Many people in their papers will probably first write about what led them in wanting to become an engineer and then go off onto how they will become a “world class” engineer, but I’m just going to go straight to the point with what I, will soon one day, hope to be by the time I will graduate from college. In this paper I will answer the one question that I have always dreaded as a young student in my elementary school days; which is “how” will I become whatever it was that I wanted to do at the time that I was asked. Since a lot of engineering students do not always commit to the engineering program and graduate with an engineering degree it’s a good idea to come up with a plan to address the behavior and attitude that it takes to graduate …show more content…
I will continue to try and master an area in my degree and learn to apply it to other ways as well. Because, even though, I can master something in a particular way, it doesn’t mean that I have mastered it fully unless I understand it in all ways possible. Last, but not least, in order to be the best at something I have to learn to rely and trust on peers because they may have another way at looking at problems then I have. They could also have an easier and more efficient solution to a problem that I may be struggling with. These three tips to myself, and others, alone can be applied to each of the four topics that I have discussed because it is, again in my opinion, what it means to be a true “world class” engineer. If I were to break it down, world by definition means “all aspects of human life”. The word “class” means “order of a society”. This means that, besides my goals of graduating with a Biomedical engineering degree by 2019, a 3.5 GPA, a community of engineers besides me, the subjects that I will learn in my major’s core classes, etc. I will have to work with a diverse and creatively smart group of people (which is where my plan comes into
I am very much interested in the field of engineering and hope to pursue a career in engineering sometime in the future. Although I haven’t decided which branch of engineering I want to pursue yet, my experiences as an engineering magnet student at Wheaton High school and the different engineering programs I am a part of have ignited within me a passion for engineering.
The future; after high school, after college, the future is a later time period that will happen in one’s life. For my future I plan to attend college and later become an engineer. College is one of the best choices available for high school graduates to ensure a successful future. Colleges offer specialized learning that when attended can open many opportunities. Two colleges I may attend after high school are Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) or California Institute of Technology (Caltech). After college I plan to choose a career in the field of engineering. Two career possibilities are Aerospace Engineering or Biomedical Engineering. By researching these two universities and two possible careers, I have learned about the many possibilities that lie ahead for my future.
My education and work experience have been great preparation for a career in this field. Engineering, by nature, requires strong analytical and problem solving skills. Even outside the classroom, I have learned to look at a situation and break it down systematically. Sometimes when a direct solution is not possible, an optimal alternative or repurpose is appropriate. For example, I worked
For most of high school, whether I should study business or engineering muddled my college search. I have always had the people skills of a successful salesman or businessman; however, I also understand the importance of learning a technical skill in one’s professional success. I finally chose the engineering school at Texas A&M because, among other factors, the challenge of learning the upper level math and science required to earn a degree here piqued my interest.
I currently have several skills in many aspects in the field of engineering. Most of these skills are in the area of computer science with languages such as Java, C#, HTML, and JavaScript. Throughout my current exposure, I have learned engineering has several different possibilities in terms of choosing a major to focus in, and a career to pursue but have never completely experienced how each of these areas are learned or applied into real world applications. My goal is to discover what aspect of engineering would best be applicable for the strengths and abilities I have so that I am able to focus most of my ability into that specific area so that I can greatly excel by working on exactly what I need to in order to flourish in this career field.
My larger vision is becoming a biomedical engineer. What interests me most about the field is the intricate combination of two seemingly opposite characteristics. Engineers are sometimes seen as people who are on an elevated level of intelligence, but a below average sense of interpersonality. As a Biomedical Engineer, you are required to interact closely with patient. It’s impossible to complete a job without getting to know a patient. You have to identify their ailment or whatever else may be troubling them, and incorporate different levels of math, science, and technology to resolve the issue at
2011, I joined as an internee Engineer at hydel power station in mianwali, I was young new internee and focused and I was accepting new challenges so that I could make my future bright through skills. Engineers always involve in critical thinking and decision making processes, during annual overhauling of the power house equipment I was being assigned to involve in workers and get it done in 1 month, I got worried being an internee to make such an arrangement among employees always difficult to get the job done, however, my high school science fair exhibition in 2004 had given me idea to settle any situation requires strategic plan, available workforce lastly proper execution, therefore, I gathered all field staff at one point in the canteen
In conclusion, I have found recently my given choice of what I would choose, as a future choice of study mainly as autonomy. This choice would be related to engineering, due to recent projects and opportunities I was given. Due to this it gave myself a spark of interest I would use to study and experiment in ways to change how we live so profusely in
It is important to strengthen and clarify goals because in doing so, it is easier to identify why these goals are of importance to you thus making yourself more likely to achieve them. In order to strengthen and clarify my goals, I have to recognize the rewards and benefits of an engineering profession. I am aware that success in engineering study will enhance the quality of my life through a variety of rewards, benefits and opportunities. Rewards and opportunities of an engineering career include but are not limited to job security, the respect that comes with the title
Goals are an essential part of life that allows an individual to be in real action mode. The act of goal setting is the first step in the pursuit of becoming a world-class engineer. Goal setting is crucial to any
This quote from Carol Dweck (Professor of Psychology at Stanford University) has inspired me the way I go about in my life. The belief in continuous learning with the optimistic approach towards hard work, learning and doggedness has always been my motivation. My plans for a master’s degree are centered on the motive of productive research contribution in transportation engineering.
I have successfully earned a master’s degree in Industrial Engineering from SUNY, University at Buffalo in September 2013, which opened avenues for me and led me to my first full-time job. Since graduation, I’ve been on a ceaseless path of learning from working as a Quality Engineer for a small manufacturing company called HDM Hydraulics to where I am now as an R&D Quality Engineer for New Product Development at Medtronic. My academic pursuits continued even after starting
I have literally known what I want to be since I was a toddler. Of course, as a three-year old putting together Legos, I could not have verbalized that I want to be a mechanical engineer. However, it was at that time that I began to develop and use the skills that I will need for my desired career. I began to consider how parts went together and the different components necessary to build and sustain various systems. Part of the inspiration was the simple fun that I had while putting together these small toys, but part of my inspiration was my father. He was a maintenance turn-around coordinator at an oil refinery, which led to my own desire to work as a mechanical engineer in a refinery one day. As I grew older, my interest in mechanical engineering remained constant, though I expanded my interest beyond the oil refineries. In fact, after attending a pre-college program, Jackling Introduction to Engineering, offered by Missouri Science and Technology in Rolla, Missouri in the summer of 2011, I realized that engineering was the perfect way to exercise my curiosity and inventiveness in a constructive and productive manner.
Obstacles had never been obstructing my effort to succeed in life. As an engineer to be, it is important to me to be prepared for the hurdles in the real world. The world nowadays needs a person who could compete and has great abilities to stand on the same level as others. Multiple skills and critical opinion of an issue are essential for an engineer to jump into this challenging career. For me, a strategic planning and full preparation need to achieve the aim of being an expert engineer.
My whole life I have always wanted to become a successful engineer, and graduate from the University of Cincinnati. Some of my goals in life are to go to the University of Cincinnati. Another one of my goals is to become some type of engineer. But as of right now I would like to be a aerospace engineer. To be honest I really don’t know what influenced me to want to become and engineer. But something about engineering always appealed to me for some reason. But lately my engineering teacher has had a positive impact on me and is really making me like engineering and the overall field. So I guess that Mr. Smith has influenced me into being an engineer. My plan b is to be an engineer too. But this type of engineering would just be easier to
