"not blind faith in foreign universities"

in recent years as China's economic growth, more and more students choose to study abroad. However, foreign graduate of environment than domestic OK? Many students of foreign universities full of vision, but does not know the real situation of foreign graduate. Summary of domestic and foreign graduate Professor FUNG is a very different: is the guidance of mentors to students of a wide range of domestic, is of great concern to students.

Reporter: teacher FUNG, Hello! Material Department of Tsinghua University graduates have always been a tradition of going abroad for further study, graduates do go abroad this year? You previously in Germany studying abroad for many years, for students in difficulty must be deep outside experience, you can combine the year experience and students talk to first do encounter difficulties abroad?

Feng Qingling: some years ago after graduating from the graduate students at Tsinghua University Department of materials, high percentage of going abroad, you basically select United States as a destination, feel it is more advanced hardware facilities. But the "9.11", the United States visa bad, apply for a fewer number of going abroad. Although visa good do it now, but is not the same as the domestic situation, many students choose to remain in the country, some students also choose returning to employment.

in fact, each person will encounter many difficulties of going abroad. Abroad is first encountered economic difficulties, students now than we have conditions to much of the year, we were to his working life, basically cannot provide economic support in the House. I was abroad or is of relatively good because Germany no tuition fees, I was studying to study, a two-year scholarship provided by the State, so working less. But the pure students studying at their own expense would have been very hard, winter vacation, weekends, after-school time to work on.

after going abroad in addition to economic difficulties, also encountered language problems. Although Chinese students have to pass the language test when you go out, but it can only cope with life. Especially students of science and technology, terminology, and to fully understand the teacher in class, to spend six months to a year's time. At that time to Germany, for three months on us Goethe-German training, through life terms, but one would be out in the classroom. If you are a Chinese content learned of course, also managed to content according to the chart, if the new class is in trouble, basically only knows about framework, simply could not understand the details. Everyone goes through this process, the slowest to one year, fast also to six months in order to fit.

Reporter: foreign and domestic study, life there is a difference of, to foreign graduate should adapt to the foreign instructors teaching methods.

Feng Qingling: you are right. Many students go abroad to adapt after it was originally expected the relaxed environment. Internal University class teacher, counselor, monitor, and students to study and live in a collective, the teacher around the students. But foreign children stand on the age of 18, so they think that university graduates, particularly postgraduates, everything should be resolved without too much concern. After students go out in the country, is facing right now no one tube, everything to make arrangements yourself. First problem is accommodation, many of us start is to join their relatives and friends, and then find the House, which is that many students have not experienced in the country. In order to find the school, usually cheaper and slightly better environment of House, international students to move many times, so keep looking for a House, keep moving, this is very time consuming and energy.

I think students not to blind faith in foreign universities, we now graduate domestic condition is not bad. Many people complain about the country's poor school conditions and mentor the students are concerned about not enough, and so on, but know only one out, much better home than abroad. In addition to the life, international students in the learning is also almost entirely themselves. In General, the mentor to the studentsAfter a large subject is no longer tube, is asking you to results within a specified time, if you encounter difficulties to try to solve it by themselves in the middle. And foreign conditions and equipment is not necessarily better than domestic, and I Exchange some students came back, said his own seat in a foreign country and computers have not, tutor and regardless, after several months of asking him to results. At home, took for my graduate students, I'll give each of them equip the computers, the table, if you need additional support, I also try to get them to create conditions.

in fact, both domestic and overseas graduate is a very different: a tutorial Guide for students is a lot of domestic, is of great concern to students. Student tutorial questions can be found at any time in the country, in a foreign country to make an appointment to the Secretary in advance. I was in Germany the Institute can talk to the instructor twice a year on average, that is, half a year. I and some of his time very difficult under normal circumstances, is definitely not for the first time, sometimes about good mentor has this or that thing and refuse, often offer only three rows. This is a common situation.

the "greatest happiness is to have students for many years a teacher will come back to see"

how important is the relationship between postgraduates and tutors without more. However, the news media have been reported in recent years a number of conflicts between teachers and students led to the tragedy, time, discussion of heated discussions on the relationship between instructors and graduate students. Both "boss", or "we long" tutorial topic will always be a graduate of Center. Perhaps we are entangled in the complex relationship between tutors and postgraduate representation, has been forgotten behind this is the "teacher-student relationship" the most simple essence.

Reporter: flowers on your window sill is very beautiful, are a student sent it?

Feng Qingling: Oh, Yes. Students come to see me every year, especially in the teacher's day and other festivals before and after, it made me very moved, no matter how many years they still thinking of me. I when the teacher is the greatest happiness of students over many years come back to see me.

Reporter: do you think of mentor and student relations at home and harmony? Often these years saw some teachers and students in the media have contradictory information, how you look at?

Feng Qingling: indeed there are contradictions between instructors and students. In our Department, average each tutor every year with only a PhD student, individual conflicts between teachers and students is that instructors want students can stay for some time. Because the tutorial project in the hands of many, none of the students help tutorial too busy to care about, wishes students late graduation, wait until the end of the project or not so busy going again. But from the perspective of students, students want to graduate looking for work as soon as possible, so that there are contradictions between the two. School in order to resolve these contradictions are specifically established the arbitration institution, if the conflict between teachers and students can go to arbitration institutions doing evaluation. In fact, the relationship between tutors and students not as complex as you want, most of the instructors and students relations are very good, my students often come back to see me, a student specifically to Beijing this summer to see me.

Reporter: in your opinion, between instructors and graduate students the ideal of how the State should be? Is feeling the same parentage, or simple pure?

Feng Qingling: in fact, each instructor has their own style. Like I used to do post-doctoral mentor, his style is that the people themselves as long, the entire relationship between teachers and students to create a "big family" atmosphere. His students in business, in all aspects of life are concerned, often party to house students. However, now the younger generation of teachers will not be taken in such a way that they believe students are adults, especially graduate students, to give them independent of space. Course guidance on business, life in case of difficulty, the teacher will also help, but to free space for the development of them. I am also inclined to the view of the comparison.
