Wishing to devote my career to improving performances and solving business challenges faced by Chinese chemical companies, my short-term goal after graduating from Carnegie Mellon is to join a top consulting firm as an IT consultant to further sharpen my skills with real-world business problems. In the long run, I am looking to start my own technical consulting firm, which will not only help local firms build safer and more efficient chemical plants with my chemical engineering expertise, but also assist them in establishing effective information systems, such that they could gain better insights into market trends and demand. Hoping to promote an eco-friendly and sustainable concept in the Chinese chemical industry, I chose to pursue a double major in Chemical Engineering and Economics & Statistics. With the trainings from chemical engineering curriculum, not only did I establish professional fundamentals in designing and assessing processes, I have also became a strong critical thinker and problem solver, capable of creating, integrating, and delivering ideas in rigorous fashions...
The problem with pollution prevention is that it requires people to understand more than the intimate details of the production process; they must also understand the technical possibilities. Many corporations have environmental managers, which are generally responsible for helping corporations comply with the law. According to the case study, the work of environmental managers often expose them to many pollution prevention solutions, but they often have trouble getting access to production areas. Production often sees Environmental Managers as "the compliance police".
“Seriously kid!? You have the whole world at your feet, just pick something already!” he said with an aggravated look upon his face. Mr. Bluemer and I had formed quite the straightforward yet amiable relationship after serving him dinner almost every night in the dining room of the retirement home I worked at. “Mr. Bluemer, it is not that simple. I can’t just pick a job off the top of my head, there are too many things I like!” We had been having this argumentative conversation for a few nights now, ever since my college applications opened. “That’s just it Rebecca, you already know what you like, which means you already know what you should be in the future.” Mr. Bluemer had always been an insightful individual to discuss ideas with. Having gained an abundance of wisdom throughout his 86 years of life, I knew I could turn to him for guidance, but what I did not realize was that he would be the one person to inspire me the most.
My decision to apply to Eastern Illinois University’s Master of Science Technology programme is based on a careful consideration of my aptitude, interests and professional ambition of being a part of my country’s technological workforce. Though, Ghana my country of origin has seen tremendous growth in the use of technology in the past two decades there still remains a huge gap between Ghana and the Advanced World in terms of technological innovation, application and use of technology amongst the indigenous population. Motivated by the hope of bridging this technological gap between Sub Saharan Africa and the world, I file this application to your most esteemed university to seek quality education in the field of Technology.
I was raised by a mother who dropped out of college after her first semester and a grandmother who only had a third grade education. Both women taught me how important education was and to continue learning as much as I can. Despite raising seven children alone, my grandmother eventually earned her GED and took several college courses to show her children how important education was. My mother returned to college 20 years after dropping out and earned her a Master’s Degree in Human Services. The determination I saw in them is the reason I decided to continue my education and pursue graduate studies. After six years of work experience in the information technology industry, I have finally decided which field I would like to focus on. I’ve always had an interest in programming ever since taking a technology course in high school. I took what I learned in the course and applied it to the earlier social media sites, such as Blackplanet.com and Myspace.com. I realized that this was becoming a hobby as my friends would ask that I create the layouts for their personal pages using HTML.
The growing demand for the production of such goods and the various constraints involved has motivated me to help provide the world with processes and techniques which are not only more efficient and affordable but also sustainable.

The advancement of humanity requires constant effort to know the unknown. Chemists do the interesting job of studying the composition of matter and its properties. Investigating what constitutes the things around us and extracting the useful knowledge from it has always proved beneficial to mankind. I became fascinated by studying chemistry during my last two years of high school. Pursuing my interest, in 2006, I started my bachelors program at Taibah University. Madinah, Saudi Arabia, then in 2012, I started my masters program at Sacred Heart University with expected graduation in Dec 2014. In fact, the education at Taibah University and Sacred Heart University deepened my understanding of chemistry.
Education and learning are integral to not only endeavor to excel but also our quest for spiritual solace. In the aftermath of some recent financial events ethics are going to play a bigger role and leaders throughout the world will be tested by the choices they make. In my perspective, a successful leader has to firmly establish an environment for creating value not only for his immediate team but for the community through clarity of vision and facilitation of ethical decision making. Thus in today’s times, it’s absolutely necessary that business education sows the seeds of moral integrity, spiritual wisdom and chaste conduct in the future leaders. An international degree in business from a school with strong emphasis on innovation, research and sustainability thus becomes necessity for aspirants of global business leadership. It is this perspective which has drawn me towards Sheffield University School of Management.
Over the recent years, the business world has become rapidly integrated across the once restricting borders, and anyone with goals that are set high in the business world must be aware of the international perspectives and must have a wide knowledge of the international arenas that are there today. Living in Kenya, one of Africa’s best tourist destinations, gave me a unique experience because it allowed me to have a diverse background both academically and professionally which has exposed me to different continents, peoples, cultures, and languages due to the large number of tourists that visit the country, and the diversity that they bring along. From a very young age, I began learning about tourism and how the tourism industry works, including the various stakeholders that are involved in order to make a destination successful. Being brought up in Kenya, I believe that I am familiar with the increasingly important markets, both niche and new, in this region, and thus I am thoroughly prepared for the challenges and demands that I will come across during my studies in the MBA program at your institution.
I ran away from Kathmandu School of Law in 2003 to join Department of National Parks and Wildlife Conservation under Ministry of Forest and Soil Conservation to work as a permanent employee in the post of park ranger. I did not do so, because I couldn’t afford the tuition fee. The school had rewarded me the scholarship that covered tuition fee, accommodation as well as other expenses. I ran away, because I had realized that my decision of switching from forestry to law had blurred my professional goal. Another reason behind doing so was my urgent obligation to earn some food for my starving parents.

Born in Goa, with its many famous beaches, I grew up along the seaside. As a child I have spent my evenings watching huge marine vessels entering and leaving the port and developed curiosity about the working of huge ships. Because 70 % of the planet is covered with water, sea transport has been the largest carrier of freight throughout recorded human history. A lot remains to be explored about the water bodies in the world; moreover, the rising crunch on land resources will force further exploration of the seas and the oceans areas to replace them. Be it floating cities or floating international airports or for that matter bulk intercontinental transportation by marine vessels, water bodies, across continents, water bodies serve to be a useful medium, and the engineering and science needed to understand its dynamics is in demand.
