Letters / Writing a motivational letter to study Computer Science and Engineering at KOC University Turkey [3]

MOTIVATIONAL LETTER

Over the course of human existence, our ability to create and innovate new opportunities is one of the main reasons humans have evolved from the stone age to the light (Jet) age. I have always sought to continue this trend in innovation by combining creativity with current scientific knowledge in the field of Computer engineering. My interest in this field drove me to pursue a study in Physics Electronics, which has greatly enhanced my ability to not only recognize the need for new innovation around me but also how to address those needs. Through this master's program in Computer Science and Engineering, I will be able to take my knowledge and skills in the field of Computer Engineering to the next level.

The major reason I'm applying for this program is to continue my studying and boost my knowledge and skills in creativity and innovation in the field of computer engineering and I hope to become one of the leading experts in this field. With the rapid growth in ICT development and innovation in the world today, (for instance, the introduction of 5G Network) the need for computer engineers cannot be overemphasized, and I believe that KOC University is the perfect place to achieve this goal.

During the last four years, I have worked as an IT Support Engineer in various organizations in Nigeria. My role encompasses everything from Computer engineering to Network design, applications, implementation, and system troubleshooting. I believe that my work experience in Computer and Networking engineering represents an advantage because I have learned to operate, configure and troubleshoot different kinds of computer and their applications, for this reason, I have managed to integrate myself in a team where each member could learn from the other without hesitation.

After graduating from this program, I wish to work in Turkey to use the skills grasped from KOC University to improve the Turkish ICT Sector, and then upon returning to my home country Nigeria, I will also work with the State Government to enhance the Information and communication network system in the rural part of Nigeria by introducing the new and innovated skills learned from KOC University.

In addition to my desire to bolster my knowledge base with additional insight from my course work, I also hope to be able to engage with classmates to complete

team-based projects that will summon us to think critically and apply interdisciplinary ideas. Through the training, knowledge, and skills I will receive from this program, my expectation is to be prepared to take on an industrial level challenge in the nearest future and create (innovate) a permanent solution to the striking challenge of poor information and communication system in the rural part of Nigeria.

In regards to my extra-curriculum activities, I like listening to music, engaging in sporting activities like football competitions, traveling and surfing the internet. I appreciate the value of insistence, ambition, and team spirit. I have learned that commitment is a necessity for success.

Should you require further information, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Thank you for considering my application, and I look forward to your favorable reply.

Scholarship / How will you extend yourself beyond your studies to become actively involved in Irish society [2]

APPLYING FOR A SCHOLARSHIP - GOI-IES

2. As a GOI-IES Scholar, how will you extend yourself beyond your project/studies to become actively involved in Irish society in order to maximize your academic / cultural exchange experience and raise awareness of the GOI-IES scheme in Ireland and beyond? (15 marks) MAX 500 WORDS *

As a GOI-IES scholar I intend to take my studies to heart but I will also be actively involved in Irish society by engaging in the following activities.

Firstly, by being part of voluntary organizations like the Irish Red Cross, and engaging in activities like Blood donation (I believe giving blood is an easy way to save lives), Disaster relief, training, and certification in order to create awareness and save lives. Another prominent voluntary organization is the Catholic Guides of Ireland, being a devoted Roman Catholic I would like to join this organization and be part of the group of adult volunteers.

Secondly, by organizing free coaching classes for children. Everyone, at some point or another, had a coach and those that greatly impacted our lives. As a GOI-IES scholar, coaching and training kids at a tender age on the application and importance of science and technology is a significant way to invest in the future generation of Irish society in the Aspect of Science and Technology. However, combining practical knowledge from my working experience and skills acquired as a GOI-IES scholar I will effectively impact a basic knowledge of IT System Engineering on young talented minds.

In addition, to be highly involved in Irish society, I intend to participate in internship programs like the Dublin Internships to improve my knowledge and skills in Communication Engineering. Sports, being a player and a lover of football, I intend to join the TU Dublin Football team in other to engage in football competitions. Also, being part of the Student Union and engaging in campus social activities will be a considerable way to raise awareness of the GOI-IES scheme by means of social media, blogs, and vlogs, encouraging more talented minds to study in Ireland and thus contribute to the Irish economy
