Engineering and technology may not be the easiest areas of study, but they are subjects that continue to be in demand, and because they are challenging, those studying them stand out from the crowd. You are also more likely to find employment quickly and work your way up the career ladder with an engineering or technology degree under your belt. -Institute of Engineering(IET), 2015.
As far back as I remember, the inner working of electrical and electronics gadgets has always fascinated me. I always wanted to know what makes them tick. I remember disassembling almost every electrical appliance in our house, just to see it working at the very basics. I have been interested to know how electrical engineering forms the core basis for the developments in modern technology. As I was growing up and my interest in electrical & electronics engineering increased, the below wise sayings makes more sense to me by the day;
"Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life." — Confucius "Work to become, not to acquire." — Elbert Hubbard "Dreams are extremely important. You can't do it unless you imagine it." — George Lucas
It was due to the above that I studied science in my secondary school so as to have a well grounded foundation in achieving my dream. While in secondary school, there were many societies but I opted for the Jet society which is the parent body for Engineering and Science loving students. I later rose to become the head of the Jet society due to my numerous contributions and active participation particularly the team organization. Ever since the end of my primary school I had been the athlete of my school (by the second year of my secondary school, I had become the number 2 ahtlete in the whole education district, winning prizes for the school. This athletic experience instilled the spirit of incessant perseverance and continuous struggle in me, athletically as well as academically. As an athlete, I realized that, apart from perseverance, making strategic adjustments was also necessary. Therefore, while making psychological adjustments, I endeavored to improve my methods of study and gradually but unmistakably I achieved remarkable improvements in my academic performance. As a result, my sustained ascendance in academic performance further fueled my desire to become an Engineer someday. In completing this application, I believe that I am highly-grounded, well-motivated, and exceptionally-focused as It has been my long-cherished expectation to enter your prestigious university for a degree program that will make possible my even more fruitful career development in the future. Apart from making academic contributions to your program, I believe I can make equally important athletic contributions to your extracurricular campus life. If given the opportunity to achieve my dream by your prestigious university, I promise to add more value to your university and not let you down in any way. I also promise to contribute my quota to the development of Engineering, your prestigious university and the world as a whole
