01如何寫好一篇建筑學專業(yè)PS？

【圖片來自網(wǎng)絡】

第一步：表達你的熱情與動機

• 這是你展示對建筑學興趣和理解的機會。不要泛泛而談“我喜歡建筑”，而要具體說明 為什么喜歡、被什么啟發(fā)、未來目標是什么。
• 你是因某位建筑師、紀錄片或社會事件受到啟發(fā)嗎？
• 你是否對未來的職業(yè)目標（城市更新、可持續(xù)發(fā)展、規(guī)劃設計）有初步設想？
• 你喜歡的建筑或城市空間是什么？為什么？
• 有沒有特別欣賞的建筑師？你可以解釋你欣賞他的哪種設計理念。

案例：

• Try to answer the following questions: What prompted your interest in architecture? Are there any buildings and/or places you particularly like? Explain why – don't just list where you've been.
• Which architects do you admire and why? If you like Santiago Calatrava, for example, explain what stands out to you about his work?
• What do you see yourself doing with an architecture or planning degree? Would you like to shape the cities of the future, focus on regeneration, or sustainability?
• Ensure you fit what you say in your statement with the course you’re applying to. Admissions tutors at University of Sheffield also emphasise 'the most important thing is to be yourself' and that you shouldn’t 'put stuff in because you think it sounds good’, but also add ‘a(chǎn) few days’ work experience in a local practice would be beneficial, but not essential’.

第二步：展現(xiàn)你具備的能力與潛力

建筑學不僅需要創(chuàng)造力，也要求邏輯思維、研究能力和動手實踐。

• 你在美術、設計或數(shù)學中的優(yōu)勢如何幫助你？
• 你是否做過相關學術項目或課程作業(yè)？
• 你是否具備團隊合作、解決問題、數(shù)據(jù)分析等跨學科技能？
• 你有沒有參加過線上課程（如Subject Spotlights 或 Springpod Virtual Work Experiences）提升建筑相關知識？

案例：

• What do you like doing and/or what have you done well in academically that you think is relevant to studying architecture or planning? Are you a good designer, or good at model-making? Do you have a mathematical mind or enjoy logic problems?
• If you studied art or design technology, how do you think some of the drawing, technical, and creative skills you learned may help you on an architecture or planning course?
• Professor Goodfellow from the University of Sheffield wants you to show you've done your research. He's looking for students who are 'willing to go the extra mile in terms of exploring both the ethical and practical challenges of planning in the twenty-first century’. Can you mention a time you’ve successfully overcome a challenge in a piece of work, or researched planning laws in parts of the UK for a project?
• Have you done any online courses to boost your knowledge in the subject? For example, why not try Subject Spotlights or Virtual Work Experiences from Springpod to grow your skills and interest?

第三步：連接更廣闊的經(jīng)歷與生活

建筑與生活息息相關，你的課外經(jīng)歷、個人愛好和人生體驗都可以成為文書的有力補充。

• 你是否做過與建筑或規(guī)劃相關的實習？
• 你有哪些愛好能體現(xiàn)創(chuàng)造力和執(zhí)行力？（如攝影、手繪、樂高、運動）
• 你是否有過管理項目、組織活動或展示成果的經(jīng)歷？
• 你的生活背景是否帶來了獨特視角？（如居住環(huán)境讓你思考城市設計或社會住房）

案例：

• How can you demonstrate your innovation and creativity? Maybe you’ve experimented with sustainable materials in your model-making, designed a home in The Sims or in Minecraft, or carried out your own photography project.
• Have you done any shadowing or work experience that shows you know a little about the industry? Outline what you learned and why it has sparked your interest in this subject.
• Tell tutors about hobbies you do outside school that show you’re motivated to learn and complete a task, whether that’s Lego, judo, or sketching – that will definitely come in handy for architecture courses.
• Think of a time when you’ve successfully managed a project, shown leadership skills, and/or done a presentation, whether in a work or school environment.
• What other qualities do you have that would make you suitable for this course? Maybe you’ve lived in a dense urban environment or in social housing which has given you ideas of how best to design and build affordable housing.

02PS中需要注意什么？

【圖片來自網(wǎng)絡】

?Do：推薦的寫作做法

• 始終把案例和專業(yè)興趣聯(lián)系起來，保持相關性。
• 突出個人特色，讓招生官感受到“你是誰”。
• 認真檢查語法拼寫，避免低級錯誤。
• 主動向老師或家人尋求反饋。
• 做足調(diào)研，明確目標大學看重的要素。

?Don’t：寫作時避免的誤區(qū)

• 不要只是羅列經(jīng)歷，而缺乏分析和反思。
• 不要照搬網(wǎng)上的模版，更不能讓AI 代寫。
• 不要編造虛假經(jīng)歷。
• 不要拖到最后一刻才開始寫，PS 需要反復修改打磨。
• 不要擔心每一部分字數(shù)不均，關鍵是整體邏輯清晰。

招生官的建議

• 展現(xiàn)技能：無論是繪圖、策劃還是團隊合作，都要結(jié)合具體情境來說明。
• 研究課程：解釋你為什么想學建筑與規(guī)劃，課程的哪些部分吸引了你。
• 學科關聯(lián)：提及之前的學習如何與你的建筑目標相聯(lián)系，比如地理中的測繪或資源研究。
• 技能遷移：兼職、運動或興趣愛好都能體現(xiàn)溝通、組織與時間管理能力。
• 保持真實：招生官希望看到的是一個有獨立思考和真實動機的申請者。

建筑學PS 的關鍵在于創(chuàng)意與邏輯并重，把你對空間的獨特理解、學術積累與生活體驗結(jié)合起來，才能寫出一篇真正打動招生官的申請文書。
