申請(qǐng)的是美國大學(xué)的磁性液體專業(yè),下面是我下PS的一些個(gè)人感觸和我的范文。
1、PS主要寫什么?
你過去做了些什么(主要是研究經(jīng)歷)?產(chǎn)生了什么影響?未來想做什么(為什么選擇某個(gè)學(xué)校)?
2、如何寫PS? 美國留學(xué)文書寫作步驟:研究,研究,再研究
3、實(shí)例分析
以下結(jié)合我的PS談?wù)勔恍┘?xì)節(jié)。
In the secondterm of my freshman year, I took an elective course called Preparation of Nano-ferrofluid, taught by Prof. XXX. In this class, I learned cutting-edgeinformation about the preparation, performance and application of ferrrofluid. Aftercompleting this class, ferrofluid became an important part of my universitylife. I was interested in the fluid at its first spike and decided to completeresearch about its field-induced interfacial phenomenon.
UndergraduateInnovative Education Foundation:我們學(xué)校的特色,創(chuàng)新教育基金項(xiàng)目,類似于國家大學(xué)生創(chuàng)新性實(shí)驗(yàn)計(jì)劃 (http://innovation.hust.edu.cn/innovation/index.jsp) ,相信211,985學(xué)校的同學(xué)對(duì)國家大學(xué)生創(chuàng)新計(jì)劃并不陌生,這是體驗(yàn)研究的途徑。
At first, I feltdiscouraged that the experiment had not gone well, since I had spent so muchtime preparing for it. The encouragement of Prof. XXX and my reviewing andrevising the previous research strategy, however, gave me the strength toproceed. After several other elaborate tests, the display effect progressed. Icould present the spikes to people through electric control. However, I wantedto make the display more exciting, working to control the movement of ferrofluidvia the voice of people. As always, I moved heaven and earth to fulfill mygoal. But, I failed again, and therein discovered that I have a lot to learn,such as voice control technique.
直言不諱,談?wù)撟约撼醮巫鰧?shí)驗(yàn)時(shí)遭遇的困難、失敗之處以及如何解決的,體現(xiàn)主動(dòng)性。
After completingthis project, I began to think more about the scientific principles behind theartistic field-induced phenomenon of ferrofluid spikes. Consequently, I appliedfor and began a second project in an effort to solve quantitative analysisproblems regarding ferrofluid’s behavior on a special magnetic body in extra-magneticfield. I devoted weekends and holidays to my research, even forsaking the ChineseNew Year with my family. After consulting with not only my Chinese professors,but also with overseas academics, such as Dr. xxx and Prof. xxx(這個(gè)有關(guān)如何陶瓷的,詳見陶瓷部分)Unfortunately, however,given my dedication to my research, my studying for the GRE and other personalpressures, my GPA suffered in my third year of college. Yet, I remain confidentin my academic prowess. I won many scholarshiPS every year for my distinguishedperformance both in study and research, which covered my tuition and living expenses.

Ferrofluid issmart and versatile. Indeed, it has its own curiosity and interest, which isexpressed in its always trying to find the max flux and shape itself withoutlosing its essence and key features. Similarly,whether I succeed or fail, my objective has always been and always will be thesame: to search constantly for the new and the interesting. The article Magneticfluid and nanoparticle applications to nanotechnology written by Prof. xxx and my private communication with him has expanded my vision and instilledin me many potential research ideas. At MIT, The Research Laboratory ofElectronics and nanoEECS will give me the opportunity to enjoy state-of-the-artequipment and both multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary research. Finally, thepersevering spirit of MIT founder Doctor Rogers also impresses me. I believethat pursuing a Ph.D. at MIT will allow me to continue on my search for the manyqualities of ferrofluid as well as prepare me for my end goal of finding a goodposition in the academic world, perhaPS as a faculty member of a University, orjoining the Ferrotec Corporation, or maybe even becoming an industrialscientist like Dr. xxx
These ambitions may be lofty, but I have the confidence that I can reach my goals viacompleting a Ph.D. at MIT.
主要談及為什么選擇MIT。在談及教授時(shí),我現(xiàn)在想起來都有點(diǎn)后怕,因?yàn)槲抑徽劶傲艘粋€(gè)教授,這是要冒風(fēng)險(xiǎn),建議大家在寫時(shí),寫若干個(gè)教授,同時(shí)不要 用肯定的語氣,“maybe”。我的最后一段基本上都是這種結(jié)構(gòu),先談某個(gè)教授的某篇文章給了我ideas,然后談及實(shí)驗(yàn)室設(shè)備,最后談到自己的職業(yè)規(guī) 劃。
對(duì)于Why XXX university or why XXX department這類問題,其實(shí)各大學(xué)校,各大系都已經(jīng)在他們主頁上說了出來,只不過有時(shí)不是那么明顯。你要做的就是寫出真正這個(gè)學(xué)校吸引你的是哪方 面,當(dāng)然全部照搬學(xué)校的說辭肯定是不對(duì)。比如某個(gè)學(xué)校的motto吸引了你,VT的motto“Ut Prosim (That I MayServe)”就吸引了我。再比如某些學(xué)校的labrotation可以讓你靈活選擇,同樣都可以寫。
我的PS能夠?qū)懙竭@樣,主要?dú)w結(jié)于我平時(shí)的積累,我每天,每個(gè)月,每學(xué)年都會(huì)反思、都會(huì)去總結(jié)自己走過的路。當(dāng)我要寫PS時(shí),翻看著以前記錄下的每一步,每一個(gè)腳印,自己都禁不住流淚。我想首先應(yīng)該感動(dòng)自己,然后才有一種感染力去感染別人,感動(dòng)教授。
