University of California Application Personal Statement - 1

University of California Application - Personal Statement Example 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
