新加坡南洋理工大學(xué)專業(yè)面試之一二

新加坡南洋理工大學(xué)

專業(yè)面試

有意就讀南洋理工大學(xué)的學(xué)生，

可以透過(guò)

面試、能力測(cè)試及個(gè)人作品集等

全面綜合的入學(xué)評(píng)估，

來(lái)提高自己被錄取的機(jī)會(huì)。

一個(gè)對(duì)所選課程充滿激情和熱情，

并有成功潛質(zhì)的學(xué)生，

可能比那些在學(xué)業(yè)上

更有資格申請(qǐng)同一課程的人有優(yōu)勢(shì)。

南大教務(wù)長(zhǎng)Ling San教授：

“南大新的整體教育模式，意味著我們的教授將投入更多的時(shí)間、資源和人力，去對(duì)個(gè)別學(xué)生進(jìn)行面試和評(píng)估。但我們?cè)敢膺@樣做，以更切合學(xué)生對(duì)學(xué)科的抱負(fù)和熱情，只要他們能向我們表明，他們能夠應(yīng)對(duì)所選學(xué)位課程的嚴(yán)格要求。

準(zhǔn)備好面試了嗎？

記住這些建議：

?? 準(zhǔn)時(shí)回復(fù)面試邀請(qǐng)，準(zhǔn)時(shí)到場(chǎng)。

???穿得體面些。不要穿著人字拖或有破洞的牛仔褲，不要頭發(fā)亂蓬蓬。這可能表明你對(duì)面試不感興趣。

???知道你為什么在那里。 如果你想追求科學(xué)，成為一名研究人員，就要展示你對(duì)科學(xué)和研究領(lǐng)域的了解。

???提問(wèn)。問(wèn)一些你想知道答案的相關(guān)問(wèn)題。最糟糕的是什么都不問(wèn)。

???放松。 面試是我們認(rèn)識(shí)你的一個(gè)機(jī)會(huì)，也是你認(rèn)識(shí)南大的一個(gè)機(jī)會(huì)。

???忠于職守。不要在最后一刻退出面試，因?yàn)檫@會(huì)給人留下不好的印象。

各學(xué)院教授的建議：

機(jī)械與航空航天工程學(xué)院

“Admissions interviews are not about impressing the interviewers but for us to learn more about who you are.”

– Assoc Prof Yeong Wai Yee，School of Mechanical & Aerospace Engineering

“招生面試不是為了給面試官留下深刻印象，而是為了讓我們更多地了解你是誰(shuí)。”

-? 機(jī)械與航空航天工程學(xué)院，副教授Yeong Wai Yee

人文學(xué)院

“I often ask students what they’ve read recently that’s moved them – or even to just share their favourite book or movie. Many of them can’t name any meaningful book, play or film. Not having any ideas makes it hard for us to imagine the student’s commitment to a four-year degree course where reading is fundamental!”

– Asst Prof Kevin Riordan, School of Humanities

“我經(jīng)常問(wèn)學(xué)生們最近讀了什么讓他們感動(dòng)的書(shū)或電影，甚至只是讓他們分享他們最喜歡的書(shū)或電影。他們中的很多人都說(shuō)不出任何有意義的書(shū)籍、戲劇或電影。沒(méi)有任何想法的學(xué)生讓我們很難想象他會(huì)選擇以閱讀為基礎(chǔ)的四年制學(xué)位課程！”

-? 人文學(xué)院，助理教授Kevin Riordan

李光前醫(yī)學(xué)院

“Students should try to be genuine, natural and honest in their answers. Show us your true conviction and passion to pursue a career in medicine. Answers that are not ‘run-of-the-mill’ would be preferred. Instead of answering ‘I want to help people’, when asked why you want to be a doctor, share with us your unique reasons that distinguish you from others.”

– Assoc Prof Kwek Tong Kiat, Lee Kong Chian School of Medicine

“學(xué)生在回答問(wèn)題時(shí)應(yīng)該真誠(chéng)、自然、誠(chéng)實(shí)。向我們展示你追求醫(yī)學(xué)事業(yè)的真正信念和熱情。非”普通“答案會(huì)優(yōu)先考慮。當(dāng)被問(wèn)及為什么想成為一名醫(yī)生時(shí)，請(qǐng)與我們分享你與眾不同的獨(dú)特理由，而不是回答'我想幫助別人”

-李光前醫(yī)學(xué)院，副教授Kwek Tong Kiat

南洋商學(xué)院

“It’s often not what you say at the interviews, but your energy and enthusiasm that matters. Engage and retain the attention of the interviewer by making it a lively conversation. It is also important for students to communicate and not wait for questions from the interviewer before they speak.”

– Assoc Prof Low Kin Yew, Nanyang Business School

“重要的往往不是你在面試中說(shuō)了什么，而是你的精力和熱情。通過(guò)生動(dòng)的談話來(lái)吸引并保持面試官的注意力。對(duì)學(xué)生來(lái)說(shuō)，交流也很重要，不要等到面試官提問(wèn)后才開(kāi)口。”

- 南洋商學(xué)院，副教授Low Kin Yew

計(jì)算機(jī)科學(xué)與工程學(xué)院

“Through admissions interviews, we are able to assess the potential of a student beyond his academic results, as well as his suitability for the programme as seen through his passion.”

– Assoc Prof Nicholas Vun, School of Computer Science & Engineering

“通過(guò)招生面試，我們能夠評(píng)估一個(gè)學(xué)生在學(xué)業(yè)成績(jī)之外的潛力，以及通過(guò)他的熱情來(lái)看他是否適合這個(gè)專業(yè)課程?！?/p>

- 計(jì)算機(jī)科學(xué)與工程學(xué)院，副教授Nicholas Vun

社會(huì)科學(xué)學(xué)院

“Qualities we look for in students include a drive to learn, confidence without being brash, the ability to articulate interest in their proposed major, and clear ideas about how NTU will help with their personal and professional goals. Willingness to contribute to society and having personal aspirations are also attractive qualities.”

– Dr Rebecca Nichols, School of Social Sciences

我們希望學(xué)生具備的素質(zhì)包括:求知欲強(qiáng)、自信而不魯莽、對(duì)所學(xué)專業(yè)表達(dá)興趣的能力，以及對(duì)南大如何幫助他實(shí)現(xiàn)個(gè)人和職業(yè)目標(biāo)的清晰想法。愿意為社會(huì)做出貢獻(xiàn)和有個(gè)人抱負(fù)也是很有吸引力的品質(zhì)?！?/p>

-社會(huì)科學(xué)學(xué)院，博士Rebecca Nichols

亞洲環(huán)境學(xué)院

“Communicate your enthusiasm for the programme, and for the environment in general. It almost always grabs our attention when a student can link what we’re talking about to wider world issues. It’s a good sign when students can make the interview feel more like a conversation rather than just answering questions.”

– Dr Natasha Bhatia, Asian School of the Environment

“表述你對(duì)這個(gè)專業(yè)課程和整體環(huán)境的熱情。當(dāng)一個(gè)學(xué)生能夠把我們談?wù)摰脑掝}與更廣泛的世界問(wèn)題聯(lián)系起來(lái)時(shí)，他幾乎總是能吸引我們的注意力。這是一個(gè)好跡象，因?yàn)閷W(xué)生們可以讓面試感覺(jué)更像是一場(chǎng)對(duì)話，而不僅僅是回答問(wèn)題。”

- 亞洲環(huán)境學(xué)院，博士Natasha Bhatia

復(fù)興工程

“The Renaissance Engineering Programme conducts multiple mini interviews for its candidates. Through the five to six interview stages, we assess the students’ creativity, critical thinking, communication skills and leadership. There are no wrong or right answers. We just want to find out more about how you think, how you communicate, your interests and your passion. So if I were you, I’d just be myself – calm, composed and exuding confidence.”

– Prof Lalit Goel, Director of Renaissance Engineering Programme

復(fù)興工程項(xiàng)目為其候選人進(jìn)行多次小型面試。通過(guò)五到六個(gè)面試階段，我們?cè)u(píng)估學(xué)生的創(chuàng)造力、批判性思維、溝通技巧和領(lǐng)導(dǎo)能力。答案沒(méi)有對(duì)錯(cuò)之分。我們只想了解更多關(guān)于您的思考方式，溝通方式，興趣和激情。所以如果我是你，我就做我自己——冷靜，沉著，充滿自信。

- 復(fù)興工程主管，教授Lalit Goel

黃金輝傳播與信息學(xué)院

“I have a favourite story with a candidate who was clearly not on the right wavelength:

Interviewer: What aspect of media interests you most?

Candidate: I like movies.

I: Excellent! Tell us about a movie you've enjoyed recently, and why.

C:?Er...?(long pause)

I: In that case, just tell us about a movie you've seen.

C:?Er...?(embarrassingly long pause)

I: [Sigh] OK,?name?a movie you've seen.

C: ...

I: OK, name a movie,?any?movie.

C:?Er....

We did not consider her a good fit for the school! Professors have devoted their lives to becoming experts in their subjects, so try to match their enthusiasm by showing you are really enthusiastic about some aspect of the school. And have a few examples of cool stuff (that are relevant) you have seen and noticed, and want to learn about.”

– Asst Prof Andrew Duffy, Wee Kim Wee School of Communication & Information

我有一個(gè)關(guān)于面試的故事，講的是一個(gè)不合事宜的候選人：

面試官: 你對(duì)媒體的哪些方面最感興趣？

應(yīng)聘者: 我喜歡電影。

面試官: 太好了！告訴我們你最近喜歡的一部電影，以及原因。

應(yīng)聘者: 呃……（長(zhǎng)時(shí)間停頓）

面試官: 如果是那樣的話，就給我們講講你看過(guò)的一部電影。

應(yīng)聘者: 呃……（長(zhǎng)時(shí)間尷尬地停頓）

面試官: ?[嘆氣] 好的，就說(shuō)出你看過(guò)的一部電影的名字。

應(yīng)聘者:……

面試官: 好的，說(shuō)出一部電影的名字，任何一部電影。

應(yīng)聘者: 呃……

我們認(rèn)為她不適合這所學(xué)校！教授們畢生致力于成為他們學(xué)科的專家，所以盡量通過(guò)表明你對(duì)學(xué)校某些方面的熱情來(lái)配合他們的熱情。并舉幾個(gè)你看到、注意到、想要了解的很酷的例子(相關(guān)的)。”

-黃金輝傳播與信息學(xué)院，助理教授Andrew Duffy，

物理與數(shù)學(xué)科學(xué)學(xué)院

“Do not give short answers like ‘yes’ or ‘no’. Tell us your motivation for applying to the programme. More importantly, don’t feed fuzzy information as interviewers will chase the line of questioning if they find an answer fishy. In short, don’t be pretentious.”

– Assoc Prof Tan Howe Siang, School of Physical & Mathematical Sciences

“不要簡(jiǎn)單地回答是或不是。告訴我們你申請(qǐng)這個(gè)課程的動(dòng)機(jī)。更重要的是，不要提供模糊的信息，因?yàn)槿绻嬖嚬侔l(fā)現(xiàn)答案有疑點(diǎn)，他們會(huì)追根究底。 總之，不要自命不凡?！?/p>

-物理與數(shù)學(xué)科學(xué)學(xué)院，副教授Tan Howe Siang

人文學(xué)院

“The single biggest obstacle is not knowing what you have applied for. I am not interested in generic answers. If there is passion for the subject, it usually comes out in the conversation.”

– Assoc Prof Daniel Jernigan, School of Humanities

“最大妨礙是不知道你申請(qǐng)的是什么。我對(duì)一般性的答案不感興趣。如果你對(duì)申請(qǐng)的科目有激情，那么這種激情通常會(huì)在談話中流露出來(lái)。”

- 人文學(xué)院，副教授Daniel Jernigan

生物科學(xué)學(xué)院

“I once interviewed a candidate who said her next-of-kin was battling cancer as she sat for her O-level exams. She was able to demonstrate her strength of character and maturity while discussing the experience. That said, it can be risky to bring personal issues into the interview. In this particular case, it worked well.”

– Dr Wilson Goh, School of Biological Sciences

我曾經(jīng)面試過(guò)一位考生，她在參加o級(jí)考試時(shí)，她的近親正與癌癥作斗爭(zhēng)。在討論這段經(jīng)歷時(shí)，她展示了自己性格的堅(jiān)強(qiáng)和成熟。話雖如此，把個(gè)人問(wèn)題帶進(jìn)面試中是有風(fēng)險(xiǎn)的。在這個(gè)特殊的案例中，效果很好?！?/p>

- 生物科學(xué)學(xué)院，博士Wilson Goh

人文學(xué)院

"As an interviewer, I am trying to figure out whether you are going to enjoy studying and reading history for four years. If you actually don't like history, then it’s probably not going to be the best choice for you. Don't be afraid to share parts of your life that may not be directly relevant to the subject you are applying for. I've been impressed by students who have worked at part-time jobs or done interesting volunteer activities."

– Assoc Prof Hallam Stevens, School of Humanities

“作為一名面試官，我想知道你是否喜歡學(xué)習(xí)和閱讀四年的歷史。如果你真的不喜歡歷史，那么它可能不是你最好的選擇。不要害怕分享你生活中與你申請(qǐng)的科目沒(méi)有直接關(guān)系的部分。我對(duì)那些做過(guò)兼職工作或做過(guò)有趣的志愿者活動(dòng)的學(xué)生印象深刻?！?/p>

- 人文學(xué)院，副教授Hallam Stevens
