有些國(guó)家留學(xué)材料中有一項(xiàng)是動(dòng)機(jī)信,那么大家都知道該怎么寫(xiě)嗎?別擔(dān)心,出國(guó)留學(xué)網(wǎng)小編為大家整理了出國(guó)留學(xué)動(dòng)機(jī)信書(shū)寫(xiě)指南,希望可以給你幫助。
首先來(lái)看看書(shū)寫(xiě)內(nèi)容。
1.個(gè)人基本情況:
與個(gè)人簡(jiǎn)歷不同,這里的個(gè)人基本情況是要著重表述個(gè)人的學(xué)習(xí)和工作期間的主要業(yè)績(jī)。
2.申請(qǐng)?jiān)颍?/strong>
明確闡述申請(qǐng)某某學(xué)校以及某某專業(yè)的理由,要告訴校方這個(gè)學(xué)校為什么吸引你,學(xué)習(xí)這個(gè)專業(yè)對(duì)你有什么幫助。
3.未來(lái)職業(yè)構(gòu)想:
具體說(shuō)明在畢業(yè)之后,你準(zhǔn)備從事的工作。切忌使用貢獻(xiàn)、奉獻(xiàn)、報(bào)效之類空洞的詞匯,而應(yīng)該表明去什么企業(yè)、公司,在什么職位上負(fù)責(zé)什么工作,并且最好把預(yù)期的年薪也寫(xiě)出來(lái)。也許很多學(xué)生會(huì)說(shuō):以后的事情現(xiàn)在怎么能知道?其實(shí),學(xué)校就是想了解你是否有明確的求學(xué)目的,并允許學(xué)生有根據(jù)、符合邏輯的設(shè)想。
另外,在申請(qǐng)高等商學(xué)院的時(shí)候,學(xué)校還會(huì)特意讓學(xué)生談?wù)勛约旱膬?yōu)缺點(diǎn)和性格特征。
接著來(lái)看看寫(xiě)作原則。
1.專業(yè)原則
你在你的PS和RL里首先要寫(xiě)大量的專業(yè)性的東西,并且在寫(xiě)RL的時(shí)候尤其要以指導(dǎo)老師的口吻寫(xiě)很多你做實(shí)驗(yàn)的細(xì)節(jié)性的東西,并且說(shuō)你如何解決了一些決定性的問(wèn)題。因?yàn)檎l(shuí)都可以說(shuō)自己做了什么什么很難的東西,可是如何讓對(duì)方信服,就看這些細(xì)節(jié)性的東西了。就象去騙簽證官,如果你無(wú)法說(shuō)出一兩個(gè)專業(yè)名詞的話,即使有大學(xué)畢業(yè)證書(shū)證明你是哪所學(xué)校什么專業(yè)畢業(yè)的,也不能讓簽證官相信你確實(shí)是去美國(guó)上學(xué),而不是去打工或移民什么的。因?yàn)槿魏挝募伎梢栽旒?,而你的思想是造不了假的。你要盡量把你的思想給反映出來(lái)。道理是一樣的。
2.個(gè)性原則
我相信申請(qǐng)出國(guó)的大多數(shù)人都不是牛人。當(dāng)你不是牛人,無(wú)法向?qū)Ψ酱祰u自己是多么的聰明的時(shí)候,你就必須向?qū)Ψ秸宫F(xiàn)自己的個(gè)人魅力。當(dāng)你坐在計(jì)算機(jī)前開(kāi)始寫(xiě)作的時(shí)候,你一定要想清楚自己是什么樣的人,自己有什么優(yōu)點(diǎn)。
3.優(yōu)勢(shì)突出原則和實(shí)話原則
這兩個(gè)原則本來(lái)都不想寫(xiě),因?yàn)橛X(jué)得誰(shuí)都應(yīng)該知道的,可是考慮到可能還是有人沒(méi)能明白這個(gè)原則,所以還是得寫(xiě)。有一個(gè)朋友就是這樣的。他的第一篇PS給我看了,他談到了他父親的死對(duì)他的影響,談到了要為中國(guó)的富強(qiáng)做出貢獻(xiàn)(看的我好感動(dòng)),可是他對(duì)自己人生的閃光點(diǎn)卻只字未提。我對(duì)他說(shuō)要重寫(xiě),而且第一篇一個(gè)字也不能保留。他的PS應(yīng)該是這樣的:他于某某年以全年級(jí)第一名的成績(jī)被保送到北京大學(xué)化學(xué)系(并且此時(shí)要注明全年級(jí)有多少人),并且北京大學(xué)是全中國(guó)排名第一的大學(xué)。又因?yàn)樵诒本┐髮W(xué)學(xué)習(xí)優(yōu)秀,在多少多少人中脫穎而出,在某某年獲得年級(jí)或系里的獎(jiǎng)學(xué)金。并且又于某某年因?yàn)樵诙嗌偃酥信琶嗌倜?,被著名的北京大學(xué)保送到著名的中國(guó)科學(xué)院讀研究生,等等。
4.自信原則
西方人喜歡自我表現(xiàn),他們喜歡自信的人。不管你是寫(xiě)PS,還是去見(jiàn)簽證官,或是以后在課堂上做presentation,你都要牢記這個(gè)原則。所以自信原則是貫穿于你的PS始終的。你要象展示你的傳家寶一樣自信的向他們展示你閃光點(diǎn),也要以expert的語(yǔ)氣大談你做過(guò)的課題。所有你的這些語(yǔ)氣,都會(huì)為你贏得不少分?jǐn)?shù)的。
5.清楚原則
所謂的清楚原則,就是你的PS中沒(méi)有任何有疑問(wèn)的地方。就象寫(xiě)專業(yè)論文一樣,如果有縮寫(xiě),在出現(xiàn)的第一次,你一定要寫(xiě)出它的全稱,打個(gè)括號(hào)寫(xiě)上縮寫(xiě)(當(dāng)然是除了眾所周知的,譬如GRE,TOEFL之類的)。如果你拿過(guò)獎(jiǎng)學(xué)金,一定要象我在優(yōu)勢(shì)突出原則中寫(xiě)的那樣,要注明是在多少人的競(jìng)爭(zhēng)中拿到的。并且,你上的大學(xué)排名多少也一定要注明。因?yàn)橥鈬?guó)人是不可能非常清楚地了解中國(guó)大學(xué)的情況的,所以你一定要給別人留下清楚的感覺(jué)。這樣,你的才華才不會(huì)被埋沒(méi)。
6.簡(jiǎn)潔原則
這個(gè)原則來(lái)源于我看到的OF156表上,申請(qǐng)學(xué)生簽證時(shí)必須填的學(xué)習(xí)計(jì)劃。以后大家會(huì)看到,這一項(xiàng)中給的空格特別小,估計(jì)也只夠?qū)懴?0-40字的,而學(xué)習(xí)計(jì)劃則是多么龐大的一個(gè)課題??!
最后給大家?guī)?lái)一篇英語(yǔ)范文。
Dear Sir or_ Madam,
I appreciate that you can take time off your busy schedule to read my letter. This is a letter of my motivation to apply for the Master degree of Precision Manufacturing (MPM) at The University of Applied Sciences and Arts of Southern Switzerland (SUPSI).
First, allow me to introduce myself. My name is XXX. I’m a first grade postgraduate of Guangdong University of Technology (GDUT). My major is Mechanical Engineering and Automation. I get my bachelor degree in Mechanical Engineering and Automation at Wuhan University of Technology on 7th July 2011. After I graduated from my university, I worked in Jiangling Automobile Joint-stock Company for about 1 year. Then I took the Postgraduate Entrance Examination and was enrolled at GDUT at last.
There are some hearty reasons why I like SUPSI and the major of MPM.
Firstly, I am interested in MPM, for I have been studying in Mechanical Engineering and Automation since I started my university life. It’s well known that this major plays a foundational role of the developing of industry and it is easy for us to find a job. MPM, in my opinion, is a similar major with Mechanical Engineering and Automation. Exactly speaking, it’s the specialization and concretion of Mechanical Engineering and Automation. MPM in SUPSI based on a set of prominent and well balanced lectures that not only promote individual professional skills and cultivate their ability but also their creativity, management level and shape attitude. I think I can get more professional knowledge than I can get in land and extend my knowledge fields to enhance my competitive strength.
Secondly, SUPSI can offer me good teaching quality. SUPSI is one of the eight universities of Applied Sciences in Switzerland. The university focuses on education based on professional need and on applied research, and at the same time, it provides a practice-oriented education and offers a wide range of master’s programs. The educational goad of MPM at SUPSI is to shape new professional figures characterized by research and operate skills through an effective training path constantly merging research and education. For my part, I prefer practice-oriented education to pure research-oriented.
Thirdly, SUPSI can afford me a good environment to study. According to Global Competitiveness Report 2009-2010, Switzerland ranked number one among a total of 131 surveyed countries. It’s a reflection of a world-class capacity for innovation, combined with a highly sophisticated business culture. The country has a well-developed infrastructure for scientific research, with close collaboration between the leading research centers and industries. What’s more, the top-notch infrastructure, well-built education and health care systems as well as clean and beautiful environment all provide a safe, convenient, comfortable and healthy living environment for me to live and study.
Additionally, SUPSI gives a preferential tuition fee. The institution cooperates with our university. Due to cooperation between the Chinese and Swiss governments on this project, the fees are low. I think choosing to study at SUPSI can lower the financial pressure to my family. Furthermore, after graduating from SUPSI, I will become more competitive and enjoy a more positive prospect in future job market.
Finally, thank you for your reading again. I am seriously interested in studying at your university.
Looking forward to hearing from you and with best regards to you.
Yours faithfully,
XXX
