Although you may not yet know what you want to major in, which department or program at MIT appeals to you and why? (*) (100 words or fewer) Truly, we're asking only because we're curious about what interests you right now. Writing "underwater basket weaving" will not give you an edge in the admissions process, so just be honest!
Every time I build, my mind ponders how the end product will function; how having a certain overall shape or placement of parts could increase the effectiveness of the robot. Every time I do calculus or physic problems, I wonder how they are applied in real life; how we can send current through a coil to transform electrical energy to mechanical as in a motor and then optimize that for maximum efficiency between power and speed. It is my passion to build, improve upon, and understand how things function that has led me to choose MIT's Department of Mechanical Engineering!
Criticize please :)
