PERSONAL STATEMENT “Education is the passport to the future, for tomorrow belongs to those who prepare for it today.” - Malcom X. Ending the various phases of my education thus far, I have noticed an increasing demand for a more extensive role of an engineer. An engineer with a wide range of knowledge and broad base of technical skills cutting across several engineering disciplines. I am a young Civil Engineering graduate from Covenant University with a lifelong objective to be a resourceful Structural/Environmental
Prior to attending University as a Civil Engineering student, there were plenty of natural disasters, including earthquakes, flooding, etc., that stole human lives and left destruction and havoc for the survivors in my country, not only due to the strength of those disasters, but simply due to the weakness of our structures, such as our buildings, bridges, roads, etc. I was obsessed with that immense toll in our country that was due to a simple negligence and lack of knowledge. Consequently, I consulted
that simple. Likewise, after four years of undergraduate studies in civil engineering, it seems to me I have barely scratched its surface. A graduate school will allow me to delve deep and let me explore the finer aspects of the field. Furthermore, this is crucial in terms of achieving my long-term goal of pursuing a PhD to carve out a career in industrial research. I am applying to pursue a course in Structural Engineering because it provides an ideal background to broaden my perspective and give
Personal Statement Infrastructure has always played a crucial role in human prosperity. Development in infrastructure like roads, bridges and dams has facilitated interaction between different communities enhancing trade and cultural exchange. Until recently little attention was paid to the effects of infrastructure development on our environment and living conditions. Increased exploitation of natural resources is challenging mankind’s response to nature’s dynamic equilibrium changes. I believe
When talking about engineering, people would probably have pictures in their mind of engineers using machines producing parts, drawing and sketching designs, or even doing some mathematical calculations. A more general answer to what engineers actually do would be that they solve social problems through the use of machines, devices, systems, materials and processes. They are all absolutely correct. But in reality, both the job and the role of an engineer are more complicated. They do not only have
Statement of Purpose “The thrust for knowledge increases with the acquisition of it.” - Thomas Carlyle. I have always believed in the above adage which asks for more and more learning and I am applying for graduate studies in order to quench my thirst for knowledge. The most important reason for pursuing graduate studies is that it will raise me to a level of excellence where upon I would have the ability to impart knowledge, convince and innovate in my field. They conceive, they design, they analyze
INTRODUCTION Engineering Ethics come from two words, which is engineering and ethics. Engineering is one of the applications of science to meet human needs and desires. Combines engineering science, mathematics, and experience to design an object or process. Professional engineering practice called engineers. The word engineering came from Latin word which is ingenium meaning ‘contrive, design’. In this 21st century, engineering had been use widely surround human life. The word ethics derived from

Abstract In teaching structural analysis modules to first and second year civil engineering students, teachers have found that many students are unable to solve basic structural engineering problems which is a necessary skill to posses in order to succeed in any higher education level. In general, students tend to do work or revise, when exams are close or when there is a need to do an assignment, which results in spending less time on understanding the subject core concepts and possessing a basic
