當履歷整理好後就可以開始寫自傳（當然要直接寫也是可以看個人習慣做決定），在申請國際學程時我的自傳寫得很簡單，主要分成四大項：自我介紹、大學生涯與研究經驗、動機與目標、學習計畫；以下我會放上自己的自傳內容與一些反思心得供參考，但當時寫得非常倉促所以有錯字，請見諒。

Introduction

My name is Li-Yun, or Jamie, Lin. I am a senior student in Chung Shan Medical University, major in Medical Technology. I never hesitate in expressing myself, and am eager to learn different languages and face challenges since I was in elementary school. I had won lots of prizes in Chinese and English speech competitions and had excellent performance in school. During junior high, I developed my computer skills and won the first prize of PowerPoint Usage and Present competition, studied data analysis to learn to find out the advantages and disadvantages in different fields and try to figure out the best solution. In senior high, I got the government supporting to go to Japan and Korea to learn more about how to protect the environment and help other people via green technology as a short-term exchange student. I also started to do some basic science research since my freshman year. I also got excellent grades in various competitions like earthscience, biology, computer usage and so on. In the last year of senior high, I passed GEPT High-intermediate and got 765 in TOEIC. All these experiences open my view and I hope to help as much people as possible using what I have learned.

這部分我主要是介紹自己從國小到高中的特殊事蹟跟一些人格特質，家庭方面我並沒有敘述面試時也沒問。

University Life and Research Experience

In Chung Shan Medical University, I live a colorful club life. I was the 30th club leader of Chinese Martial Art Club and I lead my club win the prize in the association judge competition. I also found the Wikipedia translation club, hope to help students learn from multi-field and share what they have learned to each other. As for my performances in class, I have not only acted as class officer such as vice class leader, class secretary, and class treasurer, but also maintained a stable academic performance as well. Due to my efficient time arrangement, I participate in several research projects and have many summer intern experiences. I joined my homeroom professor’s lab in my first semester of university, did the drug test on animal model, tried to reveal the interaction between the Chinese herbs, of how they prevent eye damages and influence neuron recovery of eyes. I did an oral presentation of the pre-data in the 2014 International Conference and Exhibition on Nutraceuticals and Functional Foods (Oct 14–17, Istanbul, Turkey) and had a poster presentation of the complete experimental results in the same conference on 2015 (Sep 20–23, Wuxi, China) and won the third prize of Graduated School Student Poster Competition. In addition, I got the College Student Research Scholarship.

In the summer of 2015, I went to Academia Sinica to join the Neuroscience Summer Internship. The research topic is about Alzheimer and neuron repair. From Optometry to Neuroscience, I love to find out the way to improve the medical diagnosis and diseases prevention. Two years lab experience enhances my abilities in lab organization and medical management and let me get the opportunity to represent my school to deliver a speech entitled “Credibility and Quality Control of medical laboratories” in Annual medical technology student forum. In order to learn interdisciplinary, I participate in wikipedia medical translation project, read the first hand paper and edit for wikipedia to share knowledge to the world. I was selected to be one of the Taiwan Wikipedia association broad member in march, 2016, to keep spreading wikipedia medical translation project and set new projects. This summer, I had an internship in pharmaceutical factory. I will keep challenging myself and learning interdisciplinary

在大學時我真的很多時間宅在實驗室，有在國內跟國外發表，同時也有玩社團跟參與志工活動，這段當時在寫時我是把履歷開著把經歷與發表那部分的內容複製貼上過來，再用語句連貫修飾。當時我覺得這個學程偏向學術取向，再加上我的背景偏學術，所以挑選了研究與發表等相關內容寫上自傳，有放兩張出國發表時的照片，現在回頭看會覺得照片可有可無。

Motivation and Purpose

I am a student clearly know what I want. The reason why I apply for Global Innovation Joint-degree Program is that it can provide the environment for interdisciplinary learning, especially in the fields I am interested in, such as neuroscience, molecular biology, and virology. I would like to spend my time on studying Neurological recovery and the research about hepatitis B virus in hope to help more people in the world. My major in university, which is medical technology, helps me developing experimental skills better and know what patients needs more clearly than other students. The research experiences and internships let me build up excellent research foundation and correct attitude.

這部分我強調自己是個清楚知道自己想要什麼的學生，還有申請這個學程的動機跟優勢，還有我對於我自己的期許，每個人的人格特質不同，對於想要申請的研究所的追求不同，請很有自信地寫這段。

Study Plan

In my plan, I will not only keep improving my English ability but also learn other foreign languages like Japanese and French. Next semester I am going to Hualien to have a half-year internship in hospital, I will try my best to get the Medical Technologist license in Taiwan and the international Medical laboratory Scientist license in next summer. If I have the honor to become a member of Global Innovation Joint-degree Program, I will use my summer time to get used to the school and lab environment, read related papers beforehand, and discuss research topic with professor if possible. I hope I can help people with what I have learned and researched in graduate school in the future.

學習計畫這塊我只寫出個概略的時間線跟規劃而已，為了充版面還特別做了張圖表，因為我當時根本不知道要選誰當指導教授，再加上是第一屆沒有前人的經驗作參考，所以寫得很攏統，如果可以再申請研究所先跟想要跟的教授打好關係，會比較好知道這塊要怎麼寫，可以請自己熟識的教授給予建議，學習計畫這塊對很多教授來說非常重要，如果資訊量許可請多寫些。
