Scholarship / As a cutting edge field in the 21st century biotechnology is in the spotlight today. KGSP STUDY PLAN [7]

@Holt please check it now to see where i get it wrong please identify the paragraph that is wrong...this thing is not easy to write thank you

In this 21st century, the cutting edge biotechnology has been in the spotlight as it has been used to improve the quality of our lives in almost every aspect from health, industry, environment to agriculture. Thus my goal is to equip myself with basic skills and advance techniques in biotechnology research particularly genetic engineering where I can enhance and broaden my knowledge in gene manipulation. Also I will use my expertise to integrate biotechnology techniques into agricultural and environmental development in ********

Biotechnology includes an array of tools for introducing or deleting a particular gene or genes to produce organisms with novel traits; this type of genetic manipulation is termed as genetic engineering.

Genetic engineering has the potential to help increase production and productivity in agriculture by improving or developing disease resistance crops and controlling the environmental factors, this offers new opportunities for solving agricultural problems as an average 26% of the worldwide crop production is lost each year due to pre-harvest pest and pathogens (oerke, 2006).

In particular I'm fascinated by genetic engineering because I find it exceedingly interesting how manipulating single gene could affect the entire characteristics and behavior of an organism.

Therefore In the course of my study I would like to research on how different methods in genetic engineering could be use to manipulate genetic makeup of crops to improve its nutritional content, disease resistance and yield.

From my research, the university have a well equipped labs doing research in my related research interest such as plant pathology lab, molecular plant pathology lab etc therefore I plan to, with the guide and help of my professors to carry out a research on improving and developing disease-resistant crops using agrobacterium filtration technique (agrofiltration) to prevent pathogens attack.

Agrofiltration is now a versatile, rapid and simple technique widely used for transient gene expression which is used in molecular plant pathology for the expression of plant resistance. This technique is used to induce transient expression of genes in a plant or isolated leave from a plant. To express this gene in a plant it does not have to be stably integrated into the genome. This technique is simple and straight forward procedure the most time consuming step is the cloning of transgene construct into a vector for transient delivery into the plant cells, the vector is commonly harbored in agrobacterium cells and Infiltration can be carried out directly or indirectly with needless syringe. Once inside the leaf the agrobacterium remains in the intercellular space and transfers the gene of interest as part of Ti plasmid derived from T-DNA in a high copy numbers into the plant.

Considering ******with low agricultural productivity thus eventually my research is expected to create maximum agricultural productivity as crops disease is one out of many problems affecting agricultural production.

Plant genetic engineering is critical aspect of biotechnology therefore I will concentrate fully both in theoretical, practical and research aspect, regularly studying to get the best academic result. I will put great emphasize in research to explore innovative ideas with my professors and colleague.

My choice of Chonnam University comes from the fact that the university is highly ranked in terms of scientific research and projects. Considering this advancement of the university which align with my interest especially in terms of ongoing project on crops pest control and resistant to disease, drought and other environmental factor I believed I will get the best of everything needed to excel in my research interest as well as academics and future career.

KGSP STUDY PLAN goal of study, topic of research and detailed study plan, also future plan
This is my draft for study plan for kgsp

my passion towards human development and nation building



Study Plan
As a cutting edge field in the 21st century biotechnology is in the spotlight today, it has been used to improve the quality of our lives in almost every aspect from health, industrial, environmental and agricultural. Thus my goal is to equip myself with basic skills and advance techniques in biotechnology research particularly genetic engineering where I can enhance and broaden my knowledge in gene manipulation. Also will use my expertise to integrate biotechnology techniques into agricultural and environmental development in *******and Africa as a whole.

Biotechnology includes an array of tools for introducing or deleting a particular gene or genes to produce organisms with novel traits; this type of genetic manipulation is term as genetic engineering.

Genetic engineering has the potential to help increase production and productivity agriculture as well as control of disease resistant and environmental effect, this offer new opportunity for solving agricultural problems especially in ********. However the depth of my interest in biotechnology as a whole is paramount but in particular fascinated by genetic engineering because I find it exceedingly interesting how manipulating single gene could affect the entire characteristics and behavior of an organism.

Therefore In the course of my study I would like to research on how different methods in genetic engineering could be use to manipulate genetic makeup of a crops hence will focus on improving the nutritional content , disease resistant and yield of a variety of crops for better benefit.

Considering my country with low agricultural productivity that mostly depends on high exportations of foreign agricultural produced thus eventually my research is expected to create maximum agricultural productivity with better yield, nutritional value and vitamins which could help in tackling blindness due to lack of vitamins A.

Plant genetic engineering is critical aspect of biotechnology therefore I will concentrate fully both in theoretical, practical and research aspect, regularly studying to get the best academic result. I will put great emphasize in research to explore innovative ideas with my professors and colleague.

My choice of ********University comes from the fact that the university is highly ranked in terms of scientific research and projects. Considering this advancement of the university which align with my interest especially in terms of ongoing project on crops pest control and resistant to disease, drought and other environmental factor e I believed I will get the best of everything needed to excel in my research interest as well as academics and future career.

FUTURE PLAN
The depth of my passion towards human development and nation building is central to everything I do therefore after completing my program I plan to transfer knowledge gained in an optimized manner to my home country and Africa at large which will only happen through public service which I will make myself available to it. Also creating international network of expertise and professional for positive partnership in Korea and across borders that will support to enhance capacity building in biotechnological industry in my home country and the world, this will improve international understand and strengthen relationships between Korea and *******. I will also do further my studies in related field learning more professional skills and gain more knowledge needed to succeed in my field of endeavors.

@Holt
this is where is confusing me about this choice of university ,the familiarity you talked about
You need to show a familiarity with the university and the course you wish to study. What makes this university better than the others either in your country or in Korea, that offers the same degree? What about the university tells you that your interests will best be served there? Is it because of their academic program? Their internships? Certain research in the field being done at the university? What makes it an extra special opportunity for you to study there?

I have the zeal, commitment and dedication



I was born on 1st October 1990 into considering middle classs family, unfortunately my father passed away when I was just four (4) years old. My mother began to struggle for survival and to send us to school as she always wanted us to be part of a great place of learning. Therefore I began my primary school at early age in LEA Makera Model Primary school after which I successfully passed the common entrance and proceeded to secondary school in the year 2003. As someone who is fascinated by science I began to read science related researched articles, journals and books where I became more interested in biology. While in school I began petty jobs to earn extra money for my school fees and also to help my mother. Successfully I graduated averagely and scored the highest mark in biology. Since then I became more interested in studying biology as a diverse field to study life.

In the year 2009 having graduated from my secondary school I struggle to make more money to pursue my dreams in the university but my income wasn't enough which I planned to continue saving in order to push myself towards my goal. In 2010 I applied to Kaduna state university having passed all the necessary exams successfully; I was accepted to study Biology in Biological science department. Life in the university is too complicated as I want to excelled, I began to organize tutor classes, spending much time in the library reading and researching on my field of interest.

Life for me is to support and help those of need therefore as a passionate young man that always want to help people of less privileged and orphans I co-found an association of youth in my locality to contribute and uplift such vulnerable children in terms of welfare and education, also participated in various humanitarian services within my state and Nigeria at large, one of them was sustainable development goals (SDGS) during my mandatory one (1) service to my country; as a member I moved from one society to another to enlighten and educate children of poor background. Currently participating in voluntary teaching within my locality, I hope one day my effort in touching people's life will yield a positive outcome.

While in the university I was attached to Kaduna South plant and Water Works as water treatment officer to broaden my experience, also I was exposed to various biotechnological background such as molecular biology, genetics, bio-technique, breeding, biochemistry of amino acid and lab, physical chemistry, computer science and mathematics all these make me developed interest in biotechnology.

The urge to contribute to human development, nation building and science in general motivates me towards biotechnology as it affects almost every aspect of human life ranging from agriculture, health, industry and importantly environment.

Additionally it will be an amazing experience to live in a new environment with different culture especially Korea which is bestowed with distinct and unique multicultural background and heritage. Studying in Korea is my dream which I hope will come true. As a science thriving country which have a vision in biotechnology that led to the government adopting policies such as bio-vision 2016 which aimed to achieve a goal of making Korea a biotechnology leader in health life and prosperous bio-economy, Korea Research Institute of Bioscience & Biotechnology (KRIBB) which was established in 1984, Also Korea has a commitment to promote biotechnology since from 1990s when the government established basic plan for the promotion of biotechnology in 1994 (Biotech 2000:1994-2007). Korea was ranked 25th in 2007 in the world in terms of clinical trials which led to the establishment of Korea National Enterprises for Clinical Trials (KoNECT).

After thorough researched I found Chonnam University to be one of the leading universities in Korea with many facilities and biotech research centers, the university recognized biotechnology as a key and solution to many agricultural, health and environmental problems.

International students are at increasing rate, it will be an extraordinary opportunity for me to interact with students and scholars from diverse professional and cultural background in your prestigious institution, this interaction and exposure is vital for the integration of diverse ideas and understanding of several global issues. I believed being in your University will enhance my career and would give me the basic frame work to utilize my full potential.

Finally I consider myself to be of good conduct if given the opportunity as I have the zeal, commitment and dedication to make the most out of this scholarship program.

Once again I am highly grateful for considering my application and I look forward to better reply.
THANK YOU.
