考博复试面试经验分享(附英文自我介绍)
来源:考博论坛
前几天,终于考博上线,考博初试成绩第一,收到了复试通知。
复试成绩还可以,排在专业第3位,主要原因是我的英语口语不太好。现把复试过程中的一点感受说一下,不对之处大家多多指正。
感受一:尽管有很多人说,博士面试是走形式,随便问问而已,但对于一般像样一点的学校和专业,还是有自己的面试主题.本人认为,那就是:既然是博士面试,那就要考察你的知识面是否广博,在我面试过程中,面试的七位博导的问题五花八门!我们不可能全部会答,但假如多数不会,显然是不可以的。
感受二:专业基础(或学科基础)还是比较重要的。我的专业是管理科学与工程,因此,面试过程中,导师们对运筹学的知识明显问得要多一些,有两位老兄因为运筹学的相关知识答得不好,而被刷掉。
感受三:反应能力。对实在不会的问题,就说不会,可以干脆一点。如了解一点,那就答慢一点,好好想想,导师们一般会给你时间的,但一定不要乱说。
感受四:必问问题就是博士期间的研究计划。
博士期间的的研究计划当然是越详细越好了,说明你对导师与研究方向极为熟悉,专业功底极为扎实,攻读过程中导师可以少费点力啊!
但一般而言,我们不会太详细,此时,一定要说自己非常有把握,真正熟悉的内容,宁缺勿滥!
当时我的回答是分为两个方面的想法,一方面将从事理论付诸实践方向研究,把所学专业方面的先进理论付诸于应用实践;另一方面,理论创新研究,如果有机会,会在相关模型设计、构建与方法创新有所突破。
感受五:也要了解一点回答问题的基本技巧,不要太呆板,太就事论事!
如以前炒的沸沸扬扬的北大初试第一名被淘汰现象,当时,导师们问那位倒霉者的问题是“你最喜欢的一本书是什么”,显然问题绝不是看上去的那么简单,实际是想让你说一下对专业的认识的。而那位倒霉者就说“喜欢费孝通的某一名著”,显然有点答非所问!一方面显示其出反应能力有缺陷,没搞懂导师到底想问什么:另一方面,失去了阐述自己对专业认识的机会。
有关补充:不同的学校面试要求会有所不同的,我的上述5点主要适用于比较严谨的学校而言!不太严谨的学校,有的学校仅导师提问,而其他人不提问的情况也有。
下面给大家分享一下我写的考博复试英语自我介绍
