Study Plan



Dear Visa Officer:


It’s my great honour that I’ve been admitted to the University of Toronto in the program
of
Social
Science
as
a
transfer
student.
(Although
the
offer
letter
didn’t
mention
the
specific
major, an email that sent from U of T later made sure of the program. The copy version of the
email is enclosed with the Study Plan.) The program will begin on September 13th, 2010. And U
of T marked me as “year:3” student.



A brief introduction of my background and my choice of sociology


My
name
is
Yingchu
Mao,
born
on
June
1st,
1989,
in
Hangzhou,
China.
Currently,
I
am
a
sophomore
of
Wuhan
University
，majoring
in
Editing
and
Publishing
Science.
Last
semester,
I’ve
got
a
chance
to
attend
the
AIESEC
(one
of
the
largest
students’
organization

around
the
world)
Youth
Leadership
Conference in
Wuhan.
The
conference
focused
on
Non- governmental
Organization topic
with
several
excellent speeches made by Julie, Wei Zhang and Cong Du who worked in Wall Street for more than
10
years before
he
quitted and
devoted himself to NGO-the Chiheng
Foundation have left
me
a
deep
impression and arouse my intense interest on NGO.


What’s
more,
I
happened
to
have
applied
for
an
internship
in
Xiaoshan
Nanshi
Community
Center
last summer vacation. And I found out that successfully running a NGO is everything but simple.
You should be well equipped with a strong knowledge background i
n social science. I feel I’ve
got
that
passion
to
study
this
issue.
Meanwhile,
I
was
attending
a
sociology-related
course
which
I found social science a magical field using a variety of unique methods and skills exploring
individual and collective ways of thinking, feeling and acting.


Since going abroad to study the advanced knowledge is what I always have in mind, I started
to browse some famous universities’ websites and finally made a decision to abandon the major
I’m
not
interested
and
to
transfer
to
Canada
given
Chinese
social
sc
ience
is
still
in
the
beginning
stage and many theories are introduced from western countries.


My Choice of University of Toronto in Canada


First, Canada is a peaceful, beautiful and harmonious country which means two things to me.
First
it
means
that
the
country
can
provide
the
international
students
the
high-quality
education
at
lower expenses
relative
to UK and US.
And second, those
features
just well show the
sociology
theories are closely combined with the practice within this country. Besides, Can
ada’s social
science
is
covering
more
and
more
topics
and
the
level
of
specialization
is
high,
which
indicates
the highly development of the discipline.


Second, University of Toronto is ranked one of the world’s best universities with a long
history. UT was established in 1827, one of the oldest universities around North America. The
richness
embedded
in
its
history
nurtures
the
ground
for
studying
humanities
disciplines.
Matter
of
fact,
UT
has
a
strong
academic
background
of
those
social
science
subjects.
And
UT’s
Sociology
classes discussed a wide range of social issues which fit my interest a lot and will be quite
useful in NGO operation.


Plans to achieve my academic goal


First,
because
I
applied
as
a
transfer
student,
I
must
try
my
best
to
catch
up
with
the
regular
students there. So I keep practicing English every day, trying to read some original novels and
monographs. Only in this way can I conquer the language barrier as soon as possible when I start
my study in UT.


Then although I’m a transfer student who can receive transfer credits to reduce the length
of completing the program, I know my current major is not similar with sociology, so that means
I
have
to
work
harder
and
take
some
first
and
second
level
courses
to
make
up
the
missing
credits.
If possible I will make use of the summer vacation to take some courses.


Simultaneously, I know that the practice related with the program will include some field
research.
I
wish
that
I
can
catch
the
chance
to
visit
some
NGOs
in
Canada,
and
write
some
reports
about their operation patterns in order to learn the advanced modes.


Career opportunity in China


Upon my graduation in U of T, I plan to return to China for the following reasons:


Firstly, my training in sociology will provide skills for jobs in many fields in China,
including
government,
politics,
industry,
education,
journalism
and
so
on.
So
there
are
many
job
opportunities lying ahead of me. But I am particularly interested in working at NGOs. There are
more and more NGOs established in China, such as Chiheng, Narada, Greenpeace(China) and Action
Aid(China).
However
they
just
need
some
more
advanced
ideas
and
talents
to
support
the
institution.
With a
degree from world-
famous
university
and
my
skill
in thinking and research that
I’ve been
taught when I study in UT, I am confident that I can find a place in Chinese NGO that fit me the
best.


Secondly,
sociology
is
about
the
way
of
thinking
and
acting
which
is
penetrated
into
the
local
culture.
I
was
born
and
living
here,
so
it
will
be
more
confident
and
comfortable
for
me
to
apply
the theory to Chinese conditions than any other countries.


Last but not the least, I wish to go back to my hometown Hangzhou, which is a metropolitan
city with many great job opportunities and a very beautiful and comfortable city for living.
Besides I love my parents very much. For I am the only child of them, I wish to go back and take
good care of them.


Yours sincerely,

Study Plan


Dear visa officer
：
.

My name is ***, female, born on 27th of Feb ** in Qingdao, Shandong province, China. I
received my admission to Qingdao University in 2007, majoring in English.. After much
calculation, I believe that studying abroad to broaden my horizon is a better choice for me.
Therefore, I’m applying a further study in Canada. In this case, I can not only improve my English,
but also have a more challenging and promising major that I’m interested in
---Accounting and
Finance.
（第一段主要是把自己滴情况主要表述了一下，以及这个出国打算）

In my view, Canada has a more peaceful and harmonious environment for studying and it is rich
in educational resources comparing to other countries.
（加拿大方面滴优秀之处一笔带过）

The
reason that I choose Seneca is for its true knowledge learning and real experience gaining. Unlike
Chinese universities or colleges, Seneca offers co-operative education programs that allow
students to gain real work experience and apply what they have learned in the workplace. A more
attractive factor is Seneca offers many different opportunities for students’ success. Students are
able to transfer credits from some of its diploma programs to its degree programs, and Seneca has
transfer agreements with educational institutions across Canada and even around the globe.

大 学不可比滴。。这样才体现了放弃原有大学去学个这个
college
滴必要性么。。。）Thus,
with those opportunities, I am sure I will at a higher level after I complete my study in Canada.


The program of Accounting and Finance offered by Seneca College attracts me just like a bridge
to a higher education. In this program, many important subjects are provided, such as Accounting
Basics,Business Statistics,Mathematics of Finance,Organizational Behaviour,

Co- op Professional Theory, and Quantitative Approaches to Decision Making

tc. As far as I’m concerned, those subject regarding accounting and finance are quite necessary to
me. I can get a better understanding on accounting knowledge and get closer to a true accountant
through them. Moreover, I’m quite interested in the Organiza
tional Behaviour and Quantitative
Approaches to Decision Making which can give me a chance to be wiser and of great executive
ability.
（你必须说清楚你将要学习的专业，大家最好说一下自己的课程，其中具体 课程的
名字，例如第一学期有些什么重要的课程，第二学期有什么，你感兴趣的，等等，必须写清
楚，这样签证官就会觉得你很认真，是过去学习的！！！！课程你自己从学校网站上找，都
找得到。）

What I have planned is that after a period of adaptive phase, I will go to a university for a degree
and then one-
year’s master.
matter what, I want to pass CA (chartered accountant) exam during
my study in Canada, and then back to China to apply myself into accounting and finance.

关于签证时的

(

个

)
寄托天下

2007

我要说两句

近来签证时不断有
VO
问及
Study Plan,
我收集了一些类似的
,
仅供大家参考
.
美国签证,
这是沈阳领事馆网页上个人简历中对学习计划的要求！

学习计划
:

简洁并详细地描述有关计划学习的领域，包括研究方法，和研究的应用范围。

说明主管教授的名字和他
/
她的专业领域

说明即将进行此项研究的学院名称和系部名称

在申请留学及签证的过程中，经常会被要求写学习计划书（
study
plan）
,
本文作者长
期从事留学文书写作，因此结合自己的工作经验，介绍一下学习计 划书的写作。

一般来说学习计划书可以按照提交目的分成两类，给大使馆申请签证用的，或是 给学
校申请录取用的。
用来申请学校的学习计划从本质上讲和个人陈述是同一类型的文书，关于
学校申请类的学习计划书可以参考个人陈述方面的文章，
本文主要介绍提交大使馆签证 用的
学习计划书。

欧美国家，特别是移民国家，如法国，澳大利亚，新西兰，加拿大 等国针对留学生签
证的时候往往要求提供学习计划书，
通过学习计划书使签证官了解您的背景，
选择留学专业
的动机条件，选择该国留学的理由，
和清晰的未来留学时间安排，
职业目标和回国理由，配
合审核您的其它材料决定是否给您发放留学签证，因此学习计划书是一份很关 键的文件。

总的来说，学习计划书需要包括以下几方面内容。

1
、

简单说明自己的学习经历，专业背景及工作经历；

2
、

说明自己进一步求学的动机及为什么选择该国、该大学与该专业；

3
、

详细的留学时间安排；

4
、介绍留学所需资金及来源；

5
、

对未来职业目标的阐述，留学后回国的理由。

学习计划书的行文风格和文章结构与个 人陈述有很大不同，不需要太多个性化和感性
的描述，而应该是结构清晰简单，逻辑严密，阐述的事实明 确，相关论据有力可信，学成回
国的理由要非常充分，并且绝对不能和申请人的其他材料发生矛盾。
由于使馆的工作人员每天要处理大量的文件，因此学习计划书切不可写的太长，一般
不应 超过
800
字，
并且说明一个问题最好只用一个段落，
段落前加上标题，如
My
Choice
of
University of Toronto in Canada ,My career objective
等，以便使馆的 工作人员对您
一段内容的中心思想一目了然。
您的阐述应该非常清晰易读，
不能希望让 使馆的工作人员从
您的文字中“挖掘”您“潜在”内容。

学习计划书的重点部分是未 来的职业计划和留学后回国的理由，通过这一部分来告诉
大使馆您到该国留学后，
确实能够对您 的职业发展有良好的帮助，
并且有可信有力的理由学
成归国。虽然要求学习计划书的国家往往是 移民国家，但是由于您申请签证的理由是留学，
因此通过学习计划书一定要消除您任何移民倾向。
回国理由要结合您个人的背景经历和家庭
情况给出很合理的解释，
如一位拥有多年商业经历的 经理获得去新西兰读商业管理硕士课程
的机会，
那么阐明他的职业目标是回到中国成为一名跨国 公司的高级经理人，
而他在中国多
年积累的客户资源和社交圈是一笔非常宝贵的财富，这就是非 常强硬并合理的一条回国理
由。
特别需要注意的是，
学习计划书中关于回国理由等涉及 事实论据的地方，
不能任意编造。

最后需要强调的是，由于学习计划书在表达上要求 非常有条理，逻辑严密，简洁有力，
这是大多数中国申请人所难以达到的，
由于语法错误和逻辑 关系的失误往往会导致理解的偏
差。因此请专门的机构由外籍专家进行语言上的修改是避免上述弊端的好 办法。


注：应网友要求，特附一篇英文版的学习计划书

学习计划书样文

Introduction of my background :
My training was in the area of Chinese Education in XXX University for
Nationalities.
The
education
I
received
there
trained
my
basic
abilities
of
learning
and made me capable of independent working. Because of my interest,and curiosity
in
the
new
field
of
Marketing,I
participated
in
the
business
directly
related
with
market after my graduation from university.
My
first
job
was
Manager
Assistant
in
XXX
Supermarket.
I
learned
a
lot
of
experience
from manager and co-workers, which added to my talent and efforts made me very
successful in daily work. For example, I made our supermarket the
without
fake
commodities
and
instituted
rigid
regulations
for
supplier
selection.
Moreover,
I
bought
large
amount
of
goods
with
cash
and
quickly
sold
them
at
low
price,
which
accelerated
the
turnover
of
money
and
increased
our
bargain
power
to
suppliers.
In
1996,
I
was
promoted
to
be
the
Operation
Executive.
I
audaciously
built
up
three
chain
supermarkets
in
Shenzhen
and
established
strong
competitive
advantages
among
our industry.
In 1998,I joined the Shenzhen XXX Electronic .-whose main business is
the sales of single chip and relevant software. I suggested the company enter the
market
of
single
chip's
emluator
which
contained
more
technology
and
had
more
profit
vacuum. I also enhanced the technology development and after-sales service; held
technology lectures focused on potential clients and published technical
introductory
articles.
Within
only
2
years
our
emluator
business
became
a
well-known
brand in our industry and became our company's core business and main resource of
profit.
Why
choose
to
study
in××and
Throughout
my
past
experience,
however,
I
realized
that I need more than my talent and successful records to achieve my higher goals,
especially as China joined the WTO and plays an active role in the global economy.
An
advanced
education
in
marketing
in
a
western
country
is
necessary
for
me
to
have
an
international
perspective
of
marketing
and
gain
valuable
knowledge
of
marketing
theories and practices. The advanced Education system in ××can provide high
quality
graduated
program
for
me
,
the
reasonable
tuition
and
high
standard
living
condition
also
attracted
me
deeply
.
The
University
of××is
one
of
eight
University
which authorized by the government of China , all these are reasons for me to
determine to go to××, a country which has the highly developed business system
and first-class education quality, for my further education.
Study plan :
I
plan
to
study
for
the
Mater
Degree
of
Marketing
in
the
University
of
xxx
which
last for two years. Because I believe my condition and qualification are suitable
for the courses requirements. Matriculated in The University of XXX smoothly has
proved the university also believes in my ability of completing my study without
difficulties.
Moreover,
all
of
my
accomplishments
in
the
field
of
marketing
within
10
year
would
be
my
good
preparation
for
my
further
study.
I
am
very
confident
that
my experience would help me succeed in my post-graduate study. To study marketing
needs
solid
English
foundation.
Although
I
have
been
keeping
learning
English
these
years
and
already
have
a
very
good
English
foundation,
I
still
reckon
that
my
English
will
be
improved
if
I
pay
much
attention
to
learn
it
in
an
English
speaking
country.
Therefore, I prepare to complete half a year's English courses before my study of
master courses and take IELTS in New Zealand as well.
When I received my master degree, I will get systematic Marketing knowledge
and understanding of the running of business in New Zealand, a developed Western
country .
My 10 year's saving which is *****RMB in *******Bank, my real estate which worth
****RMB
(estimated
my
******Bank)
and
my
stock
which
worth
*******
RMB
(calculated
in present market price) in stock market would be my firm foundation of studying
in
New
Zealand.
The
study
fee
in
***university
is
******
and
the
living
cost
is
*****.
Therefore,
my financial
status
is sufficient
to
afford
my study and living cost
in
New Zealand.
Career objective
As soon as I finish my master degree in Marketing, I'd like to return back to
China
directly.
First,
it
simply
because
I
love
my
motherland
very
much
and
I
believe
my further education
in
New Zealand
could help me to make greater
contributions to
the people and economy that I have a passion for.
The
second
reason
is
I
feel
lucky
that
I
live
in
an
era
when
China
is
undergoing
rapid economic and political reforms. I witnessed with my own eyes its transition
from a society of monotony and low productivity to one that is much more open,
prosperous,
and
full
of
momentum
for
growth.
As
a
result
this
transition
has
created
plenty of opportunities in Chinese economy.
Since
I
have
always
dreamed
of
being
a
successful
international
marketer
in
China,
I
would
like
to
utilize
the
knowledge
that
I
will
acquire
in
New
Zealand
and
abundant
experience accumulated in China's domestic market to extend my own career as an
international marketer who concerns the marketing in global scale.
More
than
ten
year's
domestic
experience
is
extremely
valuable
for
a
successful
marketer.
However,
in
New
Zealand-a
country
which
has
a
totally
different
language
and culture, there is few advantage for me, so coming back to China after learning
is my best choice.
Finally,
nearly
all
of
my
public
relationship
is
based
in
China.
During
my
ten
year's work, I have already accumulated plenty of clients and relationship; those
are very important foundation not only for my career but also for my daily life.
I would never give them up. Furthermore my former company-Shenzhen XXX Electronic
Co., Ltd. agreed with my decision of studying in New Zealand and they will keep my
position
and
welfare
while
I
am
in
New
Zealand
and
look
forward
to
my
return.
I
would
never like to miss this opportunity



study plan 1
I knew the information about 'S CAMBRIDGE in Beijing International
Education Fair. The flexible and variable course arrangement, vivid and vigorous
class teaching, the teacher team with excellent performance and the 100% high
proportion of students entering universities of a higher grade attracted me, I
thought it is a college fit for me. Consulted with my parents, I decided to apply
for
study
to
this
college.
At
present,
I
have
received
the
documents,
including
the
enrollment letter and expenses table etc. from this college.
My study plan in England is as follows: I prepare to study in England for six
years, from September 2000 to August , I will study English course in
SELECT
ENGLISH
of

CAMBRIDGE
with
the
period
from
September
2000
to
August
2001.
Because I have the basis of studying English in China for four years, after
the study in England for one year, I believe I will master English language
proficiently to meet my own requirements of studying and living in England. The
expenses of one year
are about
￡
14000.
Then I will study A-level course for two years with the period from September
2001 to August 2003. The course is full-time with 20 class hours each week. I plan
to study business programme, including accounting, business studies, economics,
computer science and single subject mathematics etc. Annual expenses of studying
in
England
are
about
￡
ing
to
the
educational
system
of
England,
three
courses
in
all
the
courses
will
be
selected
as
the
check-up
condition
when
applying
for study in the University, and I will make efforts to make my every course reach
A

I
can
obtain
good
results
in
the
study
of
A-level
courses,
I
will
select
the university that is fit for me to continue my study according to my results.
I will continue to study the business programme. There are a large number of
universities in England, I believe I can find an ideal university. I will get
bachelorship after the study in the university for three I get
bachelorship certificate, I prepare to come back to China for development. The
speedily developed economy of China creates innumerable challenges and
opportunities. But the opportunity especially favors the person with preparation.
The six- year study in England will give me the capital for accepting challenges,
and
make
me
own
the
condition
of
becoming
an
international
business
talent
with
high
performance. What I will get is not only a business bachelorship, what's more
important is that long-term business
education makes me learn modern enterprise management way and commercial running
mode, which is beneficial for future enterprise management. Because mastering
English
proficiently
and
having
personal
experience
to
European
cultural
background,
I
will
deal
with
international
contact
with
skill
and
ease
by
myself.
After
I
obtain
such superiority, I prepare to come back to China for helping my mother manage the
family enterprise established by her, and enter into the high management level of
the enterprise. Opening China welcomes international talents very much. Studying
in England will help me to realize the life's leap.

1988
to
l994
I
studied
at
Beijing
Guangmng
Primary
School,
from
1994
to
l997
at
Beijing
Guangming
Midd1e
School,
and
from l997 to now I'm at Beijing Minge Sun Yatsen High School.
As I know New Zealand is a beautiful and richly endowed country with fine
environment,
hospitable
people
and
delightful
weather.
My
deepest
impression
of
New
Zealand
is
her
good
study
environment
and
advanced
education
system.
I
just
graduated
from
high
school,
I
am
longing
to
pursue
my
further
education,
I
think
I
can
realize
my wish in New Zealand.
If I could study in New Zealand, I am planning to major in Tourism Studies.
China is a country with an ancient civilization and long history she is rich in
natural
and
tourism
resources.
While
tourism
is
an
important
industry
in
New
Zealand,
she has rich experiences in this area. So I an sure to obtain advanced tourism
knowledge from New Zealand, and
do my
bit for ti1e development of tourism Industry
in China.
After I accomplish my studies in New Zealand, I will return to work in China.
The reasons for it are as follows: Firstly, I am Chinese, no matter where I go, I
won't forget home my home is in China. Secondly, with the quickening of Chinese
reforming and opening steps, ti1ere are more and more opportunities available for
youth like me to put their talent to good use. In addition, I am the only son of
my parents, it's my duty to come back to take care of them according to Chinese
tradition.
The
above-mentioned
all
determines
that
I
am
sure
to
develop
my
own
career
in China as soon as I finish my studies in New Zealand.

Study plan 3

My name is ***, l am now a f1rst- year student of Beijing ** High School. Since my
parents
are
very
busy
with
their
work,
I
spend
my
spare
time
with
my
classmates
mostly.
In
the
ta1ks
with
my
c1assmates,
we
often
speak
of
our
study
direction
and
development
in the coming days and know that some of them have gone abroad to study. So I also
began to dream that someday I would pursue my further study abroad. One day when
I got on line to 1ook up geographical data, I found New Zealand. Because I am very
fond
of
geography,
I
become
interested
in
the
geographical
position
of
New
Zealand,
just this made me have more understandings about New Zealand. New Zealand is a
beautiful and richly endowed country with friend1y people, good public order and
advanced
education
system
as
a
member
of
the
British
Commonwealth,
which
makes
her
a good place to study in. After consu1ting with my parents, they decide to finance
me to study in New Zea1and.
My
parents
have
only
one
daughter,
I
hope
I
could
repay
them
and
my
motherland
when I accomp1ish my studies in New Zealand and returm to China. I believe that at
that
time
China
must
have
ful1y
developed,
which
will
provide
with
much
bigger
space
for me to put my talent to good use.

Yours sincere1y

Study Plan 4
(Submitted for Visa Application)
The present study plan is based on much serious thinking that I have been
carrying on recently and I believe only a well-considered study plan is likely to
provide me with effective guidelines for my future studies in Canada and for my
subsequent career development in China.
1. Why do you wish to come to Canada to study at the school and in the program
for which you have been accepted?
Having
developed
the
necessary
theoretical
buildup
and
research
skills
through
my undergraduate program in life science, I consider myself qualified for a
challenging
graduate
program
at
Canada’s
University
of
x
x
x
.
I
choose
this
school
for a number of reasons. I believe that the best way to learn is to learn from the
best and University of x x x is a world famous institution of a 200-year history,
whose
6
professors
and
alumni
have
become
Nobel
laureates.
Its
unparalleled
academic
strength
is
evidenced
by
its
large
number
of
internationally
renowned
scholars
and
outstanding graduates, and the research achievements it has made. With its rich
cultural diversity and pluralistic value orientations, it is uniquely hospital to
international
students
from
over
140
countries.
I
want
to
study
life
science
there
because the university is particularly strong in this program, with advanced
facilities, abundant research funds, and outstanding researchers. The sheer bulk
of
research
papers
published
in
the
world’s
first
-rate
journals
by
life
scientists
there testifies to its leading role in the academic community in Canada and even
in
the
world.
My
potential
advisor
Prof.
x
x
x,
a
distinguished
scientist
in
cellular
and
developmental
biology,
has
been
performing
some
very
pioneering
research,
part
of which closely corresponds to the research I have been doing. I have read his
voluminous publications and wish to enter his laboratory. He will provide me with
full financial support during my study and research there.
2. What is your overall educational goal?
During
the
future
two
years,
under
the
guidance
of
Prof.
x
x
x,
I
wish
to
complete
my
Master’s
program
successfully,
obtaining
my
Master’s
diploma
/
degree.
Through
this program, I expect to be instructed in advanced research techniques and
methodologies in cellular and developmental biology, expose myself to the latest
developments
in
the
international
academia,
and
develop
my
capacity
for
independent
research. In this way, I will have a solid foundation for becoming a successful
biological researcher who can undertake high-level research upon completing my
program and returning to China.
3.
Why
you
are
not
pursuing
less
expensive
alternatives
in
China
(what
are
those
alternatives and have you investigated them?)
It is true that less expensive graduate education is also available in China.
I
have
visited
most
of
the
leading
institutions
(like
Chinese
Academy
of
Sciences)
and universities in Beijing, including my alma mater. Laboratories enjoy greater
input of state research funds and better facilities in recent years. However, the
level
of
research
as
a
whole
remains
relatively
low.
The
limited
number
of
facilities
has
prevented
graduate
students
from
remarkably
enhancing
their
hands- on
abilities
and realizing their research objectives. In China, the latest information of
biological
research
in
the
international
academia
is
more
difficult
to
acquire
while
academic exchanges are insufficient. The greatest fault I find is that an advisor
usually supervises about a dozen of graduate students, allowing for little
advisor-student
inter
activity.
Those
adverse
factors
are
deeply
rooted
in
China’s
educational system and are unlikely
to be
solved within
a short time. Finally,
all
the accomplished biologists in China have invariably been trained in the west. I
want
follow
their
footsteps
and
I
believe
that
Canadian
graduate
education
is
more
expensive for good reasons.
4.
What
ties
do
you
have
to
China
that
will
lead
you
to
return
to
China
following
your course of study?
With
the
increasing
emphasis
on
biological
research
by
the
Chinese
government,
all the research achievements made by Chinese biological scientists are highly
respected.
Such
a
favorable
environment
on
the
government’s
policy
level
guarantees
that
returnees
from
the
west
will
be
accorded
the
best
conditions
for
their
personal
and
professional
development.
Specifically,
several
ties
will
lead
me
to
return
to
China
following
my
course
of
study.
First
I
can
enter
the
Institute
of
Cell
Biology
of Beijing Normal University where I completed my undergraduate thesis to work as
research. During the
second half of my undergraduate program and
over
the past one
year since my graduation, I have
been
working as research assistant in the project
team Genetic Expression and its Effect on the Cell Cycle sponsored by the State
Natural Science Foundation and the team director has also promised me a research
position there. Beyond that, I can apply for job positions at many research
institutes
in
Beijing
and
at
so
many
multinational
corporations
based
in
China,
which
are engaged in biological-pharmaceutical research and development. The job
opportunities are virtually limitless.
5. How
will
this
Canadian diploma/degree increase your chances
in the Chinese
labor market?
China’s burgeoning development in biology
is accompanied by a
woeful lack of
internationally trained talents. As biology is a rapidly developing discipline,
information of the cutting-edge developments and the ability to operate the
state-of-art research facilities are paramount for China to keep up with the
international
standards.
Obtaining
the
Canadian
diploma
/degree
means
my
acquiring
stronger research abilities, greater English proficiency, broader international
perspectives, those qualities for becoming a well-trained biological scientists
that
are
less
accessible
to
graduate
students
undertaking
their
programs
in
China.
Chinese
government
attracts
western
educated
graduate
students
by
offering
special
preferential policies like generous research funds and excellent research
conditions. Moreover, they are also readily employed by multinational companies
based
in
China.
They
become
the
most
sought-after
people
in
the
Chinese
labor
market
by Chinese and international enterprises, research centers, and academic
institutions. This is because it has long been proved that graduates with western
educational backgrounds are almost always the most fruitful.
Study Plan for Visa Application
My
study
plan
is
to
pursue
a
Ph.D.
at
the
x
x
x
University
in
Canada
concentrating
on
the
discipline
of
robotics.
This
is
a
natural
progression
for
me,
because
I
already
possess
a
BA
and
an
MA
both
related
to
control,
computer
science
and
robotics
research.
Further evidence of my consistent commitment to and expertise in my chosen field
is
my
position
as
a
Research
Assistant
for
the
xxx
Mobile
Robots
(THMR)
Laboratory.
Now, after dedicating eight years towards fulfilling my objective of becoming a
fully-fledged authority on robotics, I feel well prepared for a doctoral program
on the topic. Xxx University offers me the best possible opportunities to acquire
leading edge knowledge and later contribute to robotics advancements in China.
Why come to Canada to study in Robotics at x x x University?
I
selected
Xxx
University
because
its
research
focus,
facilities
and
professors
are absolutely ideal to help me meet my precise goals. My choice was made after
comparing and contrasting carefully several different engineering schools. While
many
universities
conduct
investigations
into
robotic
theories,
this
institution’s
Faculty
of
Engineering’s
specialist
trait
is
rese
arch
into
robots
used
in
industry.
Not only will I be acquiring practical knowledge in my specific field, I will also
be gaining expertise that is in great demand by industrial sectors in China.
Additionally,
I
am
attracted
to
the
fact
that
the
Faculty
of
Engineering
holds
strong
ties with industrial organizations including the C-CORE. The Faculty partners
provide
substantial
funding,
advanced
facilities
and
suitable
test
environments
for
research into robots. Furthermore, the PhD supervisors are C-CORE Chairs in
intelligent systems, which indicates that experts with extensive and pioneering
knowledge will appropriately guide my research and use me for excellent projects.
I also chose these professors because not only will I be expected to study my
particular
area,
I
additionally
must
acquire
a
broad
education
regarding
the
theory
and application
of many
kinds of robots.
Therefore, as I
learn widely about ground
robots,
underground
robots
and
group
robots,
I
will
be
supervised
capably
on
my
area
of infrastructure-free mobile robots.
Why not pursue less expensive alternatives in China?
Of course, to obtain a PhD in China was my first preference because it is my
home. I
therefore considered applying for the
doctoral
program at x x x
University
in
China,
especially
as
I
have
worked
there
and
it
is
the
leading
university
in
China
regarding this subject. However, while China is cheaper than Canada, the issue of
cost
did
not
determine
my
choice
of
university.
Due
to
my
knowledge
and
skills,
the
x
x
x
University
in
Canada
is
offering
me
the
necessary
financial
assistance
to
fully
cover tuition and living expenses. Most important for me was the right research
environment. Sadly,
China is not the
best
option presently. I know from first hand
experience that while x x x University has the broadest robots research in China,
it mainly focuses on ground level single robots and I already have considerable
knowledge of this area. Plus there is the key fact that most of the leading robot
professionals in China were trained in the west. They left China because western
countries still hold the finest technology and preeminent teaching. Like them, I
wish
to
benefit
from
a
North
American
education
and
put
it
to
good
use
upon
my
return
to China.
What is my overall educational objective?
My overall educational objective is to use the PhD as a vehicle to become a
world-class
specialist
in
robotics,
especially
underground
robots.
Exposure
now
to
cutting edge technological breakthroughs and participation in advanced projects
would prepare me
for a
brilliant long-term career in China.
I will furthermore use
my education to help China integrate itself with the global academic environment,
because I will present papers at seminars and international conferences.
How
will
this
Canadian
degree
increase
my
chances
in
the
Chinese
labor
market?
My prospects in the Chinese labor market would be extraordinary after
acquisition
of
a
PhD
in
robotics.
Robots
are
vital
technological
tools
for
Chinese
industries
and
manufacturing,
which
must
upgrade
their
automation
features
to
keep
pace
with
international
standards.
To
give
one
example,
China
is
investing
billions
in city subways, and underground robots inevitably will play an important role in
their
construction.
Because
China’s
requirements
for
robot
expe
rts
greatly
exceeds
the
number
of
talented
professionals,
those
in
possession
of
the
information
on
the
latest international developments and skills applicable to handle projects at the
most challenging level will be in great demand. Furthermore, aside from hands-on
knowledge, what I would offer an employer was evidence that I had acquired new
concepts,
a
fresh
mindset,
the
ability
to
conduct
senior
level
independent
research
and a broad international perspective. My competitors
–
PhD holders from Chinese
universities - would be able to make less impressive claims in these areas.
Additionally, the Chinese government encourages returnees with preferential
policies,
such
as
ample
funds
for
research
and
favorable
conditions
for
establishing
businesses. I can state with confidence that the Canadian degree would open doors
for me
–
to construction enterprises, research institutions and multinational
companies.
In
China,
they
all
would
view
me
as
a
precious
potential
member
of
their
personnel. A PhD holder from a western country is seen as having a positive impact
to play in the development of a domestic organization, not just in their specific
job but also their approach to work. PhD holding returnees are valued as being
cooperative team workers, forward thinking and highly proactive when faced with
challenges.
What ties do I have to China that will lead me to return to China following
my course of study?
I
hold
plans
regarding
how
I
aim
to
use
my
degree
in
the
long-term
when
I
return
to
China,
and
have
already
secured
backing
from
family
and
colleagues
to
facilitate
their realization. Those plans include using my research findings to establish my
own robotics high technology company, with the help of my father and a professor
at x x x University. My father is an official with extensive connections, and he
is
in
a
position
to
provide
his
full
support
in
R
&
D
financing
and
market
development.
Through him, I can navigate my way through red tape and meet the people with the
knowledge
regarding
potential
business.
With
regard
to
the
professor,
he
is
my
former
