Why I Want To Become An Engineer

Ever since elementary school, I have been a big fan of engineering. My inspiration came from the likes of Graham Bell and Albert Einstein with the invention of the telephone and the mass-energy equivalence equation, respectively. With the aim to join them in the wall of fame, I participated actively in my science and math classes, and clubs related to the field. As I grew older and had the fortunate chance of working at various retail stores, I began to develop an interest in business and how it worked. It was only a matter of time before this interest was strengthened and I began contemplating whether to major in engineering or business. This unfortunately left me indecisive in my choice of major for a while in college. But after a visit to a Texas A and M prospective student center, I was informed about the Industrial Distribution program and at that moment, I was certain of what I wanted to study.

The U.S. Bureau of Labor and Statistics states “Electronics engineers design and develop electronic equipment, such as broadcast and communications systems.” Before I realized that I wanted to become an electronics engineer, I had a lot of careers in my mind. One of these careers is joining the U.S. Air Force. I wanted to join the military because I can get many benefits from it. I do not have worry about my tuition and other school expenses. Until the time I took an electronics class during my senior year in high school, when I started to apprehend that being an engineer was my call to adventure. In the class, I learned many things such as the names of the small components being used on electronics and how they work. I also learned how to solder the small components and repair some basic electronics. The class even made me want to pursue more on becoming an electronics engineer. I enjoyed the class a lot, and helped me realized what I wanted to become in the

My goals in high school mostly include keeping a steady, high GPA that is a pretty high three, I hope to make new/more friends and to keep not having a missing assignment every school year. Once I graduate high school I plan on going to a good college though i'm not quite sure where yet. I dream of going into the medical field once I finish college, maybe a veterinarian or one of the many other kinds of doctors for both people and animals. I'm not sure yet about fulfilling a military or army based future, but it does fall under consideration. I have also though about not fighting in the military or army, but doctoring the men and women that do fight. Even though my career decisions are still undecided, I am positive that I will do the

The purpose of this activity is to let go of the grips food has on your decisions and allow yourself to move freely through life with a sense of purpose (let go of the timeline and any minute details) let your imagination run wild and create intentions that you would like to move

“Well you look like an engineer, do it!” Needless to say, I was enthusiastic, I finally found my motivation to go to college and get an engineering degree. In high school I was bullied by my peers and Star Wars was always my go to movie to make me not only feel better, but it gave me hope. I wanted to be an engineer for as long as I can remember because of Star Wars, and seeing the plethora of star-ships in the films.

Engineering is really what I want to do as my career. I always loved building rockets, magnets, and taking things apart. The greatest thing about engineering is that it breaks off into so many categories to choose from. Things like

Being in the Engineering Honors program has a lot to offer

With technology being such an important thing in today's society, engineering is also a career which is in demand, especially electrical engineering. "Engineering is the application of science and mathematics by which the properties of matter and the sources of energy in nature are made useful to people; the design and manufacture of complex products." Even though there are about two-hundred(200) different types of engineers, I think this is a good and brief definition of it.

One of the best ways to follow a successful path is to set goals for yourself. They are important to keep yourself on task and to get to a desired point of self fulfillment. The issue can be how to achieve goals in a successful manner. The issue is "Although people may desire or intend to attain some outcome, they are not committed to that as a goal until they are willing to invest affect, cognition, and behavior in attaining it" (Traci Mann, 2013). This is why it is important to have a set path on how to accomplish important goals. I have chosen three goals that I want to accomplish to demonstrate a Process known as SMART, to help accomplish them. There goals are that I want to finally earn a college degree(personal), I want to make it

All my life, I have had a passion for math and science. Nothing is more satisfying than working through a complex problem, step-by-step, to come to a solution. Over the years, this passion for math and science, along with interest in space and technology has led to me striving for a degree in aerospace engineering. My career goal is to design spacecraft that will take man across our solar system and beyond. I want to work with brilliant minds to take humanity to places only described in science-fiction novels.

As a child and even as a teenager one tends to make dreams and set goals for life. On occasion these goals are far stretched and sometimes even fairy-tale like, we tend to see life through a rose-colored glass, not taking into account the many sidetracks life throws our way. At that stage in life our goals tend to be less focused and somewhat unreachable. However, the process of growing up, or maturing, tends organized and center our goals, we learn to make compromises and set goals for our goals. There are different types of goals, short term and long term. I have learned to separate the many goals I have into three main categories: family, professional and personal.

Engineering is an exciting field that I believe will be enjoyable, challenging, and above all, intuiting to undertake at university. I believe pursuing engineering means exceeding your expectations and making a

Everyone should have personal goals that evolve around anything that needs to be accomplished. I set goals on a daily basis. One goal that I seem to have not truly focused on has been my college education. Considering all things, I decided I needed to focus on my college education. The first thing I needed to accomplish was to enroll in an institution for higher learning. Now that my enrollment is complete, I am an official student at the University enrolled in the undergraduate program for business management. As a student at the university, I now have to set personal goals so that I will be successful in my endeavors. My personal goals are to gain personal growth and development and graduate from my undergraduate program in business

I have literally known what I want to be since I was a toddler. Of course, as a three-year old putting together Legos, I could not have verbalized that I want to be a mechanical engineer. However, it was at that time that I began to develop and use the skills that I will need for my desired career. I began to consider how parts went together and the different components necessary to build and sustain various systems. Part of the inspiration was the simple fun that I had while putting together these small toys, but part of my inspiration was my father. He was a maintenance turn-around coordinator at an oil refinery, which led to my own desire to work as a mechanical engineer in a refinery one day. As I grew older, my interest in mechanical engineering remained constant, though I expanded my interest beyond the oil refineries. In fact, after attending a pre-college program, Jackling Introduction to Engineering, offered by Missouri Science and Technology in Rolla, Missouri in the summer of 2011, I realized that engineering was the perfect way to exercise my curiosity and inventiveness in a constructive and productive manner.
