Xiang graduated from the computer department of Chongqing University with a scholarship to Europe and the United States and Asia Bond project, and went to the University of Nottingham Trent to study for a PhD.

"I have been to the ph. D. 9 years of computer science, postdoctoral stage only transferred to management, in the management of the continued development, it is because I have the technology and management of two aspects of learning background, so only choose to do technology management and science and technology enterprise management research." ”

Yesterday, Chongqing Evening News reporter interviewed Xiang through micro-letter.

was appointed as a tenured professor last December, his greatest feeling was that responsibility became greater, and his ability to research, teach and lead was higher. "The only standard for tenure professors is the level of research, the ability to do research, and whether good advice can affect government and business decisions, rather than writing papers at home," he said. In the UK, there is no need for seniority, as long as you do better than others, you will be valued. "he said.
Once the game curtilage, now is the Olympic torch hand
Xiang Memories, he entered the university in 1999, is also a otaku, born in Chongqing, he has not even been to the University of China to other cities, and hardly participated in campus activities. "At that time and now college students like playing games." Father Shong also said, son especially like to play games, a new game out he will be playing night and night. After graduating from college, he came to England and wanted to spend a year traveling around the UK to join the school travel community. The activities of these societies have enhanced his ability to socialize and laid the groundwork for future research.
"The Chinese emphasize honouring, which makes Chinese students more cautious, but sometimes in school activities, academic research, students need to have the opportunity to release." Personally feel that the domestic community is mainly arranged by the teacher, organized, and the University of my thinking has been relatively independent, so rarely participate in activities. "While the foreign university activities are more students-led, the teacher has become a helper, even in different circumstances, Xiang become more active." Later, Xiang as the president of the local Chinese students and Scholars Association, he is more capable of social activities, which is also helpful to his current research direction.
However, Xiang is also frank, the combination of Chinese and English education is a great inspiration for his life. "Chinese-style education attaches great importance to the foundation, which helps me a lot." "he said.
In the interview process, he also recalled that once the school asked everyone to attend a child-friendly activities, he immediately responded that he is actually "left behind children." "My father is a university professor, has been busy with work, academic research, often abroad, so I learned from the university for a long time to see him." "Xiang said that before more time was the mother alone in taking care of him," but I also very much appreciate the cooperation between parents, on the one hand, I have the mother meticulous care, on the other hand, the father tireless study of the spirit has become my childhood role model, I have a great impact, I learned that people must go forward, to continue efforts. "The
has made outstanding contributions to the promotion of academic, educational and scientific cooperation between China and Britain in recent years, and in 2012 heHe was also invited to the Olympic torch by the London Olympic Committee as the only Chinese scholar to receive the award. At present, Xiang is also the only Chinese member of the British Science and Technology department's core group of experts.
used to be small, now still so willful
"my childhood to the University of Education is completed in Chongqing, at that time the college entrance examination score is not bad, I did not choose a foreign university, the most important reason is like Chongqing." Xiang said that even now living in Britain, he will take time to go back to Chongqing several times a year.
refers to the age of students, from the physics from the top of the Bear Elm, high school mathematics had won the first place. He smiled and said that he was not very good at philology, and belonged to the apparently partial students. He encouraged now partial students to play their own strengths, not because of a division of the poor discouraged. "Interest is the most important, is to do more of their own interest, but also to do their own interests." Maybe my experience can remind students like me partial. "he said. In his view, foreign students to develop the interests of the better, Chinese teachers should respect students, more students to explore the interest.
2003 years of undergraduate graduation, and now many students like, Xiang also fell into confusion, do not know their development direction-grind or work, or go abroad? This should also be a problem for every college student, he said. However, now the Bear Yu more believe that the most suitable for their opportunities will always appear, the opportunity to only prefer the prepared people, so college students should be ready to prepare ahead of time.
Although used to be biased, however, with a large number of university graduates, employment pressure increases, he also suggested that, regardless of partial, it is always beneficial to open the book. "Should read more books, such as social knowledge of the book, Look at the future to think more, do things must be thought twice before the line." "he said.
