General Introduction
I am a third year master major in automation at Shanghai Jiao Tong University, P.R.China.With tremendous interest in Industrial Engineering, I am writing to apply for acceptance into your Ph.D.graduate program.
Education background
In 1995, I entered the Nanjing University of Science & Technology (NUST) -- widely considered one of the China’s best engineering schools.During the following undergraduate study, my academic records kept distinguished among the whole department.I was granted First Cla Prize every semester, and my overall GPA(89.5/100) ranked No.1 among 113 students.In 1999, I got the privilege to enter the graduate program waived of the admiion test.I selected the Shanghai Jiao Tong University to continue my study for its best reputation on Combinatorial Optimization and Network Scheduling where my research interest lies.
At the period of my graduate study, my overall GPA(3.77/4.0) ranked top 5% in the department.In the second semester, I became teacher aistant that is given to talented and matured students only.This year, I won the Acer Scholarship as the one and only candidate in my department, which is the ultimate accolade for distinguished students endowed by my university.Presently, I am preparing my graduation thesis and trying for the honor of Excellent Graduation Thesis.
Research experience and academic activity
When a sophomore, I joined the Aociation of AI Enthusiast and began to narrow down my interest for my future research.In 1997, I participated in simulation tool development for the scheduling system in Prof.Wang’s lab.With the tool of OpenGL and Matlab, I designed a simulation program for transportation scheduling system.It is now widely used by different research groups in NUST.In 1998, I aumed and fulfilled a sewage analysis & dispose project for Nanjing sewage treatment plant.This was my first practice to convert a laboratory idea to a commercial product.
In 1999, I joined the distinguished Profeor Yu-Geng Xi\'s research group aiming at Network flow problem solving and Heuristic algorithm research.Soon I was engaged in the FuDan Gene Database Design.My duty was to pick up the useful information among different kinds of gene matching format.Through the comparison and analysis for many heuristic algorithms, I introduced an improved evolutionary algorithm -- Multi-population Genetic Algorithm.By dividing a whole population into several sub-populations, this improved algorithm can effectively prevent GA
from local convergence and promote various evolutionary orientations.It proved more efficiently than SGA in experiments, too.In the second semester, I joined the workshop-scheduling research in Shanghai Heavy Duty Tyre plant.The scheduling was designed for the rubber-making proce that covered not only discrete but also continuous circumstances.To make a balance point between optimization quality and time cost, I proposed a Dynamic Layered Scheduling method based on hybrid Petri Nets.The practical application showed that the average makespan was shortened by a large scale.I also publicized two papers in core journals with this idea.Recently, I am doing research in the Composite Predict of the Electrical Power system aisted with the technology of Data Mining for Bao Steel.I try to combine the Decision Tree with Receding Optimization to provide a new solution for the Composite Predictive Problem.This project is now under construction.
Besides, In July 2000, I got the opportunity to give a lecture in English in Asia Control Conference (ASCC) which is one of the top-level conferences among the world in the area of control and automation.In my senior year, I met Prof.Xiao-Song Lin, a visiting profeor of mathematics from University of California-Riverside, I learned graph theory from him for my network research.These experiences all rapidly expanded my knowledge of English and the understanding of western culture.
I hope to study in depth
In retrospect, I find myself standing on a solid basis in both theory and experience, which has prepared me for the Ph.D.program.My future research interests include: Network Scheduling Problem, Heuristic Algorithm research (especially in GA and Neural network), Supply chain network research, Hybrid system performance analysis with Petri nets and Data Mining.
Please give my application materials a serious consideration.Thank you very much.研究生期间你的计划(plans in the postgraduate study)
First,I hope I can form systematic view of .As for ,my expre wish is to get a complete comprehension of the formation and development as well as .If poible,I
will go on with my study for doctorate degree.
In a word,I am looking forward to making a solid foundation for future
profeion after two years study here.
If luckily I got the chance to learn environment engineering in Tongji
University,I will concentrate on the study and research in this field.First,I will hard to learn the theoretical knowledge,constructing a solid base for my future work；Second,I
would like to do some practical work with the help of the supervisor and clamate.And through this,I can get something that cannot be acquired from the textbooks.I
believe after 2 years of learning,my dream will finally come true……
First of all,I love my major.Chinese literature is the symbol of the start of Chinese literary modernization.It plays an important part in modernization of our citizens\'thoughts.What’s more,modern literature is very close to our daily life and it can deeply reflect the styles and features of our society.I am fascinated by the great masters refreshing or warm or profound styles as well.But I am not easily satisfied with such superficial knowledge.I hope I could have a better understanding in modern literature by studying further.This is a very important reason for me to take
the postgraduate exams.
Next,I love the feeling in the university.It is full of youthful spirit.And I am deeply attracted by the scholarly atmosphere.And the most important,it\'s my great
honor to open my ears to your teaching.
Finally,I want to talk about a very practical problem.That is my dream of becoming a teacher in the university.I want to realize my dream and make myself to be a well-qualified person.I think the postgraduate studies can enrich my knowledge
and make me competent in my future job.
That\'s my simple and clear reasons why I took the postgraduate exams INTUCTION:
Thank you for giving me the chance to interview and it is my pleasure to introduce myself to you.My name is Wang Chenghua.I major in ……and I will graduate from the……..Medical University in July, 2006.Hope a chance to work and develop in your department.
During the past three years, under the strict guidance of my tutor, profeor ……in college of ………, I have learned systematically the theory of profeion and got the basic manipulative skills about ……..With the help of my supervisor, I have succefully finished the subject “……… ” and grasped some experimental skill , such as cell culture, DNA extraction and other molecular biology technique; abstraction, separation, …....
I paed the CET band 6 test in2002, after that, I tried my best to learn Medical English and mastered a lot of profeional vocabulary.I am good at listening, speaking, reading and writing..I can manipulate computer proficiently and master Microsoft Office software, also be familiar with SPSS and Photoshop, etc.
During three-year study in research, I studied hard and strived for excellence in our field.I benefit from working together with excellent colleague.I developed quality of diligence, responsibility, kindne and honesty.My internship in college of …..could qualify me for this job, and I believe I can be fit for the position quickly.I am looking forward to working in your department.If I am admitted, I will be thankful and try my best to work for you.
Thank you very much.
