President Yan Chunhua: Graduate is focusing on "research"

Dear classmates

Dear teachers and friends:

Hello everyone! The trees are all autumn, and the mountains are falling towards Huihui. In September, in September, we ushered in 4,978 master's degree and 1112 doctoral graduate students. First of all, on behalf of the teachers and students of the school, I would like to express warm welcoming and sincere congratulations to your arrival! Express your sincere thanks to your parents and teachers!

The summer vacation just passed, affected by the epidemic of new crown pneumonia, the campus was quieter than usual, but there were still more than 5,000 graduate students staying on campus and continued to carry out scientific research. In the intense and busy summer, everyone studied, worked and lived together, and witnessed the diligence of the students. I have been thinking about the "first lesson" I should say for everyone. Different from undergraduate students' expectations and curiosity about majors. Now your identity is already a graduate student, you should consider some deeper issues. I think that unlike your undergraduate mission, graduate students should focus on "research".

The way of research must be determined.

The students successfully obtained the qualifications of graduate students, and the suffering behind them is both precious wealth and the cornerstone to the next step. At this moment, you must think quietly: what exactly is the graduate student for? If the undergraduate stage is mainly to learn to learn, master knowledge, broaden their horizons, and lay a good foundation, then the graduate stage must learn to study, cultivate and improve the research ability of "surgery industry with specialized attack" and the ability to create new knowledge. You can't just take the graduate students as a achievement buffer or a way to make a living. As the top of the national education system, graduate education is a key starting point for the state to seize the high point of science and technology strategic system and build an innovative country. Graduate students must be determined to pursue profound scientific research, serve scientific and innovative, industrial changes, and serve economic and social development. Can't get over and muddy! In June of this year, we have some master's degree students who have not received a degree, and there are many "fresh" doctoral graduate applications for extension, and some are even extended and difficult to obtain a degree within the prescribed time. The reason why this is at a festive moment is that I hope that from now on, I clearly plan their future, how to face the new era of the same day, how to adapt to graduate life, how to contribute to the country and society, and create, and to create, to create, to create, to create, and to create, to create, to create, to create, and to create, to create, to create, to create, and to create, to create, to create, and to create for the country and society. Then lead. This is the perspective and mission of graduate students.

The method of research is rigorous.

Scientific research is a process of seeking truth. Good academic norms are the basis of scientific research. Observing academic norms is the bottom line of our scientific researchers. Studies cannot be rushed to achieve success, pursue short -term interests, and not to deviate from the correct value orientation. It must start with the foundation, start with a bit, and step by step. Among the current graduate groups, there is a problem of impetuousness and fluttering. This year, we still have a small number of master's degree papers before the test. These lack of academic integrity and not observing academic norms have seriously deviated from the original intention of postgraduate entrance examination and research, and violated the rules of scientific research. You must attract precepts and self -province for self -province! In the next 3 or 4 years, the time is limited but there is no horizon to learn the sea. I hope everyone will always be cautious at all times. Seeking truth from facts, concentrating on research, and concentrating time and energy to create high -quality and valuable scientific research results.

Research technique is difficult to explore.

Scientific answers, what, what technology answers, how to do, scientific issues and technical needs are the driving force of research. Graduate education is to master the thinking and methods of research, improve the efficiency of learning and research, and improve the ability to promote innovation and innovation. Therefore, at the graduate stage, we must focus on their professional directions, master the correct research methods, and strive to explore towards a goal. For example, should the students of the humanities and social sciences work hard to answer the questions of China, the question of the world, the people of the people, and the question of the times? Should the students of the science and engineering science and engineering be used to the original innovation and solve the technical difficulties of the card neck. Go to explore. We must be good at finding and discovering their own entry points from grand and complex issues, continuously deepen and refine it, and continuously optimize the research paths and methods, and finally rationalize logic, clarify relationships, and summarize the laws, form a new perspective, perspective, methods, and knowledge. This is the pursuit of inquiry and value that graduate students should have. Of course, this is also the most difficult to adhere to. I often say that scientific research is often dominated by failure, rarely obtains flowers and applause, and more are thorns and setbacks, and even all kinds of failures have followed. We must have sufficient thoughts, will, and physique. I hope that everyone will think independently in the way, meet difficulties in adversity, rationally and objectively understand themselves, learn to master the correct research methods, maintain the curiosity of unknown, and persist in exploration.

The research device focuses on good use.

"Instrument" is a tool for research, which is a guarantee and resource that can be achieved by "Tao, Fa, and Square. Education is to allow people to play potential freely, and universities provide the direction and opportunities of free choice. For graduate students, mentors, teachers, and classmates are the first resources on the road to study. I often communicate with the mentor and actively report to the instructor to make progress, so that the tutor can point out the shortcomings for us and help us complete the research tasks efficiently. The study of graduate students must consider both independently and in -depth research, but also collectively collaborate and win -win cooperation. Do not "wait", "touch the fish", "lying flat". In particular, in order to enhance collective consciousness, actively integrate into the team, and let students consider our research from a new and strange perspective, and ask unprecedented problems, we can develop ideas and overcome problems together. The use of libraries and various platform resources and timely reading of literature and reviewing materials are also a must -have skill in our learning. We have to read a lot of reading, try to stand on the shoulders of the predecessors and think about the problems, and continue to obtain research inspiration. Of course, each of our courses, every lecture, every chance of externally, every experimental practice, and the platform built by the entire school is the resources we can use, and everyone is the enrichment of everyone to enrich the graduate career The gas stations, supply points. classmates! In the graduation season this year, Zhang Panhong, a master's degree in ecology in 2022, said in response to the defense, "I believe that those who leaned over the seeds in autumn will have the whole spring." If you miss your mind, everything is available. I hope that everyone will adhere to the school motto of "self -improvement and uniqueness", practice the school style of "hard work, truthfulness, and aggressive", and based on the current development, the future that belongs to your will naturally come!

I sincerely look forward to seeing you at the graduation ceremony and degree awarding ceremony of 3 years or 4 years later, and see you more mature and confident and happier smiles!

thank you all!
