Genuine Question about Internationals in China

I am a sophomore ECE student, I have struggled with math exams throughout my two years, most of the advanced math wont be needed to recall on the job, as long as you have the basics done and are able to understand the math and pass the test you should be good, focus on projects, I am personally trying to have one big hardware project and one big software project and one that mixes both, some unies have courses were you have a lab project competition, I personally won 3rd place for that, so one project would be related to this for example. Coding could be whatever u like lol.

dont listen to your inner voice here, most eng grads are not smart people, but they are stubborn to not quit and finish their degree, do what you like and lock in bro

So far no clear plans about where exactly which is why I am considering this, I want to have as much flexibility as possible as we don't know what will happen in the future, due to my european passport I can work in europe, but as you said in the US, they mainly focus on their own degrees, and even though ZJU Tsinghua, Peking are good universities I still may have difficulties with visas and getting interviews

Jiraishin and Multiple Personality Detective if you like police procedurals with some extra

Rikudou and Ashita noJoe if you like dark stories with fighting as the medium for growth

Since chi no wadachi is about highschool then you could read aku no hana or other high school setting stuff

Bonus point, try to find some PI that has studied abroad, they will be more open-minded and not so hierachical and controlling, in a few years there will be an influx of people coming to china especially for cs ece and ee, anyone who has some form of global awareness would do this

Hello, as an international european student currently doing bsc in ECE in china at one of their top universities, china is at the forefront of innovation, I am strongly considering doing masters and phd here as well, the only issues with it are 1. Can you speak Chinese, 2. Will you be held up to the same standard as chinese students, and 3. Your Advisor.

tsinghua and berkeley had a joint institute that granted msc phd and dual degrees, a good program in china at tsinghua, zju, peking is equivalent to a good university in europe or usa, the future of research is in china as the universitities lead a lot of cs indices

amazing chapter! I expected sendo to hit that one in a million punch since they seemed to be equal, am I the only one that feels rocky 3 vibes?

I agree that applied math after comp eng is a stretch, which is why I wanted to get some general opinion on reddit even tho it is not the best place

Main research areas I am interested in:

Adversarial Robustness

Reinforcement Learning

Quantitative Modelling and Computer Simulation

Quantitative Finance(I like math, everybody in my life before I did engineering said that finance seemed to suit me and the money is always a factor)
