My Personal Statement On Computer Science

Prior to this, growing up in Kathmandu, Nepal, my childhood consisted of me daydreaming of becoming the one and only computer scientist. I was just another young, eager child to meet life’s challenges. Taking these daring challenges led my journey to University of Massachusetts Lowell to pursue a degree towards computer science leading me closer

Engineers use critical thinking and creativity to solve problems, which mirrors the process I used to write algorithms for the labs or projects in the class. Attending two hackathons over the summer, I learned first-hand the creativity and collaboration necessary in the field of computer science, and successfully created an app in only 24 hours. The limitless possibilities to use my inventiveness and intellectual abilities to solve these problems is why I want to study computer science and engineering in college. As I will be attending UCLA, I want to apply my theoretical knowledge of computer science and engineering into real-world experience in the form of internships and co-op programs. While I have programmed apps and websites, I want to take my coding abilities to the next level, and begin to create complex system structures such as operating systems, as well as optimizing the hardware components, such as processors, for these systems. However, I intend to explore a multitude of academic topics in college, such as economics and statistics, and use my years to grow as an intellectual and

I am dedicated to my work and once I start something I do my absolute best to finish it on time and right the first time. I am enthusiastic and willing to learn new things and is able to adapt to new stations and people if needed. I also have excellent communication skills with peers around me which is helpful because you need to be able to talk to people effectively so they can understand what you need them to do or what they need you to do. I am familiar with some programs used to code like Khan academy , Scratch , and App Inventor (grade 10) and used them with great efficiency knowledge and skill. In Grade 9 I took Comm-Tech which deals with Photoshop and video editing and also used them effectively. My passion for being game designer /

My interest in Computer Science started when I joined in Robotics Team during my Sophomore year of high school. As a new member, I presumed a semester of Honors Computer Science would prepare me to contribute to the team. My initial excitement was short-lived, however, as I trudged through program after program - completing well over thirty by the end of the first semester. I sensed something was missing; I didn’t feel completely fulfilled.

I always enjoyed school, but in my adult years, I have come to recognize that I feel great excitement when placed in new situations where I can gain new knowledge – on any topic. I searched for a path that allowed me to always feel there was something new to learn, and with technology being an industry that is ever-changing and adapting to the world, I knew it wouldn’t disappoint me. There is an abundance of areas within technology that are brand new or not yet developed, so there are infinite possibilities to expand my knowledge and be the person who is actually creating the exciting technology I used to read about. In computer programming, there are countless languages to learn and infinite ways to create more efficient and effective code. I strive under pressure and this industry will give innumerable occasions to adapt and change with the living forces that are technology and

My intended major is Computer Science (CS). Ever since the first time I approached a computer few years ago, I felt a deep connection with the computer. This is what I want to do, this is what I am destined to do: to major in CS and create the best programs that will be useful to everyone, every day. There is so much more to being a CS major than being in front of computer and program all day, CS major also provides experiences on teamwork. Most successful, complicated programs were not built by a single programmer, but by a team of programmers who can work well with one another. Being involved in a team would teach me how to interact with other people and become a better person. To become successful in CS major, I took most of my general education classes in my early semesters so I can focus on my major without distraction.

The world is full of problems. Problems are like puzzles; and given enough patience and effort, most puzzles can be solved. I, Raleigh Showalter, like to solve puzzles. I prefer usually prefer the digital ones though. Computers have interested me for a large part of my life, so I often enjoy solving puzzles on computers or with computers. To better organize my knowledge of computers and to increase my chances of having a successful career in tech, I followed the advise of my programming mentor and began attending college with the hope of someday attaining a bachelor's degree in computer science. In order to complete my education, however, I must also tackle some non-technical courses. Hence, I'm currently writing a journal entry for an English

I am from Yuma Arizona and I have lived in Lake Tahoe for almost 30 years. My interests include digital art, 3d modeling, and pretty much anything that has to do with creating content for the web and games. I do not ski or snowboard, I am clumsy and simply just a chicken!… I Am working on my AA in Computer and Information Science. I am also interested in becoming an entrepreneur and using the digital content I create as my product. I am in the very early stages, basically at the thought stage with ongoing research as I go through my classes. Theatre 101 was not one of the requirements for my AA, fortunately, the class I was scheduled for was cancelled and I was able to register for this class, one of those “happy accidents” I would say. After

The boundless possibility of trying out and the instant knowledge of the outcome that stimulates one for further analysis of a rationale in question is what I find most appealing about Computer Science. Keeping up an inquisitive and explorative attitude, I believe, leads to a constant learning process. This approach adds to the already immense potential for innovation that exists in this field.

The path of a computer scientist is never easy and requires hard work, strong mental focus, and the ability to

I am interested in this position out of the nessicity computer literacy has become for developing youth. Growing up, I had the privilege to cultivate an interest in computer programming and web development that I later turned into a certificate in Web Authoring. However, I understand how traditional literacy in school systems do not always accommodate computer literacy and I would love to be involved in helping develop that. My experience for this position academically includes courses in HTML and CSS, as courses in Word Press. In taking these courses I believe I would be best suited for this position as I appreciate the need for literacy in coding.

Fortunate to have grown up in a tech-savvy home in times of tremendous technological advancement, I developed an affinity to all things technology which got me interested in doing my Bachelors in Computer science which I took an instant liking to, especially computer programming. In my first year of engineering, the year following my mother’s passing, I chose to deal with the loss by immersing myself in extracurricular activities and went on to win the first prize in chess, cricket and football tournaments and finished runner-up in the

The fast-moving technologies have revolutionized the world from the perspectives of reading, communication, entertainment, business, and so on. The desire to become part of the revolution drove me to choose software engineering as my major in the college. I am so obsessed with programming that I can sit in front of a computer coding for an entire day. Logical problem solving, which is readily visible in computing and programming, has motivated me to continue graduate studies in computer science (basically the major name here, it could be computer engineering or others depending on the program you will apply ). Especially, I’m very interested in Networking and Human Computer Interaction, which are the representative of the speed of development in computer science and fundamental to achieve my career goal—build software that can actually help people and easy to cope with. I want to help people like my grandparents to learn how to use the internet, to be able to talk to people they love when they are far away; I want to give the only child an e-friend when they are alone; I want to help to clean our internet world and stop bullying.

Over the years one has never to say, “I have reached the destination of knowledge”. That is the greatness of pursuit of knowledge. it has always been a propelling force, which made me to engage myself in search of it.After carefully contemplating the various career options open to me, I have decided to opt for graduate study that calls for personal commitment in fulfilling the crafts of independent research and dedicated involvement.

With the histrionic advance in the technological world, it would be difficult to play down the significance of Computer Science in the business and technological world today. It is against this milieu that I have realized the need to pursue further education in Computer Science at the University of Michigan in order to realize my career objectives. After careful contemplation, it has become obvious to me that establishing a thriving career in Computer Science demands advanced training in Computer Science and similar subjects. I chose to enroll my master’s program with you because I am a keen enthusiast of your research centres and facilities, which I consider to be critical in attaining greater academic excellence. I am
