留学申请文书个人陈述范文

Dear _,

An experienced engineer of security printing with China’s Central Bank, I now would like to scale higher intellectual heights by pursuing Ph. D. studies in mechanical engineering at your university. I believe that my strong background in CAD has adequately prepared me to embark on this endeavor.

I have been working since 1996 for the People’s Bank of China, a Chinese version of the Federal Reserve, at its unique research institute of security printing, with the responsibility of designing the Chinese currency and the machinery to produce it. By engaging me in a variety of projects, the job afforded me ample exposure to cutting-edge developments in computer technologies, particularly in CAD software. I have, for example, recently redeveloped a purchased CAD (Computer Aided Design) software to make it more suitable for our own purposes. By adding our own part/subassembly to the database and make our own drawing criteria, we have achieved dramatically better efficiency.

My job performance, which has won me professional respect from all of my colleagues, was achieved thanks to the strong background I acquired as a student in computer science. My undergraduate GPA ranked first among the 63 students of classmates in mechanical department, for which I was awarded first-class and second-class prizes many times. My graduate GPA ranked among the top 4% of the 105 students in my year, which won me the “San Hao” scholarship every year during the three years of my graduate studies.

Unlike many other Chinese students, who are content with performing well in exams, I made a point of learning through my own hands-on experiences. In the Master’s program at the Beijing Institute of Printing, I gained an in-depth understanding of artificial intelligence, including expert system and genetic algorithm, especially in neural network. For my thesis, I programmed a multi-level BP neural network with C language to analyze my mathematical model, and applied much of my knowledge in optimization. I thus became able to program with a host of different computer languages, especially C++, with which I helped my graduate advisor to design a paper-cutting machine. To analyze the mechanism statically and dynamically, I programmed a software system to analyze and emulate it on screen. In undergraduate studies, I had often programmed with Fortran77 and the Basic language.

Upon the completion of my Master’s studies, I easily passed the doctoral record examination in CAD/CAM of Beijing University, one f the top universities in China. But I gave up the opportunity in order to gain more practical experience in the industry. The decision proved to be right, as it guaranteed me better access to sophisticated facilities, such as state-of-the-art personal computers. With the People’s Bank of China, I have thus accumulated solid expertise in many kinds of operating and application software systems, particularly in CAD. I now have a firm grip on the latest developments in computer science in China.

The challenges I met and the successes I achieved at the People’s Bank have not only endowed me with confidence but also fired off my desire to further improve myself. I have enjoyed high-quality and efficient production with the use of a kind of PC-based CAD software, MDT, developed by Autodesk Corporation. I now have a dream: some day, every person can design his favorite product with some sort of CAD software, and then search for an ideal factory over high-speed internet its production; and the factory will put specifications of the product, as it has received them via the high-speed internet into its CIMS, and out pops the product, as designed, at the end of the factory’s production line. It is a beautiful dream for every engineer, but many difficulties the speed of data-transfer and how to manage the product data among CAD, CAM, CAPP and CAE systems. These questions are fascinating, and I would like to come up with my own answers to them.

To prepare myself for advanced studies in your country, I have persisted in improving my English proficiency. As demonstrated by my score of 700 (96%) in the verbal section of GRE, I now have an adequate command of English for undertaking graduate studies in your program.

After carefully comparing the strengths of many universities, I find Mercy University particularly suited for my purpose. It has got the best combination of quality faculty, many state-of-the-art facilities, and an intriguing academic environment. Currently, China still lags significantly behind Western countries in mechanical engineering. I hope that, with a few years of graduate studies under your seasoned guidance, I will be able to return to my motherland and help bring mechanical engineering in my country to international standards.

Although my ultimate objective is a Ph. D. degree, I am willing to do a Master’s degree if necessary. In either case, I would like to concentrate my studies in one or a combination of the following areas: CAD, CAM, CIMS, Computer graphics, Mechanical design, Mechanical manufacturing, Optimization, Artificial intelligence, and Robotics. Your favorable evaluation of my application will be highly appreciated.

Yours sincerely,

丹麦留学三所顶尖院校介绍

1. 哥本哈根大学

哥本哈根大学是欧洲顶尖的大学之一，校园位于丹麦繁荣的首都中心。该校在社会科学和人文学科方面一直有较高的成就。

该大学是一个成熟的研究中心，属于的国际研究大学 联盟，一个研究密集型机构网络，还包括加州大学伯克利分校、牛津大学、剑桥大学和耶鲁大学。

虽然该大学的许多课程都是丹麦语教学，但哥本哈根用英语教学的本科和研究生课程也很多，从实验医学到神学等各个领域。大学实行学分制，让学生每学期有机会在不同学校修读新课程，因此，这里的学生比英国或者其他国家的学生更具灵活性。

该大学成立于1479年，培养出了无数有影响力的毕业生，如第一个测量光速的天文学家Ole Rümer。的校友还包括两位丹麦新任首相拉尔斯·莱克·拉斯穆森和海勒·索宁-施密特。该大学有一个成熟和广泛的校友网络，可以为即将毕业的学生提供丰富的资源。

2. 奥胡斯大学

奥胡斯是丹麦朱特兰半岛东海岸的一个城市，奥胡斯大学校园位于该市中心。作为一家的研究型院校，奥胡斯大学还是一所以艺术学科闻名的大学。

奥胡斯大学有60多门由英语教授的本科和研究生课程。丹麦绿卡计划允许国际学生在学位课程结束后六个月内留在丹麦，奥胡斯还设立了专门的就业信息库，帮助毕业生在这段时间找到适合自己专业领域的工作。

前北约秘书长安德斯·福格·拉斯穆森是奥胡斯的校友，而引导了哈佛大学一个既能减慢光的传播速度又能停止光线运动团队的物理学家莱恩·豪(LeneHau)也毕业于该校。谷歌地图联合创始人拉斯穆森(与安德斯没有关系)也曾就读于此。

3. 丹麦科技大学

丹麦科技大学(DTU)位于哥本哈根以北15公里处，在2007年与其他五个研究中心合并后，一直处于欧洲大陆工程院校的前列。

本科课程以丹麦语或英语授课，工程学学士学位等学位都是以英语授课。以现代工程为重点的硕士课程是全英语授课。该大学还提供丹麦语会话课程，并为所有外国交换学生提供住宿。

该大学进行的突破性研究包括创建半透明混凝土的工作，该计划是欧盟资助的 Brightwall 项目的一部分，该项目涉及将光纤嵌入混凝土以创建筛网。

诺贝尔文学奖得主亨里克·庞托皮丹在该大学还是理工大学时就读于此。近年来，优秀的毕业生包括第一位在太空中飞行的丹麦人安德烈亚斯·莫根森和丹麦国际足球运动员埃比·桑德。

丹麦留学衣食住行注意事项

一、衣

先要了解这里的气候情况，作为一个四面环海的亚寒带的国家，这里拥有夏天不热，冬天较冷的特色，不过冬天的假期会比较长，所以大家准备和购买衣服，应该以厚和较厚的为主。

平时购物先看看折扣，或者趁着换季的时候再去买，这样能够省下不少的钱;而且购物选择信用卡，很多商场会有信用卡专属的优惠，能够享受不低的折扣，省钱应该是大家要特别关注的。

二、食

北欧的餐饮习惯，在丹麦有着很明显的表现，这里的西餐种类丰富，基本上很少有中餐和其他菜系，常见的是面包、沙拉、汉堡、薯条、培根、各种烹饪方式的牛肉、蔬菜汤等。

而且这里的厨房是开放式的，如果大家想自己做饭的话，很多烹饪的方式，如炒、煎、炸等，要特别注意油烟的问题，一定要开好抽油烟机，不然可能会引起烟雾报警。

三、住

留学生的住宿，基本上都是租房来解决的，因为提供宿舍的学校数量比较少，而且本身的供应也不够，与其走独木桥，不如慢悠悠的安排租房的事宜，大家会有比较充足的时间。

而大家的选择，一般来说会以合租优先，租住单人的小套间价格会比较贵，多人套间平摊的费用会相对便宜，大家在平时的生活中还能够互相进行帮助。

四、行

大家所熟悉的出行方式，在丹麦也是常见的，公交和地铁的线路很发达，大家出门会非常的方便，建议办卡可以享受折扣，而且使用起来也会方便一些，价格会比国内贵一些。

而到了丹麦之后，你会发现骑自行车的年轻人数量非常多，如果大家住的地方距离学校的路程并不远的话，也可以买一辆车，这样出行还会更加方便。
