套磁题目

套磁题目：建议套磁的时候把教授发的文章题目作为套磁信的题目，这样的话教授会注意下。我开始套磁的时就用的这一招，效果不错，至少教授会觉得你看了他网页，或者说知道他是谁。不过后来嫌麻烦，就直接写的我自己感情趣的方向的名称。比如我想学蛋白质工程那我题目就直接写的：protein engineering～，这类信教授也都回复了我的。

什么样的题目才是合宜的？一个好的标题，要能简洁地概括邮件的目的或内容。如果你对教授的某个研究项目感兴趣，就可以用这个研究方向作标题，例如"Deformation and fracture of hexagonal close-packed metals"或者"Fabrication of semiconductor through chemical vapor deposition"等等。然后在邮件的正文里，可以谈谈你对这个方向如何感兴趣，你有什么相关的学术背景，还有你对这个研究领域的任何见解。如果你对教授的某一篇文章很感兴趣，并且你的邮件正文里要谈到这篇文章，那么用这篇文章的标题作为邮件的标题也是个不错的主意。如果文章的标题过长，可以把它压缩一下。

此外，还有人喜欢用一种开门见山式的标题，比如"Inquiry into graduate admission of fall 2011"。这种题目我本人没有尝试过，不知道效果如何，有兴趣的同学可以自己去尝试

OPINION 1µ This is a nontrivial process, and to be effective does not con-

must be sent with out some ”personalization”, meaning some statement, just

a few lines, as to why you want to work with a certain person, revealing some

in your work.”, or “Your excellent work has attracted my attention,” are rec-

ognizable as having no content, but just being polite phrases. Applications

which do not contain such a specific approach are likely to be automatically

ejected by almost everyone in the US, because it looks like you are just sending

a form letter to everyone, with no special interest in a given group. People ave

many, many postdoc applicants – they want to see that a person really wants
