留学动机信也称留学计划书,是申请出国留学期间必须递交的重要材料。它的目的在于让申请者清楚的表达出来个人基本情况、申请学校及专业的原因以及未来的职业构想。和留学群小编一起来看看如何写一篇合格的动机信。
我们根据这3个部分逐一说明
1--个人基本情况:与个人简历不同,这里的个人基本情况是要着重表述个人的学习和工作期间的主要业绩。
2--申请原因:明确阐述申请某某学校以及某某专业的理由,要告诉校方这个学校为什么吸引你,学习这个专业对你有什么帮助。
3--未来职业构想:具体说明在毕业之后,你准备从事的工作。切忌使用贡献、奉献、报效之类空洞的词汇,而应该表明去什么企业、公司,在什么职位上负责什么工作,并且最好把预期的年薪也写出来。也许很多学生会说:以后的事情现在怎么能知道?其实,学校就是想了解你是否有明确的求学目的,并允许学生有根据、符合逻辑的设想。
留学动机信一定要具体并且全文贯通、有前因和后果,按照西方人的说法就是有逻辑性。在撰文时,一定要以具体事例配合你所表达的中心思想,使文章显得生动。总之一句话:具体、生动、逻辑性强、中心思想明确。
已下是一篇动机信样本:
My name is Alvaro Bernal; I’m student of 3rd Year of Medicine in Coquimbo city, 4th Region of Chile. I have made this letter because I am very interested about having an exchange in your country in the city of Bonn. I think that Germany has a lot chances to learn basic sciences. Personally, i like all the topics related with neuroscience and molecular biology. 我的名字是阿尔瓦罗贝纳尔;我在科金博市智利第四区一名三年级的医学院学生。我写这封信是因为我非常有兴趣在你的国家波恩城市来学习。我认为德国有很多机会学习基础科学。就我个人而言,我喜欢研究与神经科学和分子生物学有关的所有主题。
Optogenetic technique seems an excellent way to control and register the electric activity of neurons, and I think that it could be the beginning of a new therapeutical method and improve the life quality of patients with neurological diseases. Here in Chile this technique is not available yet, due this I think that is an amazing opportunity for me to learn about neurosciences, an area with a wide field for research and discovering. 光遗传学技术似乎能控制并记录神经元电活动的一种很好方法,我认为它可能是一种治疗神经系统疾病新方法,能够提高患者的生活质量。在智利的这项技术尚不可用,因此这次我觉得是我学习有关神经科学的一个很好的机会,也是为研究领域广泛的地区发现的机会。
I want to try to understand how the work in the laboratory is; i want to get experience on this, because I am thinking in developing my career in research more than in clinic area. I have known that your country has the last advances in medical research and I would like to bring to my country a little part of the knowledge that I would get there. 我想试着去了解实验室的工作是怎样的,我想在这方面取得经验,因为我正在考虑在我的职业生涯中更好的发展我的研究领域。我知道你的国家有医学研究的最后一个进展,我想把我的国家的一小部分的知识带到那里。
I consider myself as a passionate student, with many social abilities, I like working on team, and I am able to adapt quickly to the pressure and to a different way of work.
Finally I think that this is a big chance to meet great people, learn about German culture. I have read that Bonn has a lot of university life and is a city filled of history, and I want to seize this and also I want to have a good experience sharing with other students like me.我认为自己是一个充满激情的学生,有很多的社会经验,我喜欢在团队中工作,我能很快适应压力和不同的工作方式。
最后,我认为,这是一个伟大的机会,以满足伟大的人民,了解德国文化。我曾阅读过很多关于波恩有很多大学生活,这里是一个充满历史的城市,我想抓住这一个机会,我想把良好的经验分享与其他喜欢的学生。
