Chemical Engineering Progression

Chemistry is the science that studies all properties of matter. Chemistry is an immense subject that exists everywhere in the world, from chemical compounds in the human body to detergents used in daily basis, chemistry can be in anything we can think of. Reason why, ever since I was a junior in High School I dreamt with becoming a chemical engineer in the near future. Being a chemical engineer is not just about knowing chemistry, but also implementing the engineering principles to mass produce products, and share them with consumers. Correspondingly, a chemical engineer utilizes the principles of chemistry in order to solve problems that involve the production in large-scales of chemicals, food, fuel, makeup, and many other products manufactured by chemical engineers.

Growing up, I was fascinated in science, math, and cars. I thought to myself, what can I do in the future that has all three of these things together? Towards the end of high school, I noticed a major that would satisfy me is mechanical engineering. According to Michelle Singletary’s article “Not All College Majors Are Created Equal,” she suggests that students need to plan their steps going into college before investing in an education. I took the steps of researching what a mechanical engineer does and how much this career will benefit me in the long run. Becoming a mechanical engineer, I am able to design and develop machines, work with energy conversion, and work with a wide variety of automobiles and planes. Mechanical engineering is a

3. Why have you chosen your academic major(s) of Mechanical Engineering and Electrical Engineering? I chose Mechanical and Electrical Engineering, because designing, creating, and problem solving are things that I enjoy and engineering provides all of that.

Because of the people I chose to surround myself around, I found myself wanting to go into the field of engineering. My friends knew I had a passion for math and they suggested engineering as an occupation I should look into. As of result of that, I found myself getting into more hands-on projects in my last two years of high school, as well as taking an engineering focused course in high school to try it out. I fell in love with the career path and since then, I aspire to become an

Personal Statement: Interests, Experiences, and Goals in Nuclear Engineering Money and fame do not motivate my goals. Engineering in all forms is a field of innovation and invention. Aspirations of any great engineer should be to introduce to the world a new idea, product, or service that will make people happier and the environment safer. Success in these challenges is a reward greater than any dollar amount or public recognition. Engineers bring societies to new levels of civilization through their advancements in technology and discovery. The challenge to provide people with ever-increasing standards while at the same time feeding the population with ideas of what could be attracts my imagination, intelligence, and curiosity far more

The students are the direct recipients of this study that they should know their interest. Through this study, the students’ choosing a major is a choice that should be intentional and based on knowledge of one’s self. As a result of this study the number of students who shift a major must be reduce and lessen.

With such a large number of choices, the decision of a career major can appear overwhelming. Do you follow example of your parents? Do you take after the way your friends are taking? When you have a career major decision narrowed down, what do you think about that profession? Do

After taking AP Chemistry, I knew that I wanted to study chemistry in college. I also have been a very inquisitive person my whole life, wondering why things are and how things worked. My inquisitive nature and love of chemistry is why chemical engineering appeals to me. I am drawn to Biomedical engineering due to its application of both chemistry and biology to solve medical problems. Doing a complete 360, I am interested in art history, because not only do I find art fascinating, but I also find it mesmerizing how artists visually represent and were inspired by the world around them.

It was late into the evening when I returned to my high school’s football field to recollect the jacket I had left back. It had finally come, it was the night of my last marching band rehearsal. In that moment, I was alone, but as the neighboring building lights dimly poured into the field, I could imagine the arena glow with life as I thought of my four seasons of marching band. It was at this location, out of many, that provided me the opportunity to share unique memories with my peers and develop my greatest talent: playing the clarinet. I initially chose my instrument without understanding as an elementary school student what band was, but through my first set of rehearsals, I quickly realized that playing an instrument was harder than I had anticipated. That, however, did not discourage me. I grew fond of playing and was determined to practice daily technics that would strengthen my musicianship. As I played into middle school and high school, my lung capacity, along with the ability to keep tempo, improved, but I believed by then that my performances should exemplify more than my skills. Through my participation in marching band and Wind Ensemble, I’ve aspired to take not only the audience, but myself included, into a world beyond music’s notes and phrases. I find comfort to know that I can create something out of pure air and have others find happiness within it. This is what kept me playing for nine years. I have incorporated music deeply into my life, but I believe it does not define me. Instead, I have learned valuable lessons that have benefited me off the stage such on time management and discipline and have grown alongside my talent.

Staring at engine components of a car as well as holding a smartphone with almost unbelievable thickness fascinated me in many ways indirectly leaded me into getting to know more through different sources about machines ranging from transportation to communication devices. Two

the Academy offers majors in many branches of engineering, such as electrical and nuclear, that interest me. I wanted to become an engineer since I was younger because of the problem solving skills required to be successful. I enjoy finding problems and finding solutions to them, it is second nature to

ENGR 1000 – Introduction to Engineering Syllabus Semester Project: Design Your Process for Becoming a “World-Class” Engineering Student December 5, 2016 Angela Krebs A. Goal Setting 1. Graduating with a Bachelor of Science in Engineering, at this point in my life, is critical. It’s the goal I’ve set for myself and it’s the goal I’m going to achieve. Yes, my parents wanting me to study Engineering is a big part of why I chose the major, but it also has a lot to do with my interests. I’ve been in a specialized program since I entered the Performing and Visual Arts Magnet program (PVA) in sixth grade as a Vocal major. Many of my peers dropped out of the course, deeming it too rigorous, but I stuck with it because that was my goal. Then, when I started high school, I became a Theatre major and stuck through another four years of long days, many classes, and nighttime rehearsals all because it was merely what I expected of myself. Now that I’m in college and studying Engineering, nothing has changed. I am still just as dedicated to my studies as I have always been, but now I’m able to study something that has always intrigued me. Engineering piqued my interest and my love for math and science led me to the objective I’ve set for myself. I have my end goal and I will achieve a Bachelor of Science in Engineering.

Factors to be considered are salaries, what will I start off with? What degree do I need to earn what I actually want? What am I good at? For sure the decision is complicated. Throughout this essay, we have compiled the three most popular fields of study chosen by college students.

My true passion for engineering began when I came across the quote: "Technology are devices that make our lives better". Despite my first love of mathematics, my recent interest for engineering has come from two major influences. The first being my mathematics and physics teachers, both engineers by nature, who have helped me enhance the fundamental skills essential for engineering and embrace the importance of the field. The second being the learning about uses of technology in Computer Science, it taught me the magnitude of which technology contributes to our everyday lives has led me to intensify my desire to improve the lives of others.

My whole life I have always wanted to become a successful engineer, and graduate from the University of Cincinnati. Some of my goals in life are to go to the University of Cincinnati. Another one of my goals is to become some type of engineer. But as of right now I would like to be a aerospace engineer. To be honest I really don’t know what influenced me to want to become and engineer. But something about engineering always appealed to me for some reason. But lately my engineering teacher has had a positive impact on me and is really making me like engineering and the overall field. So I guess that Mr. Smith has influenced me into being an engineer. My plan b is to be an engineer too. But this type of engineering would just be easier to
