Growing up, Math and science were always my favorite subjects. This led me to desire a career that incorporates these two subjects. As I furthered my education, I discovered I was very interested in engineering. Being able to learn new things and apply that new knowledge is something I have always enjoyed doing. The high job market, life flexibility, financial security and social impact are all reasons I have chosen to pursue a career in software engineering. One reason I want to be an engineer is I enjoy that kind of work. Problem solving is one major part of engineering, and something I have always enjoyed doing. If I enjoy the work I do, engineering will fell much less like a “job”, and make it much more enjoyable. I always knew I never wanted to have to wake up every morning to go to a job I hated. With engineering, I am …show more content…
Currently, engineers are needed in all parts of the world. Being able to find a job easier will reduce a great deal of stress that may come with other careers. On top of that, because engineers are need all over the world, it is a great way to be able to travel. Although it may not be as relaxing is taking a vacation and traveling, it would still be a great opportunity to see the world. For these reasons, I am motivated to pursue a career in the engineering field. For me, the most important attribute for being an engineer is life flexibility. Seeing the life flexibility my mother has with her engineering job showed me how critical flexibility is. Anytime there was an emergency, my mother was always able to make herself available due to the flexibility of her job. My mother is also able to do the majority of her work from home. Having the flexibility to be able to work from home is another reason life flexibility is on the top of my list. Overall, having a flexible job is very important to me, and the flexibility of engineering is one reason I am drawn to that
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.
I have chosen to pursue a career in computer science, because it has been a heavy influence on me throughout my life. All my life I have been surrounded by technology, almost more than half of my family has a career in the IT field, which is what sparked my interest. My earliest memory of when I first became interested was when I was about 6 and my mother bought me a phonics dog, and I was more interested in how it worked rather than what it did. I then saw the screw bolts and knew if I used a screwdriver I could see the inside of the toy so I opened it, and from then on I knew I was interested in technology. In middle school was when I first took my actual dive into the IT world and I learned there are different computer languages, and about different devices used in the tech world. Also I
When I decided to become an engineer, I thought hard on what that entailed. I saw myself working on hands on projects with a skill and proficiency that I could truly be proud of. That's why after listening to the presentation for Manufacturing and Mechanical Engineering Technology in my freshman year here at Texas A&M I knew that this major was the best fit for me. The mentioning of learning how to manufacture and produce things from conception to finished product was very exciting to me. I also appreciate that the education is very application oriented rather than just teaching theoretical content. I feel that this directly prepares one for a future career in industry and this sense of job security is what really attracted me to this engineering
It's important to me that I study and work with something that's real, rather than subjective. When I first started to look at career paths, I found that my biggest concern was making sure that I will be able to make an impact on the world that I can feel proud of. Engineering is the field that most appeals to me in that I would be creating or refining real, tangible things, and that those things would have real, positive effects on people's lives. I know that engineering is a great opportunity to work with others and combine my strengths with other engineers, as well as people from various other
Money and fame do not motivate my goals. Engineering in all forms is a field of innovation and invention. Aspirations of any great engineer should be to introduce to the world a new idea, product, or service that will make people happier and the environment safer. Success in these challenges is a reward greater than any dollar amount or public recognition. Engineers bring societies to new levels of civilization through their advancements in technology and discovery. The challenge to provide people with ever-increasing standards while at the same time feeding the population with ideas of what could be attracts my imagination, intelligence, and curiosity far more
In five years, I can see myself in an engineering job that involves travel. Whether it be between company locations, or working with various customers, I want to see the world from a business point of view. I chose my field of study, Plastics Engineering, because the “Plasti-van” informed me it was an option. From a young age I knew I wanted to be an engineer, but in tenth grade the “Plasti-van” came to my school and did a presentation about polymer engineering. It was that day that I fell in love with plastics and knew it was what I wanted to study.
In life, it is important to have an goal. My ultimate goal is to make the greatest impact I can in everything that I do. After completing a degree in mechanical engineering I ultimately want to pursue a career in the field of prosthetics, specifically for military amputees. As many members of my family and friends are military members, I have witnessed the sadness and despair that comes along with the loss of a limb and know that many wish to the battlefield and continue to serve this country despite their disability. I am eager to develop a combat capable prosthetic that would allow military amputees to return to the fight in similar or better condition as before their injury. This technology would also be practical to military members and civilians who wish to return some normalcy to their physical movement.
Computer hardware engineers research, develop, and test computer systems and components such as processors, circuit boards, memory devices, and many more (Bureau of Labor Statistics). They design new computer hardware, create blueprints of computer equipment to be built. Test the completed models of the computer hardware that they design. Update existing equipment so that it will work will new software. Oversee the manufacturing process for the computer hardware. Maintain knowledge of computer engineering trends and new technology(Bureau of Labor Statistics).
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
Engineering is an exciting field that I believe will be enjoyable, challenging, and above all, intuiting to undertake at university. I believe pursuing engineering means exceeding your expectations and making a
My true passion for engineering began when I came across the quote: "Technology are devices that make our lives better". Despite my first love of mathematics, my recent interest for engineering has come from two major influences. The first being my mathematics and physics teachers, both engineers by nature, who have helped me enhance the fundamental skills essential for engineering and embrace the importance of the field. The second being the learning about uses of technology in Computer Science, it taught me the magnitude of which technology contributes to our everyday lives has led me to intensify my desire to improve the lives of others.
Finding out how and why things work and discovering how products are made has always my passion. I regularly watch engineering and science shows on the television. From my childhood, I have always been a very curious person who would not believe just because someone told me, but I had to know the reason behind it. Science always fascinated me, and I always wondered how we remained on the ground and never fell off something that is spherical. In school I was more interested in maths and science rather than History or Arts and this made me choose Chemistry, maths and physics as my Higher subjects. This has helped me appreciate how Science has been utilised to improve man’s life and make it easier. It is because of this that I would like to
Being a Software Engineer is more than just programming. It’s a chance to help other people through the power of technology.

Software Engineering is an expanding occupation, which means that more and more jobs are opening up for this position everyday. Also, one of the perks of this job is how much money you make. Software Engineering is a good job because, the market is expanding for it, it pays well, and this job can help other people.
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
