首先，我是做nano传热的，硕士一年多现在一直在实验室做TDTR （时域热反射）(希望能找到同道中人）；自己三维都不高有点自卑，但是一年的科研加上快完成要投出去的paper也许会有帮助；我选的学校都是机械系里面有教授在做我这个方向，所以research都是highly matched。自己选完学校以后问了问advisor然后那里面的人他70%都认识，做nano heat transfer的圈子真的很小欸，MIT的陈刚一个巨头，UIUC的David Cahill是TDTR的大牛，这些教授基本都是他们的学生，要不就是他们学生的学生……
推荐信，自己Advisor一封，系里两个professor一人一封（应该算是牛腿了吧，每个人的google scholar 引用量都20000+了）可惜他们俩一个做碳纳米管一个做计算机流体的，和我做的传热没有特别相似的地方。不过其中一个professor直接让我自己写template然后给他所以可以多放点好的进去？
申请学校如下：
强强校：UT-Austin（已投，新来一个中国女AP在做TDTR); CMU（2个美国人在做传热); Gatech（传热大本营之一，三个美国人做nano传热，大概都了解，Cola做的往碳纳米管上镀薄层正好是原来一个教授想让我实验室帮忙的东西）
强校：UCLA（已投，比较想去，胡永杰是陈刚的弟子）UCSB（硕士申请时候被拒，想去，廖浡霖是陈刚弟子+1）UWN-Twin Cities （王小佳和我advisor关系不错）CU-Boulder（杨荣贵是个大牛，陈刚关门弟子）Purdue（传热大本营，徐先凡是个大牛）主申：Ohio State（一个土耳其AP，了解不多）UD（我自己的母校，我导师是Cahill的学生）UVa（传热小本营，专排不高但是很多教授都做传热，UVa我导师认识一大堆人）NCSU（刘军是Cahill的学生）

想让各位看看我三维的硬伤能不能被我这边的经历弥补一来足够申请这些学校；我自己本科和硕士绩点都不高，2017来美国读个硕士也就是为了积攒点科研经历和认识一些牛人为PhD准备，而且这个时候自己对自己做的东西了解还是比国内人多的。不过还恳请懂行的前辈和各位朋友提提建议。当然，欢迎今年一起申请ME的一起交流，我一个人还没找到大部队！欢迎私信

第二个拒信，没想到OSU会拒，说是申请的时候就拒现在还拒，真心对我不友好；看来有paper正在投和没有paper没什么区别啊……

收到了UVa一个professor的邮件，是群发的；所以收件人应该很多（反正陶瓷不也是群发）来GTER报一下，有帮助的话请帮我加分吧谢谢！如果也有其他人收到了这个老师的邮件那就太好了正好可以找一找同道中人！不过我申UVa套的不是这位老师！

I am interested in your application submitted to UVA, and I am writing to see if you are interested in joining my research groups as Graduate Research Assistants (GRA). If you are not interested, please ignore. If you are interested, read on for more details.

1.    I am looking for PhD candidates AND with GRE quantitative score at least 160 to work with me as GRAs toward your PhD degree. If you are interested by do not meet these requirements, plz let me know. These GRA positions will pay you an annual stipend around, cover your tuition, and provide basic benefits like health insurance. More info is in the attached flyer.

2.    Please inform me via email by Jan 13 2019 (Sunday) if you are interested or not. If I do not receive your responses by then, I will move on assuming you are not.

3.    It is very important that you send your response by replying to this email under the same subject (i.e., 2019 Fall UVA application). Otherwise, your email will most likely get lost or filtered out.

4.    If you are interested, I have prepared three mini-projects for you to complete, so that I could better assess your research background, and you can also learn more about my research and my advisory style.

5.    I have to make it clear up front that these mini-projects are by no means easy. Some of them are part of our research projects (simplified to some extend), and could require up to two or three days of dedicated work if you want to do a good job. You all have strong academic background, and there is no point to give out simple problems.

6.    My recruit timeline – my target is to finalize the offers by mid Feb. After I gather your responses by Jan 13, I will send out the mini-projects shortly and let you work on them for a week. Then I will collect and review your work by week ending on Jan 21, followed by some telephone interviews and offer decisions by mid Feb.

7.    Last but not least, please do not hesitate to ask me if you have questions.
