GA TECH Beyond rankings, location, and athletics, why are you interested in attending Georgia Tech? (max 150 words) Interning at the ADAMS Lab at the University at Buffalo made me realized my passion I had for engineering research. Working with Autonomous UAVs I began to understand just how satisfying the element of discovery and how much the rigor appealed to me. I hope to continue working with autonomous UAVs as a researcher in college.
In high school, I was a member of the STEM (Science Technology Engineering and Math) magnet program. I completed the Project Lead the Way (PLTW) pathway and took a wide variety of engineering classes. I also got experience job shadowing’s and explore different activities that prepared me for my future career with activities such as mock interviews and resume writing. During my junior summer in high school, I got the opportunity to intern at a small engineering firm (Infrared Tools LLC) and work side by side with the engineers there getting hands on experience. This past semester I’ve been a student at Virginia Tech as a member of the Corps of Cadets and enrolled in Air Force ROTC.

Georgia Tech is filled with opportunities for students to flourish; but the students are some of the many who contribute to the community to make it enriching for many others around them. Not only do I want to benefit from this diverse community, but also support this tight-knit group through spreading cultural awareness, doing community service, and working on research projects that can bring about changes in the society. I have been training in Bharatanatyam, a form of classical Indian dance, since I was in kindergarten. Over the past thirteen years, it has been a great experience performing at various locations and learning new styles of dance. When I entered high school, I joined South Asian American Student Association and choreographed many Bollywood,
In my sophomore year of high school, my English teacher assigned the class to a read a novel of our choice and report back what we liked most about it. My choice was Ethan Frome and I read the book repeatedly just so I could connect back to the characters and the setting of the novel. When I completed my sophomore year in high school, I discovered my passion for literature and the genres that accompanied it. I always knew that undergraduate studies would be my chance to grow more with my new found interest. .After high school I attended Mississippi Valley State University, a Historically Black University, where I majored in English and graduated with honors.
From completing the Virginia Wizard assessments, I was able to full grasp what I want to study and attempt to achieve in college. I already know that I am a science orientated person, and the Virginia Wizard helped reassure me with this opinion based on its feedback. With the skills assessment Science, Technology, Engineering, & Math ranked highest in my skills, which agrees with my mindset which I held before. My interests assessment told me that I am a conventional person, but also investigative. I enjoy being given a problem, and then figuring out how to solve that problem; not only do I solve the problem, but I am curious to understand why the solution works.
Ultimately, diverse relationships cause discoveries of new characteristics and personality traits. Finally, this welcoming community also provides a Living Learning Program (LLP). These programs allow opportunities to interact with advisors and engineering graduate students to meet the rigorous expectations of the engineering program. In addition, the Engineering Community could improve social and leadership skills, forming greater connections with the broader
The minute I came across the announcement for the NSF REU site on Facebook, I knew immediately that I had chosen the correct major at Florida State University. Like many transfer students, and a distance one at that, I was limited by my selection during the transfer process and decided on Interdisciplinary Social Science with concentrations in Sociology and Geography. The description of the research project on the Citizen Science GIS website put my decision to study ISS into clear perspective when I had the lightbulb moment of why; because I am passionate about people, places, and stories, and that the research tracks are something that would be just as useful in the coastal community of Sarasota where I live. Truth be told, I was not always this passionate about the coast.
Growing up, I was never afraid of being myself. I have a very large family, so I knew how to socialize very well at a young age. Socializing is a huge part of who I am, and it’s a part of my life I will always enjoy. I love meeting new people, because people always differ from one another. I respect the diversity of someone’s culture and background.

My experience in the teaching of general chemistry, Organic chemistry, inorganic chemistry, quantitave and qualitative analysis methods in chemistry, mentoring undergraduate students as a post doctoral research associate and as a graduate student have provided me the background necessary to successfully assume the position that you have described. Even though currently
Provide a brief explanation describing your interest in a living/learning environment and the particular program you are interested in. Be sure to include specific attributes you will bring to the position. Currently I am an associate in the CIVICUS Living and Learning Program. Through my time here at Maryland the program has truly instilled all five of its pillars within my ability to interact with those within and outside my program.
Pico della Mirandola’s An Oration on the Dignity of Man emphasizes humanism in which all human beings and the creations of God possess knowledge, reason, and a sense of morality. Mirandola also puts both references of the Bible and the classical philosophy of Plato that share a unity of thought of the appreciation of mankind and their intelligence. Man was created and is appreciated for their possession of great, unlimited potential and knowledge within his work and they are within the Great Chain of Being. This is a religious hierarchal structure of life by the divinity of God and it progresses and incorporates numerous different creatures, beings, and elements within it.
The virtues of thought are necessary for a student to be successful as an electrical engineer. As an engineer, all aspects of the virtues of thought are not gained at Texas A&M University. The reason for this is because virtues of thought is gained through training, education, and learning (Miller). As a student of this institution, I believe we do not receive the necessary formal training for several courses offered. We do, however, receive education and learning experience heavily based on theoretical analysis.
I am passionate in joining the exchange to Georgia Institute of Technology (Georgia Tech) is based on the following reasons: Firstly, I believe it is a golden opportunity for personal growth and to gain new perspectives on the globe. Georgia Tech is one of the leading universities in mechanical engineering to do a cultural exchange with my fellow schoolmates are so exciting to me. I have always been told that the US culture is very different to Hong Kong, yet I have never been there and so it will come true for me to get the first-hand experience, by living there for three months. In terms of leadership development, I am going to join the I-house, with a leadership residential program with half as local students and half as exchange students. We all can join various organizing committees to propose and run different kinds of cultural events such as film, sports, cuisines, community services, etc, which we do not have similar kind of organization run for cultural exchange in that diverse areas in HKUST.
Liberal Arts and Engineering Engineering is often considered to be an incredibly sought after position by the secular world. It is a prestigious career, esteemed by many people for the financial compensation that it earns even without the necessity of a graduate school. For much of American undergraduates, this is the final destination for any college experience: a good job and the wealth that comes with it. However, for the Christian college student, the overall goal is to live a life pleasing to God, rather than to oneself.
