My Personal Statement : Bijay Shrestha

Biology explains what occurs within all living things. Chemistry explains the reactions between different substances at the molecular level. Physics, however, explains how and why everything occurs in the universe. Through the use of mathematics, physics explains why things must go down and why it is impossible to reach the speed of light. Physics simply mirrors my personality as I am an individual who enjoys an explanation for everything.

I keenly look forward to the rigors of your program, and eagerly await the challenge. I would like to thank you for considering my application and I look forward to hearing from

Physics is involved in all of our daily activities. Most of the time, however, physics is overlooked and never acknowledged. It is important to understand different aspects of physics because physics tells us how and why certain events occur. By definition, physics is the search for laws that describe the most fundamental aspects of nature: matter, energy, force, motion, heat, light, and other phenomena. There are many different sectors of physics, but we will be focusing primarily on mechanical physics. Each step of the field goal kicking process involves physics, which we will explain.

In college, I was proficient in science courses especially when it came to analyzing data and coming to a conclusion. Therefore, my desire was to become a research scientist. While in school, I worked as the head veterinary technician at an animal hospital. During this time, I formed a respectable and valuable relationship with the doctor. Working for him was like getting paid for learning. He took every opportunity to explain and teach the details of a disease or diagnosis. I learned something new every day and I loved it. While treating the animals at the hospital was the main priority, forming relationships with the clients was also of vital importance. A favored responsibility of mine was client education. This gave me a chance to have direct human interaction by teaching clients how to care for their sick pet at home. Demonstrations included diabetes

Throughout my Senior Capstone project, I have learned many things about myself and the people that I worked with to make my project a success. Working with the elderly residents at the assisted living facility opened my eyes and I viewed things with a different perspective. Going into the project, I did not know what to expect with the residents, but towards the end, the residents knew me so well and had inspired. My favorite part about this project was the opportunity to interact with new people and know what they live their daily lives like. Being able to be around them gave me the chance to talk and listen to stories about their lives. They were also welcoming to any stories that I could relate to and always listened intently to my stories.

I learned the value of hard work, communication, and doing something that I was passionate about. By working on a project I was passionate about, I was able to not only sustain my passion throughout the year but to also let it grow even more. Knowing that all my hard work would be benefitting animals definitely made everything easier, whether it was researching animal welfare and animal homelessness, volunteering at and working directly with animal shelters, creating bows, or advertising Bows for Paws. Not only did I feel good about myself and my project, I felt good about all the animals that would get adequate and be given a second chance at happiness. In the future, I will definitely use the skills I learned from this project. However, I believe that I could have done more to improve, such as managing my time more wisely and expanding my network. Therefore, the next time I have a longterm project, I will stick to my planner and always set goals for myself. I will set time aside and prioritize my project, rather than thinking I can just do it the next day. By being organized, especially with time, I can finish early, have time for other activities, be less stressed and get more sleep. In addition to managing my time more wisely, I can also expand my network rather than just working with one person. By doing so, I will meet more people who share the same passion as me. This can also lead to more opportunities because such

I feel I would continue to be a tremendous asset to the college and art department because of my commitment to excellence, high degree of personal energy, and devotion to higher education. It is therefore my hope that you carefully examine my materials and act favorably on my application.

The Research paper project was very interesting and educational. I learned so much about my topic, and learned how to be a better writer. The topic I chose had a lot of details and so much information about it. Researching drones were fun and fascinating.

I learned an important lesson about myself why doing this project. I learned that I need to be better at decision making and not giving into peer pressure. Choosing to go on the hike instead of staying behind and pulling weeds caused me to miss the

I worked with one other person. Our task was to pick a disease, research the treatment, prevention, prevalence, explain the disease and talk about the how and who. We had to use eight grade vocabularies in our fact sheet in order to educate the entire population. This piece of work is a perfect explanation of my research skills. This also demonstrates the fact that I can use my skills to write at college level, but also at lower levels.

Research is the driving force behind all scientific innovations. Gathering talented and passionate people to increase the understanding of the world to ultimately apply a field of science changes the world. I am currently in my third year of double majoring in chemistry and biology at Concordia University Nebraska. I have thoroughly enjoyed my studies thus far—from learning why drugs have a specific impact on the body to predicting electron movement between molecules—and I look forward to learning more. But at such a small school, one educational experience that is missing is the in-depth, focused research projects like those available at KU.

While I believe expanding my own knowledge is of the utmost importance, I have more passion for trying to educate and fascinate the scientific community. I have done so through many events I have volunteered at and for some I have organized. In the Spring of 2015 I participated in the 1st Annual Student Seminar Series inspired by the world famous TED Talks. This was a very exciting opportunity for me to communicate something I was passionate about to an audience in an

As we’ve already stated in the definition, physics is the natural science that involves the study of matter and its motion through space and time. So first off, matter, the building block of the universe, is any substance which has mass and occupies space. All physical objects are composed of matter, in the form of atoms. Atoms are in turn made up of neutrons, protons, and electrons. Matter also exists in four states: solid, liquid and gas, and plasma; though there are more yet to be proven possible states. Also, all matter is capable of being converted to energy. You might have heard of E = mc2, that would be

Just about everything you do from moving to eating to listening to music involves physics. Now that I have really explored them I think it is hard to go about our day and not do something that involves physics. Some of the things I will talk about are getting out of bed, the eye and how eye glasses help a person see better, speakers, the Frisbee, sailing, and the pulleys I use to get my jeep unstuck in the mud when I ride in the woods.

Physics is all about ideas, all about how the universe works and its hidden properties. These ideas help you predict what will happen with matter and its energy to move and change. You do have to make measurements and you do have to use mathematical equations to find your final answer and what will happen. Somebody with a good understanding of physics has an idea of how a car will
