美国加州大学伯克利分校数学系情况介绍!
Berkeley以往给北大发好多offer，比如02级就发了5个，今年只发了3个，只有homotopy过去。其他offer在中国大陆的各个比较出名的学校之间差不多每个学校发1~2个，好像科大、浙大、吉大都有。从02级的感觉来看Berkeley比较看重排名(03级的牛校offer都没有代表性，因为除了众所周知的两个牛人几乎拿遍所有牛校，其他牛校offer数目太少无从参考)。Berkeley的好处在于方向全面，很多比较出名的人什么Hartshorne, Ribet,Hsiang Wu-yi之类的都在那里，而且加州气候比较宜人。坏处就是远离东部的学术中心(Harvard-Princeton-Columbia三角)。对TOEFL考试的时间要求比较严格，详情参见下文申请数据介绍。

加州大学伯克利分校数学系申请说明：
加州大学伯克利分校数学系(Department of Mathematics)研究生开设有MA和PhD项目，但请注意，MA项目主要针对的是伯克利在读的数学专业本科生，极少招收其它学校的学生。
PhD项目设有以下两个专业方向，分别是：
数学(Mathematics)
应用数学(Applied Mathematics)主要有以下4研究组
逻辑与科学方法论(Logic and the Methodology of Science)：与哲学系联合开设;
表征理论、几何与组合(Representation Theory, Geometry and Combinatorics)
几何、拓扑与算子代数(Geometry, Topology and Operator Algebras)
计算科学与工程(computational Science and Engineering)：新开项目
该系要求学生提供GRE数学科目考试成绩，其余要求与研究生部的一致，另外，该系还为研究生提供五年的奖学金。
申请TA奖学金TOEFL口语单项需达到26分;录取通知一般在2月底3月初公布。

学长经验谈
伯克利是有着矛盾的两面性：一方面是草根的，平民的，大众的。Berkeley Hippie成为了伯克利学生自黑的主要槽点，校园附近随处可见千奇百怪的各色人等，如某街头艺人;但是，另一方面是尖端的，精英的，前沿的，比如只有诺贝尔奖获得者才能用的停车位。
我在伯克利接触到的学生基本上可以分为两拨：一波是以科研为己任的有志青年(包括绝大多数的PhD和极少部分的本科生)，他们对本专业的热情与天赋让我毫不怀疑地相信这波人是会引领未来人类科技进步的行业精英;另一波则是和我一样的普普通通的平常学生，他们或由于机缘巧合，或家庭背景，或者自己个人的奋斗，得以相聚在伯克利的校园里。他们大多对专业热情平常，他们大多想找个好工作回馈父母家人，他们得益于伯克利这个平台的帮助也因此对这个平台感恩戴德，他们和平常人一样只不过多了顶绣着伯克利商标的帽子，他们中的大多数未来会湮没在茫茫人海中。
