Biography
Boedihardjo was born to an ethnic Chinese family in Hong Kong, with family roots in Anxi, China.Script error: No such module "Unsubst". Boedihardjo moved to the United Kingdom in 2005, when his older brother Horatio began studying at the University of Oxford.[3]
Boedihardjo finished his A-level exams in Britain at the age of nine years and three months, after attending Greene's College Oxford.[4][note 1] He also gained 8 GCSEs.[3] He was accepted at Hong Kong Baptist University, making him the youngest ever university student in Hong Kong.[5] The university tailored a special 5-year curriculum programme for Boedihardjo which he criticized as being too easy and unstimulating on the first day.[6][7] He obtained A−'s and B+'s in most of his mathematics courses in his first year, which got him on the Dean's List.[8] He was conferred a Bachelor of Science in Mathematical Science and a Master of Philosophy in Mathematics after completing his programme one year early in 2011.[9][10][11][12]
After graduating from Hong Kong Baptist University, Boedihardjo studied at Texas A&M University as a visiting scholar and then as a PhD student.[12][13] In 2017, Boediharjo took up the position of assistant adjunct professor at UCLA on a three-year contract,[14] a position he held until 2020.[15] He was a visiting assistant professor at UC Irvine from 2021 to 2022 before starting a postdoc at ETH Zurich, a position he held until 2023. He is currently an assistant professor of mathematics at Michigan State University.
