To be frank, as a first-year student who goes to the Ph.D. program directly with a bachelor degree, my academical background is not rich.
In 2004, I was admitted into the software engineering department of Tongji University in Shanghai. It is a very intensive program that cultivates students with both computer science courses and many practical courses. No kidding, our courses are twice as much as the courses in the CS department in Tongji. In my first 2.5 years in university, the courses start from 8am to 9pm almost everyday. In the evening, we should still work on different kinds of projects untill 2~3am next morning.
Unbelievable? Yes, we are the busiest undergrad students in Tongji, but as well, the placement of us is the best. The tough life has laid us a very solid technical foundation including C/C++, JAVA, SQL, .Net, J2EE, MFC, Mainframe, ...etc.
In my senior year, I got an chance to be an exchange student in Uppsala University, Sweden. It's very like State College since it's also a university city. I studied Distributed Systems and Software Arichitecture in Java there for three months.
In 2007, I started my internship in the Data Warehouse department in eBay. My major job in ebay is developing Data warehouse ETL applicaton based on Teradata, Appworx and shell programming.
My bachelor thesis is <Analysis of ETL and ELT models in Data Warehousing>. It is originated from my internship.
My background is very technical, there is not too much research there. But I have implemented many interesting projects based on my innovative ideas. I have designed a pulse diagnosis learning machine by using eBox. It can teach people the essence of tradition Chinese medicine -- pulse diagnosis. What's more, I have created a take out search enginee to help people find and order take out.
Right now, I am interested in many areas including HCI, security and web searching.

"as a first-year student who goes to the Ph.D. program directly without a bachelor degree"
Hi Miao. You have a bachelor degree. You jumped to a Ph.D. program without a master's degree though. ^^
