NJU Language Program WeChat groups

Anyone else attending Nanjing University this fall for language program? Would be interested to join any WeChat groups if anyone knows of any. I saw a post a few weeks ago but not sure if a group ever got made. We can also start one if no one knows of any.

Master's vs language program

Hello,

Was looking for some advice from those who did school and/or are working in China. I’m currently considering two options:

One is a master’s degree in Electronic Science where I personally know the professor who has his own startup, so would be a good path for work, I’m just not super interested in the subject and it would be a grind, and my background isn't super well aligned with it (I did CS, so I'd need to catch up a ton on physics). Also worried about making little progress on my Chinese if I did this option.

The other option is a year language program (I’m currently around HSK4), after which I would apply to other master’s programs more related to Management Science & Engineering. This option feels like it’d be more enjoyable but probably a lot more difficult to find a job down the road.

Has anyone done an engineering master's in China, working in a lab, etc.? How was the experience? Appreciate any input/opinions

Electronic Science & Engineering (Photonics) math/physics difficulty?

Hello, I am potentially joining a master’s program in electronic science and engineering. The professor I would be studying under specializes in photonics, x-ray technology, etc. Realistically how much math/physics is required and to what level would I need to be proficient to do well in a program like this? I did my undergrad in computer science, and to be honest math was not a strong suit of mine. Physics was so-so. The only math class I aced was discrete math, and that’s because the professor decided to teach it in Python lol. It’s been some years since I did my undergrad so I would have some catching up to do, but worried mostly about the math side, as I was especially weak in Calculus.

I know electronic science can be broad, was just curious about anyone’s perspectives who has worked / studied in the field. Any advice is very appreciated.
