Professor Yang-Hui He studied at Princeton University, where he received his Bachelor of Arts in Physics, with a Certificate in Applied Mathematics and a Certificate in Engineering, Summa cum Laude. He then obtained a Certificate in Advanced Mathematics (Tripos) at the University of Cambridge, with Distinction. He went on to receive his PhD in theoretical and mathematical physics from MIT.
Yang continued with postdoctoral work in the University of Pennsylvania before joining Merton College, University of Oxford as the FitzJames Fellow in Mathematics and then the UK STFC Advanced Fellow in theoretical physics.
Yang joined City in 2010 as Reader in Mathematics. He is currently Professor of Mathematics and also holds the Chang-Jiang Chair Professorship and Qian-Ren Scholarship at NanKai University awarded by the Chinese Ministry of Education. He also remains a Tutor at Merton College, Oxford where he taught since 2005.
