Majoring in Computer Science in California statepolytechnic university Pomona. Being able to choose computer science as my career is nodoubly one of the luckiest things. Not many people have the chance actually to do what they likefor their life.My journey to Computer science was not easy. I came to college as a civil engineeringmajor(using old, not evolved technology), not long before I found out wrong. I spent timesearching for a new major, But what inspire me joining computer science is the go matchbetween alpha go and Lee Sedol. I am 3 dun player in go; I remember my teacher told me that gois the only board game that computer cannot defeat when I was learning it. How strong thecomputer program is shocked me, I knew it is the future of people’s life. The first year incomputer science was not easy because I didn’t use a computer a lot before, I remember the timeI was learning simple I/O, I wasn’t even able to locate the text file located in the C disk on mywindows laptop. A simple binary search algorithm can take me hours to write. Although I spenttime, the grade I got was still not satisfying, and I keep receiving Bs in my first three quarter incomputer science, which directly brought my GPA from 3.8 to 3.2, making mistakes in myprogram seemed unavoidable. For a while, I even questioned if computer science is the rightchoice for me. In my first few computer science classes, I had a classmate who can easily explaineverything in the textbook and write code so easy that I have to struggle for hours to figure outhow it works. By the time I told myself that I want to be as good as him. To achieve that, Ibrought books on programming, practiced coding every day on website leetcode and hack rank.By the end of my first year, I finished over 300 algorithms problems on leetcode website. Myeffort paid off; in my second Algorithms & data structure class, I can look at a problem and juststart to write a program to solve it. With a solid fundamental on algorithm and coding, thefollowing major classes did not become challenging to me. I made the B I got on my first year incomputer science the last B I got in my undergraduate study.Two years in computer science, I developed my programming skills and knowledge in thesoftware-related field. However, I knew to fight alone is not how developing software works;teamwork is crucial if I want to build software that can change people’s life. I chose engineering-related fields because I’m not a very social person, but this time I know I have to step out andwork with people. To better prepare for my future career, I joined a start-up software companycalled Overwatch Safety Solution. In there, I was able to see how software developing world islike, during my internship in 2019 summer; I got to program on cloud service and going to scrummeeting that force me to work with my colleague. I had to use the API built by my colleaguesand communicate with them. At first, it was not easy. I had been used just to use the well-document code I can find on the internet, and watch the tutorial videos. Now I have to speak outabout my question regarding the code given to me. The first scrum meeting didn’t end up wellfor me. I came to the meeting unprepared because I thought all I need for work is to upload mycode, and that’s all I need. During the meeting, I saw people even bring a little notebook thatrecords what they had done and what is the next plan so that they can report more clearly, Imumbled a few words in the meeting when it is my turn. Later I received serval emails from mycolleague that asks me to explain what I did, and it took me extra time to get things settled. Ilearned the lesson that I must get proper preparation if I want teamwork to be more efficient. Scholarship writing (550 words)On a separate sheet of paper write a short essay (approximately 550 words) on the followingtopic: Describe how consulting engineers make their community a better place to live bothtechnically and socially. Your interest, understanding and commitment to the business andmanagement of the profession are important and should be reflected in the essay.(Want to mention that I have worked in as an engineering assistant in “BWU consultants, INC.”from Jan 2019 to present. And the responsibility our consulting engineers hold includesprotecting the general public, treating each client with the best and accurate calculations anddesigns. Straightly followed the requirement, and performed the cheapest and most efficientsolutions to customer. Not only we have the knowledge in the field, but also the experience wecollected through different projects. BTW “BWU,consultants” is a structural company, we doresidential and commercial structural calculations and designs (If you want to mention)
