zhang Wei, Doyle and others were in retreat and digesting knowledge, and Alec became the most active existence in this group of people, and in the past six months, he has brushed a lot of presence in the mathematical community.

Moreover.

The most important point.

Aggreko's presence is not for nothing.

It is precisely because of these presences that Alec has won a worldwide award.

Veblen Prize!

This is the highest award in the field of geometry and topology worldwide.

With the exception of the Fields Medal, it is what all geometricians and topologists in the world want to touch.

This year.

The geometry-algebra-topology grand unification theory is very popular in the mathematical community.

The Wiblen Prize, which prides itself on being fair and impartial, should also be awarded a medal in any case.

But to whom is this medal awarded!

Count the core team of the geometry-algebra-topology grand unification theory.

Gu Lu and Simon, as well as Professor Doyle, have all won a Wiblen Prize.

There is no precedent for the Wiblen Prize to award two medals to the same person.

As for Zhang Wei......

He was an algebraian.

If you want to win the prize, you should also win the Cole Algebra Prize, and what is the matter with winning the Wiblen Prize.

Thereupon.

They counted them down.

It seems that there is only one Alec left.

In fact.

According to his contribution to the geometry-algebra-topology grand unification theory, Aggreko is not eligible for a Wiblen medal.

But it doesn't work.

The judging panel for the Wiblen Prize had no other choice.

Thereupon.

Alec's successful leak pick-up.

Easily picked up a Wiblen Medal medal for nothing.

This makes Alec happy.

Because according to Alec's plan, he is ready to hit the Veblen Award in five years.

But I didn't expect it.

It only took a year to get the paddling effortlessly.

Moreover.

With Alec receiving the Veblen Prize.

The number of Wiblen Prize winners has been increased to five.

Gu Lu, Simon, Alec, these are three of them.

There are also two veteran professors of the Yan University School of Mathematics, who rarely show up now and are about to take a back seat.

So far.

After the number of winners of the Wiblen Prize reached five.

Yenching University and Princeton University are tied for one of the two universities in the world with the most active Wiblen Prize winners.

............

"By the way, Gu Lu, there is another very important thing that I forgot to tell you. ”

In the office, Bao Songquan crossed his fingers, and said to Gu Lu with a smile on his face, "This year's QS World University Rankings were officially announced half a month ago!"

QS World University Rankings!

Gu Lu suddenly woke up.

Oh, yes!

The QS World University Rankings are generally released in August and September each year.

And today is the end of September.

Calculate the time.

The QS World University Rankings should have been released a long time ago.

"Senior brother, what is the ranking of our Yan University Mathematics Academy this time?" Gu Lu asked.

When he asked this, Gu Lu felt a little apprehensive in his heart.

After all.

Gu Lu also has a main quest to squeeze Yan Dashu Academy into the top five in the world.

This main quest was released in 2018 and has a four-year mission cycle.

In other words.

When the next list is announced next year, it will be the deadline for the task.

Once the task fails.

Those points and all that reward are gone.

And, perhaps, there will be some punishment.

If possible.

Gu Lu still hoped that he could complete this seemingly extremely difficult task.

Gu Lu and Bao Songquan looked at each other.

Bao Songquan didn't say it directly, but smiled mysteriously, "You guess?"

Gu Lu could easily judge from Bao Songquan's expression that the ranking of the Department of Mathematics of Yan University on the QS World University List this time would definitely not be low.

With the advent of the unified theory of geometry-algebra-topology, it has the tendency to develop into the world's geometry, algebra and topology center, and has many well-known mathematicians to join, and there are overseas outstanding students who apply for the examination.

With the blessing of so many factors, the ranking of the Department of Mathematics of Yan University will definitely improve.

The question is just how much to improve.

Last year.

The Department of Mathematics at Yan University is ranked 16th.

So this year......

Gu Lu touched his chin and groaned for a few seconds, then said softly, "Have you entered the top ten?"

Bao Songquan smiled and nodded, and then compared a number with his fingers, "Ninth, hahaha, Gu Lu, this time our Yan University Mathematics Department is ranked ninth on the list!"

Bao Songquan smiled heartily.

Let's be honest.

Bao Songquan was a little stunned when he saw the ranking of this list.

But the astonishment was followed by ecstasy.

On this list.

The top 10 universities and the rest are two different worlds entirely.

Moreover, the top ten schools have been firmly occupied by the four top mathematical powers: United States, Yingguo, Germany, and Switzerland.

This time, the Department of Mathematics of Yan University not only broke the blockade of the four top mathematics powers, but also announced that it was officially among the top mathematics universities in the world.

Originally.

The improvement of mathematical strength is considered by many people in China to be a century-old plan.

The same is true for the leaders of the Yan University Academy.

In the original planning of the Yan University Mathematics Academy.

I am ready to try to qualify for the top 10 in the world in 2050.

But I didn't expect it.

It's only 2020.

The School of Mathematics of Yan University has successfully ranked among the top 10 mathematics departments in the world.

It's not just stunned people at home.

At the same time, let the Yan University School of Mathematics once again shine on the stage of the international mathematical community.

After the publication of this list.

No one will despise Yan Dashu Academy anymore.
