北理工国际双学位毕业生荣获澳大利亚国立大学奖章

　　2012年7月4日，澳大利亚国立大学专门致函胡海岩校长，祝贺我校2008级澳大利亚国立大学国际双学位学生——胡野青和郭婧两位女同学获得澳大利亚国立大学奖章（ANU University Medal）。
　　澳大利亚国立大学奖章是一项极高的荣誉，仅授予当年毕业生中极少数的佼佼者，每次获此殊荣者一般全校不足10人。获此殊荣的学生必须获得一等荣誉学士，并且在同届毕业生中取得突出学术成绩。今年7月，澳大利亚国立大学工学院仅有胡野青和郭婧两名同学获得该项荣誉。
　　在致胡校长的信中，澳方高度评价了两校合作关系和我校国际双学位学生，澳大利亚国立大学工学院在网站上发布胡野青和郭婧两位同学获得澳大利亚国立大学奖章的专题新闻（附后），介绍了我校的学术地位和国际化水平，认为工程专业女生较少，胡野青和郭婧获得此项荣誉显然是一项卓越的成就。

　　7月13日，在澳大利亚国立大学举行的毕业典礼上，校长亲自为胡野青同学颁发了荣誉学士学位和奖章，郭婧同学将参加今年年底的毕业典礼。
　　自2007年我校与澳大利亚国立大学开展本科生双学位合作项目以来，已有68名同学参加本项目，17名同学顺利获得了两校的学士学位。

　　胡野青和郭靖两名同学获得澳大利亚国立大学奖章证明我校学生具有优秀的学术能力，能够在世界一流大学的舞台上展示风采，取得杰出成就。

　　“Congratulations to all our graduating students,” said Professor John Hosking, Dean of the ANU College of Engineering and Computer Science (CECS).
　　“I am particularly pleased to note that two students from the Beijing Institute of Technology (BIT) and ANU joint program in Engineering will be awarded University Medals for their outstanding results.”
Both Ms Guo Jing and Ms Hu Yeqing will receive their Bachelor of Engineering with First Class Honours.
　　“These are the first BIT students to be awarded University Medals which are the epitome of undergraduate student achievements at ANU,” said Professor Hosking.
　　CECS entered into a partnership agreement with Beijing Institute of Technology (BIT) in late 2007. The agreement facilitates students completing the first two years of their degree at BIT and the final two years at ANU. Students receive a degree from both universities. The agreement limits the numbers to 20 high-achieving students each year.
　　“To further cement the BIT/ANU relationship, we entered an academic exchange agreement so that ANU hosts visits from BIT academic staff for one or two semesters with the aim of fostering research links between our two universities,” said Professor Hosking.
　　BIT is a highly regarded university in China and is a part of the prestigious ‘Project 985’ universities. There are only 39 Project 985 universities in China and they receive additional government funding to support their development into world-class universities.
　　“Guo Jing and Hu Yeqing join the ranks of a handful of female University Medallists in Engineering,” said Professor Hosking. “This is a remarkable achievement in itself given that we have fewer female students in engineering than is desirable,” he said.
　　“Well done!”
