加州理工學(xué)院2024fall附加文書(shū)有哪些？

隨著申請(qǐng)季的開(kāi)啟，加州理工學(xué)院2024fall附加文書(shū)已經(jīng)發(fā)布，到底有哪些不同呢，讓我們具體來(lái)看看吧！

Required Academic Question

Because of the rigorous courses in the core curriculum, Caltech students don't declare a major until the end of their first year. However, some students arrive knowing which academic fields and areas already most excite them, or which novel fields and areas they most want to explore.

If you had to choose an area of interest or two today, what would you choose? Why did you choose that area of interest? (Max: 200 words)

必答學(xué)術(shù)問(wèn)題

由于核心課程的嚴(yán)格要求，加州理工學(xué)院的學(xué)生在第一學(xué)年結(jié)束前不會(huì)選擇專(zhuān)業(yè)。然而，有些學(xué)生來(lái)到這里時(shí)，已經(jīng)知道哪些學(xué)術(shù)領(lǐng)域讓他們最感興趣，或者哪些新穎的領(lǐng)域是他們最想探索的。

如果你今天必須選擇一個(gè)或兩個(gè)感興趣的領(lǐng)域，你會(huì)選擇什么?你為什么選擇這個(gè)感興趣的領(lǐng)域?(最多200字)

Required Short Answer Questions

1.At Caltech, we investigate some of the most challenging, fundamental problems in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. Identify and describe two STEM-related experiences from your high school years, either in or out of the classroom, and tell us how and why they activated your curiosity. What about them made you want to learn more and explore further? (Min: 100/Max: 200 words for each experience)

2.The creativity, inventiveness, and innovation of Caltech's students, faculty, and researchers have won Nobel Prizes and put rovers on Mars. But Techers also imagine smaller scale innovations every day, from new ways to design solar cells to how to 3D print dorm decor. How have you been a creator, inventor, or innovator in your own life? (Min: 200 / Max: 250)

3.Caltech's mission – to cultivate learning, discovery, and innovation for the benefit of humanity – relies on its community members embracing fundamental Caltech values:

Openness and enthusiasm for having preconceptions challenged

Respect and appreciation for the idea that, while we are all members of the same community, the opportunities we've had to develop, showcase, and apply our talents have not been equal

Passion for the ideal that science can and should meaningfully improve the lives of others

Share what one or more of these values evokes for you. (Min: 200 / Max: 400)
