National Honor Society Membership Essay Scholarship, leadership, character and service are key characteristics to any individual that has a focused path for success in life. I believe that I possess these elements. Beginning with scholarship, I strive to achieve academic success by taking honors and AP classes. I have been given the opportunity to start my high school career with an acceleration in science by taking Honors Biology instead of Earth Science. I am also accelerated in mathematics…

and inspired me to create my own work of art for this course.As seen in Figure 1, the walls of Debenhams use a screen to create a ripple effect or waves through the screen. For my APS 325 final project, I would like to create a fusion between engineering, science and art as well, through the medium of a dynamic sculpture titled “Fluctus per Auras” which translates to Waves by Wind in Latin. The basis for my kinetic sculpture is that wind cannot be seen but only felt. I wish to use the power of…

Move-in day was the highlight of my college career. As a freshman, I was preparing for a new term and feeling the eagerness for a new beginning. The transition from a traditional-styled home, to a communal dormitory space, is the start of one’s direction to adulthood and independence. Presiding in the learning community of Alvarez Hall forged me into the person I am today. Encountering a mixture of individuals with different sets of personalities and beliefs, allowed me to appreciate the culture…

The poster is intended to advertise the pay rates of soldiers who enlist in the army, in accordance to their rank (sergeants, corporals, and privates) each with their respective pay rate. The poster also displays the monthly separation allowance of each family, funds attributed to needy families, pension plan for post-war, and how to enlist in the war effort. 2. The main selling point of this poster is the general pay rate of each soldier, and benefits he will attain for himself and his family…

In taking advance placement (AP) classes I have learned that determination and a good work ethic will allow you to surpass other people’s expectations of your capability. Determination to succeed has allowed me in AP Chemistry- which is more difficult than I originally anticipated- to maintain an A in the class and learn concepts that deals with my future career. I am expected to learn about matter, chemical bonding, physical properties, rates of chemical reactions, laws of thermodynamics,…

Three careers that would be well suited for me are a cost estimator, an operations research analyst, and a conservation officer. Two of these careers involve quantitative thinking and mathematical skills, while the third career involves enforcing laws and regulations and working outdoors. Due to my interest in working outdoors I have chosen conservation officer as the best career opportunity for me. The first job I researched is a cost estimator. I researched this job because it involves…

I’m in an engineering class and I think it’s a good thing to dragster because you can learn the different aspects of engineering. This class teaches me the different steps of engineering. Dragster teaches kids and maybe adults to have fun and get crafty with designing different things. One thing that is important to remember is. CO2 dragster cars are a small wooden hand-made car but has incredible speed. I did research on CO2 dragster cars and I found some very interesting information. Such as,…

The advocacy of the ASME is to promote the art, science, and practice of multidisciplinary engineering and allied sciences around the globe thru education, training and professional development, codes and standards, research, conferences and publications, government relations, and other form of outreach. One of ASME goals is to provide advice to government officials at any kind of levels on engineering and technology matters and policies affecting the public interest and to make them understand…

By examining all the technology used in today's society, it must have acception influence. Technology does affect the workplace. I feel strongly that the workplace would not be able to function as acceptable without technology. If you fell and broke your ankle, they would more than likely use the x-ray machine to find out but what if we didn't have it? It wouldn't be so easy for doctors to know what's going on with us. Technology is helpful in the medical field. I know technology helps a lot of…

really thought I would be, and I currently am a nuclear engineering major here at Missouri S&T. But, I am not an engineer. Just the freshman level engineering courses were enough to let me know that engineering isn’t what I want to do for the rest of my life. I still don’t know exactly what I want to do with my life, however a guest speaker here talking about his job in economics had me more interested and intrigued then all of my engineering classes combined. Missouri S&T is a school designed…
