The hot July is the time for teenagers to pursue their dreams.
On July 7th, a long-lost heavy rain eased the heat in Hefei in recent days, and made the students who came to attend the third interdisciplinary summer camp feel a little cool. From 7th to 14th, 75 outstanding college students from all over the country will spend an unforgettable summer camp here. For a week, they used dreams as a pen and greedily recorded their unforgettable feelings with China University of Science and Technology; For a week, they took their hearts as their eyes and perfectly fixed the wonderful moments on their dream-chasing road!
"I came a day early, just to be a volunteer to help."
On the first day of registration, among the busy volunteers, there was a special figure. He was Yu Kaiming from Nanchang University. Since high school, Yu Kaiming has been fascinated by China University of Science and Technology. This summer, he came to the synchrotron radiation laboratory one day early and volunteered to be a volunteer. On the day of new campers’ registration, I helped distribute summer camp materials, arranged campers’ accommodation, led students to visit the school history museum, etc., sweating and dedicating my passion.
The interdisciplinary summer camp has been successfully held for two sessions and has long been famous. Since March, Yu Kaiming has been paying close attention to the enrollment information on the website of HKUST for fear of missing the registration time for the summer camp. After three years of hard work, he finally got the opportunity to participate in the interdisciplinary summer camp as the first in his class. He said that there is no anxiety or exaggeration on the campus of HKUST, but only an atmosphere of quiet, calm, down-to-earth and quiet research. University of Science and Technology has always been his dream, and now he is one step closer to his dream.
"Next, it is the moment to witness the miracle."
In order to let the students get acquainted as soon as possible, the interdisciplinary summer camp specially arranged a fraternity for everyone. Various programs written and directed by students took turns to appear. "I show myself" and "You show me and I guess" made the students laugh, and the "Transfer from Space" magic performed by students from Tianjin University made the playing cards on the female host transfer to the male host in full view, which made the atmosphere of the whole fraternity reach its climax. At the closing ceremony of the summer camp on July 12th, magician Tian Lang Zehuan specially presented the "only and last" finale performance for the summer camp of China University of Science and Technology: under the watchful eyes of more than 1,000 people at the scene, the words "Meet with the University of Science and Technology and set sail with dreams" instantly changed to playing cards.
Tian Lang Zehuan brought "the moment to witness the miracle" to all the audience, and China University of Science and Technology also let him witness the miracle at the last minute. Due to the limited number of people admitted, Tian Lang Zehuan was not confirmed to be admitted at first. It was not until the last moment before the opening of the camp that he got the admission notice. With excitement, he resolutely set foot on the south train to participate in the interdisciplinary summer camp. At the closing ceremony, in front of all the audience, Tian Lang Zehuan said with deep affection, "I am very grateful to HKUST for giving me this opportunity to experience the life of HKUST at close range. The reports of famous teachers will open my eyes. I will definitely return to HKUST next year."
"Don’t worry and come boldly."
The lecture in the next three days will be an eye-opener for the students. During the three days, they will learn not only professional knowledge, but also a professional attitude of devoting themselves to scientific research. "Hundred people" and "thousand people" took turns to go into battle, and each tutor racked his brains to attract talents. Researcher Gao Chen said: "I have sufficient research resources, so students can come boldly." Researcher Wu Ziyu said: "My research team covers all directions, including biomedicine, low-dimensional materials, physics, chemistry, biology and other majors, and can find a place." Professor Li Liangbin was surrounded by his classmates after making his report, so he had to say to them, "Listen to the next report first, I’ll wait for you in the office at dinner time, and you can come to me at any time."
The National Synchrotron Radiation Laboratory is the first national laboratory built in China, and the only scientific apparatus built in colleges and universities. As a scientific apparatus platform, physics, chemistry and biology are involved in all directions. Because of this, this summer camp is named interdisciplinary summer camp, which can make students from different disciplines collide with each other in their thoughts and minds.
"HKUST, wait for me"
In order to get students in close contact with their tutors, this summer camp also specially arranged activities such as "face-to-face with tutors" and dinners between teachers and students. The rare cows gathered together to answer students’ questions about their study and scientific research direction, and encouraged students to take interdisciplinary and interdisciplinary examinations and explore their new directions. During the dinner party between teachers and students, researcher Gao Chen sang a song "The Sun Rising on the Grassland", and a wonderful ballroom dance by Vice President Gu Jibao of the Graduate School won warm applause from the students. One song and one dance quietly narrowed the distance between teachers and students, and the deep affection between teachers and students warmed everyone’s heart.
There are as many as 20 students from Sichuan University in this summer camp. Among them, Nikki told me that as early as May, HKUST sent a powerful delegation of professors to Sichuan, and many students from Sichuan University looked forward to this summer camp early. Li Lili said excitedly, "HKUST is my dream. If I can’t get the extrapolated quota from the school, I will take the exam. HKUST, wait for me! "
The sky crosses an arc, which is their footsteps in chasing dreams; The sea started a surge of waves, which was their courage to pursue their dreams. They use the passion of youth to light up the light of their dreams and soar in HKUST with the wings of their dreams. Dream Round University of Science and Technology, in this campus carrying dreams, is spreading its enthusiasm and sweat, meeting the University of Science and Technology, and setting sail with dreams. In the hot July, it is the time for teenagers to pursue dreams!
