Luo Yin, a professor at the School of Architecture of Tsinghua University, replied with his own experience that he is a relatively strong person in science, and mathematics and physics are stronger than liberal arts, but after studying architecture, he has changed a lot. "Architecture has a lot to learn, and it is a discipline involving three major fields: culture, science and engineering, humanities and arts."
Luo Yin said that these things take more time to learn, but they will cultivate a more comprehensive quality of students. "You're always going to have three qualities that seem to have little to do with each other, and you'll be able to experience everything you see in the world." After studying architecture, you can accept science and engineering things, humanistic things you also find very interesting, and you can see art exhibitions clearly. ”

Who is suitable for studying architecture? In Luo Yin's view, it is mainly to see whether the students themselves are interested. If you have both science and engineering literacy, architecture can be a good choice.
At the lecture, some students asked about the appearance and practicality of the building. Luo Yin said that the appearance of the building is important, but also to see that the building is to solve the problems in people's lives. Some creative designs will solve the troubles encountered in life more reasonably and efficiently through methods that ordinary people cannot imagine. Luo Yin said to the students: "When you have this kind of vision, you will find that the world is so wonderful. ”

"Listening to the teacher talk about architecture feels very beneficial, I have no contact with architecture at all, but I heard that there are many ancient buildings in China that are relatively intact, and I think architecture is quite interesting after listening to the class." Chen Jingxian, a Japanese student studying at Jinan University, said she had visited the Temple of Heaven before and observed China's unique architectural style. She likes the ancient buildings of Beijing's red bricks and green tiles, "the colors are very bright".

After the lecture, the students "checked in" and took photos at famous attractions in Tsinghua, such as the Second School Gate, Mizuki Tsinghua, and Lotus Pond Moonlight.
Zhang Pianyi, an ethnic Chinese from Portugal, noticed that the road on the campus of Tsinghua University is very long, there are many tall trees, and the appearance of the building is also magical. In his view, the new Tsinghua Academy is very similar to a foreign football stadium. Zhang Pianyi has a sister who is studying at Tsinghua University, and he took a lot of photos when he visited the Tsinghua campus. He said that he really wanted to tell his sister what he saw and heard today. (End)
