University College London:
The most important reason why I chose the course is what I experienced during seven years of conflict in my country which destroyed a large part of the infrastructure and left hundreds of thousands people in difficult humanitarian conditions, which made me asked a question what would be my role as a civil engineer in the human movement in my country?
Therefore, I choose this program because of the approach which the university takes, where the reduction of risks, water, drainage, sustainable infrastructure and urban housing combined into one program and all the challenges of rebuilding Syria. Beside of this there is a flexibility in choosing modules which allow me to shape my study according to my interest.
furthermore ,UCL will also give me a credibility of my education by taking my master program at a world class university , the Practical experience and field trip will give me a look at everything I will learn this will open wide doors in my field .
During my work I opened my eyes on many problems, including: the huge lost money that is spent due to the lack of sustainable planning in the past ,the impact of infrastructure on the lives of people and society which eventually leads to widespread poverty .hence, by studying this course I will be able to identify challenges to engineers in developing countries Finding Sustainable solutions to these obstacles taking into account the culture and privacy of the Syrian society thus improving the quality of life of the next generation and seeking a world without poverty.
Hi, Aliaa...
First of all, I wanna ask is this your personal statement for applying UCL? Is there word count limitation?
I think you may support what you are going to pursue in UCL with your academic background and professional experience. Then, you may relate your limitation ability in previous degree and work experience by taking higher degree in UCL, you also elaborate how program in UCL will help your future career. The reason why I suggest you that because higher degree in foreign country should be able to move you forward to face next challenging era.
Good luck..

Holt Educational Consultant - / 15385 Aliaa, this is a Chevening University Choice essay. You must first, prove that you have both the academic and professional background that will justify your ability to complete this course. It is not all about your desire to help your country. That is only part of it. The choice of university needs to tie in directly with a specific project that you hope to undertake or participate in upon your return to your home country. Remember, the reason for the masters degree is professional improvement. So pick the university based upon the career path that you wish to have upon your return. What is the reason that you chose the course? How does it help you professionally? What is the purpose of studying at that specific university? What are the specific programs that interested you in applying there? What is your previous educational experience that would make the reviewer believe that you have a strong potential to complete this course? Why do you think you are a "fit" for the university? You must present justifications that will tell the reviewer that you can be a successful masters candidate once you enroll in that specific course at that particular university.
Thank you very much for your guidance,it became clearer. Please start a new thread and/or make it Urgent for a new review, thank you.
