It was my great honor to have the chance to talk with you the other day about my inclination to study in UNSW. I have being thinking of it from then on and also did an overall assessment about myself. I found my aspiration of going abroad is so strong.

Here, I would like to make a self-introduction so that you can have a better understanding about me. You know, my name is Xie Guibin (VIP) and I’m majoring in engineering management. During the past three years, I achieved high scores in every exam by studying hard and my total score ranked No.2 in my major. As a saying goes, “No pains, No gains,” I eventually got the opportunity to pursue my Master’s Degree in Hunan University without taking examinations.

Two years ago, I had attended your lecture on “Risk Management in Engineering” which was hold in Civil Engineering College. Frankly speaking, as a freshman I could not catch up with you .But I was greatly inspired by your words left in the very end of the lecture: “SEE YOU IN SYDNEY!” It suddenly came to me why couldn’t I go study abroad? However, that wish was gradually shrouded in the routines of daily study. When I got the news several days ago that professor Zou had became a chair professor in my college, I knew that maybe I could accomplish my dream.

As for me, I figured that the best plan is to be cultivated by both Hunan University and UNSW, and got a diploma in UNSW, but I know there is no such a channel between our two universities and it is so hard to build one now. So I have to give up the diploma in UNSW and register in Hunan University. The postgraduate cultivation mechanism in Hunan University requires 3 years’ study. I have every confidence in my ability of attaining the credits of all the subjects set by Hunan University in my first-year postgraduate study, because my score in CET-6 is high enough to apply for English course exemption, and my Advanced Mathematics always ranks NO.1 in our department. I hope I can choose you as my supervisor of postgraduate next year. My plan is to spend my second and third year in UNSW and then finish my graduation thesis after completing all the subjects here.

I know that the postgraduate cultivation mechanism in Australia requires 2 years’ study, and I believe that I will be energetic to do some research work and to help my supervisor with some projects in the remaining two years. If I am lucky enough to get a chance to further my PhD study, I could adapt to the cultural atmosphere there more easily.

As for the research expenditures you mentioned last time, after heated discussions with my parents, I think it will not be the major obstacle to my study in Australia, because they give their full support to me.

These are my initial ideas which call for further improvement for my lack of information. I am looking forward to your advice.
