Standardization construction of computer room of immigration bureau

You can go to the university's 2+2 major, which is convenient for going abroad to study for a master's degree.

For example: Shanghai Jiaotong University

Electrical information (Sino-foreign cooperative education) (Michigan College of Jiaotong University) is not expensive, 30,000 yuan per year.

Factors affecting the application for scholarships in American universities.

Under normal circumstances, American schools will mainly consider the following factors when examining applicants: academic performance, standard test scores, work experience, awards and honors, academic qualifications, family background and so on.

First, academic performance

Applicants' academic performance, whether in high school or university, has two forms, one is GP (average grade point) and the other is Rank, which is graduation ranking.

These two forms are the standards used by most schools in the United States to measure applicants' academic performance. By understanding the applicant's past academic achievements and academic rankings, we can understand his academic potential.

(A) the average score-GPA

Most universities in the United States have minimum GPA requirements for applicants, and those that fail to meet the minimum GPA requirements will not be considered.

In the United States, 90% of schools' GPA calculation method is based on the 4.0 scale, and 65,438+0% schools will adopt the 5.0 scale, so the minimum admission standards of these schools will be raised accordingly. To the disadvantage of China students, the scores of most schools in China are very strict, and many students with excellent actual scores are not 3.0 when converted into GPA. In some universities, the average score of the top five students in the class may be below 75, so when applying for an American university, the GPA will be 2.0, and you can only enter some third-and fourth-rate schools. In order to eliminate this disadvantage, two methods can be adopted: one is to explain in the report card or recommendation letter and reading plan that this GPA is actually caused by strict grading standards; Second, when providing transcripts, list the ranking and percentage of such achievements in the whole class or department.

Graduation ranking-ranking

Experienced American schools know very well that grades are a relative standard, and when enrolling students and evaluating scholarship winners, it is impossible to objectively explain a student's academic performance. Because the grading standards of each school are different, even in the same school, if the topic is easy, it may make the whole class score above 90%, and if the topic is difficult, the whole class will fail. Therefore, American schools pay more attention to exam rankings and percentages. The ranking of the exam should refer to the total number of people in the class or department. Percent is a percentage value with ranking as numerator and total number of people as denominator. Or divide the percentage into more than 2%, more than 5%, more than 10%, more than 25%, more than 30%, and more than 50%, and then let the tutor indicate which grade the applicant lives in.

Second, the standard test scores (standard test scores)

Because the teaching level of domestic universities is uneven, it is impossible to judge the actual level of students according to the applicant's performance and ranking in a university. Therefore, American universities take the applicant's "standard test" scores as the basis for evaluating scholarships. At present, there are five "standard examinations" held in the Mainland: TOEFL, GRE, GMAT, LSAT and TSE. Among them, TOEFL test and TSE test are one kind of language proficiency test, which is only a basic requirement, that is, to achieve the minimum score of TOEFL or TSE in the applied American school, but they are of no practical help in applying for scholarships.

However, GRE, GMAT or LSAT are competency tests, and their scores reflect students' learning and thinking abilities, which are the standard tests that affect scholarship funding.

Third, work experience.

Applicants with certain work experience have advantages over those without work experience, and the advantages depend on their major. For example, business administration, journalism, clinical medicine and law all attach great importance to the work experience of candidates. The business schools of some famous American universities don't even accept applicants with no work experience. The requirements of science and engineering majors for applicants' work experience generally involve work experience in design, scientific research and teaching. Applicants applying for grants and assistantships need to have working experience in grants and assistantships.

Four. Awards and honors won

Honor is evidence of a student's outstanding performance In addition to some awards in the school, social honors outside the school, association members, awards for academic competitions or activities at or above the municipal level, papers published in academic magazines, etc. should be sent together with the application materials. Such students are welcome in all schools.

Verb (abbreviation of verb) education

It is much easier to apply for a scholarship for graduate students and above in American universities than for an undergraduate scholarship. If the applicant has obtained a bachelor's degree or a master's degree in China, it will have great advantages to apply for a master's degree or a doctorate in the United States. Many domestic applicants often apply to go abroad before graduating from college, so they can go to the United States for further study immediately after graduation. This situation needs to be reported to American schools, and degrees and diplomas can be provided before admission, and American schools will accept it. Because there are fewer and fewer professional doctoral researchers in the United States, American schools have adopted many methods to encourage doctoral degree applications. Many schools allow applicants with a bachelor's degree to apply for a doctor's degree directly instead of asking for a master's degree. Applying for a doctoral scholarship will be richer than applying for a master's degree.

Applicants who are determined to obtain a doctorate in the United States can apply for a doctorate directly after obtaining a bachelor's degree in China, which may make it easier to obtain scholarship funding.

Sixth, family background.

Although this content is not very important for applying for a scholarship, if the applicant comes from the family of a senior intellectual or an educational researcher, it should be explained, which will be beneficial to the applicant.

Deciphering the Audit Basis of Various Scholarships in American Universities

Types of "Scholarships" in American Universities

According to senior experts, strictly speaking, the so-called "scholarships" of American universities that overseas students are also eligible to apply for should be called "grants", which mainly include the following categories:

1, FELLOWSHIP: the highest and most competitive non-service scholarship means full bonus;

2. Scholarship: this is an honorary award, which is awarded to students with excellent grades, but the amount is small;

3. Free tuition: the amount is small;

4. Scientific research assistance and teaching assistance: most of them are aimed at graduate students or above, and getting any of them means full reward;

5. Saving or reducing off-campus accommodation and working on campus: this is stipulated by the US Immigration Service. International students can work 20 hours a week and 40 hours on holidays, with an hourly salary of not less than $5. Students can earn $4,000 to $6,000 or more in 65,438+0 years.

Jobs are generally: library, computer room, student canteen, management dormitory, office, school bookstore, school work-study program, etc.

Inventory of undergraduate majors that are easiest to study abroad.

Arts and sciences have their own advantages.

Liberal arts articles

Compared with science majors, the number and proportion of liberal arts graduates going abroad for further study are slightly lower. Exploring the reasons, on the one hand, the cultural differences of humanities have led to certain geographical limitations and applicability, on the other hand, it is quite difficult for most liberal arts majors to obtain scholarships from foreign universities. But every year, many liberal arts graduates pack their bags and go to North America, the economic capital, or Europe, the historical and cultural capital, to pursue the dream of humanities. Because humanities students need to experience, accumulate and feel constantly.

In the humanities, there is still a certain gap between the construction and development of China University and the famous universities in Europe and America, such as economics, management, journalism and communication, education, psychology, etc., and the graduates of these majors are in short supply in today's enterprises. After studying hard in excellent universities in Europe and America, I believe that returnees in the humanities will make great achievements.

Economic category

International certified public accountant, actuary, financial engineer, sponsor … these words are synonymous with business elite and high salary. Although it has just experienced the storm of economic crisis, the development prospects and salary of financial practitioners are still widely optimistic, and the image of Wall Street business elite is still desirable. In recent years, the enthusiasm and attention of economics, especially its finance, financial engineering, insurance and other majors have continued to rise, and there are also many opportunities for undergraduate graduates to study abroad.

The advantage of studying economics in China is that many universities in China have good professional strength, students can acquire solid basic knowledge and exercise their basic abilities, and the education cost is lower than that of foreign countries. After graduation, students can go abroad for further study, and rely on the sound and professional foreign capital market to increase their actual combat ability. At the same time, world-renowned banks and financial institutions also welcome graduate students with international vision and professional ability, so going to European and American universities to study economics graduate students will have a better development platform and more opportunities.

Universities in western Europe and the eastern United States are generally popular in applying for universities, but it is difficult for students majoring in economics to get more than half a prize besides the excellent talents of the applicants.

Management class

Management is a relatively broad concept, including management science and engineering, business management, public management and so on. Management is similar to economics, and some innovative frontier research methods and theories are basically produced in universities and research institutes in developed countries in Europe and America. Governments and enterprises in developed countries attach great importance to consulting management professionals in colleges and universities on management strategies and methods, which provides more opportunities for graduate students and doctoral students engaged in these fields to practice and develop. With the rapid development of economy and the growth of a large number of local enterprises, the economic development of China needs a large number of management talents with professional quality and international vision. Therefore, no matter from the employment rate or salary, the future of returnees majoring in management is guaranteed.

Professional managers have been ranked among the top ten high-paying industries, and most of the excellent professional managers are from management majors and have gradually grown up after being honed in the company. Studying abroad will provide students with more opportunities for exercise and practice, and their growth will be faster.

Management majors have a special degree: MBA. Unlike general academic education, which requires readers to have more than 3 years of management-related work experience, case teaching is generally the main method. There are internationally renowned MBA from Harvard Business School, MBA from Si Long Business School and MBA from Stanford Business School. MBA graduates from prestigious schools are favored by big international companies. However, few universities offer scholarships to MBA students.

Journalism and Communication

In recent years, with the rapid growth of people's demand for information, the media market has shown a prosperous scene. With the rapid development of digital TV, Internet and mobile phone platforms, today's mass media has a broader development space. Compared with domestic media education, foreign media education has many advantages, such as a long history, complete professional settings, strong R&D strength and strong international atmosphere. However, we still need to learn the theories related to media major at the domestic undergraduate stage, so as to improve our understanding of the development status and trends of the domestic media industry and better understand the essence of media education in foreign universities.

Journalism and Communication has a strong nature of communication at home and abroad, so senior professionals with world-renowned university research degrees and first-class English ability are favored by the industry. In recent years, the increasingly frequent exchanges at home and abroad have promoted the rapid development of domestic news, film and television, advertising and other media industries, and the market demand for talents at all levels of mass media, especially senior talents, has doubled.

The journalism and communication major in foreign universities pays special attention to cultivating students' reverse thinking ability to the media carriers such as TV, film, radio, news and communication in their own country and even the world through the social, especially cultural differences in the media industry. Although this major emphasizes theoretical study, more and more European and American universities are also emphasizing students' internships in the media industry, which provides many opportunities for students to understand the application of the latest multimedia technology in the media industry.

The difficulty of applying for this kind of major is often closely related to the university or related work experience we attended at the undergraduate level, and the acquisition of scholarships also depends on personal ability. There are a large number of scholarships, so it is relatively easy to apply.

In addition, psychology, pedagogy, sociology and other majors have a good prospect of going abroad after graduation.

Scientific and engineering articles

It is relatively easy for science and engineering majors to go abroad, because science and engineering majors in foreign universities are generally supported by scientific research projects, which require a large number of undergraduate graduates with strong professional ability and rigorous scientific attitude to participate in project research and development. This provides many opportunities for outstanding undergraduate science and engineering graduates in China to study abroad.

Basic subjects such as mathematics, physics and chemistry.

I remember when I was a child, I always heard adults say, "Learn math, physics and chemistry well, and I am not afraid to travel all over the world." This shows the important position of basic disciplines such as math, physics and chemistry in the society at that time and even now. Mathematics (mathematics and applied mathematics, information and computing science, etc. ), physics (physics, applied physics, etc. ) and chemistry (chemistry, chemical biology, etc. ) all belong to basic research disciplines, which need huge discipline funding support and outstanding scientific researchers with rigorous and innovative spirit. The abundant financial resources of European and American universities can provide better experimental equipment for students studying and researching at school, but most European and American universities lack basic laboratory talents (because most European and American students are more keen on social majors such as law, medical care and management, and rarely choose basic subject research), so it is easy for students studying in basic research disciplines to get high scholarships. Many graduates stay in famous foreign universities to teach and continue to engage in research work in related disciplines after obtaining doctoral degrees. Mathematics graduates are especially concerned by the information industry and financial analysis industry, and their development prospects are bright.

When recruiting graduate students or doctoral students, the basic disciplines of European and American universities pay special attention to whether the schools the applicants attend have academic prestige. Professors all hope that students can master scientific research methods and have solid basic knowledge at the undergraduate level. Therefore, students should pay attention to choosing universities with high academic prestige when applying for related majors.

Electrical information class

In recent years, the IT industry, represented by Internet community, e-commerce platform and online games, has developed extremely rapidly, which has aroused widespread concern in society and become a highly sought-after high-paying industry. Thus, electrical information (including electronic information engineering, communication engineering, electronic science and technology, computer science and technology, software engineering, etc. ) is very popular in China (the author studied in a key university majoring in electronic information engineering). At present, China's IT industry is in a situation of over-saturation of low-end talents and lack of high-end talents. Therefore, it is also a very good choice to finish the undergraduate course of IT-related majors in China and then go to famous universities in Europe and America to continue to learn more high-end knowledge and skills and forge yourself into a high-end IT elite. You know, many of the most important people in the IT industry finished their undergraduate studies in China and then went to European and American universities for further study-Sohu.com CEO Zhang Chaoyang, after graduating from Tsinghua, went to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology to get a doctorate; Li Yanhong, founder of Baidu, completed his undergraduate studies in Peking University and spent his postgraduate career at new york State University in Buffalo. Chen Yizhou, Chairman and CEO of Thousand Oaks Interactive, received three master's degrees from MIT and Stanford University after graduating from Wuhan University. IT can be seen that in the high-tech field of IT industry, good education and broad vision are important factors for success.

Different from the detailed division of professional fields in domestic universities, European and American universities generally only divide the IT field into two majors: electronic engineering (E.E.-electronic engineering) and computer science (C.S.-computer science), and many directions are subdivided under the majors. Every year, many undergraduate graduates majoring in E.E. and C.S. go abroad for further study, but it is not easy to get scholarships from world famous schools. The main reason is that these majors are very popular at home and abroad, many people want to go abroad for further study, and many people apply for scholarships, and the competition is extremely fierce.

Civil engineering

We often lament the grandeur of the Bank of China Building in Hong Kong, the quietness of Taibankou Church and the artistic atmosphere of Mira Apartment. At the same time, architects such as I.M. Pei, Tadao Ando and Gaudi are also well known. There are many differences in architectural education methods and evaluation criteria between western countries and China University. Students majoring in civil engineering should go abroad to see the world's leading development in this field. Of course, the quality of domestic civil engineering education is widely recognized by foreign universities, and the learning cost is low, which provides sufficient reasons for students to study civil engineering in domestic universities.

The specialty of civil engineering is special because it is easy for undergraduate graduates of this specialty to go abroad and have a good development prospect, but it is still very difficult to be admitted to famous universities in Europe and America. This is because there are many graduate applicants in Europe and America, which reduces the chances of China students being admitted to prestigious schools and makes it even more difficult to get scholarships. I once chatted with a doctor studying at the University of North Carolina. He said that among the China students he met in the United States, only a few won scholarships when they applied, but a considerable number of them went on to study architecture in China. If you don't get a scholarship when you apply, you can also apply for a research assistant (r a) or a teaching assistant (t a) scholarship during your study. Friends with financial difficulties don't have to worry. As long as you have a dream and are willing to work hard, the world will definitely give you a chance to struggle.

In addition, graduates majoring in biological sciences, bioengineering and machinery have good prospects for going abroad.
