麦吉尔大学计算机科学-硕士MSc专业介绍和入学要求

Transcript: University Transcripts An unofficial copy of your complete university-level academic record to date must be uploaded, using UApply. If the transcript does not indicate that a degree has been conferred a copy of the degree certificate (diploma) will also have to be uploaded. Transcripts in languages other than English or French must be accompanied by an English or French translation provided by the institution issuing the transcript or by a certified translator. Curriculum Vitae: M.Sc and Ph.D. applicants should also include a copy of their CV. Ph.D. applicants MUST provide a statement outlining the objective of their graduate program, i.e., preferred areas of study, potential research interests and proposed supervisors. Also, for the Ph.D. program, the School requires a list of at least 3 proposed supervisors that you would like to work with in order to process your application. Recommendation Letter: Two Completed Recommendation Forms Two (2) letters of recommendation are required. Reference letters must be uploaded directly by the referee. You must identify on the application form two referees, who are familiar with your work, and who are willing to write the letters of recommendation. You must provide a valid institutional e-mail address for each referee. For fall applications and as of October 15, 2012, McGill University will send an e-mail to each referee you identify on the application form, asking for a reference in support of your application to be admitted. If no response is received, a reminder message will be sent every two weeks. In rare cases a referee may decline the request; you will be advised by e-mail if your selected referee declines, and you will be asked to provide an alternate. Referees will be invited to log-in to a secure portion of the McGill website, where they can upload the letter(s) of reference. Letters must meet the following conditions: The electronic letters must be specific as to which program the student has applied and include information that would aid an admissions committee in making an informed decision. Letters of reference must be dated and must not be more than 12 months old. The referee must indicate his/her position and full contact information at the institution. We greatly prefer receiving academic references, that is, letters supplied by university professors or course instructors. If you had a supervisor for your university studies or for a thesis, we would like one of the letters to be supplied by this person (this is especially important for Ph.D. applicants). If you graduated from university several years ago, we realize that it may be difficult to obtain academic references. In this case, you may substitute letters from your employers or co-workers. (We give academic references much more weight when assessing an application).
