Wheel, boats, electricity, automobiles, planes, spaceships, wireless
information transfer: this evolution is determined by engineering. It would be
difficult to imagine a world without engineering. It is able to make what seems
impossible into a reality. Engineers consistently have triumphed over benefits to achieve the
most extraordinary structural and mechanical achievement. Leading engineers are
the creators of our future, they apply scientific principles to thousands of
projects with the aim of making life easier, their pioneering ingenuity has
played a significant role in the ever-changing face of technological
advancement. This inspired me to become an integral part of this fascinating
fast paced world by studying engineering at university. I find it a challenging
ambition to become one of them and to design a world for future generations.

  
 I like to challenge myself, and
see it as an opportunity to learn something new as it appeals to the more
intrepid side of my character. I have always been curious about the immense
intricacy of various mechanical structures like most engineers. My passion for
engineering stems from an inquisitive side that has fuelled many of my
interests, in particular I enjoy looking into the functioning system behind
many machines we use in our daily lives.

My desire to study aerospace engineering stemmed from
travelling. I have been so fortunate that I could travel to a lot and
visit various technology related places, which have shown me a scope of
engineering possibilities. Looking back into my childhood, I always found
myself interested in problem solving. Puzzles for older children and repair the family gadgets were my favourite entertainment.
I have always been interested in the mechanics involved
in creating machines. For example when my computer broke down I dismantled it
in an attempt to repair it and figure out a way to make it function again. I
was unable to solve the problem, but this only built on my curiosity to
understanding the circuitry and chips embedded in the computer. Understanding
the working process of any machine, from cattle to spacecraft, has always led
to a unique experience of satisfying my interest. The borders of my imagination
about how far technology can go grew even more when I attended my first Physics
lesson in secondary school.

 I have a strong interest and ability in science and mathematics as
reflected by achieving A’s or A*’s on all my IGCSE exam papers. Moreover, I have
attained three certificates in the 3rd Annual International Mathematics
Modeling Challenge, which shows I have the academic mettle to handle this
demanding course. My passion for aerospace engineering was furthered during my
A-Level courses in Physics and Mathematics. These courses enabled me to gain a
fundamental understanding of the nature of engineering. I am confident that I
have the necessary academic background to be successful in the study of aerospace
engineering.

Being the Vice-President of the St. Magdalene Social Work Club
requires strong leadership, as I joined the Social Work Club at the age of 14, I
have strong disciplined in my behavior and independent. Teachers always assign
me to complete important tasks because I am efficient and trustworthy. Outside
school, an early introduction to music was something I welcomed
enthusiastically. I started to play piano at the age of 5. Besides, I am a keen
swimmer and have an interest in yoga and meditations. Sports have allowed me to
have a break from work whilst providing me with a healthy outlet for my spare
time.

Aeronautical engineers are at the forefront
of an ever-changing world of technology and I want to be a part of the new
technological developments that change the world for the better. I believe that I have the academic aptitude and
creativity that will be necessary for a course in engineering and I am looking
forwards to the challenges and opportunities that this degree course
will bring. My abilities and
experience would allow me to adapt to university life well and utilise my time
at university to become a part of the limitless world of engineering.
