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.

I pipetted the last of the product I created in the most recent trial of the experiment onto a small metal plate, placed the delicate square into a case, and hurried downstairs to the mass spectrometer. After carefully loading the plate and anxiously waiting for the graphs to pop up, my fellow lab mates came over in excitement to view the results of this latest run; we compared the graph with the theoretical yields. I sighed of relief once I realized that this trial had finally created the product necessary to proceed in the experiment. Getting one step closer to solving our problem was so rewarding. Very exciting; makes me want to read on

When you ask somebody why they chose the path they are taking they will usually respond with the sense that they have wanted to follow that path for as long as they can remember, sometimes they lie about this, and sometimes that is the truth. It is not in my case.

After taking AP Chemistry, I knew that I wanted to study chemistry in college. I also have been a very inquisitive person my whole life, wondering why things are and how things worked. My inquisitive nature and love of chemistry is why chemical engineering appeals to me. I am drawn to Biomedical engineering due to its application of both chemistry and biology to solve medical problems. Doing a complete 360, I am interested in art history, because not only do I find art fascinating, but I also find it mesmerizing how artists visually represent and were inspired by the world around them.

Growing up in a family of doctors influenced me to pursue the knowledge of health and diseases. I long for devoting myself to public health. With data explosion, I realized that data-driven science is indispensable to meet the increasing demand in medical and biological improvement. Therefore, I want to apply tools of statistics to address human health problems and become an excellent biostatistician. My goal in entering in the M.S. program at Johns Hopkins University (JHU) is to develop expertise in Biostatistics. At JHU, I am able to obtain an interdisciplinary perspective, combining approaches and knowledge derived from statistics, computing and biology. In the future, I plan to pursue Ph.D. study and one day lead my own research group. To meet these objectives, I wish to carry on advanced study at JHU.

Why QCSYS? It is a program where one can learn new skills and develop lifelong friendships, all the while living in a university environment. With my expertise in both academic and social settings, it is without a doubt that I am a excellent choice as a candidate for QCSYS.

During math class, I always dread seeing a complexion of lament and irritation across my peers’ faces as another peer asks them a question about trigonometric identities. In the fiercely competitive school of Paly, most students are reluctant to assist others in any way that hinders their chances of a golden college application. However, I think that with such diverse personalities and intelligent minds, I believe that students should collectively build a network that is willing to share information and grow stronger together. As a compassionate person, I have never seen helping others as a cumbersome task or a loss of time.

It is very much evident that the field of pharmacy has been expanding its dimensions at a tremendous rate and contributing a major role in health care. However, my focus has primarily been in understanding the economic aspects of healthcare complementing the safety and efficacy of the therapy. Pharmacoeconomics has been one of the intriguing modules ever since I started learning about it. As a student of a developing country, I perceived several concerns in the healthcare sector esp. in relation to health care cost, which indeed prompted me to develop passion on the subject of Pharmacoeconomics. My long-term objective is to see myself as a significant contributor of health care domain through Pharmacoeconomics research. Hence, I am interested in learning and excelling in this field through the graduate program in pharmacoeconomics & health outcome research at your university.

Although metallurgy and materials science studies dates back many centuries, its scope and popularity remain very little and novel in India. In a country where millions of mechanical, electrical and computer engineers are bred, very few materials engineers are produced. During my freshmen and sophomore year, I had courses in electronics and mechanical technology which blended and integrated mechanical engineering and electrical & electronics engineering with materials science. I was fascinated by the way Materials Engineering was breaching the wall between different fields of studies and promoting interdisciplinary study and research

Throughout my life, I refused to take any part in the medical field. I thought of this field as an unrealistic and difficult road to a successful lifestyle. Experiences in my life and months of weighing the pros and cons caused me to change my mind. Working in the medical field is now my passion; it all begins with majoring in chemistry.

Learning Chemistry, Maths and Physics never got me tired. I’ve started to experience enthusiastic feelings towards those subjects during my high school as I was acknowledged to proceed with my upper school in science stream. I couldn’t agree more that being a science student is very challenging as it involves critical thinking which relates with the theories and practical. However, after a couple of months of learning, I came to realize that I have been intrigued by those subjects despite the challenging parts of understanding. Hence, I really look forward to further my studies in Chemical Engineering which involves deeper understanding of those subjects.

From the very beginning of my student life, I loved biology. When I was in my lower secondary school, I still remember that day when my science teacher told me the story of microbes and the day after showed and taught applications of microscope, my interest in microbiology started to take its shape. I became even intensely interested when he told us that bacteria and virus are invisible to your naked eyes, however they can cause you disease and some might kill you. After the completion of my high school as a science major student, my parents wanted me to join medical school and become a doctor. But I had already encrypted curiosity of microbiology inside my mind. So, I began my journey into the world of microbiology. I secretly joined microbiology without telling my parents and told them that I am not shortlisted in MBBS exam.

I feel greatly pleased in presenting myself as Environmental Engineering student. It was the first time I had seen a board with slogan ‘Garbage is Penny', when I was in grade five. My childhood brain could not understand the chemistry behind garbage being money. Following basic the concept of compost manure, I then realized garbage can be converted into money if recycled as compost manure.

Learning makes a man fit company for him”. This maxim impressed me right from my childhood days to learn something new each day, learn, learn and relearn until my end. My decision to apply for MS polymer engineering has emerged, both from my passion for research and my aspiration to understand the language of energy generation. I felt polymer engineering footholds the entire world. This makes it one of the most challenging fields of the present generation. It has the power to create novel designs in the field. I keenly wish to contribute more towards the polymer engineering to this field by acquiring the practical knowledge and experience that will enable me to create cutting-edge methods for the development of management in the commercial and industrial sectors. I believe the MS program from your esteemed university is of paramount importance to strengthen me as a person and a professional.

A strong desire to achieve my aspiration coupled with my interest in science field enabled me to secure admission in undergraduate program in science (Chemistry) from Mithibai College in Mumbai University, which is one of the top ten colleges in Mumbai, India. My genuine interest in chemistry brought me an award in "Srujan" project (Neutron Activation Analysis) associated with Nehru Science Center. The project edified my mind with practical knowledge and expertise in TLC, Crystallization, NMR, Spectroscopy (UV, Visible and IR), Chromatography (HPLC and Gas) and stereochemistry.
