牛津 工程 PS 赏析 2026

牛津大学工程科学学院、杜伦大学通用工程学院、伦敦帝国理工学院机械工程学院、华威大学通用工程学院和布里斯托尔机械工程学院

你为什么想学习这个课程或学科？

对过山车的迷恋激发了我对工程的好奇心。现代过山车的精确设计，作为工程的缩影，让我对该主题的多样方面产生了兴趣。深入了解过山车开发从线材模型到力矢量设计软件的演变，促使我在行业标准模拟器中创建自己的游乐设施，以便研究能量传递、力和安全性。我的理念旨在安全刺激骑手，需要加重力加速度来测试加速，因此我咨询了一家开创性制造商的专家，以了解行业标准和最佳支撑方法。在阅读了创新设计师约翰·沃德利的自传后，我受到启发，开始用独特的方法优化物理之外的多个方面，比如非骑手的吸引力，这让我在国际比赛中屡获成功。这些项目帮助我理解了许多考虑因素，比如占地面积、规划限制和容量，同时也加深了我对细节的关注。

我对发射技术的研究强调了布莱克浦ICON使用的线性同步电机维护低廉。在与西北电力公司的工程师讨论中，我了解到了游乐设施的电力需求，以及其对电力配电系统中谐波和闪烁影响的评估方式。我在获奖文章中综合了改进LSM技术的方案，文章聚焦于过山车行业潜在创新。

在奥尔顿塔工作期间，我参与了每日的过山车检查，这对于降低风险和保持可用性至关重要。这种对安全的考虑让我对工程伦理产生了兴趣。在BAE系统获得银质认证的工业学员工程试镜周期间，我进行了详细的飞机设计项目，基于我们观察台风战斗机建造及其装备的经验进行计算。这些飞机曾是全球冲突的一部分——工程师是否应为其使用负责？我考虑了故意致命武器和无害机器导致意外死亡是否同样不道德，然后才将注意力转向抬头显示器的安全技术。体验到先进的增强现实HUD激发我上网研究，得出结论：如果正确应用，其直观性优势很可能超过分散飞行注意力等风险。我很享受有机会在开发和完善新概念的过程中，学习基础理论和新技术。

你的资质和学习如何帮助你准备这门课程或科目？

我参加暑期学校让我确信自己有兴趣和智慧去学习工程。设计、构建并在UNIQ上测试自己的光束是我的亮点;我对结构选择如何影响失效模式感兴趣，并学习了点焊和原型制作等技能。此外，牛津使用SOLIDWORKS是建立在我之前的3D建模基础上的。在达勒姆大学萨顿信托课程中，我完成了一份关于风电场提案的报告。基于实验室实验，我考虑了叶片坚固性、攻角和涡轮机位置等多方面分析——我特别热衷于探索替代的垂直轴涡轮机以克服城市挑战。

我参加了STEP课程，解决复杂的数学问题以增强韧性，随后参加了英国数学奥林匹克，在UKMT获得金牌，在物理AS挑战中获得银牌。

你在教育之外还做了哪些准备工作？这些经历为什么有用？

我摄影和合唱团的爱好展现了我适合工程的创造力——我希望在大学继续作为合唱奖学金获得者从事音乐。我是一个能干的团队领导和成员：除了担任学生会长外，我还带领我的Young Enterprise团队在地区决赛中取得成功，我们的产品赢得了可持续发展和市场营销奖项。我总是乐于接受挑战，满怀期待地开启我工程职业生涯的下一章！

专家反馈

• 第一段整体很棒，虽然有些重复和长句可以删减。一本书能提前被提及，能吸引读者的注意力，真是太好了。关于ICON的段落显示了兴趣，但可以扩展说明为什么这会让申请人感兴趣。
• 关于奥尔顿塔楼的部分内容很有力，申请者解释了他们为何喜欢在那里工作时完成的任务。暑期学校部分包含一些名单，可以在这里进一步扩展。
• 最后一句是个人陈述结尾的好方法，它展现了对大学的热情和动力。

Ai反馈这份个人陈述有效传达了对工程的真诚热情，通过过山车设计和工程项目中的伦理考量等详细实例得以体现。为了进一步完善2026年UCAS格式的陈述，申请人可以将部分较长的句子拆分以提升可读性，并发展线性同步电机（ICON）部分，以明确反映个人动机和洞察力。此外，通过更多描述性的反思而非清单来扩展暑期学校经历，将加强备考部分。结尾段落极佳地展现了领导力、创造力和热情，强化了全面的申请者形象。总体而言，这份声明很好地平衡了技术知识与个人叙述，并符合新UCAS个人陈述的最佳实践。英文版本

Why do you want to study this course or subject?

A fascination with roller coasters launched my curiosity for engineering. The precise design of modern roller coasters, as an engineering microcosm, has interested me in the diverse facets of the subject. Delving into the evolution of coaster development from wire models to force vector design software prompted me to create my own rides in an industry standard simulator, allowing me to examine energy transfer, forces and safety. My concepts seek to safely thrill riders, necessitating G-loading to test accelerations and leading me to consult an expert from a pioneering manufacturer to understand industry standards and optimal supporting methods. After reading innovative designer John Wardley’s autobiography, I was inspired to use unique ways to optimize multiple aspects beyond the physics such as non-riders appeal, earning me repeated success in international competitions. Such projects helped me understand many considerations, for example footprint, planning limitations and capacity, whilst furthering my eye for detail.

My research of launch technologies highlighted the low maintenance of Linear Synchronous Motors used on Blackpool’s ICON. In discussion with Electricity North West engineers I learned of the ride’s power demands and how its harmonic and flicker impact on the electrical distribution system was assessed. I synthesized my ideas for options to improve LSM technologies in my prize-winning essay on potential innovation for the roller coaster industry.

During time working at Alton Towers, I took part in the daily roller coaster checks, essential for mitigating risks and maintaining availability. This consideration of safety made me curious to research the ethics of engineering. On BAE Systems’ Industrial Cadets silver accredited Engineering Taster Week, I undertook a detailed aircraft design project involving calculations based on our experience seeing the construction of Typhoon fighters and learning about their equipment. These aircraft have been part of global conflict – are engineers accountable for their use? I considered whether intentionally lethal weapons and benign machines causing death by accident are equally immoral, before focusing on the safety technology of Heads-Up Displays. Experiencing a cutting-edge augmented reality HUD inspired me to research online, concluding that when implemented correctly benefits such as its intuitive nature likely outweigh risks such as distraction from flight. I relished the chance to study underlying theory and new technologies alongside the process of developing and refining new concepts.

How have your qualifications and studies helped you to prepare for this course or subject?

My participation in summer schools have assured me I have the interest and intellect required to study engineering. Designing, constructing then testing my own beam on UNIQ was a highlight; I was interested how structural choices affected the modes of failure and learned skills like spot-welding and prototype construction. Also, use of SOLIDWORKS at Oxford built on my prior 3D modelling. On the Sutton Trust course at Durham University I completed a report on a proposal for a windfarm. Based on laboratory experiments I considered multi-faceted analysis such as blade solidity, angle of attack and turbine location – I was particularly enthused by exploring alternative vertical axis turbines to overcome urban challenges.

I have taken part in STEP sessions tackling complex maths problems to boost my resilience, going on to participate in the British Maths Olympiad, receive gold in the UKMT and Silver in the Physics AS challenge.

What else have you done to prepare outside of education, and why are these experiences useful?

My hobbies of photography and singing with choirs demonstrate my creativity suited to engineering – I hope to continue with music at university as a choral scholar. I am an able team leader and member: besides being Head Boy, I led my Young Enterprise team to success in regional finals where our product won the sustainability and marketing prizes. Always being up for a challenge, I eagerly anticipate starting the next chapter of my engineering career!
