letter of Motivation
Can you please check my letter for content, I would be grateful for any suggestions.
I am writing to express my interest in the Chemical Engineering program at Stipendium Hungaricum.
As far as I can remember, school has always been easy for me. However, it changed after I went to middle school, where I faced two new subjects - physics and chemistry. These two were the first courses that ever mentally challenged me. I was astonished by the flow of information that comes from these subjects and the thing that made them unique was the fact that they included not only theoretical knowledge but also a real-life example of application. My natural curiosity and desire to explore and analyze enhanced this enthusiasm, and one thing that fascinated me the most was the fact that the more you studied, the less sense it made. This made it even more interesting to study. So, my passion for both physics and chemistry led to my choice of Chemical Engineering.
The wide range of career perspectives and the opportunity to contribute to society through technological innovation are one of the main attractions of chemical engineering for me. I perceive engineering as a course that is not just solving the problems of modernity but as a direction that improves and replaces already working systems. Yet I understand that I do not have the ability to create something completely new, however; I believe that I can improve the existing systems. For instance, while working at the plant, I was able to propose a plan to improve the current system of transporting materials, which lead to more efficient production. My motto is "Just because something works does not mean that it cannot be improved". My homeland lags in many areas, like technology, science, and education in comparison with developed countries. Thus, my goal is to expand on these areas using knowledge gained in your institution. I have planned to advance our energy sector as well as the production of high technologies
In high school, I continued my way to becoming an engineer. My first steps towards this were my participation in various conferences and project works. I have done a project about anxiety watches which are supposed to save people's lives in an emergency. Furthermore, last two seasons I engaged in the work environment in a company called "Company Name", I feel like this experience allowed me to truly experience what it is like to be among engineers, and I realized the peculiarities and subtleties of the engineering profession. By accomplishing tasks on regular basis, I have built diligence and commitment.
I would like to become a Chemical Engineer because in the future I want to produce new materials and technology that will cope with current issues. For example, I tried to create plastic, which is organically depletable, but I failed. Nevertheless, I do not despair and have plans to integrate economically viable alternative fuels in COUNTRY, and I would like to do some research on auto-assembling molecules. To achieve my broader goals, the scholarship would be a great help because of financial support. I would be more focused on my study and research. Also, I would be provided with greatly equipped labs and facilities that hopefully help with the applied part of the research. Moreover, studying in a diverse cultural country with a rich historical past would make my life much more saturated with adventure. Studying with people all around the world will also be beneficial because I will interchange knowledge about various cultures and broaden my horizons. Surely, I am going to encounter some problems due to the language barrier, new people, and different environments, however, I feel like, by virtue of my flexibility and social skills, I would be able to quickly adapt and make new friends. Along with that, I have plans to work so I can cover up my monetary problems.
Overall, I believe I could demonstrate myself as an individual suitable for program due to my academic background and strong motivation to study. Thanks for your time and consideration.
