Chemistry taught me the importance of perseverance and hard work. When I first started studying chemistry in High School, I thought it was difficult and incomprehensible. I was fortunate enough to have an excellent teacher who made me want to work hard at chemistry and showed me that once you had a good introduction to a field, everything was possible.

The discovery of chemistry taught me patience and discipline and the importance of hard work to accomplish a goal and it changed my life.

One of the life-changing lessons that chemistry gave me was the value of a good educator. A passionate teacher ...

My intellectual love affair with chemistry and forensic science began in my high school years. I was lucky, during this formative period of my life, to have a series of excellent chemistry instructors and classes; my enthusiasm for chemistry grew throughout these years. I became more and more interested in the discipline; in my free time, I read chemistry books and learned the history of the subject. It was clear to me that I wanted to build a career out of this interest. After I graduated high school, I was accepted into the Abu Dhabi police force academy to complete a study ...

The medical field to me represents an interesting field with immense possibilities. My journey in the medical field started out with a bachelor’s degree in biology from the Milkins University followed by another degree in clinical laboratory science from the Illinois University. I had made the decision to be part of the medical world after my mother had a brush with cancer. Prior to that, I had weighed several options but none had particularly impressed me. Watching her recover fully and later on become cancer free was proof to me that being involved in the diagnosis, care and treatment of ...

On the threshold of completing my Master’s degree in Chemical Sciences, I seek to take my research in organic chemistry to the next level. Having a PhD in organic chemistry would work on a positive note for me because it will help me in joining my efforts together along with the knowledge that I have gained until now. To build a heritage for the learning of chemistry, I would like to join McGill University. It is an institution that I have aspired to become a part of for as long as I have determined chemistry to be my field of choice.

I am writing in regards to my application for the PhD Chemistry program at McGill University. Having a major interest in Organic Chemistry I hereby wish to pursue my further studies at McGill University due to its global recognition as one of the TOP-ranked universities with a solid laboratory setting and extensive opportunities for the development of my research skills.
I believe that my previous achievements in the stated field of study can stoutly buttress my willingness to enroll in the program. Gaining a Bachelor of Science Degree in Chemistry at King Faisal University gave me a thorough basic knowledge and understanding ...

If people look at my educational background and compare it to the program I am currently applying for, they have the tendency to look at my paper twice and wonder whether I am applying for the right program. You see, I have an undergraduate degree, a double major to be exact, in Chemistry and Chemical Engineering. To make things even odd, I even pursued graduate studies for Chemistry. I was a promising young chemist who was fortunate to have published two researcher papers because of this I received a number of Ph.D offers. It was as if my future was laid down ...

My ultimate goal since I started my academic career in biology was to count myself among the foremost professionals in the field; much of that relates closely to receiving as complete an education as possible and taking a challenging, full-time position as a college professor. After having completed two years of MCB combined with a dissertation at XX

University, four years of Biology courses concentration and one year of Chemistry at XX University, there is nothing more exciting than being able to continue pursuing my objectives and utilizing my knowledge to continue my career in MCB and earn my doctorate at XX ...

I have always had an interest to pursue a career in the engineering field. From an early age, I knew that the field of engineering would be the perfect choice for my future studies. However, due to the fact that engineering is a wide field, I was often undecided on the branch of engineering that I wanted to pursue. As a child, I enjoyed dismantling my toys in an attempt to discover what they were made of. I would then try to re-assemble the parts. Later, in my teens, I discovered that I had a strong passion for maths and chemistry. These subjects were ...

I come from a family that lays great emphasis on the attainment of quality education and this has been a driving force in my journey through school, college, and now, university. I firmly believe that learning is a continuous process and that a person needs to grow and develop throughout his life in order to be intellectually satisfied. I have had a lifelong interest in the field of science. For most of my childhood, chemistry was a great passion, to be able to create new products from scratch. I participated in several science fairs at the school level and found success. However, science itself is a ...

As an undergraduate at the University of Washington, I have inspiring academic endeavors. My current goal, thereby, is to apply for an internship to a neuro research facility at the Allen Institute of Brain Science. My passion for neurobiology fueled my desire to acquire the valuable skills and know-how during the internship. Being an undergraduate researcher, I am also a skilled musician, who has been playing the piano since 11 years of age, a trumpet in a brass band, and an accordion for singing groups. When I was attending elementary school in Ukraine, I began to develop an appreciation for classical music. This ...

I would describe myself as a highly motivated, ambitious, and independent young adult. I am self-driven and always work extremely hard to attain the goals I set out to achieve.

Healthcare is in a constant state of evolution. The education and training of Pharmacists is crucial to the advancement of the field and benefitting all of humanity. Traditionally, the intensive study of chemistry is the backbone of this education. The job of the Pharmacist is ever expanding and entails developing treatments, monitoring treatments of patients, providing for the last line of defense to the patient before he receives a potentially toxic substance, and otherwise caring for the ill. The modern era has seen a shortage of healthcare professionals; and pharmacology is one of the means that healthcare can be delivered to a broad ...

My ability to pursue a degree course in pharmaceutical studies was, unfortunately, made difficult since neither of the two universities in my home country offered study courses in that field.
