Hi,
I am going to apply for a Master Degree. The admission requirement told me to make an essay about "your motivation for the MSc-programme of your choice". Hope to get a revision for my essay
Dear the Admissions committe member :
I reside in India, Asia. Living in a developed country gives me a lot of experiences and knowledge about how a country grows and developed in relation with their way of life and the society's cultural behavior
.
My name is Reentee. I was born in 1986 in Mumbai, India and spent most of my times in Agra. I study Architecture in NDH University, India and I will be getting my bachelor's degree in April 2009. New Delhi, Agra, and Bombay are three Indian's big cities that each has their own problems. The two major problems are an extreme density and unhealthy environments. These problems are very common in developing countries. In big cities, technology grows in a rapid way, and people find it easier to access informations. A better quality of life has trigger a lot of urbanizations that has made an uncontrolled city's growth. A slow management of the city does not come in a line with these growths
New Delhi, where I pursue my bachelor degree, has influenced me a lot in the ways to design a city. Looking further back into this city's history, I managed to know that New Delhi was designed to be a residential area, where people could spent their leisure time, and not as a commercial area . This city had small and organic streets. However, nowadays each year there are too many new facilities requests and the people itselves are getting to diverse, making a slight change in the first city concept that are now not appropriate anymore to be implemented. Despite the facts that the city council government has tried their best to rearrange this city, people find it very difficult now to find a comfortable place to live. This is such a pitty, remembering that actually New Delhi has a huge potency because of several reasons, such as geographical location, its cultural and tradition, and also the communities' unique characteristic.
When I was a child, I used to read a lot of magazines and books about architecture. The interest becomes bigger during my adolescence. I had a habit to visit old cities that has colonial ruins. I also liked so much to travel to small cities or to rural areas in India. It gives me a better picture about the identity of a region and the relation between the community, culture, and architecture. For instance, to Agra. This area is habited by marginal community, however the design are very tidy and chic, not as some other marginal society places. Other cases, some of the open areas in Calcutta, a city with an extremely high temperature, are not too useful because of its unappropriate design although it indeed influence the society to interact with each other. I join students diving club during my undergraduate study, in India Diving spot are simply designed whereas this places are potential to be a tourist object dan India has many excellent diving spot.
I once had an experience in doing an internship in Bangalore Architect, an architectural consultant based in bangalore, India. This company do some works in resort and residence designing. Being involved in this company for two months, helped me in elaborating my designing capabilities, conceptualization, and also to learn about new materials in architectural and construction using bamboo. I visited the Linda Garland's worksop and John Hardy's workshop in Ubud, Bali, Indonesia. I implemented those material in a layout-design and made a maquette model. In 2008, I also had an internship in Vastu Architecture Consultant in Mumbai. Working in this company gave me a broader knowledge in using several softwares such as Autocad, Sketchup, Photoshop, and Coreldraw. Not only learnt to design, I was also involved in the interaction with the clients and contractors, field analysis, and how to make a desicion.
After graduating from the Master degree program, I will comeback to India, and use my knowledge and experiences to build my country. I will also work in a government institution or even in a private firm such as Mumbai Urban Design Study Center, an architecture consultant that focuses in city designing and planning in India. My dream is to have my own property firm , looking at the facts that there are too many potencies in India that has not been explored, and also to create a working field for Indians.
