MY ESSAY:
"Seek knowledge even as far as China". Those words has inspired me since I was in secondary school. There are two important points that interest me, namely education and experiencing different culture. It has been my obsession to broaden my knowledge both in academic terms and life experiences.
Currently I am enrolled in chemical engineering undergraduate program. My objective is to graduate with good result and enough experience so I can continue my study abroad. That is the main reason why I want to join this exchange program. I hope this program will give me excellent opportunity to experience live and study in other country. Moreover, USA has wide range of field of study as well as culture. Living and studying in different country with different culture when I am still an undergraduate student will be a good preparation for my graduate study.
Pursuing master degree abroad relates with my goals, i.e. to do some research in industrial process especially in bioprocess engineering. I live in a country rich of natural resources but our industries has not been fully developed. I also want to develop myself better by studying abroad. I want to be more mature, able to take care of myself, learn other culture, comprehend the value, know how people in another country live their life, and see what they think of people from outside their country as I do. I love to befriend other people from different culture and participate in various organization and activities as I have done now such as join the student union, be a committee of national plant design competition, and be a member of cultural club.
I have been worked hard to reach my goals, including learn English by myself without attend any course outside the school and have two part time jobs to fund my French course since I was eager to learn other language but my parents could not afford it. This financial problem was also almost prevent me from studying undergraduate program but I got a scholarship to support my study. However that does not mean my parents do not support my education. They always ensure me to have best education I can get even with our limited condition. This spirit goes with me since I was a child.
Type of program I want to pursue in USA is a bachelor degree chemical engineering program that allows me to follow courses as well as do laboratory works or participate in research, parallel with my current academic background and interests. I am interested in chemistry and its industrial application since I got a medal of chemistry in national science olympiad. It also will be a foundation for my future plans that are to be a process engineer and start an education foundation to provide education for student with financial difficulty.
