Chemical Engineering Personal Statement (part 2) My aim in life to become an engineer was still in my mind for over two years as I attended Advanced Programs of Electrical – Electronics at Hanoi University of Science and Technology. Not until did I help a group of Grade 10 students in Chemistry, I realized my interest in Chemical Engineering hadn’t ceased. I considered a lot then I determined myself to study Chemical Engineering in Canada, which has been considered to hold the world’s second-largest oil reserves, as the best fit for my aspiration. I believe the education system with outstanding reputation, global standards, competitive environment and high-qualified facilities and programs in Chemical Engineering will enable me to gain a deeper insight on how to blur the boundaries between theory and practice. I lead an active life by participating in various social activities. Every weekend, I have a conversation in Talking Green Club. Usually, a club member hosts the meeting and we discuss various topics about environmental problems. By doing so, I do not only sharpen my communication skills but also raise my awareness of the human impacts on our world’s nature and animals’ living habitats. Besides I joined in Youth Volunteer Organization Circle of Friends. For some programs, I was the leader of about 40 volunteers aiming to help disabled children who are victims of Agent Orange exposure. In my own time, I greatly enjoy playing soccer. As a member of the university soccer team winning the second prize in Nationwide Student Soccer League in 2012, I acquired the fair-play spirit which no programs and courses could offer. I’m confident that team-work and leadership skills which I own through after-school activities will help me study, work and interact more efficiently in the diverse atmosphere of university. Overall, my long-term goal is to become a chartered petrochemical engineer in my country. Reaching that objective is always challenging and requires great efforts; however, I strongly believe with the combination my achievements, both in academic and non-academic programs, and advices from dedicated professors and helpful friends, I can acclimatize to the undergraduate environment and, more importantly, contribute to the student community where I can thrive and fulfill my true passion.
