I am an undergraduate majoring in communication engineering. I plan to take postgraduate courses in civil engineering and material mechanics. The problem is that I have never taken this course. Can I come in? Hello! I am a senior majoring in civil engineering, and I was admitted to South China University of Technology for structural engineering this year. I hope I can give you some advice.

As far as I know, there are not many schools that try to take the material mechanics test for the first time, and most of them are structural mechanics. I hope you didn't get into Dalian University of Technology. ........

Material mechanics mainly studies individual components, while structural mechanics mainly studies the combination of components. So I guess that's why you chose to take the course of Material Mechanics ... If you want to learn Material Mechanics, you should first study Theoretical Mechanics, Theoretical Mechanics, Material Mechanics and Structural Mechanics in turn. Theoretical mechanics is slightly different from high school physics, so material mechanics is basically irrelevant. Generally speaking, mechanics of materials is not difficult, and it is possible to learn by heart.

However, I don't recommend that you take the civil engineering exam across majors! There are two reasons: first, you don't have enough time. Civil engineering is a hot major in engineering, and the competition between slightly better schools is terrible. Mathematics English major, almost one! Since July, it is not necessary to say whether you can catch up with others in mathematics. You have to learn theoretical mechanics, material mechanics, and do real problems ... it's basically unrealistic, and this science is similar!

Second; Your major has no advantage. As a postgraduate major, civil engineering has a large number of undergraduates. Even if you try for the first time, you will suffer a lot in the second interview. Don't think that the second interview is a formality. You don't know how to impress your tutor if he asks you any professional course knowledge.

So, it's not that you can't get in the exam, but that there is not enough time! I think interdisciplinary study should take at least 1 to 1 year and a half, not only in materials mechanics, but also in a lot of professional basic knowledge! If you really want to take an interdisciplinary exam, I suggest choosing an ordinary school that is not 985, 2 1 1. I don't mean to discourage you, so be careful!
