Mcora Personal Statement

4. Chemistry can be useful in explaining the natural world, preparing people for career opportunities and producing informed citizens.

Out of all of the skin care products in the world, your bathroom cabinet needs to be filled with products researched and designed by me. When I entered high school, I discovered my passion for selecting lip sticks, lip glosses, lotions, perfumes, and makeup foundations. You name it. After learning about the connections between the information in my chemistry class and these items, a light bulb went off! I maintained an A average in chemistry throughout the whole year! Additionally, in 2014, I became a student in the Academy of Engineering and Technology, which also heightened my interests in chemistry. In a science fair at that academy, there was a chemistry course where we made colorful slime, and during that process, I learned that I get an adrenaline rush when I am mixing different chemicals together to see what the outcome is. Majoring in chemistry at Norfolk State University will definitely prepare me for a very successful future in chemistry! My ultimate goal is to conduct research and development for chemical cosmetics. I plan to obtain employment at the greatest companies in the world such as L'Oréal and Avon.

Thus, I will be honored of standing such a prestigious college, and having the privilege of becoming an outstanding Chemical Engineer. What inspires me to pursue a career on this field is how vast and innovative this major is. Honestly speaking, I am a very creative person. One of my many passions include drawing and painting, traditionally and digitally. Thus, the Chemical Engineer field combines two of my personal passions, Chemistry and art. Since, Chemistry also means combining, and studying the interaction between substances through different chemical reactions in order to obtain a different product or substance. From my artistic side, I perceive a laboratory as my canvas, and the different elements as my paint. By becoming a Chemical Engineer, I want to create new products than can potentially enhance people’s

I plan to major in chemical engineering at UNR. Possessing a thirst for discovering how the world functions through the lense of science, I am interning with Dr. Casey in the Chemistry Department to experience chemistry firsthand. Alongside the heavy workload, I will balance volunteering with Dean’s Future Scholars at UNR, I’ve dedicated 200+ hours to the group and look forward to helping out the lives of low-income, first generation kids like myself. I’ll advance from college into the real world examining life at the atomic level while giving back to the

My educational background at Carleton has prepared me with both the knowledge of chemistry as well as tangible skill in the laboratory. Beside general chemistry I have explored the fields of analytical, organic, and biochemistry. The laboratory

I am thinking of majoring in materials science and engineering at Cornell. I came to this conclusion because I enjoy working in the sciences. I picked engineering because I like the sciences and I would like to find a career where I can solve problems. I am thinking of working in materials science and engineering because I find it exciting. It encompasses the production of new crystals, ceramics, polymers, and metals. I would like to participate in such projects.

In order to fully engage students and make personal connections/ownership to the content, it is vital to connect a topic to the student’s life. Unit II is the smallest chemistry unit that provides the necessary background knowledge students need for

The Mississippi School for Mathematics and Science has been called the most diverse square mile in Mississippi. Before coming to MSMS I had never seen other children my age who were Asian, Indian, or any other race except for Caucasian and Mexican. I didn't have a chance to talk to other children about their cultures or beliefs until I came to MSMS. Being at MSMS gives me the opportunity to speak to one of the most diverse student bodies in Mississippi. I am able to listen to the different languages spoken by the children here such as Vietnamese, Korean, Hindi, and Spanish. I also get the chance to join cultural clubs established by the student body. Currently, I am a member of the Asian Student Association. The ASA meets monthly to discuss

Accelerated Chemistry I is a demanding course that involves critical thinking and problem solving. Throughout the course you will be asked to analyze data, draw conclusions, process new information, and build your own understanding of chemistry concepts. Only after you have investigated new ideas will you discuss them formally. The model we will be using in class is - engage, explore, explain, evaluate. You will be asked to analyze common occurrences such as melting ice cubes and burning candles in order to understand the chemical processes that allow them to occur. You will analyze the relationship between macroscopic properties and microscopic structures, which in turn will help you to gain a better understanding of the world around you,

I chose Chemical Engineering at Texas A&M for multiple reasons. One of the reason that I chose to do chemical engineering is that the sciences have always interested me. Thinking it over, I wanted to chose a college that would have to majors in the subject areas that interested me the most, and Texas A&M was one of my first choices. Another reason why I chose to do Chemical Engineering at Texas A&M is that the the ranking for the college’s engineering program is in the top 20 of the US Best colleges.

I am a thirty-four-year-old United States Army veteran from Norfolk, Virginia. I received a Bachelor of Arts degree in Sociology, and I minored in Urban Studies from Norfolk State University in 2004. I have over nine years of volunteer and paid experience with the Norfolk Public Library in Norfolk, Virginia. Currently, I am a Library Associate at the Blyden Branch Library in Norfolk, Virginia. As a Library Associate, I serve on the reference desk, and I answer basic reference questions. Also, I assist patrons by locating materials on the shelves and providing help with the use of equipment such as computers, the fax machine, and the scanner. I suggest reading materials for patrons of all ages. In addition, I check out and discharge books and DVDs, reserve material requests, register new patrons, coordinate interlibrary loans and collect fees. I prepare statistical reports, order supplies, process library holds, distribute library materials, and process lost and damaged materials. Additionally, I open mail and ensure that the office equipment is functioning properly. Previously, I worked for the Norfolk Public School system as a Substitute Teacher for middle and high school grade levels. I tutored disabled students during my internship at Norfolk State University. I have a passion for helping others which is my biggest strength.

For most of my childhood, I have been fascinated by the power that science has to transform humanity. Due to this belief, I developed a keen interest in the science of chemistry. In my opinion, chemistry is a puzzle that provides insight about our surroundings, similarly, by attending Tufts University I will gain different viewpoints which I will use to pursue my future endeavors. Consequently, the endless opportunities at Tufts University combined with my passion for new discoveries, commitment to fruitful endeavors and the determination required for success will produce a stimulating learning environment in which I feel I belong.

The idea of seeing a project come to life is what provokes my desire to become an engineer. In the past, engineers have created the greatest historic innovations such as health technology. My passion for chemical engineering is seeing how the fundamental theories of Chemistry, Physics and Math can be applied to create an innovative industry. In very concrete ways, engineers

Chemistry has been called the science of what things are. Its intent is the exploration of the nature of the materials that fabricate our physical environment, why they hold the different properties that depict them, how their atomic structure may be fathomed, and how they may be manipulated and changed.
