About a year ago, I was on a water bus journey with a few of my classmates. We were having a good time. But the curse of being an engineering student, my minds led me to go to navigation deck and observe ship operation. I struck up a conversation with the Captain about the water bus and waterway, and learned some interesting fine details. One of them was that the water bus always maintains a constant speed in that inland waterway. I was curious to know why, so I asked him. He said if the vessel speed exceeds that constant operating speed, local people complain about shore erosion. I was surprised to hear the answer from him. Why such phenomenon of shore erosion would occur due to exceeding ship speed? What is the relation between these two …show more content…
I chose Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering as my undergraduate major simply because of the vast diversity of subjects offered by the Department which includes Fluid Mechanics, Hydrodynamics, FEM, CFD, Motion and Control, Hydrostatics and Stability, Ship Design, Ship Structure, Ship Performance, Thermal Engineering, Heat Transfer, Mechanics of Structure, Theory of Machines, Fracture Mechanics and Materials. Of all the courses, Fluid Mechanics, Computational Fluid Dynamics, Hydrodynamics and FEM intrigued me most and piqued my interest to pursue my graduate studies and research in these …show more content…
In order to develop expertise in a particular arena and to delve deep into it, there is no alternative to undertaking Ph.D. I have been searching for a suitable university for my Ph.D. study. I have decided on Kansas State University because of its diverse and reputed faculties, fabulous research facilities and the reputation as a prestigious Mechanical Engineering institution. Researches done at CURET Lab, Microfluidics and Energy Laboratory, SeaTech- The Institute for Ocean & Systems Engineering and Center for Acoustics and Vibrations have attracted me most. Another reason for choosing Kansas State University is the positive feedback I got about the research environment from my seniors of undergrad school who are currently pursuing their graduate studies at this renowned university.
I understand that doing a Ph.D. is a big commitment. It takes a toll on one, requires a lot of strength of mind and sacrifice. But this is what I want. This is what I would love to do. And I am willing to take any challenges for the prospect of deeper research to serve the mankind in its most effective form. I believe, I would be able to contribute a significant impact to the scientific world if provided with the
Fieldwork Observation Task M3 Assignment 2 RA1 Broad River Correctional Institution- Dr. Kennard Dubose/ Behavioral /Mental Health & Substance Abuse Services. On Saturday, October 11th at 1300, I visited the Broad River Correctional Institution for a tour and interview with Dr. Dubose. The correctional facility opened in 1988 and is a level 3 male institution under the direction of warden Robert Stevenson.
Admission to graduate and professional programs is very competitive. The university offers graduate degrees the masters and professional levels. Nationally ranked programs as well as partnerships with Oak Ridge National Laboratory are among U.T.’s unique characteristics (2015). History/Governance/Background
The world, as well as ourselves, can become confident. I will encourage scholarship, leadership, and good citizenship with my school and community. With my hardwork, not only shall I benefit, but all that I help shall be benefited as well.
After this research experience, I hope to have a better understanding of my place in the world of
In the ten years I hope I am not sick of the sea and and still be as exited as I am today in exploring the opportunities that I can seek out to be successful in the field. What I look forward to in college education at the academy learning how everything works on the ship and learning about navigation, marine life, cargo handling skills and etc. The Marine Transportation program at the USMMA is a combination of nautical science and maritime business management. I think getting a degree in science and business will be something that interests me and that I look forward to. In sports I also look forward to because they have a swimming program it is something that has been apart of my life for a very long time and its gotten me through a lot of things in my life .
Why did you decide to become a physician and how do you plan to use your time as an undergraduate student to reach your goal? *
I believe that I am able to help others with certain issues as I have gone through many experiences from being at this school for several years now, and I know how to deal with different problems others may be facing now. Even if I have not gone through the same things others have, I still find it quite easy for me to empathise with other people, which helps me be able to think of different solutions to different problems. From helping others, this would also help me to learn and overcome my own
For all of my life, I have had a skill and a great interest in the design and construction of a variety of objects and machinery. I have known since day one that all i wanted to do is design brand new and innovative technology. I have chosen Waterloo as my first choice of education for my future career as a mechanical engineer for many reasons. One being the schools amazing reputation as a school of applied sciences, having been given the nickname “MIT of the north” by many. I know a few people who have attended this University.
The smooth wave pool tides follow behind the boat as it leaves the harbor and into the Pacific Ocean. The vessel has a second deck with five rows of white glossy benches with no shelter from the sunlight where you can also find the captain in the bridge of the ship. Once the boat hits the wide open ocean, there are five-foot waves with a slight wind. A big black thunderous cloud is on the far, far horizon. Everyone aboard the ship is swiftly jolting from handrail to handrail because the boats unsteady sway.
There is this famous saying, ''Develop a passion for learning. If you do, you will never cease to grow". I could not agree more. Growing up as a kid, I vividly recall myself always being enthusiastic to learn and explore. Now I stand on the state where I can proudly say that this passion has driven my growth, motivated me to grow even further and augmented my hunger for quality education.
Dashrath Manjhi (1934– 17 August 2007), also known as Mountain Man, was a poor labourer in Gehlaur village, near Gaya in Bihar, India, who carved a path 110 m long, 9.1 m wide and 7.6 m deep through a hillock using only a hammer and chisel. After 22 years of work, Dashrath shortened travel between the Atri and Wazirganj blocks of Gaya town from 55 km to 15 km. This is just one instance that illustrates the magic power of Civil Engineering in effecting radical social and economic changes. From the very outset, it is precisely this magic power of Civil Engineering that has fascinated me as a scientific discipline.
This experience has cemented my aspirations to pursue graduate studies abroad and seek a career in research. A challenging career in research will bring-in problems involving intense intellectual thinking and such a career will be pivotal in unearthing the best out of
The ideas that I come up with, will be able to help people. I would improve things in life that people thought would never be able to be fixed. I would be proud if I was able to make the life of other people
Right from my childhood days, I was always eager to know how things work in surroundings. When I was given toys, I hardly played with them rather tried to dismantle it and try to know the mechanism running it. During school days, I have participated in many science exhibitions which further motivated me towards taking my knowledge and experience onto a higher and advanced level. With this desire and curiosity to understand machines and mechanisms, I chose to complete my graduation in Mechanical Engineering.
One of my future goals and the most important one is to become a doctor. It is my life dream, and the only thing I am seeking for. Doctor is someone capable to save and help others life in ways that are not possible in other careers. Being a doctor for me is not just like any job, it is achieving a dream I have since I was 6 years old. One of the main reasons I picked this major is my family; my family members are almost all doctors, and my dad too.
