高考

志愿

紧张的高考终于结束了，但在放飞自我之前，同学们还面临着另一个考验。志愿的填写不但关系着未来四年的学习生活，也与人生发展的道路密切相关。到底该如何选择呢？来听听昆山杜克大学环境研究中心的教授们怎么说！他们可是毕业于国内外各大著名高校的“地表最强战队”哦！

李彬彬，博士

环境科学助理教授

北京大学学士，密歇根大学硕士，杜克大学博士

学校和专业的选择，其实是第一个重大的人生选择，这个时候影响你的人会很多，你的父母，你的老师，你的同学。参考他们的意见的同时，要自己做好功课，你到底擅长什么，喜欢什么，以后可能想做什么，这是你对自己人生规划的第一步，如果做的好，可以省却后面很多事情。但这也不代表所有的选择都聚集在这一刻。那个时候已经因为生物竞赛确定保送北大环境学院，但当时我一心想进入生命科学学院，和那里的一个导师做研究。北大有转专业的选择，于是在第一年，我选修环境学院和生命科学学院同时都要求的课程，在大一结束时，参加考试，没有按照正常程序降一级，便转到了生科。所以，了解一个学校在这四年里给你的选择，因为很有可能你会发现，自己学习的专业和自己想象的不一样。

北京大学

这就像我转入到生科以后，发现其实并不需要转来也可以参与研究，学习的很多课程并不如在环境学院有用。当时炙手可热高考分数最高的生科，因为就业形势紧迫，出国压力也大，学生里面却弥漫着换专业、劝退的气氛。并不如外面所想的那样光鲜。如果有机会，多找找这个专业的学生、毕业生了解一下情况，课程、就业、保研、出国等后续选择。因为当时想要做保护生物学相关的事情，与社会经济相关，在北大同时修了经济双学位。当时很多其他同学是出于毕业以后找工作的目的出发，因为大部分只修生科的学生是需要继续读研或者出国的。不论出发点如何，一个学校和专业是否存在这样多样化、成熟的选择途径很重要。

总之，高考这一刻不代表一切，你有很多的机会来寻找和确定自己的方向，选择一个好的平台、一个选择机会更多的路是最重要的。如果你已经确定了方向，那就朝着最好的去努力。

汪舒怡， 博士

政府培训和专业教育项目主任

清华大学学士、硕士, 杜克大学博士

我以福建省理科第6名的高考成绩进入清华大学环境工程专业。当时选专业的时候比较迷茫，一方面是我对各个行业的职业前景并不了解，另一方面对自己擅长的和喜欢的领域并没有深度思考过。回头看看，其实高考那段时间没有精力来思考自己的未来，但又偏偏要在这个时候决定今后的职业，所以这样的专业录取模式并不科学，还是进入大学对每个学科都有点了解后再决定专业更合适。

清华大学

我在杜克大学拿到环境工程博士学位，毕业后到加州大学圣地亚哥分校做博士后。在那段时间里，我发现自己除了学术研究以外，也对真实世界的环境问题感兴趣。于是进了加州政府做环境管理方面的工作。这个选择其实满足了我的两点需求：影响力和安全感。目前我从事的工作虽然和环境并不直接相关，但是我在本科时受到的各方面交叉学科的教育让我在做这项工作时游刃有余。走上工作岗位之后，本科专业的重要性就逐渐下降，更看重的是人际交往中的沟通能力和写作能力。

张俊杰， 博士

环境研究中心主任、副教授

中国人民大学和清华大学双学士，清华大学硕士，杜克大学博士

1996年我在浙江省参加高考，那时候理科还是3+2（语数英+物化）。尽管当年高考成绩不是特别理想，但还是很幸运地进入了一个特殊的教育部试点项目，可以同时获得中国人民大学环境经济学和清华大学环境工程两个学士学位。由于跨校联合培养、文理兼修的缘故，大学5年把人大和清华的各种课程都学了个遍，其中一些基础课还是在北京理工大学上的。记得当时整日骑车穿行在中关村大街上，酷暑严寒风雨无阻，昔日的辛苦现在都成了美好的回忆。 

中国人民大学

本科双学位毕业之后，我又继续求学，相继获得了清华大学硕士和美国杜克大学博士学位。博士毕业后的第一份工作是在加州大学圣地亚哥分校当助理教授，在那里拿到了终身教职之后回国加入昆山杜克大学，参与创建环境项目。 

当年在考完之后正式分数出来之前估分填报志愿。填报大学志愿的时候，网络尚未普及，信息非常有限，几乎是靠着校长室外面张贴的招生广告来选择的。而对于专业的选择，仅靠着家里亲朋好友讨论的结果。尽管高考选择专业有很大的偶然性，但是我在本科学习期间对环境学科产生了浓厚的兴趣，并把它变成了职业。很多人在选择专业的时候担心未来的就业和待遇，其实无论是在哪个行业，只要能够成为顶尖专家，要相信就业市场是均衡的。

海外升学

John Ji, Ph.D.

环境政策硕士项目副主任，环境健康科学助理教授

约翰霍普金斯大学学士，哈佛大学硕士、博士

I applied to college from California, so I never had the opportunity to experience the gaokao entrance examination. The admissions process in the US is “holistic,” for better or for worse, giving weight to candidates’ “deeper qualities” as well as academics. Instead of sitting for one examination, I had to maintain a good high school grade point average (GPA), take the SAT and least three SAT II subject exams, as many advanced placement (AP) classes as possible, and also courses at my local community college. Additionally, we also had to make time to volunteer for community service, become leaders in school clubs, compete in science fair, play sports, and be involved in music or art. Finally, the college application should also enclose a reflective personal statement and recommendation letters from teachers and mentors. Once this is turned in, universities might arrange local alumni for a face-to-face interview to assess interpersonal skills. So as you can see, it is also difficult to do well in every task!

Johns Hopkins University (JHU)

When I arrive at Johns Hopkins University (JHU), I had no clue what I should do in the future. In high school, I was interested in science and technology, and since JHU has a strength in medicine, I chose neuroscience as my primary major. The liberal arts curriculum encouraged students to explore unfamiliar, challenging subjects. So during my junior year, I experimented with taking a humanities class called Contemporary International Politics, where I got the first glimpse of Walt’s three image analysis for conflicts in international systems. Initially, I struggled with the course because I never had so many writing assignments previously. But surprisingly, I enjoyed it and took many more classes in this area until I accumulated enough credits to for a second major in International Relations. Arduous at the time, I did benefit greatly.

Another serendipity during college molded my career path. One evening, by chance, I walked into a symposium given by a visiting professor named Jeffery Sachs, an economist working in international development. He spoke of the Millenium Development Goals (MDGs), poverty reduction, and public health. The lecture opened my eyes as I had no exposure to these concepts. So during my winter holidays, I read his book and articles on the internet to find out more. It was then that I discovered the field of epidemiology, a cornerstone of public health, which uses knowledge of natural sciences world plus statistical analysis to study human health and disease. For me, it was the perfect field; I enjoy applying mathematical modeling to biological science phenomena.

Harvard University

I went to Harvard University for graduate training and received my doctorate in Environmental Health. Today, I am a faculty at Duke Kunshan University using big data to find out how modifiable environmental factors can affect the health of populations in China.   

Selection of major in college is an important decision because it leads you down a certain path in life. But be aware that there is a butterfly effect -- and my advice is to take the opportunity to try something just a little bit challenging, and do something that makes you just a little bit uncomfortable. Perhaps taking a detour from your usual path will make all the difference.

环境研究中心副主任，环境政策兼职教授

北京语言大学学士，挪威奥斯陆大学硕士，荷兰阿姆斯特丹学博士

Why did I choose to go to China to study Chinese Language and Culture when I came out of college you might ask? My experience at the United World College sparked an even deeper interest in China for me, so when I was going on a gap year. 

I decided to spend some time in China and went to teach English at a private school in Qingdao. Being there made me realise that if I wanted to truly understand China I had to learn the language and to spend some significant time there, accumulating my own experiences and developing my own networks. So, I decided to give up my spot with the University of Edinburgh and instead I enrolled in a four year BA programm in Chinese Language and Culture at Beijing Language and Culture University. 

北京语言大学

This is a huge encouragement for someone who is studying a language. If you want to learn a language and learn it well, I think that there is no better way to do so than to do it in the country where it is spoken.

After my studies at the Beijing Language and Culture University I decided that it was time to spend some time in Norway again. I have always had an interest in the environment with a family that liked to spend a lot of time outdoors. I was also active in one of Norway’s largest environmental NGOs as a youth. When choosing the direction for my MA studies I wanted to focus on something which was close to my heart and interest so I enrolled in the interdisciplinary research Master programm at the Center for Environment and Development at the University of Oslo. 

University of Oslo

I was fascinated by the interdisciplinary approach at the Centre.  It employs a number of scholars from different backgrounds (economy, sociology, public administration, biology, physics and others) who are all researching and teaching about different elements of sustainable development. I also liked the prospects of obtaining hands on experience pertaining to developing and implementing interdisciplinary research projects. 

In the process of completing my MA thesis which focused on access to justice for victims of environmental pollution in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, 

Immediately after finishing my MA thesis I therefore started to develop research grants with Professor Van Rooij seeking to secure a paid PhD position for me to work under his guidance. At that time Professor Van Rooij was, and still continues to be one of the leading experts in the world on Chinese environmental law and regulation. In 2009 we got a grant from the Dutch Research Council and in 2010 I started my PhD studies at the University of Amsterdam.

University of Amsterdam

If I am going to sum this all up I think my study choices have been made more or less by following my heart and interests. I have decided to study under the guidance of scholars whom I share the same outlook on the world with and from whom I have learned so much more. My experience have also taken me many different places around the world and have given me the opportunity to develop a broad network in most corners of the world has been a great way also to a deeper life learning experience which of course has very much shaped me to be the person I am today.  

Moon Joon Kim, Ph.D.

环境经济学访问助理教授

韩国延世大学学士，美国北卡罗来纳州立大学

I graduated from Yonsei University in South Korea and majored economics. I chose economics because it is a pure science based on many theories and at the same time an applied science that can be applied directly to the real world. When you go to college, you will be given a chance to take courses in various subjects, which will help you find your area of interest. 

Yonsei University

Environmental economics was of my interest and, in particular, I was excited to learn to estimate the economic value of the goods that are not traded in the market, such as clean air and water. I went to graduate school to continue studying and completed my Ph.D. degree in environmental economics from North Carolina State University.

North Carolina State University

There are two criteria you can take when deciding upon your major: whether a major is in your area of interest, or the area in which you have strengths compared to others. The biggest difference between high school and college is that you can decide what to study. Choose your favorite field first. If you do not have a clear goal yet or have difficulty in your current field, finding the area where you have strengths can be the best alternative. Good luck!

选择学校与专业确实是人生的重要选择，但不是人生唯一的选择。希望老师们的分享能给你一些启发与鼓励。最后，原你听取前人的建议，也听从自己的内心！
