Undergraduate / "Quaecumque Sunt Vera" - this Northwestern motto represents the way that I aim to live my life [4]
Not sure if I talk about myself enough or if I have a clear thesis. Thanks!
What are the unique qualities of Northwestern - and of the specific undergraduate school to which you are applying - that make you want to attend the University? In what ways do you hope to take advantage of the qualities you have identified? (300 word maximum)
"Quaecumque Sunt Vera", the motto of Northwestern University, represents the way that I aim to live my life. I would like the truth to guide my future and aid my aspirations to have a positive impact on the world. At Northwestern University, the ethic and drive of both students and staff are a model for future leaders of the world. As an aspiring bioengineer, the McCormick School of Engineering and Applied Science seems like the ideal place to be. With existing research in regenerative medicine and biomechanics, as well as summer research at the NU Physical Sciences-Oncology Center, McCormick provides me with the opportunities to satisfy my hunger for a hands-on approach and real world impact. The opportunity to collaborate with highly respected professors and professionals such as Dr. Matthew Tresch, whose work with biomechanics has peaked my interest, further attract me to McCormick. In addition to research, the Co-op program can aid me in giving me a real world taste of the bioengineering field.
In addition to the opportunities in bioengineering, the atmosphere at Northwestern is unparalleled. The aspects of an intellectual college town, on the shore of a beautiful body of water, within arm's reach of a world class city, Evanston is the place to be. The student community and traditions appeal to my interests. Whether, it is painting The Rock or participating in Mayfest, the traditions at Northwestern give the school its unique identity that I seek to be a part of. I also plan to seek out multicultural organizations such as the Om-Hindu Cultural Council to keep in touch with my roots. The McCormick School of Engineering and Applied Sciences is the perfect place for me to be a part of a community that will provide me with the opportunities needed to positively impact the world.
