Personal Statement
During my third year of my undergraduate studies in mathematics I was struggling to stay attentive to my required courses. Although I deeply enjoy mathematics and mathematics theory, I was finding that much of my academic time was being spent studying theories and abstract material. I also found that I couldn't discuss my work with many of my friends outside of my major because the topics were not relatable. After experience some deep frustration during my first term, I enrolled in an Operations Research course and from the first day of class, and I enjoyed the course material and the very practical mathematics applications we discussed and read about. I began learning about topics that connected mathematical analysis to concrete issues in the financial and technology industries, and for the first time I saw how my coursework related to many current events. My near-perfect grade in the course is a reflection of my enthusiasm for the coursework and my superior abilities to master the topics covered.
Very early in my academic career I always had natural affinity towards mathematics and science and found it easy to
I enjoy complex problems and I am continuously fascinated by how technology evolves at a rapid rate. Like many people my age, I grew up using computers to not only complete my academic work but also communicate with others and entertain myself. When I entered college I thrived in my coursework because I was driven by e genuine interest in the subject matter and a love of problem solving.
I originally planned to enroll in graduate school with the goal of entering academia because I have had a long-standing interest in mathematics research. After having more extensive exposure to Operational Research topics, however, it became very clear to me many industries offer opportunities that will use my skills and meet my interests. Currently, I plan to pursue a career in the technology market, and I'd specifically like to work with network design, online problems and dynamic optimization. To that end I have completed a year-long internship as a research assistant in my university's mathematics department, and I have worked on two separate projects, both of which explore problem solving as it applies…
My first interest is to work at a battering intervention and prevention program through a battered women's shelter. This position would allow me to educate the public, by discussing battering in various situations and helping reach target populations where battering is not discussed or is considered normative. However, I understand that working with batterers is not simply about education; the vast majority of them have been abused, themselves, and
Personal Statement What is your intended major? Discuss how your interest in the field developed and describe any experience you have had in the field - such as volunteer work, internships and employment, participation in student organizations and activities - and what you have gained from your involvement. My planned major is Sociology. My interest in this field stems from my own life's challenges such as being brought to the United States
As I have already pointed out elsewhere in this text, while growing up, I had the opportunity of interacting with various health professionals, amongst them nurses. From these interactions, I became aware that the profession does have its challenges. I am hence under no illusion whatsoever that nursing calls for sacrifice. I am ready to sacrifice so as to enhance the well-being of those who need my care the
Personal Statement In today's world, there are several reasons nursing is one of the most essential professionals imaginable. First, medicine is changing in two directions that make the nurse an essential, indispensable member of the patient care team. The continuing expansion of medical technologies means that physicians will be more and more specialized. Nurses will specialize as well, but because they are often the first and last person a patient sees when
Personal Statement I have always admired people like Bill Gates and Michael Dell who started their own businesses while still in college, with hardly any startup money. They poured everything they had, and even neglected their studies, into a creative business venture. They relied on what they knew instinctually, in that case knowledge of computers, and also discovered a previously untapped market niche. I believe a lot of business sense is
Personal Statement Programme: Masters in Science Degree in Media, Communication and Development I have always known that I'm an extrovert. In addition to finding it easy to start (and maintain) conversations with people, I have a flair for teamwork and team effort. This is perhaps the root of my passion for behavioral sciences. It is also on the basis of this that I would like to pursue a career that perfectly aligns
