I often break the parts up — challenging me to know the ins and outs. The best part of it is putting it back together or solving the faults giving me a great sense of achievement. My secondary school was near the Kai Tak airport where I watched take-off and landings and listened to the roaring of the jets every day. This…
My primary reason for wanting to transfer to The University of Virginia, aside from genuinely desiring to attend the University that several of my good friends attend, is that I wish to participate in the Aerospace Engineering program—for which there is no comparable program at VCU. Thus far, commuting to VCU and taking engineering, mathematics and physics courses related to my intended major(s) of Mechanical Engineering and Physics has been exhilarating, and has helped to solidify my interest…

That is what Samuel Morse and his new system of telegraphy successfully achieved. In the early 1800’s, all of the required parts that were needed to build an electrical communication system had been…
