A & M University Visit

When I told my brother, a current student at Cornell pursuing his PhD in operations research, he was completely taken aback by this idea and told me not to let it discourage me. However, I still lead me to assume that perhaps I should look into other college majors. It was not until I had a mentor of mine tell me that I was “too intelligent” not to pursue the concepts in which I thrive, mathematics and applied mathematics. Thus, I am interested in pursuing my engineering studies at Cornell University because I believe that I can be a “beautiful little fool” in the world of engineering. I also know that Cornell University has one of the best engineering programs that is offered in the world, and I crave such understanding. I want to be in an environment in which I can both learn, and augment my life and society through my learning. My hope is to study biomedical engineering and then be a pediatric neurologist. I know that this is a challenging and intensive aspiration of mine. However, I do not want to be static or still. I do not want the societal concept of a “beautiful little fool” to be one that dictates women as incapable of fulfilling their individual purposes. I want to be an engineer, and I want to challenge my society to follow me in pursuing their aspirations, solving one problem at a

At my previous university, I participated in many activities within Riverside. On top of this, I have made great friends that helped me to grow as a person. Riverside also provided me with exactly what I needed to achieve my previous goal of working within the business world. This drive to apply for Texas A&M is however not solely based on academics. Having grown up in the North Dallas area from 4th grade to 8th grade, I feel a strong attachment to Texas. It is the state where I grew the most and found myself to be the best person I could be. Paired with the program that Texas A&M offers, I hope to bring my newly found experiences to Texas A&M to contribute to what Aggieland is all

One thing that is unique about me that might not be apparent from my application is my undying will to tenaciously improve myself. In high school, I started playing football and I was literally the weakest and one of the worst players on my team. Instead of not believing in myself and quitting football, I tenaciously, toiled every day for three years until I improved my strengths and weaknesses as a player. Eventually those around me took notice of my massive improvement and I have since applied this unique aspect of myself into everything that I pursue. With the intent of becoming a Professional Engineer, I would like to transfer to Texas A&M University to pursue a Bachelor of Science in mechanical engineering. The purpose of my essay is to explain to you exactly why I want to transfer to Texas A&M and how joining Texas A&M would profit me.

I have driven hard towards the goal of education for 12 years, and now with graduation nearing, important decisions lie ahead. I wish to continue my pursuit of education in the field of engineering, more precisely, major in Civil Engineering. I have not yet chosen a school in which to attend, but I have given consideration to a variety of schools. After acquiring a bachelor’s degree, I intend to later gain my Professional Engineering

I am a good student, capable of reaching my objective at UF. Additionally, I believe that I possess traits necessary to help me prevail and complete the goal of becoming an Electrical Engineer. One of my best qualities, I feel, is the determination to complete the task; so far, whenever I have been tested, I have risen to the occasion. Last year I took a class that challenged me out of my comfort zone, yet it was the most rewarding. I know that UF will offer me the same endeavor to succeed in my aspirations. I am looking forward to joining the UF community and I hope to contribute to the Gator

As a second year student at the University of Texas, I have encountered many circumstances than I have both grown from. When you are first dropped into the large pond of a university, you are constantly warned to take your academics seriously, because a college course load is much more rigorous than high school. However, I feel that you are not warned of one important fact that I had to learn the hard way.

If I join the University of Denver family, I can continue to master the skills our future world need such developing mechatronic devices, which will increase production with less time and intensive methods. Then years from now, I see myself contributing to the field of engineering and also academics as a college professor. I intend to pass my passion forward in honor to Dr. Washington and all professors I will encounter at University of

As a current sophomore at the University of Arizona (U of A), enrolled in the Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) program, I seek to continue my education to the master’s level. I have high hopes of acceptance into the Accelerated Master’s Program. My educational objectives line up with the three, U of A – ECE program objectives:

“ ‘Change the conversation’ about engineering, ” as the dean’s message states, “we are helping dismantle stereotypes about engineers — what they do, who they are, what they look like.” I was deeply touched by these encouraging words when I first read it on the Viterbi School of Engineering website. As a woman in science and engineering who have been through many stereotypes towards women, my belief is consistent with dean’s message: “this must change.” I’m so happy and glad to have acceptance from a school that respects diversity and minority. I am writing this letter to express my sincere gratitude for the precious opportunity offered by USC School of Engineering. Thank you for offering me the admission

Next year, I will take astronomy, which will help me understand parts of space that I have never delved in to. I will learn more about nebulas, galaxies, and theories about space and time and how we have gotten to be here in the universe. I will also be taking the Higher Level Physics, which in IB is the hardest course my school has to offer. I was given the option to take Standard Level Physics, a class that most students choose to take, but since I plan on being an astronomer and aerospace engineer, I decided that I should challenge myself in ways no one else would. In the course, I will be taking collegiate concepts and interpreting them for two years, learning aspects of physics that will prepare me for my dream career. While these courses will help me with becoming an astronomer and aerospace engineer, becoming an intern with the NASA SEES Summer program would greatly benefit me because I have aspired to become involved with space most of my life, ranging from astrophysics to aerospace engineering. This program is a wonderful opportunity, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity at that, and I believe that since the internship provides hands-on experience with data, I would be better with interpreting data when I am an astronomer. The Internship will feed my hunger for knowledge in ways no class at my school could. Simply being in the presence of esteemed

I just wanted to email you to say thank you. This has been the first class I have taken at A&M where it really seems like the professor cares about our understanding and success in the course. You have been very accommodating to us students, and you obviously truly care about our success in the class and our futures.

My names are Shadrack Maritim. I am a Kenyan born but currently USA military member. I graduated from the University of Maryland Eastern Shore with BS in Biology Pre-Med in 2011. I have been an active duty army since then due reasons too much to be narrated in this forum. I am a family man as of now with two beautiful kids, boy and girl and a lovely wife. I am taking this class for the reason that it is a requirement towards my major and the fact that it is a very important skill to master towards my career. I have a tone of hobbies but, three are the most interesting to me; sports, travelling and most of them all, watching theoretical physics documentary. I glad to be a member of this class and looking forward to an educative session. Good

Deanna Smith, a current Physics undergraduate student at UAH, opened her talk with her favorite quote, "Reach for the moon, even if you fall, you'll land among the stars." Her talk focused on her journey as a physics student. Deanna Smith provided useful advice for all physics students, starting with "Enjoy the fact that you are a Physics student." Physics students have many unique opportunities available to them just because they are physics students. For example, because she was a Physics student, she was able to participate in the Space Hardware Club and Cube Sats and the Joint Space Weather Summer Camp. The Joint Space Weather Summer Camp allowed her to travel to Germany to work the on sensors that would detect changes in the sun's ionosphere.

First and foremost, I would like to sincerely thank you for selecting me as one of your 2015-2016 recipient of the Charles E. and Thomas E. Wilson Memorial Scholarship. It humbles me that an organization exterior to my daily life has recognized my continued academic and professional effort. At Dartmouth, I am a Junior pursuing my A.B. in the Engineering Sciences with a minor in government. I also intend to complete Thayer’s five-year B.E. program in either Mechanical or Electrical Engineering.

Staying in Wisconsin has been a wonderful two years, and I benefit from the academics here. As a computer engineer, I’m encouraged to take both computer science courses and electrical engineering courses, and the idea of being a person excel at both software and hardware intrigues me. This semester I am taking Verilog Design, Compilers, and Microprocessors as such, and it is such honor to take these as early during my sophomore year. Outside of the classroom, 24/7 office hours and lab hours and countless free drop in tutoring around the campus has not only helped me familiarize professors and industry used software/hardware but also learn course materials better. Education in Wisconsin has been caring and systematic and my studies has thrived with it.
