University of California Application - Personal Statement Example

Personal ment, Computer sciences, and Information technology of California Application My interests in computing started from the time I was of an early age. The interest has never left me hence the desire to study computer science and technology at your institution. I have grown more passionate and profound with every discovery I learn about what computers can do. My passion for computers made me undertake studies in science at the high school level in Macau, China, which subsequently made me major in sciences.

I was able to achieve analytical and evaluative skills that are important for me to pursue computer science and technology by majoring in science in high school. I have been reading publications on computer science that have rekindled my passion and interest to undertake a computer science course at the University of California.I got involved in a Program dealing with Science and Technology Innovation in high school in 2012. It was a competition that had 381 teams; 2,356 people participating and a total of 42 countries.

In this -InRoboCup2012 competition, I was a programmer of Macau robot team, and my job was coded for the robots and background. I used C++ and arduino to control the servo motors (Robots) and lights (background). Through hard work and diligence, I received awards from this competition due to exemplary work that I displayed in the competition. The awards were World Champion - RoboCup 2012 Mexico City (RoboCup Junior and an award for the best Presentation -RoboCup 2012 Mexico City (RoboCup Junior.

Additionally, I have awards in Dance League – Super Team Secondary and Dance League –Special Awards Secondary, which indicate how passionate I am in succeeding at what I do.Getting involved in this competition elevated my logic in computers and hence the desire for further studies in the field at your institution, which I understand has programs that will enhance my skills and make me be among the best in this field in my career. As an individual who is passionate about solving problems that face people, I believe computer science as a field that enhances problem-solving skills is a fit for me, especially with the good computer science and technology programs in your institution.

My interest to pursue studies in computers science is further motivated by the large gap that I have in skills and knowledge in the field in breadth and width hence the desire to bridge this gap with studying computer science and technology further. I am sure the skills that I will get in this field will enable me transfer the skills from the classroom to practice and use my computing skills to make a big difference in the society by assisting in solving problems that people who lack computing skills face.

I am quite sure that University of California is the starting point for me to excel through a maiden voyage in the studies as a desire to be highly skilled in computing.
