SoP for master in chemical science?

Pursuing knowledge is a great philosophy of my life and dedicating myself to this journey would be all the better meaningful efforts for me which I've contributed to the humanity. In my childhood I am embraced with the definite dream of becoming a scientist. When I was at University have plan to catch up the master degree, after then surge for doctorate degrees continually, but just after the graduation of my bachelor degree in chemical engineering and technology from xxx University in the summer of year 2008, because of my families economical conditions and their requests onto me, I am unable to continue the further higher education, so I was worked three years till now in different areas such as database, software development and mechanical engineering, even involved in businesses for a while to complete overseas project in China and introducing new technology into Kazakhstan successfully, and that wide range of working experience lends me to recognize again that the necessary and the importance of the pursuing knowledge - the great philosophy. In these years, my purpose for join this master's program in Chemical Science seems to have grown on me with more intensive process over time and set the heartfelt desire for my goal to become a true seeker of knowledge in my field, and, of course, at first step it welcomes by master degree. Goals will not progress by simply thinking about them; action generates success, when creating goals, find ways to make them happen. I m interested in expanding my professional horizons by seeking new challenges in the area of chemical science, so I wish to join the graduate program at xxx University for a Master of Chemical Science, and I now feel that I would be an excellent student here at xxx University.

this is first paragraph of my SoP for master degree for chemical science.

plz, help me to review it, add change etc. plz, guide me to write better SoP.

thanks.

Hi, thank you very much.

i am very different one. that i am graduate with bachelor degree in chemical engineering and technology in 2008, but after graduation i have never been worked in chemical or related fields, so i can not write some current research topics. i worked on java software and mechanical and business fields.

now how should i write my SoP with this conditions. never worked in chemical after bachelor graduation.
i am very in need of help.

thanks.

That's okay! It is not necessary to have experience. I am interested in your PLAN. the most important thing is to be specific about your PLAN OR THE FUTURE.

But also, you CAN write about current research topics in your field! All you need to do is read the recent articles. If you can find great articles to read, you can jump right into the conversation with all the scholars at the forefront of your field.

I'm glad you are practicing here with us! Go find a great, recent research article that interests you... and take inspiration from it when you work on the SOP.

hello,

thank you very much.

i am currently no any research topics related to chemical field, can you show or point me to some SoPs here or links to review which i want...?

thank you!

Well, I was thinking of this sort of thing: sciencedirect.com/science/bookseries/00652377

If you were a professor teaching chem engineering, you would need to know the most recent developments in the field.
As a scholar, you likewise need to know the recent developments.

I think you should search google for something like this: advances, chemical engineering, list

The point is to read as much as you can about what accomplishments people have been making recently. Show the reader of your SOP that you are already actively reading all about what is going on in the field right now.

:-)

thank you very much.

i got some idea.

Sop for Masters degree in CHEMICAL SCIENCE

Hello,

this my final SoP essay for Masters degree in CHEMICAL SCIENCE. and hope the SoP experts to correct my essay.

add, remove, edit.
i add my internship activities.

thank you very much. here it is.

STATEMENT OF PURPOSE - Masters degree in CHEMICAL SCIENCE

I am seriously interested in Chemistry from the time when I was a schoolboy, my interest in chemistry originated from my chemistry teacher who was now retired and he teach us chemistry with specific manner, and we always prefer his chemistry class. I always discussed with him about the contents of the lesson. Impressed by my passion in chemistry, he emphasizes me to study chemistry at University. With his encouragement, I studied chemistry professional at University.

With good high school scores, I entered the xxxxx University - one of the best educational institutions for Chemistry in xxxxx Country. By July 2008, I had completed 5 years of undergraduate studies and received a University Diploma. In our Chemistry and Chemical Engineering Department students are required not only to take undergraduate courses, including chemical engineering, but also to carry out research(internship) in one of the major oil-chemical industry factories or research centers in xxxxx Country or at the University. Just after graduation because of my family's economic conditions and their requests unto me that I am unable to continue my higher education, so I worked three years in different areas of work such as database, software development and mechanical engineering. I was even involved in businesses for a while to complete an overseas project in China and introduce a new technology into Kazakhstan. That wide range of working experiences lends me to recognize again that the importance of continue my studies on chemistry to further higher degrees and expand my vision of horizon in chemistry field, in addition plus my passion to earn high education level in chemistry and accomplish valuable research work. The main goal of my future education is to gain valuable research experience and deepen my knowledge of chemistry. I have chosen xxxxx University because it provides excellent opportunities to pursue research in various areas of chemistry.

(Internship 1)
In July 2004, during the internship in Metalwork plant of xxxxx University, I have practiced the welding techniques such as MIG welding, TIG welding and Arc welding and combined the theory with real welding process by that it helped me a lot to clarify these techniques to further depth. And we made metal hammer with given parameters and specifications of technical requirements which taught us for mechanical and engineering courses.

(Internship 2)
In 2005 I have been doing research work at the xxxxx Chemical Fertilizer Plant. My research for the most part is related to areas of chemical fertilizer such as urea and others. My studying topic was the production of urea and ammonia. The ammonia and urea manufacturing facilities are separate, so each has its own utilities. Firstly, I synthesized and analyzed the ammonia manufacturing process known as the Haber process in which nitrogen and hydrogen react in the presence of an iron catalyst to form ammonia. Secondly, I am turned to urea manufacturing process which includes two equilibrium reactions of ammonia with carbon dioxide and one undesired biuret (NH2CONHCONH2) formation reaction. During the research I look into every production steps of urea such as synthesis, purification, concentration and granulation. As a result of this work, I founded a great knowledge base for the producing processes of one of the most important industrial product - solid chemical fertilizer.

(Internship 3)
In summer 2007, I instructed to carry research in the field of oil refinery at xxxxx Petrochemical Company. My second project concerned this sprawling industrial process plant where crude oil is processed and refined into more useful petroleum products, such as gasoline, diesel fuel, and asphalt base, heating oil, kerosene, and liquefied petroleum gas. The research work not only brings me a great deal of experience and the research ability, but more importantly, strengthened my knowledge and passion for chemical engineering field.

(Final year project)
Moreover, importantly that my final year project "Low pressure system process calculation for the production of annually 520,000 tons urea plant with Stamicarbon carbon dioxide stripping process", was includes the basic overview of urea production techniques, the technical procedures and features of the urea plant's vaporizing extract process, analysis of stripping process and technological conditions. Carry on material balance for high-low systems of plant, and heat balance of low pressure system. The project done offered great insight into theoretical calculation of chemical engineering and engineering principles.

I wish to pursue my graduate studies at your esteemed institution, as I believe that a Masters degree will help me to realize my ultimate goal, which is to develop myself as a well trained chemical science and establish a career in the chemical industry. The main goal of my future education is to gain valuable research experience and deepen my knowledge of chemical science, after completing of master degree step into earn a PhD.

Throughout my academic year, I have studied very hard through the five years in college and have build up a well-rounded background not only in Chemistry, but also in other areas including Mathematics, Physics, Computer and Biology. And I have various research interests, but the major area in which I would like to specialize, if I will be accepted at your graduate school, is Nano-materials synthesis or Membrane science directions. I hope that my future work will be beneficial for the University and myself. I am very interested in attaining a Master degree from xxxxx University.

I am seriously interested in Chemistry and have been since I was a schoolboy. My interest in chemistry originated...

... from my chemistry teacher who was now retired and he teach us chemistry with specific manner, and we always prefer his chemistry class. This part does not help. You do not need to tell the reader he is retired or that you preferred his class. The reader does not need to know that stuff. Concentrate on one thing: your theme.

What is YOUR theme? What is the interesting idea that inspires you?

I'll change emphasize to encourage. Impressed by my passion in chemistry, he emphasizes encouraged me to study chemistry at University. With his encouragement, I studied chemistry professional at University.--I also put it in the past tense.

I have chosen xxxxx University because it provides excellent opportunities to pursue research in various areas of chemistry.--This is not specific enough. The reader is like a little child. You have to tell the child a story. You have to give the reader one interesting idea in the introduction paragraph, and delight the reader by keeping that idea in every paragraph. What is the most fascinating idea in chemistry? :-)

I wish to pursue my graduate studies at your esteemed institution, as I believe that a Masters degree will help me to realize my ultimate goal, which is to develop myself as a well trained chemical science and establish a career in the chemical industry. ---You wrote this in a very impressive, professional way. Yet, I still wish you would be more specific and discuss YOUR unique research interests, and what you intend to DO in this field. What is important to you? Give the reader your best idea... share it with her.

Hi, EF_Kevin

thank you, for your help. and add only those changes is OK? thanks.
AND
YOUR theme? plz, could you give me an example? i am very new here. thank you.
