My technology education teacher, Ms. Foulds, took a small group of students into the workshop and we used machines and learned specific safety requirements. She has also taught us great tips on computers and skills that I would take with me to college – such as finger placement when typing.…
Many scholars go to universities to get a degree but sometimes, the ride is more important. Drew Preston, a junior at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln doesn’t answer the question of what he wants to do in the future because there are too many choices. “Don’t plan a concrete future because you never know what may happen,” Preston said. Covering music or even writing about politics, these are his dreams. After an interview over the phone with John Teti, the editor of The Onion, Drew discovered that he could get an interview from anyone.…

After a long, well-thought out process, my deepest desire is to attend medical school and work as a Surgeon. Even though the road is a long process, the persistency to start modifying and making a difference to affect my community is being done now and will be during…
Pre-Experience Journal Entry I was born to be an engineer. I grew up playing math games, building lego sets, and taking apart electronics. My Senior Capstone Experience (SCE) will definitely be in the area of engineering. More specifically, I would love to do either computer science or electrical engineering, as these are the areas I want to major in when I go to college. I came to GSMST because I have always had an interest in engineering, and GSMST has only made that interest stronger.…
To be successful, to be intelligent, to be a change. Those are the three main reasons I want to attend college. In this day and age, many jobs require a higher level of education to be able to work. Those jobs that don’t require a degree, depend upon more manual labor, backbreaking work and lower wages. I would rather remain in school longer, expand my knowledge, and get a career on everything I have learned, than go straight to the work field to earn less and do more.…
My view on ENGR 1000 During my first freshman semester as a student of UCONN, my point of view of what is like to be an engineer haven’t change at all. I took the class ENGR 1000 because it was part of the curriculum to graduate as an engineer, but it was also intended to give clues and ideas of the different areas that are within the engineer field. I learned some useful things with my professor, but also from my peers. Even do the majority of my class wanted to become computer/system engineers, I and everyone in the class of ENGR 1000 shared many similarities when it comes to knowledge and the use of technology as a tool to solve real world problem, and build things that would help the whole humanity today and in the near future. One…

Ever since I was young, I have been exposed to graduate school labs. My father dedicated his life, passion, and determination to his emotional engineering research and students. I grew up watching my father formulate innovative hypotheses and implement them in real-life engineering systems; from these observations, I have grown my own passion and determination to achieve something similar in my future. I pursued my education in engineering in college, and although my grades in my initial years were not excellent, I have matured as a student and followed my studies seriously by challenging myself with difficult technical courses. Overall, my undergraduate studies enabled me to discover the specific field that I was most interested in: dynamics and biomedical engineering.…
