英国拉夫堡大学博士课程-学霸都心动了

对于申请博士，很多小伙伴又好奇又迷惑又心生敬畏。PHD（博士）就是学习的巅峰，是标志着个人具备研究出原创成果的能力。完成了博士，就转身成为了专家级“玩家”。

那么如何申请博士呢，下面为你提供纯干货：博士申请三部曲~~

1、前期基本工作

博士和研究生学习的目的不大相同。研究生的学习目的除了获取相关领域的基础和延展性知识外，还会针对相关的就业领域，为以后的就业提供思路做准备。同时英国的研究生也会有部分提供实习或带薪实习的机会。而博士则纯粹是理论知识深入探讨和研究。是对科学或社会的某个感兴趣的领域探索的过程。博士主要探索理论，将前沿实事转化为知识。所以前期需要充分了解博士的学习方式，和希望研究的领域课题。多搜罗一些相关的期刊文章，网站资源和前辈的研究，还有哪些不同角度新颖的课程或想法，从而为研究报告做准备。

2、准备申请材料

英国的博士基本申请材料和研究生大致相同，学位证和毕业证，成绩单，个人陈述，简历，两封推荐信，还有语言成绩。除了这些，博士申请特有的，也是最重要的就是研究报告了。研究报告是体现你对即将要在博士阶段研究课题的想法介绍，是给博士导师的最初印象。是显示你研究的能力和潜力，也是录取的关键因素。下面我们来看下全英前10的大学拉夫堡大学对于申请博士的研究报告的小建议：

研究报告前期需要引用5W+1H的问题引入课题。
What：研究的课题是什么
Why：课题研究的意义是为了什么。
How：课题是通过什么方式来研究
Where：研究课题的地域是哪里
Who：课题针对的群体是谁
When：课题研究的时间点或时间段在哪里
有了这些问题引入思路，报告就能缩小范围，更有针对性。

研究报告内容需要包括：
在相关文献中论证选题的理由；
课题研究的目的和目标
研究方法
潜在的最初作品贡献
研究可能的产生的影响
包含3年的博士学习的计划甘特图

研究报告中需要体现：
想法的科学合理性和原创性
批判的思维能力和清晰的写作能力
相关文献的掌握能力
在研究领域的洞察力
处理数据的能力
对即将研究课题困难的了解

3、套磁
一旦确定了研究的领域，写好了研究报告，就要尽早套磁了。需主动邮件联系导师。告诉导师你对他负责的研究课题兴趣浓厚，可以说，“我对您所研究的领域十分感兴趣，也希望成为您的学生，并以此领域作为我的博士研究课题的方向。”然后就能以一个未来博士生的身份跟导师交流了。导师也会根据研究报告和相应的想法沟通来评估。

完成以上三部曲，博士的申请基本已经大功告成了。千万不要轻视这三步曲，一环紧扣一环缺一不可。导师同意后即可进行网申。同时需确定语言的能力，是否需要衔接学期语言课程。毕竟语言课程也为以后的学习生活提供很好的语言基础。

拉夫堡大学的博士申请可以免去套磁的环节，直接申请哦，这样又能更减轻一部分的压力和负担，多些时间准备研究报告或准备语言。同时只要你能体现较强的相关研究能力，本科毕业生也可以申请博士。

以上研究课程申请，如足够优秀还能申请到Studentship可减免全部的学费。
说到这里，很多同学会疑惑，什么是Studentship？和Scholarship有什么不一样。那小编再科普一下：

OxfordUniversity对“Studentship”的项目说明：A departmental awardwhich provides funding for postgraduate research students who are working onspecific projects. And the funding is normally provided by an organization suchas a Research Council or through a combination of funds from an academicdepartment or external body.

所以不同于Scholarship，

1、Studentship通常是由具体机构为具体研究课题而设立的项目，也就是说，这个项目已经有了具体的研究方向和研究题目，而且一般有了导师负责。所以，同学们就不用纠结如何选题，也就不用盲目陶瓷~
2、由于Studentship由具体的机构赞助，所以对于申请人会有一定的要求。可能某个EU或者英国本土的机构只赞助自家学生，可能不考虑国际学生。

拉夫堡大学以上提到的研究课题的Studentship都是开放给国际生哒。博士3年的学费全减免，简直惊呆小伙伴。要申请这个Studentship需要和导师联系，讨论研究课题，提交proposal，阐述想法；附加CV等必备申请材料。每个材料需要非常细致的准备以备通过导师的审核。

你难道不心动么？！如果我是学霸，没人能拦我，马上申请~~~
