He has been to a dozen or so countries where he conducted research and published a large number of academic papers in collaboration with mathematicians from around the world. He has been invited to speak at numerous important international conferences. He credits his being able to constantly break new ground in his academic research to the help and guidance of his teachers, including Prof. Cheng Minde from Peking University, a former member of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and Prof. Alan McIntosh from Australia, fellow of the Australian Academy of Science. “It’s important for students to have good teachers or mentors to guide them, until they are academically mature enough to produce their own fruits.” In recent years, UM has launched a series of reform measures, with the goal of becoming a world-class with regional characteristics and equal emphasis on teaching and research, a university that produces outstanding graduates through an international-standard mode of operation, excellent teaching and innovative research. As one of the foundational subjects, maths naturally rector, Prof. Wei Zhao has spared no effort to develop our department,” remarks Qian Tao. “He broke through the misconception that Macao doesn’t need an undergraduate programme in maths, and supported the launch of an undergraduate programme in maths. Also we search internationally for outstanding professors through a very strict selection process. Usually we would select only a few out of several hundred applicants. So I sincerely believe UM’s faculty will become stronger and stronger.” With four master’s students, six PhD students and three postdoctoral students to supervise, two courses to teach, and probably two more new students to take under his wing next year, Qian Tao expects the coming days to be even busier. But he knows he will enjoy every minute. “Young people must have interests and direction, and once they decide what they want to do with their life, they should go for it and not give up easily. As teachers, we should encourage our students to pursue their goals,” says Qian Tao. 錢濤鼓勵學生要有自己的興趣和方向，不斷尋找追求自己的目標。 Qian Tao encourages his students to have interests and pursue their goals 29
