Personal Statement: My Story With Computer Science

1. I have developed an interest in science during my high school career, and love watching new technology being created. I figure that I will most likely either continue on to medical school after I receive my undergraduate degree or try to work to design new technologies that will aid scientific research and study. Therefore, it was really a no-brainer for me to pursue various STEM related courses and subjects. In my opinion, the STEM field contributes to innovation and world progress more than any other fields. Without STEM fields, I most likely wouldn’t even be able to type this paper, or use the internet to submit my college application and scholarships. If the STEM field were to disappear, the world would stagnate. In order to prevent

Have you ever felt the exhilarating feeling of being watched? Like how every move you made felt as if it were being noted and permanently glued to your spectator's mind, the feeling where everyone just wanted to see you fail or make a fool of yourself. In November 2015 my brother and I participated in a fashion show, it took place on on the twelfth and thirteenth at 7:30 each night, Bridgerland Applied Technology College was our host. To be ready for the show we learned the walk, the smile, and anything we needed to know to succeed.

There were times in elementary school when teachers had to pick me up from my chair to give another student a chance to use the school computer. When I first laid eyes on a computer I was amazed at all the things that it could accomplish but I never really delved the aspects of it. This changed when I took my AP Computer Science course during my junior year, taking the class helped develop my passion for the computer. Taking this course helped me to explore other areas of the computer that I didn’t know existed, because I wanted to learn more about the world of computers I decided to join the cyber security team and the robotics team at my school. By joining the cybersecurity team I was able to augment my knowledge on computers in general,

The career opportunity that was most interesting for me to pursue is a Coding and Reimbursement Specialist. There are more job opportunities as a Coding Specialist as long as you know the information well. It is in great demand and there is sometimes an option to work from home. When I researched about it, I became more interested in it. I felt like I could take on the challenge and go for this degree.

While taking computer and engineering classes the subjects relating to computer sciences always stood out to me. Being in an actual

Thanks to my current school, I have grown to adore computer science. Unlike many other subjects in school, such as biology or world history, there is no need to memorize facts. Instead, it is a language that almost any person can learn - well, at least the basics. It is similar to learning a language, but, unlike languages such as Spanish or Chinese, there is no weird grammar that makes absolutely no sense that are considered to be "exceptions." Programming languages use logic, making it easy to learn and to

So I finally decided to take Computer Programming as my technical program. I chose this through great consideration, and guidance from my teachers. It can give me insight on what major I would want to take in college, and what career path is best suited for

As far as my interests in computer science, it is due to technology being highly dynamic and the applications the skills learned could be used in virtually all industries.

A career as Magnetic Resonance Imaging Technologist has allowed me to see the effects of drugs on the people who take them. Working with patients who have all types of diseases, are on many types or have tried many types of therapies, and are frequently involved in a drug trial as given me another view of the drug development process. The world of pharmaceuticals fascinates me and my work so far has ignited a desire to acquire additional skills that will allow a deeper involvement in clinical studies. After over ten years of working in a hospital setting using imaging drugs I transitioned into a career working for a company that manufactured these drugs. It was during this time that I learned about the interactions of drugs and different types

Starting freshman year, one of my first courses was Intermediate Programming which introduced me to the world of programming, coding, computers and technology in general. I developed a great interest for this field because of its use of numbers, logic and problem solving. I enjoyed looking at code and seeing how I could make it more robust or efficient. The joy from that class led me to take AP computer science two years later and then IT Essentials my senior year. During my sophomore year, I took Aeronautical Engineering and Engineering Applications. During these two classes I was as exposed to the engineering process and how to manage a project. Particularly, as a final project in Engineering Applications, I combined my

Therefore, the majority of the college students are obsessed with computer science to acquire a financial advantage in the work place.

For majority, finding the area of interest is not very easy thing to do. It was same for me too. However, as I've gone through past 3 years of high school and a semester of Junior Fellowship Experience, I sort of gained little bit of idea of what I would want to do or what I would be good at. When I first joined AP Computer Science course in the beginning of my junior year, I expected myself to fully understand and become master at programming. However, I realized I totally underestimated the course. This course even suggested students to have pre-requite of honors programming class, but I was very arrogant to take the lower level class. I was stuck and falling behind due to large amount of new information and works. Therefore, people might think that this experience would give me unpleasant impression of computer science, but I, although it did at first, kind of started to enjoy learning about programming and coding and even thought myself that maybe this field might be relevant to my future career. I hope to gain more knowledge and investigate more in this field to actually confirm if this field fits me or not.

After graduating high school, I went to UNC Chapel Hill. Although I wasn’t sure about my major, but was able to take interesting classes and join various clubs and organizations. One of those was AIESEC, a leadership development platform that facilitates global exchange. My leadership experience in PFO gave me the background and confidence to travel abroad alone for the first time,

Even though I possess several of the skills-traits that employee’s value, I will elaborate on my interpersonal skills that I believe to be one of my strongest attributes. Nevertheless, I will also discuss how I plan to go about improving my technical-computer skills. What I consider one of my strongest attributes is my interpersonal skills; this ability has helped me achieve success in both academic and the professional fields. In academic, I will include letters of recommendation from two professors at Lamar State College Port Arthur, Dr. Laura Johnson Stafford and Prof. Albert Clyde Faggard Jr. Furthermore, in Dr. Stafford's online public speaking class my persuasive speech video has been archived by the college and is now used as an example,

My interest towards mathematics made me to take Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry as the main subjects during my intermediate (10+2). After obtaining 94% marks in Intermediate and securing a top 6% rank in engineering entrance test, I opted for Computer Science Engineering in JNTU College of Engineering. Immediately after my Bachelor’s degree, I secured the job in Wipro Technologies and this offered me numerous opportunities to learn about the technical aspects of Software industry.
