一、套磁信模板
Dear Professor ********:
I am a master graduate student at Tsinghua Univ., Beijing China. I have sent to ****** Univ. my application for the Fall 1999 physics Ph.D. program. I find that my background seems perfectly fit your research in the area of ********. I wonder whether you can consider my eager wish of being one of your graduate students.
Born in ****, I enrolled in Huazhong Univ. of Sci.&Tech. (HUST) as the youngest Chinese undergraduate in 1993. In 1996 when I was 15 years old, I became the first HUST student who finished the 4-year undergraduate program in 3 years with the Bachelor of Engineering deGREe (major in optoelectronics) and the honor ***********. Then I enrolled in the Physics dept at Tsinghua Univ as the youngest graduate student in China. I received extensive research training that made me much experienced. I will get the Master of Science degree in June 1999.
In my past study I have had much fruitful research experience in ***********, especially in ************. I happen to be very familiar with the recent highlights in your research works, like ************. I am willing to further my interdisciplinary study with well-prepared knowledge in ************. Although younger than my classmates, I am confident that the academic endeavours I have made are more than what they have made. You can review my academic background from my PS and Resume which shall be at your department now.
You are in my view one of the most knowledgeable and authoritative scholars in the area of my planned doctoral study (refer to my PS please). I wish I can have the chance to take doctoral study under your direction. It will be the most helpful to my academic career if I can be your student. Moreover, very recently I have read several new papers of yours and got many new ideas. Therefore I am eager to be your student and learn from you the most helpful research skills.
As a result, I wish you can review my application, and give me an answer about my strong desire of being your student. I would be happy to act on your advice. Thank you very much in advance, I am looking forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely
******
二、套磁技巧
尽可能地定制套磁信,即使是模板,也最好加上一点和教授的研究内容相关的东西,能谈及他的论文的最好。
基本上讨论教授项目,论文的都给了回复。有的教授还会要求在邮件的主题上加特别的标示,方便他做邮件的过滤,这个时候最好看看教授主页的要求。有的教授会要求你做一个google site给他。有的会要求你最好看看他的论文,在套磁信里和他discuss一下,这些都要求你不能去海套。
在套磁信的文本后面附上一段小的CV。不要用附件的形式发送CV,事实证明附件没有教授会看。
套磁信的内容直接了当比较好,说你做过什么,有什么想法,对他的研究有什么看法,希望能够加入做研究,问他有没有opening。
一般这样教授发现你不是模板,都会给你回复。如果有opening就要开始做一些学术陶瓷。一般看看论文和project的介绍就可以了。个人认为,不要去提太多的问题,言多必失,更何况你之前未必对教授的研究有多了解。比较靠谱的方法,就是把教授的研究和你之前的项目,或者研究扯上关系,说说与我心有戚戚焉的话。不要不懂装懂比较好。如果你的研究和教授完全没有关系,你还在邮件里写的很happy,给教授的感觉就是不match.
选校的时候,根据自己将来可能套磁的教授的比例,进行排序。
教授太少就pass吧,毕竟出去拿RA的多,TA和fellowship少很多。然后根据你能套磁的教授的研究,略微修改下PS,如果胆子大点,在PS里可以提提教授的名字。
三、美国教授套磁信回复
1、肯定式回复
①欢迎加入我的科研课题小组。
②我同意接受你为我的准研究生。
③看了你的科研资料,对你非常感兴趣,希望有机会和你进一步面谈。
这时候,你可以就预推免的复试形式、范围与老师进行沟通交流,如果导师对你比较欣赏,就会提供一些信息,当然,这方面也可以通过与往届的学哥学姐交流得知。你也可以和老师进一步约面谈时间,如果时间不允许可以询问老师是否能电话沟通。注意一定要约在预推免的复试前,并在面谈前做好相应的准备工作,再次熟悉个人简历、复习专业知识、对老师近年发表的论文适当选读。
2、拒绝式回复
①不好意思,我今年的研究生名额已经招满。
②同学您好,我的课题组不接受跨专业招生。
③我只接受本校学生。
④因招收名额限制,请联系其他合适老师,祝你成功。
可能单凭一封邮件,老师对你的认识还比较片面,这时候也不要气馁,因为每个导师想要招收的学生都是不一样的,可以换一位导师试一试。
3、迂回式回复
①感谢你的致信,有兴趣可以报考。
②如果你得到了保研资格通知,再次联系。
③保研要看多方面的素质,只要努力准备,相信你一定可以。
④欢迎你来参加复试,期待你有好的表现。
即使导师没有明确答复,得体的事先联系至少可以增加导师对你的好感。所以要放平心态,如果你实力足够,不联系导师也同样能够保研成功。
