帝国理工学院航空航天工程面试经验汇总

    博士申请

    1. 学生背景:北京航空航天大学;面试时间:2013年4月8日

    报个offer,13年秋Department of Aeronautics的PhD,拿了欧盟的Marie Curie Fellowship(运气太好了),一共三年。

    简单背景:

    申请大概是两个月以前开始的,过程比较曲折,在提交了推荐信后得到Skype面试通知,这周一(指2013年4月8日)面完,过了3天就收到了offer。

    下面分享一下面试的情况:

    面试一共3个教授,开始就打了招呼,没有寒暄,直接让我做presentation。这个是提前通知我准备的,限制5页,5分钟,要包括研究经历,个人专长(key strength),对哪些项目有兴趣(面试通知的时候发来了一份项目明细介绍),还有未来研究的想法(future ambitions)

    presentation结束之后我以为他们会就我的简历,主要是项目经历提一些问题,可完全不是。下面是问题(比较专业,航空的尤其是流体同学可以借

    1. What is vorticity? In what scenarios would you consider a vorticity significant?

    2. Q: How do you know your experiment results are correct?

    A: ... compare with simulation results...

    Q: But simulation results also have error, how do you know YOUR experiment results are correct?

    3. What is continuity? Equation?

    4. Q: Why do you want to do 3D measurements? They are expensive

    A: ...the subject of study is highly 3D...

    Q: So because of the subject is 3D, you will have to do 3D measurements?

    5. How do you know your data collection is enough?

    6. If you measured a random quantity u^2, then you want to calculate u^6. Do you need more or less data to yield the same accuracy?

    大概就这些,每个问题都有很深的跟进,不过交流还算顺利。那边三位基本面无表情,很专业,所以面完以后我也不知道自己答得怎么样…不过照结果看来还是合格的,整个面试持续大概30分钟。
