Associate Professor, School of Management, Zhejiang University

Program director

“The world nowadays is data-driven, that’s the reason why we develop this program. Our program tries to help people deal with the data-driven world, and help students to learn all kinds of knowledge to analyze the data and, to find the solutions based on the data. Our program welcomes students from different majors, whether science or arts background. The students are supposed to have a basic idea about mathematics and programming, as well as an innovative mindset. We give you a tool, but how to find the problem and solve it, you need to do it innovatively.”

“I think our master program is a very good choice for those who want to apply a Ph.D., because this program requires a master thesis, which is simpler compared to a Ph.D. thesis. You can get some experience on how to do research through this program. After finishing it, you will know whether you are suitable for the research or not.”

“I think the most impressive curriculum during my study is data mining, which is also a very important skill in this major. It teaches me machine learning, some models, coding tasks and lots of mathematical skills. I also met my research project in this class.”

“When I was an undergraduate, I’ve never imagined I would look for a job in academia. But the experience in Zhejiang University, from the school  courses to this research program, I met many supervisors who finally made a difference to what I think about my future.”

“As for my plans after graduation, I think I will work as an operation research scientist in a company like Alibaba. Also, there are opportunities to exchange in other universities. I plan to exchange in Hec Montréal, which has one of the most advanced operation research teams with whom I can exchange ideas.”
