: 噓 aaaa8444: 讀完碩士代表你有一定的專業水準，如果想要進修可以攻 03/22 22:35 : → aaaa8444: 讀博士。是有足夠門票"進入博班考驗"不是直接拿到博士 03/22 22:35 : → aaaa8444: 學位。我想你是搞錯我的意思了。 03/22 22:35 : → aaaa8444: https://i.imgur.com/rivUWQE.jpg

03/22 22:36 讀完碩士表示: 有足夠門票"進入博班考驗" 各國博士班入學要求項目除了碩士班畢業以外，還有其他項目，比如美國會要求檢附一般研究生測試(GRE)成績、大學與碩班逐年成績單、推薦信等等。我國則有博士班入學筆試和口試與推薦信等等。以上種種客觀事實皆指出，即使已經拿到碩士學位，也不必然有資格取得某學校博士班的入學資格而"進入博班考驗"。 : → aaaa8444: 碩士學位設立的初衷本來就是博生先修班。能夠拿到碩士 03/22 22:39 : → aaaa8444: 的基本條件是有基本研究能力，能夠協助PI進行研究。雖 03/22 22:39 : → aaaa8444: 然後來在台灣變質成職場先修班，但還是不影響碩士學位 03/22 22:39 : → aaaa8444: 的訓練內容。當然夠強也能跳直博。 03/22 22:39 "碩士學位設立的初衷本來就是博生先修班"? 我們就不說商學管理碩士(Master of Business Administration; MBA) 這種設計目標明顯就是實業導向的特殊學位了，看看以下例子: https://gsas.nyu.edu/content/nyu-as/gsas/programs/masters-programs/prospective-students/why-pursue-a-master-s-degree.html Many GSAS students have more than a single reason for considering graduate studies at the master’s level. Students often enter master’s degree programs: To start a new career in a chosen professional field To prepare for graduate study at the doctoral level To expand their knowledge of fields related to their current areas of professional specialization To study a field they love and to explore future employment in a related area To acquire skills in new technologies and methods that have developed in their fields To improve their relative standing in a competitive field and a challenging job market To prepare for entrepreneurial projects that require expertise in a specific field of study To gain access to the professional resources available in New York City To take advantage of the outstanding resources available at a world-class research university To gain recognition and credibility To get out from behind the desk 人生很廣闊，請不要以為所有的人攻取學數學位都是為了最終拿取博士學位。 : → SmallRice45: 跟學生個性不合是一回事，別扼殺學生未來發展啊 03/22 22:51 不只一位網友提到盡量給想讀博士班的學生機會云云，或者要考慮自己人緣云云，然而，就收到推薦信的單位，對方的預期，參考下面例子: https://students.tufts.edu/sites/default/files/Writing_recommendations.pdf What is the purpose of a letter of recommendation? A letter of recommendation is “expert testimony” regarding the ability of a person to perform a task. The tasks may include performing a job, succeeding in graduate school, or profiting from a particular experience (such as foreign study/travel). This purpose is the ultimate reason for a letter of recommendation; everything in the letter supports the act of making an informed recommendation. 上面寫得很嚴肅，推薦信的內容代表一種「知情的專家證詞」，而且它對撰寫人有下列影響: There is some risk to professional credibility if the writer consistently writes letters for applicant’s who are not qualified. 當學生方面的「__好人」，同時也是給博班入學委員會製造額外負擔的「壞人」。其間的分際，對撰寫人個人的利害得失，大家自行拿捏。另外，原發問人在它文的推文提到: → cwhalf: 我個人比較認為推薦信比較是總結他的碩士班 03/22 15:57 → cwhalf: 不是在預期他博士班 03/22 15:57 這點並非收信人的預期，請參考下列內容: An informed recommendation is no small matter for the letter writer. Graduate programs, for instance, make very clear they need letters which comment on a student’s likelihood of ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ succeeding in graduate school. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ 如上述，推薦信內的「總結」，需要針對被推薦人未來取得新學位的成功概率去總結。此點尚可參另外一連結: https://www.tgs.northwestern.edu/admission/application-procedures/application-requirements/letters-of-recommendation.html When considering a recommender, give some thought to the following questions: Does the faculty in the program to which you are applying know your letter writers? Will they write fair and thoughtful recommendations for you? Can they speak to your academic research and accomplishments and your potential for graduate study? ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc), 來自: 114.44.192.244 (臺灣) ※ 文章網址: https://www.ptt.cc/bbs/AfterPhD/M.1584905905.A.C5E.html
