[db:Intro]... 申请出国留学，前期的申请工作中，需要准备充足的申请材料，其中动机信是申请的关键材料，为大家分享了留学动机信的英文模板，大家可以参考一下。
一、留学动机信范文
I am a junior student coming from Arts & Metiers ParisTech in France which is a mechanical engineering school and whose main task is cultivating general engineer. I have a good command of professional knowledge， and I am also capable in practice through study and experiment. However， I still long for a further study and improving professional skills， so I look forward to majoring in design of rotating machine at cranfield university in UK.
There are four reasons why I long for an further study in cranfield university. Firstly， I ache with desire to experience and have education of a comprehensive university which has professional studies in different majors rather than a general engineering school. Secondly， I need to improve my English urgently. It is of great help in job hunting mastering English， French and my mother tongue Chinese. Lastly， I realize that I have great interest in machinery， and generally speaking I have a good report at some courses in my first school year， such as stress analysis， bearing design and gear design， so the knowledge I have mastered laies a solid foundation for me to further study design of rotating machine.
I am confident I will have a good performance if your esteemed school would like to give me the entrance chance. On the one hand， my social experiences help me a lot. I have a good adaptive ability and I can merge into new environment quickly.
For example， I had no idea about French as a foreigner at the very beginning， and I had never been in touch with French when I graduated from senior high school. After that I started to study french， and I entered Arts & Metiers ParisTech after three years of study. My work experiences make me deal with interpersonal relationship very well. I worked in a Chinese restaurant in the past， and I alsoworked as a trainee at Photonics Bretagne.
On the other hand， I perform well at school. I have a good understanding in theory and I can understand the formula analysis thoroughly， moreover I like to share my opinions with members in group work， so I am competent for group work with students coming from different countries at Cranfield University. And I want to be a mechanical design engineer in motor corporation in the future， and majoring in design of rotating machine at cranfield university is of great help for the position.
In conclusion， I have strong desire to further study at your esteemed univeristy. I really hope I will have the opportunity to improve my professional skills as well as overall quality， and it is a great honour for me to study and practice at the honorable school.
二、留学动机信写作内容
1、简介：介绍自己的学术情况，本科专业背景及成果，如果工作了要写清工作情况，选择学校和专业的原因。
开头应该以Estimado seor / seora 开头，对录取官做基本问候。同时开展自我背景介绍。
2、选择该专业的原因：为什么会选择该校该专业，这是比较重要的一部分。如果你的动机信写的都不能打动自己，还怎么奢望打动录取官？
另外，写写在专业研究上有什么发现和成果；如果是跨专业申请，可以写对所跨专业感兴趣的原因，并表示自己已经在学习和收集相关领域的知识，表明自己有足够的学术能力来独立完成研究。
3、语言水平及工作经验：现在在西班牙读硕士，语言等级要求相对较高。如果同学已经拥有DELE等级证书或SIELE考试成绩，需要在动机信里向录取官呈现出来，这样能够保证录取官对你语言水平的认可程度。在西班牙留学，良好的西语水平是非常重要的！切记！
如果是已经工作的同学，可以着重写工作内容、经历等，表现优秀的话，会很加分。
4、未来发展：在西班牙读研能够为自己带来什么？这些也需要在动机信里展露出来，对未来的期许和毕业后的发展方向，让录取官知道你对自己有一个详细的规划，是认真对待来西班牙读研这件事的。
说了这么多，总的来说，动机信就是一封纸上的推荐自己、展示自己的渠道。
最后，要向录取官表示谢意，感谢他阅读你的动机信，并表示自己非常期待得到他的回复。
三、留学动机信写作误区
文体冗赘
由于留学动机信的篇幅本身就不是很大，通常为一到两页，因此我们需要重视自己写作和表达方式的简洁性，不让动机信过分烦琐与冗赘。
内容空洞
有一些申请者在motivation letter中描写自己的成就或能力的时候，仅使用空洞的词语，而没有提出任何实际例子。所以提供事实来支持自己的观点是第一要务，可是值得一提的是，并非只正式的研究活动或比赛才被认为项目， 课程上的比较大作业也可以作为研究项目，也可以在动机信上装点门面。
OTIVATION LETTER格式及语法问题
语法问题是一个我们常常提到的话题，而且这是国外学校的老师特别讲究的一点。在写作申请学校动机信时，学生一定要关注语法方面。进行认真的写作后，自己再审校几遍，如果觉得没必要，那也可以请你的同学或朋友帮你一个忙， 改正文书的语法错误。此外， motivation letter格式也是大家经常忽略的一个问题。即便学校没有对动机信格式的具体要求， 你也要遵循基本写作原则。
日本留学动机信怎么写 留学动机信范文分享
有些国家留学材料中有一项是动机信，那么大家都知道该怎么写吗？别担心，我为大家整理了出国留学动机信书写指南，希望可以给你帮助。
首先来看看书写内容。
1.个人基本情况：
与个人简历不同，这里的个人基本情况是要着重表述个人的学习和工作期间的主要业绩。
2.申请原因：
明确阐述申请某某学校以及某某专业的理由，要告诉校方这个学校为什么吸引你，学习这个专业对你有什么帮助。
3.未来职业构想：
具体说明在毕业之后，你准备从事的工作。切忌使用贡献、奉献、报效之类空洞的词汇，而应该表明去什么企业、公司，在什么职位上负责什么工作，并且最好把预期的年薪也写出来。也许很多学生会说：以后的事情现在怎么能知道？其实，学校就是想了解你是否有明确的求学目的，并允许学生有根据、符合逻辑的设想。
另外，在申请高等商学院的时候，学校还会特意让学生谈谈自己的优缺点和性格特征。
接着来看看 写作原则。
1.专业原则
你在你的PS和RL里首先要写大量的专业性的东西，并且在写RL的时候尤其要以指导老师的口吻写很多你做实验的细节性的东西，并且说你如何解决了一些决定性的问题。因为谁都可以说自己做了什么什么很难的东西，可是如何让对方信服，就看这些细节性的东西了。就象去骗签证官，如果你无法说出一两个专业名词的话，即使有大学毕业证书证明你是哪所学校什么专业毕业的，也不能让签证官相信你确实是去美国上学，而不是去打工或移民什么的。因为任何文件都可以造假，而你的思想是造不了假的。你要尽量把你的思想给反映出来。道理是一样的。
2.个性原则
我相信申请出国的大多数人都不是牛人。当你不是牛人，无法向对方吹嘘自己是多么的聪明的时候，你就必须向对方展现自己的个人魅力。当你坐在计算机前开始写作的时候，你一定要想清楚自己是什么样的人，自己有什么优点。
3.优势突出原则和实话原则
这两个原则本来都不想写，因为觉得谁都应该知道的，可是考虑到可能还是有人没能明白这个原则，所以还是得写。有一个朋友就是这样的。他的第一篇PS给我看了，他谈到了他父亲的死对他的影响，谈到了要为中国的富强做出贡献（看的我好感动），可是他对自己人生的闪光点却只字未提。我对他说要重写，而且第一篇一个字也不能保留。他的PS应该是这样的：他于某某年以全年级第一名的成绩被保送到北京大学化学系（并且此时要注明全年级有多少人），并且北京大学是全中国排名第一的大学。又因为在北京大学学习优秀，在多少多少人中脱颖而出，在某某年获得年级或系里的奖学金。并且又于某某年因为在多少人中排名多少名，被著名的北京大学保送到著名的中国科学院读研究生，等等。
4.自信原则
西方人喜欢自我表现，他们喜欢自信的人。不管你是写PS，还是去见签证官，或是以后在课堂上做presentation，你都要牢记这个原则。所以自信原则是贯穿于你的PS始终的。你要象展示你的传家宝一样自信的向他们展示你闪光点，也要以expert的语气大谈你做过的课题。所有你的这些语气，都会为你赢得不少分数的。
5.清楚原则
所谓的清楚原则，就是你的PS中没有任何有疑问的地方。就象写专业论文一样，如果有缩写，在出现的第一次，你一定要写出它的全称，打个括号写上缩写（当然是除了众所周知的，譬如GRE，TOEFL之类的）。如果你拿过奖学金，一定要象我在优势突出原则中写的那样，要注明是在多少人的竞争中拿到的。并且，你上的大学排名多少也一定要注明。因为外国人是不可能非常清楚地了解中国大学的情况的，所以你一定要给别人留下清楚的感觉。这样，你的才华才不会被埋没。
6.简洁原则
这个原则来源于我看到的OF156表上，申请学生签证时必须填的学习计划。以后大家会看到，这一项中给的空格特别小，估计也只够写下30-40字的，而学习计划则是多么庞大的一个课题啊！
最后给大家带来一篇英语范文。
Dear Sir or_ Madam,
I appreciate that you can take time off your busy schedule to read my letter. This is a letter of my motivation to apply for the Master degree of Precision Manufacturing (MPM) at The University of Applied Sciences and Arts of Southern Switzerland (SUPSI).
First, allow me to introduce myself. My name is XXX. I’m a first grade postgraduate of Guangdong University of Technology (GDUT). My major is Mechanical Engineering and Automation. I get my bachelor degree in Mechanical Engineering and Automation at Wuhan University of Technology on 7th July 2011. After I graduated from my university, I worked in Jiangling Automobile Joint-stock Company for about 1 year. Then I took the Postgraduate Entrance Examination and was enrolled at GDUT at last.
There are some hearty reasons why I like SUPSI and the major of MPM.
Firstly, I am interested in MPM, for I have been studying in Mechanical Engineering and Automation since I started my university life. It’s well known that this major plays a foundational role of the developing of industry and it is easy for us to find a job. MPM, in my opinion, is a similar major with Mechanical Engineering and Automation. Exactly speaking, it’s the specialization and concretion of Mechanical Engineering and Automation. MPM in SUPSI based on a set of prominent and well balanced lectures that not only promote individual professional skills and cultivate their ability but also their creativity, management level and shape attitude. I think I can get more professional knowledge than I can get in land and extend my knowledge fields to enhance my competitive strength.
Secondly, SUPSI can offer me good teaching quality. SUPSI is one of the eight universities of Applied Sciences in Switzerland. The university focuses on education based on professional need and on applied research, and at the same time, it provides a practice-oriented education and offers a wide range of master’s programs. The educational goad of MPM at SUPSI is to shape new professional figures characterized by research and operate skills through an effective training path constantly merging research and education. For my part, I prefer practice-oriented education to pure research-oriented.
Thirdly, SUPSI can afford me a good environment to study. According to Global Competitiveness Report 2009-2010, Switzerland ranked number one among a total of 131 surveyed countries. It’s a reflection of a world-class capacity for innovation, combined with a highly sophisticated business culture. The country has a well-developed infrastructure for scientific research, with close collaboration between the leading research centers and industries. What’s more, the top-notch infrastructure, well-built education and health care systems as well as clean and beautiful environment all provide a safe, convenient, comfortable and healthy living environment for me to live and study.
Additionally, SUPSI gives a preferential tuition fee. The institution cooperates with our university. Due to cooperation between the Chinese and Swiss governments on this project, the fees are low. I think choosing to study at SUPSI can lower the financial pressure to my family. Furthermore, after graduating from SUPSI, I will become more competitive and enjoy a more positive prospect in future job market.
Finally, thank you for your reading again. I am seriously interested in studying at your university.
Looking forward to hearing from you and with best regards to you.
Yours faithfully,
XXX

上述诸点作为参考，还有其他认为有必要填写的内容，可以添加进去。要注意文字的简练和观点的清晰，不要给人一种在凑字数的感觉。尽量把理由书的一页纸写满，但是不要写得太多出格，这样会给人一种冗长的感觉。
动机信要写成一篇文章，必须把上述诸点联贯成文，并且段落清晰，一目了然。可以把整个理由书分为五段写，各段以“有关……（如‘有关留学目的’）。”开头，这样可以使文章清晰明了。
