I have come to understand that the true test of knowledge is in its application.After my first year of undergraduate study at Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST), I undertook a project to solve a challenge in my hometown, Akim Oda in the Eastern part of Ghana. The main purpose of this project was to utilize agricultural drones for spraying rice farms to control pest infestation. Akim Oda is largely dominated by small-scale farmers, and a major challenge these farmers face is pest infestation and control. I found it intriguing to embark on this project by applying the knowledge I had acquired from my program of study to solve a communal problem. Seeing how this technology could solve a real problem for my community changed everything for me. It showed me that engineering is not just about theory but also about tangible impact. This experience sparked my interest in developing and building intelligent aerospace systems to solve real-world problems.
Agricultural drones and more - Introduction for my motivation letter
Are you applying for admission to a masters course? Or are you applying to continue your undergraduate studies as a scholar? I normally need to know what studies the essays are for so that I can offer the correct advice. The advice varies per level of study for completion. I can only offer you a general review in this case. It should be applicable to both types.
Since you already have the undergraduate personal experience for the motivation, you do not need to tell the whole story to the reviewer. Instead, you should summarize the event, indicate that this was your motivating factor, then lay the premise for your advanced studies. If you were able to apply this program successfully, indicate how you accomplished it, in a summarized form. From there, explain how the advanced studies will help you enter level 2 of your overall plan to help your community. Then proceed with your motivation discussion in the next paragraphs.
