Admission Essay, my interest in mechanical engineering

There are many careers, which one may choose to pursue, once they are through with high school. I believe that by training to become a mechanical engineer, I will have achieved one of the goals in my life. A few years back, while watching television, I viewed a documentary on mechanical engineering, and it inspired me. It focused upon the career of Mr. Kountouras, who currently, advises the American Society of Mechanical Engineers. He has done a lot to help students who are pursuing a course in mechanical engineering. In fact, he responsible for the success of the Robotic Competition, and this took place in America, in the year 1997. As I watched and heard of his success, it clearly dawned on me that this would be the career path I would follow.

It is a fact that while, in high school, one is not taught mechanical engineering, but I have various sources where I derive my inspiration. I have always been fascinated by the manner, which machines work. Also, the need to find out how various machines are manufactured, developed, as well as designed. As a young child, I would often find myself dismantling my toys to discover more about them. I would get in trouble with my parents as the toys they bought would not last for long. Currently, I am taking courses in physics and mathematics, and my grades can attest that I can take up on mechanical engineering, as a major in college. Most of the people who know me have knowledge concerning my computer expertise. In turn, I am confident this will be an advantage, in having a mechanical engineering career. I believe that I have a future in mechanical engineering, as I am quite creative. Moreover, I always have an urge to build devices, which are tangible.

I am a firm believer about working in teams as, throughout high school, I participated in various projects with my classmates. Mechanical engineers have to work in teams most times, as this approach is useful in engineering development and design. Furthermore, I am disciplined and one with leadership capabilities. These qualities make me an ideal candidate for consideration for admission at the college to study mechanical engineering. By gaining admission, I will obtain vital information regarding, which sector to specialize in. By being a mechanical engineer, I will engage in projects, which will help mankind. At the same time, ensure that all my projects are ethical, and they contribute positively to society. The pay, which mechanical engineers, get for their hard work is another motivation, for choosing to be a mechanical engineer. After am through with my undergraduate studies, I wish to pursue a Doctorate and Masters degree. This will assist in progressing in the career of mechanical engineering at a higher level.

In conclusion, I am confident that, by gaining admission into the college, I will work hard towards achieving success. My teachers as well as other credible people whom I have interacted with will provide the reference needed. This is a valuable opportunity, which will assist me towards attaining my goals. In turn, I will work hard, so as to be a highly recognized mechanical engineer. Indeed, I hope you consider me for admission, and I thank you in advance for this marvelous opportunity.
