出国留学个人陈述

Accepted at Illinois, Indiana, Michigan State, Chicago Kent

Rejected: DePaul, Ohio State, University of Chicago

Waitlisted: Wisconsin, Loyola Chicago

While attending the University of Illinois, I have enjoyed many opportunities to learn about the environment while developing an interest in the law. Hands-on experiences in the lab, field work across the state, and lectures from leading researchers engaged my mind and captured my interest. Studying ecology and the world’s environmental problems has instilled in me a deep appreciation for the environment as well as a desire to learn how attorneys utilize regulatory systems to protect it. Participating in an undergraduate research project on climate change, interning in a methylmercury lab, and taking an environmental law class have inspired me to attend law school to pursue my interest in learning how the law can address environmental problems.

During spring semester 2006, I began a research project on climate change under the direction of Dr. Tony Endress. We analyzed climate data from the past 100 years to investigate how the observed variations affected the phenology of Illinois flora. The engaging research revealed the extent to which climate change alters the function and timing of processes in ecosystems. I continued researching environmental problems last summer with the National Great Rivers Research and Education Center. As an intern in Dr. Robert Hudson’s lab at the University of Illinois, I conducted a research project on methylmercury in crayfish and odonates from the Piasa Creek Watershed in southeastern Illinois. Methylmercury, a widespread neurotoxin especially hazardous to developing organisms, is found throughout the world’s aquatic ecosystems and poses a threat to public and ecosystem health. Although I enjoyed contributing to the academic community with my research, I wanted to do something more tangible about the problems I studied. Applying the law to diminish threats to human and environmental well-being would simultaneously achieve social and environmental justice, benefiting both humans and nature.

Both research endeavors have been fascinating, rewarding projects, but research alone cannot satisfy me professionally. The legal system makes connections between science and regulatory policy, allowing the results of scientific research to engender change that benefits society. My research projects inspired me to learn how to use the law to improve ecosystem quality and to protect human well-being. I am interested in developing policies that protect species from hazardous exposure to methylmercury and other toxins by reducing their abundance in ecosystems. In law school, I hope to learn how to craft a practical regulatory system that mitigates the negative effects of climate change on society and the environment. As a lawyer, I want to apply science through the law to make a positive change in the world.

While my research projects directed me towards specific issues to examine in a legal context, studying the law as an undergraduate inspires me to explore deeper aspects of legal structures and how they affect environmental well-being in law school. Last semester in environmental law class, I found my niche. Reading and discussing cases in class captured my interest every day because I felt passionate about each issue and was fascinated by the legal arguments used in each situation. Although the course focused on many cases and a variety of legal issues, at the end of the class I wanted to know more. Continuing my legal studies in law school will provide the tools I need to achieve my goal of applying science through the law, thus improving human and environmental wellbeing. With my future aspirations in mind, I look forward to the rewarding challenges of law school.

出国留学个人陈述

摘要：出国留学现在俨然成了一种趋势，出国留学需准备的各种材料非常繁琐，留学签证流程也非常复杂，在出国留学申请时最重要的就是出国留学个人陈述，是所有出国文件中最重要的部分。因此小编特整理了专业留学老师的出国留学个人陈述范文给大家分享。

出国个人陈述是申请者最主要的自我包装。申请被录取和经济资助就是要把自己推销给评审者。你的重任是让这一文件反映你的个性和才智。必须抓住机会，充分而且恰如其分地表现你的人格力量、智慧和已取得的成就。因此可以找几篇好的个人陈述范文可以参考一下，然后结合自己的情况严肃、认真和全面审视自己的才能、潜能、出国留学的目的。以下是出国留学个人陈述范文的写作技巧及范文。

在写作出国留学个人陈述范文的时候，认真而全面地审视自己的方法就是默默地自问如下问题：

1. 对所要申请的学校和专业是否有了深入细致的了解，能做到在写自述时紧扣学校和专业的要求及特点，突出自己申请的优势?

2. 我的人生经历中有什么独特的、非同寻常的地方?在我的家庭生活和社会生活中有哪些人或事件影响了我的人生观和事业追求?这些影响有什么与众不同的地方?

3. 我最初是如何对目前所选专业感兴趣的?我在其后的岁月中又是如何加深了对这一学科领域的认识?我在这一领域已经取得了什么样的成绩?是什么因素使我自信，能够在这一领域有所建树?

4. 在上学期间我从事了那些助教、助研、社会实践、暑期工作?通过这些活动在什么方面得到了提高(比如科研能力、组织能力和领导能力等)?在步入社会后的工作中完成过什么项目，取得了哪些成就，表现出何等才干?

5. 我的最终的事业目标是什么?

6. 在我多年来的考试成绩上有没有需要解释的地方?比方说我大学成绩一直很优异，但却不怎么理想;我高年级的成绩是否比低年级的成绩有显著的提高?

7.在自我奋斗的过程中是否需要克服超常的困难，如家庭生活贫困、身体残疾等等?

8. 我是否具备杰出的品格，比如诚实，可靠、善良、刻苦等等，而我能否提供真凭实据来加以证明?我是否具备值得一提的很好的特别的工作习惯和态度，以及禀性上的优势。

9. 我具备什么样的特殊才能，如分析能力、领导才能和交流才能?我为什么比别的申请者更具有在事业上成功的把握?

要回答这些问题的确是不容易的，但你必须在正式写作自述之前全面准备，对这些问题加以认真思考，因为你的自述需要回答所有这些问题或其中的大部分。

对内容有了把握后，就是要注意写作技巧了。这里说的写作技巧不是英语水平的问题，而是写作的思路、取材和段落的安排。所以，自述的第一段或者是前二段至为重要。这头一、二段必须能够引起读者对你的兴趣，并且能够得到关于你个人的最重要的信息。如果你的头一、二段的内容中有闪光之处，能够给人留下不可磨灭的印象，那就达到了最佳效果。编者所强调的独特性，决不是仅指在语言上要独树一帜。获得独特性的更重要的有两个方法：一是寻找独特的思想方法或者说是审视自己的独特角度，二是在陈述过程中采用故事手法。

出国留学个人陈述范文如下：

材料组织凌乱无序(经济类)-改后稿正在读大学的申请者，也许可以参考这种写作法来完成自己的statement.

A top student of international finance at the Beijing University, probably China"s best institution of higher learning, I would like to scale higher intellectual heights by undertaking advanced studies in your Master"s program. Such studies will help me fulfill a dream that I have inherited from my parents: the eradication of poverty in China.

Although I grew up almost a pampered kid, I have learned of the scourge of poverty from my parents by listening to their stories about their childhood. My father, now a well-known professor of chemistry at the Sichuan University, was almost starved to death in the 1960s when his home village was mired in famine like many other parts of China. My mother, a manager of personnel with a major Chinese corporation, saw her youthful years slipping away in the chaotic cultural revolution period. Braving their trial and tribulation, they have always worked hard and are now well-established in their own careers. But they want more than a good life for themselves. They want to help make sure that no one in China will have to suffer in the future the way they did in the 1960s.

Prodded by my parents" high expectations, I have studied diligently over the years, drawing constant inspiration from the learning spirit prevalent on the campus of the Sichuan University, where my family had our home. While in primary and high school, I was always recognized as the best student, for which I was sent to numerous national and provincial contests and earned many awards. These include a First Prize in the National Physics Contest of High School Students and a Second Prize of the Sichuan Mathematics Contest of High School Students.

The hard work paid off in my impressive performance in the 1995 National University Entrance Examinations, with which I won acceptance into the School of Economics at the Beijing University, described as the Harvard of China by President Bill Clinton on his recent trip to China.(北京大学在中国很有名气，但老外也不一定知道，像这里这种介绍方法就很有力量。) At the Beijing University, I have been exposed systematically to concepts and theories of international finance and economics. At the time I entered into the university, I did not know much about economics. My parents, in their zeal to make me an economist, had chosen the major for me. I am now so glad that they did so. The clear logic and advanced mathematics inherent in the economic analyses and hypotheses have particularly fascinated me. From Adam smith"s Wealth of the Nation to the Game Theory by Nash to J. M. Keyes to Samuelson, I have been inculcated in virtually all the great works of economics.

One of the good things about Beijing University is that it teaches the students not only knowledge but also how they can do research themselves. I have thus been trained in a variety of research methodologi(本文来自：WwW.dXf5.coM 东星资源网:出国留学个人陈述)es. I now understand how great economists grasp the economic reality and appreciate their readiness to ask questions on things that other people may take for granted. I recognize there are no perfect answer to some of the questions in economics, such as how to deal with the ethical components in economy? Basking in the academic freedom that Beijing University cultivates, I have devoted more of my time to doing research myself than doing the assignments.

Although an economics major, I have learned most of the courses in the mathematics department. In my economics studies, I feel that mathematics is critically important in modern economics, as some modern theories of economics are demonstrated by pure mathematical induction. Seeing that mathematics courses in my department were too easy for me and too simple for more abstruse economics, I got the textbooks for the math majors and taught myself what they were learning, auditing in some of the classes of the Department of Mathematics.

Never content with just performing well in my exams, I have been keen in obtaining hands-on experience. To understand the real problems in real life and thus put what I have learned from books into practice, I joined an investigation group organized by the University to investigate some big state-owned enterprises in Shanxi Province in the summer of 1997. We found, much to our horror, that many of the enterprises were plagued by chaotic management, big losses and a lot of redundant workers. On the basis of careful research, I now think that a way to save them is to institute a shareholding system for the enterprises so that the management can be held accountable to the investors.

From September to November in 1997, I got a good chance to help sort out documentary materials for the central government"s Ministry of Foreign Trade Economic Cooperation at its Department of American Oceanian Affairs. On that job, I learned a lot about international trade. In the summer of 1998, I worked for the Special Appliances for Labor Protection Company in my hometown Chengdu, advising the manager on how to improve the company"s managing and marketing system. Some of my advice was readily accepted. To have a taste of the stock market in China, I invested 2, 000 RMB in the stock market in January 1996. From May to November in 1996, the prices of stocks soared, and as a result, I earned over 900 RMB, which I promptly donated to a charity project for the education of poor children in the rural areas.

But hard times hit me in December 1996, when the government threw cold water on the excessive speculation by vowing not to prop up the stock market in any circumstances. The prices of stocks plummeted immediately, and I lost about 300 RMB. From the sudden fluctuations, I learned that the Chinese were still inexperienced investors and that the regulatory regime over the stock exchanges needed a lot of improvements. I have also acted as a private tutor for a 15-year-old boy for a year. I taught him mathematics and English and improved his grades in the two subjects from C to B. This way, I not only earned some money but also get some experience of teaching.

Through the above and other activities, I have enriched my experiences gained a profound understanding of my motherland and its urgent need for quality economists. I have made up my mind to devote my life to the research and teaching of Economics. To achieve this career, I must pursue more advanced studies. I have already learned economics in probably the best economics program in China. To meet higher intellectual challenges, I think it is best that I do graduate studies in a Western university. With the knowledge I have learned at Beijing University and the practical experiences I have gained in recent years, I am confident that I can meet the requirements for acceptance. My goal is to become a professor teaching economics in a Chinese university after I complete my graduate studies

To pursue studies abroad, I have achieved an excellent command of English. I have read many economics essays written in English and helped translate English essays for professor Hu, my teacher, when she is too busy. To improve my oral English, I have frequented the English Corner on the Beijing University campus, where students often gather to conduct conversations in English. I have also watched many American movies in English. Now, I can talk with the foreign students in my department fluently. I do believe that I will have no trouble studying in English in America.

With anticipation and excitement, I am now applying for acceptance into your graduate program in economics. As a student, I have achieved excellence in China, and I should achieve no less in the US. The combination of my quality education in both China and the US should send me soaring into an enlightened intellectual realm, from which I shall finally see the light at the end of the tunnel for China"s problem of poverty. I can, and I should, help realize my parents" dream. (好文章应当首尾呼应。第一段提到父母的梦想，结尾时重新着眼于这个梦想，文章就变得强有力了。)So I sincerely ask you to consider my application favorably.
