When I was a kid,I saw a show in which a criminal investigator caught the murderer by performing some chemical tests on a small amount of liquid left at the crime scene. What fascinated me the most about this incident was the magical way in which answers could be found from seemingly ordinary objects by using a few reagents. I became a regular follower of such shows and thus began my love for Chemistry. During my undergraduate studies, I discovered that Analytical Chemistry formed the backbone of these so-called magical techniques,which further influenced me to get a higher degree in Analytical Chemistry. Another topic that gave me inspiration toward chemistry was sustainability of energy and environment. Being a citizen of a developing country, I observed energy crisis and environmental pollution first-hand. I want to contribute to solve this problem by pursuing higher studies in Environmental chemistry, as it will enable me to use my intellectual potentials for the betterment of the environment and in-turn the society.
My past academic accomplishments bear a testament of my future endeavors. I achieved the GPA of 5.00 in the scale of 5.00 in both the secondary and higher secondary studies. The desire for an exhilarating career in the field of chemistry motivated me to apply to the department of Applied Chemistry &
Chemical Engineering, University of Dhaka, which is the oldest and most prestigious university in
Bangladesh. The program had a well-structured and comprehensive
For most of my childhood, I have been fascinated by the power that science has to transform humanity. Due to this belief, I developed a keen interest in the science of chemistry. In my opinion, chemistry is a puzzle that provides insight about our surroundings, similarly, by attending Tufts University I will gain different viewpoints which I will use to pursue my future endeavors. Consequently, the endless opportunities at Tufts University combined with my passion for new discoveries, commitment to fruitful endeavors and the determination required for success will produce a stimulating learning environment in which I feel I belong.
Out of all of the skin care products in the world, your bathroom cabinet needs to be filled with products researched and designed by me. When I entered high school, I discovered my passion for selecting lip sticks, lip glosses, lotions, perfumes, and makeup foundations. You name it. After learning about the connections between the information in my chemistry class and these items, a light bulb went off! I maintained an A average in chemistry throughout the whole year! Additionally, in 2014, I became a student in the Academy of Engineering and Technology, which also heightened my interests in chemistry. In a science fair at that academy, there was a chemistry course where we made colorful slime, and during that process, I learned that I get an adrenaline rush when I am mixing different chemicals together to see what the outcome is. Majoring in chemistry at Norfolk State University will definitely prepare me for a very successful future in chemistry! My ultimate goal is to conduct research and development for chemical cosmetics. I plan to obtain employment at the greatest companies in the world such as L'Oréal and Avon.
I have always known that I wanted to pursue an education in science; there were simply too many questions in this world that had yet to be answered. Never did I expect my love of music, however, to have truly inspired and intertwined with my love for chemistry. This, I learned, is because my admiration for music and chemistry are one and the same. Music has taught me that chemistry is also a form of art. I first
I am sitting here completely dumb founded as I think about chemistry. How does chemistry relate to me? How do I relate chemistry? It is such a subject that I am unsure of how it fits into my life other than a class I took in high school. As I dig deeper instead of just scratching the surface, I realize that I use and will be going to use chemistry more and more in my life.

I want to earn my master’s degree in criminal justice in order to make myself a better police officer and to allow me to further serve my community by teaching others that want to serve in the criminal justice profession. I have served in law enforcement since 1998. In my time in the criminal justice field I have had the honor of teaching law enforcement related classes, giving lectures to community groups, and training new police officers on a one on one level. These experiences have caused my interest in police work to evolve and I have discovered a passion for teaching that has become my obsession. I currently and responsible for teaching 8hour blocks of instruction at my police department in the subjects of basic handgun instruction,
I have always loved suspenseful whodunit television shows, movies, and books that use forensic science to crack the cases. My favorite television show is The First 48, my favorite movie is The Silence of the Lambs, and my favorite book is The Body Farm. Therefore, I was excited to have the opportunity to take this course and learn even more about the subject of forensics. This essay gives a summary of N. E. Genge’s book, The Forensic Casebook: The Science of Crime Scene Investigation, and includes the things I disliked and liked about the book.
Excitement and fear rushed through my body. A new adventure had just begun, and I had no idea what to expect. I was excited for the opportunity to do something that I loved, but I still had that fear that maybe I had made my decision too quickly. There was no turning back and no giving up at this point. I started my sophomore year with my first organic chemistry class, and it was difficult. Unlike other chemistry classes, Organic chemistry requires a different train of thought, it requires an understanding of structures and reactions that many people do not understand. This class made my passion grow stronger. Seeing how one molecule could be dangerous, but then minimally modifying that molecule to make it safe was a great way to see how chemistry could affect the world. That difference in one molecule showed me the impact that chemist could have on society, and I would not have learned that if I had not changed
Forensic science plays a huge part in our criminal justice system today. But where did it get its start? What procedures are utilized today to help investigators solve our everyday mysteries when it comes to crimes? In addition, what forensic aspects in the video “Welcome to Homicide” were used to finally get a confession of murder? This paper will discuss these topics and elaborate on some of the key evidence that was used to close this particular case.
The subject of chemistry offered a newfound challenge. I became captivated by the infinite number of puzzles to solve in chemistry. My teacher used to say, “Problem? Did you mean opportunity?”
At Northwestern’s Weinberg College of Arts & Sciences, I would surround myself with people who share my passion, eager to explore the depths of chemical reactions.

After a plethora of meticulous research my search converged to one point i.e. Chemical engineering.That kindled my first interest in the field of chemical engineering.
Chemistry is a very challenging field of study and would provide the obstacles needed for me to grow as a student and young adult.
As I am a science student at heart, it was no wonder that I chose this career path. I love Biology and Chemistry, both of which I did during my IGCSE and now my A-Levels. It intrigues me to see how both sciences can be applied so readily to us and the world around us. Both are so intertwined in how they form the basis of life. Naturally inquisitive in how I always had to know what, why and how, nothing would be greater than to further delve into the world of science and widen my
