北京大学数学科学学院近日澄清了网络上关于菲尔兹奖得主王虹求学经历的不实传言。[1]王虹是该院2011届269名毕业生中的49名优秀毕业生之一，曾获得学院教师王福正、田青春、王立中等的推荐信赴法留学。[1]
王虹已获得巴黎综合理工学院的录取通知并确认前往。[1]学院方面说明，王虹因计划出国深造而未参加保研，但以其成绩具备保研资格。[1]据北京大学数学科学学院原院长陈大岳介绍，学生申请出国学习时，一般都是自行联系老师获得推荐信。[1]
Peking University's School of Mathematical Sciences has issued a clarification regarding online rumors about Fields Medalist Wang Hong's academic background.[1] According to the statement, Wang Hong was one of 49 outstanding graduates among 269 total graduates from the school's 2011 cohort across all degree levels.[1]
Wang Hong obtained recommendation letters from multiple faculty members at the School of Mathematical Sciences—including Wang Fuzheng, Tian Qingchun, and Wang Lizhong—to support her application to study abroad in France.[1] She subsequently received an admission offer from Ecole Polytechnique and confirmed her enrollment there.[1] While Wang Hong chose to pursue graduate studies overseas rather than participate in the school's graduate recommendation program, she possessed the academic qualifications to have done so.[1]
Chen Dayue, former dean of the School of Mathematical Sciences, noted that students typically approach instructors independently to request recommendation letters when applying for international study opportunities.[1]
