Undergraduate / I have been interested in computers and other electrical devices;TOPIC OF MY CHOICE [4]

Instructions: Topic of my choice.

Three score and seven years ago, the first all-purpose computer was invented. Ever since then computers have quickly become the main backbone behind much of the world's growth and the global community. Try to imagine a world without computers. No televisions or video games, no mobile phones, or no power. It's rather scary, isn't it? Our world and society depend on computers in almost every aspect of our daily activities. Whether it be arts and entertainment, health, science, or even medicine; computers help, not only people communicate, but as well as other things communicate with one another. Computer scientists have introduced a tremendous number of innovations in order to improve the quality of life and to meet our human needs.

For many years, I have been inquisitive about computers and other electronic devices. My interest in pursuing computer science comes from several different factors which have influenced me greatly. First, I have been exposed to technology throughout my entire life. Living in the twenty-first century, almost everything is, or can be done electronically. Second, I am extremely fascinated by how things work, how they can be improved, and how to make them easier to use. Through the study of computer science, it will allow me to adequately satisfy my interests and curiosity. A third factor which has affected my interest in computer science is change. I admire the fact that there is always going to be something new in the world of technology. Computers and technology is changing every day and will continue to change forever.

Through pursuing computer science, I will not only have the opportunity to learn and fulfill my interests, but also be able to help and enlighten those around me. From around the age of 10, when I was able to get a computer running by myself, I have been extremely engaged and involved with computers and technology of that sort. This experience gave me self confidence and has taught me that even at a young age, nothing is impossible, as long as I put my mind to it and believe in myself.

I believe computer science is an excellent specialty. I am immensely eager to enter the field of computer science. I would like to find a program that offers the opportunity to study and learn in a well-structured and well-administered environment with professors who love to teach. Further, I need the right fit for my training, as I seek to become a skillful software developer, and become a great addition to the computer science field. I need a program that will allow me to combine both my personal and professional goals into a successful career. I am confident that my past experiences, along with a thorough academic education, will enable me to pursue my interest in a successful career in computer science.
