He, together with Tsung-dao Lee, received the 1957 Nobel prize in physics for their work on parity nonconservation of weak interaction. Yang naturalized as a United States citizen in 1964. Yang was born in Hefei, Anhui, China, his father Yang Ko-Chuen (simplified Chinese: pinyin: Yang W zh ) (1896-1973) was a mathematician and his mother Luo Menghua ( ) was a housewife.

In the same year, as a second year student, Yang passed the entrance examination and studied at the National Southwestern Associated University. He received his bachelor's degree in 1942, the thesis being about the application of group theory to molecular spectra, under the supervision of Wu Ta-you ( ) (1907-2000). He continued to study graduate courses there for two years under the supervision of Wang Zhuxi ( ) (1911-1983), working on statistical mechanics. In 1944 he received his master's degree was awarded a scholarship known as the Boxer Indemnity (simplified Chinese: traditional Chinese: pinyin: G ngz peiku n), a scholarship set up by the United States government using the funds raised from the money China was forced to pay out following the Boxer Rebellion.
