他入选美国工程学院院士之后


周末,翻看家里收到的杂志。其中有一本哥伦比亚大学工学院的校刊。


其中一篇文章,采访南加州大学教授Alan Willner。他在 2016年入选美国国家工程学院院士。摘要如下。


“There are about eight elected from electrical engineering this year, including people from academia and industry. What struck me is that I know so many truly excellent people who are better than I am but who aren’t in yet and should be. I feel very humbled by it.”


今年电子工程有八个人入选。我认识很多同行,他们比我优秀,却没有入选。我感到很谦卑。


Alan Willner 在哥伦比亚大学得博士学位,师从 Osgood教授。他评价他的教授:“Professor Osgood is the most fair-minded person I know: He has incredible intellectual integrity and personal honesty, and he taught me much more than how to be a researcher,” he said. “I didn’t realize until later how much I run my own group and treat my own students just like Professor Osgood did.”

Osgood教授是我认识的最公正的人。他有着令人难以置信的学术诚信和个人诚实。他教给我的东西,远远超出如何成为一个科学家。我后来才认识到我对我的学生的关系就是从Osgood教授身上学的。


I’ve been blessed for 25 years at USC with wonderful students and colleagues. With my students, I give them resources and try to get out of the way. It’s amazing,” he said. “I’m the team leader, but they’re better than I ever was. I stand on the shoulders of giants, and they are my students. Fifty percent of them work harder than me, 75 percent of them are smarter than me, and 100 percent of them are nicer than me. I’m inspired by them.


我很幸运在南加州大学的25年有很多优秀的学生和同事。对我的学生,我给他们资源,然后站在一边,不给他们挡道。他们很了不起。我是团队的领导,但他们比我厉害。我站在巨人的肩膀,这些巨人就是我的学生。百分之五十的学生工作比我努力。百分之七十五的学生比我聪明。百分之一百的学生比我和气。我从他们身上得到很多启发。


我查看Alan Willner的网页,他的14个学生,有9个来自中国。
