Study Objectives - I would like to learn about polymers in an engineering context

Hello, guys

I am trying to get a scholarship program from Brazil to study in the USA. I have to write many essays and I want to know if someone could help me with this one. Probably, there are some gramatical mistakes and confusing lines, but I have to send it ultil sunday and I am a little desesperate haha So, the prompt is:

Study Objectives: In an essay of no less than 250 words and no more than 500 words, write a clear and detailed description of your study objectives. Be specific about your field of study and your specialized interests within this field.

Study Objectives

I am currently studying Chemical Engineering at the Federal University of XXX XXXX, one of the best Latin American institutions. The course has provided me the practical and theoretical knowledge that I need to improve my career. However, I believe that many universities in the USA can provide me more interdisciplinary courses, which are closer to professional situations.

At the present time, I am working on research that studies the zinc recovery from zinc ore in partnership with a mining industry, which helps me to be inside of the "academic and industrial world". However, since I was in high school, I express interest in the area of polymers, and in the current year I attended Organic Chemistry classes where I learned a little about polymer synthesis, and my interest has further grown.

During the program in the USA, I intend to take polymers-related classes and to deepen my knowledge in this subject. For this reason, I want to study Polymer Engineering in light of the fact that it would be possible to apply this magnificent science on engineering context. In addition, the possibility to attend Polymer Process classes would be a value opportunity due to the fact that in my university do not offer this course.

Another field that I am interested to study is about oil and petrochemical compounds, partly due to the "pre-salt" layer discovered in Brazil. The oil industry received more attention and investments and I hope to work in this field someday (in the oil refining process or in the production of polymers). With the purpose of gaining knowledge about oil matters, I want to study Introduction to Petroleum Engineering.

As I said at the beginning, I believe that interdisciplinary courses, which are still not found in Brazil, are important to give a complete formation. I think that one of the greatest advantages of the Science Without Borders program is the opportunity to attend class concerning Biology and computational approaches in my area.

In conclusion, I would like to learn about polymers in an engineering context and how to apply it in various scientific fields, once I believe that the polymer utilities are beyond the current knowledge about it. From the researches and studies, it is possible to found new ways to make life easier introducing the polymers in the daily life and I want to be part of it.

Flavia, when you write about your study objectives, it is best to concentrate on looking forward instead of looking back. If you are currently working on a project that relates to your future studies or accomplishments, explain how the course you will be studying is a logical continuation of you actions and how it relates to the end result you hope to produce in the future, based upon the conclusion of your studies and project. Remember that your study objectives should show the direct and logical progression of your learning during your time in the masters program. Edit the essay to remove any and all references to your early dreams and aspirations and discuss only the study objectives. You deviated from that discussion towards the latter part of your essay. Yes, there are grammatical errors that need to be corrected but we should put those on hold until you are able to clean up the message of your study objectives.

Thank you for the advice but I have no time to change my essay. I would appreciate if you just correct my text, would you?
