Since the inception of our program in 1991, we have been blessed with many brilliant and hard working students. Throughout their studies, we have joy in teaching them and their inquisitive minds inspired us to offer many interesting topic courses. Other than course works with us, some of them also traveled and do research. As reported by the school of science, one out of five science students participated in exchange programs between our university and other North American/European/East Asian universities. The exchange statistics for our top students were substantially higher.
In the summer, some of them participated in our UROP (Undergraduate Research Opportunity Program) and worked on research problems with our faculty members as well as our physics and computer science colleagues. There were prime examples of high achievements in research (see for instance the citation of Zhang Jian in the Epsilon Fund Award 2006, who had at least three research articles published in Springer journals before graduation and received many PhD admission offers from top US graduate programs in pure and applied mathematics).
After graduation, many of our UG and M.Phil students went abroad for math (pure or applied) and related graduate programs. Based on the latest US News & World Report rankings in mathematics, many of them continued their studies at the top graduate programs in US. The following is an incomplete list (ordered according to the US News ranking): Our record of most number of PG admission offers received are set by the following students:
In 2012 Chen Qifeng1 had 9 PhD offers from MIT, Harvard, Princeton, Stanford, UC Berkeley, UCLA, Michigan, Columbia and Cornell.
In 2006 Zhang Jian had 8 PhD offers from UC Berkeley, Caltech, UCLA, Michigan, NYU, Yale, Minnesota, Illinois. | MIT | Chow Chak On (1994) | | Harvard | Zhao Yiqun (2012) | | Princeton | Feng Xiaochen1(2010), Lu Jingwan1 (2009) | | Stanford | Wang Yue (2013), Zhang Xiaotong3 (2012), Chen Qifeng1 (2012), Sun Teng3 (2010), Siu Ho Chung (2010), Fong Tsz Ho (2007) | | UC Berkeley | Li Penghui (2013), Shen Yixuan, (2010), Ma Yiqing (2007) | | Chicago | Dai Chaoxing (2013)3, Fan Tianqi (2011), Tsui Ka Kin (1997) | | UCLA | Wu Angela Anqi (2013), Yan Sibo3(2011), Wong Tsz Wai (2007), Lui Lok Ming (2003), Li Yan (2002), Chiang Lo Fung (2002), Leung Shing Yu (2001), Wong Sing Chi Stephen (1996) | | Michigan | Wang Di (2011), Leung Kin Kwan (2008), Xue Qinqing (2007) | | Columbia | Ling Wodan (2013)3 ,Yuan Ding (2012), Yi Weishu (2011), Wang Chongli (2011), KANG Jiayin (2010)3, Qi You (2008), XU Chenguang (2008)4, Xu Yingnan (2007) | | NYU(Courant) | Ye Zehua (2013), Pang Liming (2012), Cheung Yun Kuen2 (2009), Zhu Bo (2009), Du Man (2008), Zhang Jian (2006), REN Weiqing (1999) | | Yale | Shan Shaxuan3(2011), Song Jingjing (2009), Jiang Ning (2007), Ip Chi Ho Ivan2 (2005), Hu Xing (2004) | | Cornell | Feng Jiekun (2013)3, Wang Tao (2010), Wang Yuxing (2010) | | Northwestern | SHI Nan (2012), Gao Honghao (2012), Gao Yi (2011), Li Penghui (2011), Wang Lu (2011), Wang Huanhuan (2006) | | University of Wisconsin | Peng Jingjiang (2007), Zhang Xin4 | | UC San Diego | SONG Shuang (2012), Cheung Man Wai (2010) | | SUNY Stony Brook | Koh Ying Ying (1996) | | University of Washington | Ye Xiaofeng (2011), Fang Wai Tong (2008) | | Carnegie Mellon | Fan Chunlin (2004), Lee Pak Kuen (1998) | | Washington U.
