I Am the President of the University

Chapter 740 Is materials science really a sinkhole?

Huang Jie's dream since childhood was to become a scientist.

And he is indeed on the path to realization.

Master's degree from the University of Science and Technology of China, PhD from Kyoto University, postdoctoral fellow at the National Institute of Materials Science and Technology, Japan, and now associate researcher at the Zhangjiang Laboratory in Shanghai.

Everything is moving towards a better future.

But he was not happy. \b

Logically speaking, an associate researcher is also a deputy senior professional, and his salary is not low, with an annual salary of more than 400,000 yuan before tax. In addition, Zhangjiang Laboratory is in the process of applying for a national laboratory, which looks very good.

But he doesn't like it here.

The Zhangjiang Laboratory was jointly built by the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Shanghai Municipal Government. It has abundant funds and a strong background.

However, there are still old writers who judge seniority in salary ranking. What disgusts him most is that administrative staff are so superior. Every time they apply for funds or make reports to purchase equipment, they are disgusted and have to imitate other people to please administrative staff.

Sometimes he felt that he was about to become the kind of person he hated before.

Moreover, there are several big names in his research group, and his daily work is just to do some low-tech things.

For example, writing experimental plans, organizing experimental data and writing experimental reports; writing and applying for research funds; and guiding and training experimental personnel.

Coupled with the 9-to-5 + weekend life, his enthusiasm and passion are being worn away by the years. \b

If you continue to stay here, you will be nothing more than a screwdriver and a scientific researcher.

You will never become a true "scientist".

I was walking back in a daze, and there happened to be a cafe on the roadside.

Huang Jie walked in subconsciously, bought a cup of hot American food and sat down.

Magic City is known as the capital of coffee and the country of coffee. Even under precise prevention and control, it is a representative city of the petty bourgeoisie that drinks coffee. It is impossible to live without coffee. (he tui)

When the coffee enters your mouth, the bitter taste fills your mouth, and your tired spirit is slightly refreshed.

When I was bored, I opened the blind date forum... Well, I opened the Xiaomu Chong forum. I hadn't done much browsing when I saw a pinned hot post.

After seeing the title of the post clearly, Huang Jie was stunned.

As if he was afraid that he would be dazzled, he rubbed his eyes. After repeatedly confirming that it was correct, Huang Jie began to feel anxious in his heart.

[Assistant researcher’s annual salary starts at RMB 300,000, Guanghua University National Laboratory of Advanced Materials and Semiconductors (in preparation) is recruiting 700 people! 】

Clicking on the post, Huang Jie started reading.

[The National Laboratory of Advanced Materials and Semiconductors (in preparation), in accordance with relevant national, provincial and municipal regulations, and in accordance with the principles of "openness, equality, competition and merit selection", adheres to the standards of meritocracy and having both ability and political integrity, and is now recruiting scientific research talents from the public. 】

[1. Introduction to the unit:

The National Laboratory of Advanced Materials and Semiconductors (in preparation) is a national laboratory established by my country to face the world's technological frontiers. It is an important part of the national strategic scientific and technological strength. Its main mission is to gather high-level talents at home and abroad, promote international exchanges and cooperation, and carry out strategic Sexual, forward-looking, basic research on major scientific issues and key core technology research...]

[2. Recruitment positions:

Openly recruit 700 scientific research talents. The position type is full-time staff. For details of the position, please refer to the "National Laboratory of Advanced Materials and Semiconductors (Preparatory) Public Recruitment of Scientific Research Talents Job Requirements List for July 2021" (see Attachment 1). 】

Huang Jie directly skipped the basic recruitment requirements, registration, qualification review, etc., and went directly to the recruitment position form at the bottom of the page.

From [Researcher], [Associate Researcher], [Assistant Researcher] to [Research Intern], [Scientific Research Assistant], almost all other scientific research positions are available except [Postdoctoral].

Generally speaking, many large laboratories only recruit associate researchers and below, and researchers rarely recruit.

Moreover, the salary is also very high. The annual salary of an assistant researcher starts at 300,000 yuan; the five social insurances and one fund are paid in full, and all-round benefits such as work subsidies, free physical examinations, paid annual leave, and maternity leave are enjoyed; the annual salary starts at 300,000 yuan for assistant researchers; Island settlement, children's schooling and other living supporting issues.

It can be said that except for the lack of organization, it is simply perfect.

However, it’s okay to have a staff or not. Nowadays, colleges and universities provide fewer and fewer staff places. There are always assessment tasks, and they will be fired if they are not completed. As long as the money is enough, it will be enough.

The first one on the recruitment form is [Platform]. There are four laboratories including lactide technology laboratory, photonic screen laboratory, carbon nanotechnology laboratory, optical core research center and one [other] in this recruitment.

This [other] made Huang Jie's eyes light up.

“This time Guanghua University’s recruitment is not limited to any research direction?”

【Job description:

1. Have innovative ideas for academic research in the field of materials (regardless of research direction, metal materials, organic polymer materials, inorganic non-metallic materials, composite materials, etc.), and propose disciplinary research directions based on the academic development trends in the field and research topics, with the ability to independently start groups;

2. Participate in laboratory management, talent training and external cooperation;

3.Can...]

After reading the job description, Huang Jie was overjoyed.

What does this description indicate?

It shows that as long as you have enough ideas, have the ability, and pass the evaluation of Guanghua University, you can set up a research group under this national laboratory and become the leader of the research group!

As we all know, Guanghua University recruits students only based on their ability and not their qualifications.

For example, the two chief scientists of this laboratory, one is 30 and the other is 32, would not exist at all in other laboratories.

No matter how capable you are, you have to endure it!

Huang Jie slowly exhaled a stream of turbid air.

"How about giving it a try?"

Suddenly, out of the corner of my eye, I saw the number of replies to this post: 148.

His face changed, and his heart skipped a beat. This post was posted less than an hour ago!

"No, is it so scary?"

Huang Jie didn't dare to hesitate, so he hurried home to prepare materials and submit his resume.

Lingnan Province.

Jing Gaojie is a senior high school student this year, and the institution he is admitted to is Guanghua University.

When I first filled out my application form, I had a quarrel with my family because of this.

I had just finished playing the game and was about to take a break when I unexpectedly came across the news about Guanghua University.

Looking at the salary package in the recruitment process, Jing Gaojie was particularly excited.

"Oh my god, didn't you say that biochemical environmental materials are one of the four traditional sinkholes? I think this salary is higher than that of computer finance!"

An assistant researcher's annual salary starts at 300,000 yuan. Even a scientific research assistant's annual salary is more than 100,000 yuan. Isn't this better than a 996 programmer?

With doubts, Jing Gaojie posted a comment under this news.

"You guys, didn't you say that the materials are terrible? Why are the salaries so high? I want to learn materials..."

Within five minutes, several people responded to him.

"Silly boy, he only gave you the wrong name, not the wrong nickname. Listen to my advice and don't get into the pit of materials!"

"There are some majors that are unemployed after graduation. Yes, I am talking about biochemical environmental materials + civil machinery! (Manual funny)"

“Real warriors dare to apply for materials science and engineering. (Squints and smiles)”

"The above is not entirely wrong. In fact, the pitfalls in materials refer to undergraduates. You can't learn anything at all in four years, but you won't be pitted after getting a doctorate. In fact, it is quite popular."

It wasn't until he saw the last reply that Jing Gaojie understood.

"Soga! From the looks of it, the material is pretty good!"

Jing Gaojie happily decided to take the material science route from now on.

Since so many people don’t dare to learn, it’s just a good time to buy at the bottom!

Get a Ph.D., enter a laboratory or a university, and get a high salary, and you can make a lot of money!

"Hey, I'm still smart."

Dear friends, monthly votes will be doubled tomorrow, so please wait until 0 o'clock before voting!

I'll try to update twice tomorrow. . .
