Undergraduate / DUKE - Why? If I became a Blue Devil... My love for photojournalism [3]
I would love feedback to ascertain whether I've answered the question coherently, directly, and well. The prompt is-
If you are applying to the Trinity College of Arts and Sciences as a first year applicant, please discuss why you consider Duke a good match for you. Is there something particular about Duke that attracts you? [150 MAX]
If I became a Blue Devil, I would construct my own proofs on vector analysis in 'Advanced Calculus I' from Professor Lenhard Ng, whose research on sympleptic geometry fascinates me. I would strive to take the Duke Putnam team to greater heights, attend lectures on Topology, and write a research project on the Geometry of Partial Differential Equations under Professor Robert Bryant through the PRUV Fellowship Program.
I will further my research on Game Theory by interacting with Professor Dan Ariely, whose book Predictably Irrational I devoured, and apply mathematical tools to economic theory in 'Game Theory with Application of Economics'. I will continue working on my projects on 'The Economics of Tourism' through the URS Independent Study Grants, and write my Honors Thesis on economic growth under Professor Charles Becker.
I will pursue my love for photojournalism by clicking photographs for The Chronicle and document each passing year for Chanticleer.
Feel free to be as harsh as possible:) Thank you!
