Becoming A Professional Engineer : Texas A & M And M. M

Everything happens for a reason. Everyday I am constantly learning things to improve myself in life. Whether it’s learning a new technique of making up my bed faster or planning my day ahead in a notebook, nothing compares to all the skills i acquired from joining the football team. Everybody knows football isn’t an easy sport, but you don’t know how hard it is until you actually put those pads on. Since football is a team sport, you can’t win a game by yourself. I learn how to put my trust in others in order to win. I couldn’t show weakness, I had to pick up myself while encouraging my teammates to win the battle. It wasn’t easy as we’re competing with others who might have worked as hard as us. Luckily, practice during the week prepared

For a lot of kids, it’s not until it’s all said and done, and they look back on it several years later, that they realize the difference the sport made in their lives. They are proud of playing the game. Have you ever met anybody who accomplished playing four years of high school football, and at the end of that run said, ‘Man, I wish I wouldn’t have played’? It doesn’t get said. Football players aren’t perfect. Nobody is. But millions of former players, one by one, can recount the life-altering principles they learned from football. They know the value of football is the values in football.That’s why high school football – and particularly high school coaches – play such a vital role in our society. Our football coaches are on the front lines of the battle for the hearts and minds of the boys in our society.

Hearing him say that to me made me want to drop my things and walk out of the room, I wanted to turn away from football and never look back. Instead I went with it, that whole practice I was mad and everyone could tell. Many times, that day players would come up and ask “hey man is everything okay?” The only thing I could even say back was “I’m fine,” but they all knew I was anything but fine.

It was that time of the year again, football season. Football is a sport in which I am very passionate about, I never knew I could or would be so passionate towards something, until one very specific game. It was a Saturday afternoon, the breeze was just right, the temperature was just right; not to cold and not too hot. Being the first game of the season I didn’t know if I was going to play or not. However, I was proven wrong Coach Smith hollered “Shawn!” I stood up startled at first and right then and there I knew that was my moment to shine and shine is what I did.

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

Florida Agricultural and Mechanical University is an excellent place to create a better future for myself and for my community. At this University I can make others around me strive to be the best they can be by bring my unique passion and communication skills to campus. When I was a child I was very shy and quiet and now I have realized how much I have grown. After being in high school working on group assignments and joining extracurricular activities, I have built a great relationship with the students in my high school. In particular, the French Club that I joined during high school really helped me comfortably connect with my peers. If I am given the opportunity to attend Florida A&M University, I will help the campus community

I was an incoming freshman, two weeks prior to my first day of high school, and I was terrified. I knew that I loved the sport of football, however I had heard stories from my brother about how tough Stepinac’s freshman football coach was. Everything that I was told was true. One of the coaches great lessons that he taught me was that a hardworking disciplined team is typically more successful than a team that has all of the talent in the world, but is not disciplined and does not work hard. That summer was the hardest that I had ever worked up to that point to start in a football game. The hard work never paid off, and I left at the end of that season defeated. I wasn’t good enough, I wasn’t fast enough, and I wasn’t strong enough. I had only played in two of the games, one, for a snap when

“No! I’m going to try out to-,” Lionel tried to say, but the coach interrupted him. The coach was a man in his 30s, with dark blue eyes and brown hair. He had been working with Mystic Genie High School’s football team for 7 years, and with him, the win every

Whether it be in Political Science, Law Studies, Sport Management, or perhaps a study I haven’t yet considered. I will contribute to the student population of optimists and go-getters, and refrain from staying idle while life passes by. It is imperative to take action on set goals to avoid being left behind with the masses. As a Gator, there is a self-expectation to have a sharp motivation; to be inclined to apply oneself to any task with a sharp focus. I plan to impact this campus with the drive to change my life and improve those’ around me. If admitted to the University of

1-I want to go to South Dakota School of Mining and Technology because you have an amazing electrical engineering program. There are a lot of fields in electrical engineering I am interested in that you offer. Knowing you have all these fields makes this a huge opportunity for me, knowing that I can opportunities in multiple fields. Everything about the campus and the Engineering program in general I like and that's why I want to go to your school. Why I am so interested in Electrical Engineering is because of our supermileage team. I was asked by the teacher to work on the electrical car and I worked on it with a few classmates and built the car from scratch. While working on the car I helped put everything in it including the engine and battery which was the two I mainly helped with on the car. I really liked the experience about learning how to get everything in the car to work together. I also put together all four of the car proposals, which allowed us to compete in Detroit and in Brainerd. What was on the proposals were measurements of the cars, what all was in the cars

“How am I supposed to count on a guy who can’t finish sprints? Who can’t give the effort to be great?” our new seventh grade football coach screamed into my facemask, spitting in anger. This was my wake up call. To this very day I have the same coach, and I still have flashbacks to that moment when he challenged me like I had never before been challenged. This 30 seconds would change who I am forever.

“ ‘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

Since I was a little boy I loved the sport football. When I first got to the high school, I heard Coach Johnson was a strict coach that would threaten to kick you off the team for the slightest thing. Only caring for the players he thought was good enough. From the people I asked all I heard was negative comments about the coach. The oncoming season was coming and I was soon to find out. When I was younger I was childish I took everything as a joke, laughing and playing and took nothing serious. I changed my childish ways to become a mature man that I am today. Coach Johnson saved my life because who knows what I been doing if I hadn’t.

As a child I grew up playing football, and I’ve always had a passion for the game. After playing my final down, I knew that my days with the sport were not over. Football is a sport that molds boys into men. My dream is to become a football coach. My coaches had a very strong impact on my life and helped me evolve into the person I am today. By becoming a football coach I will have the ability to make an impact on my player’s life like my coaches did with mine. My biggest inspiration in becoming a football coach is Lou Holtz. Coach Holtz showed me that just because I am finished playing doesn’t mean that I can’t have a passion for the game. The way he carried himself and the passion he emitted helped me decide that this was something I

Something that makes me unique compared to other applicants applying to the University of California is my personal experience with engineering and dedication to improving the world. Being a High School Aerospace Scholar, I got to spend a week in NASA indulging myself in the STEM experience and learning about why and how engineering is necessary. Along with the hands-on experience in building rovers, rockets, and capsules, we got to know the history of engineering and how it has contributed to today's age. The most surprising however was that no matter how outdated a piece of technology becomes, it will continue to pave the way for future innovation. Just like engineers from the past, I want to leave my mark and be known for what I have achieved,
