Statement of purpose for Master in Software Engineering

With each year that passes, I develop increasing passion in finding solutions to problems. This passion led me into finding the field of computer science and extremely rewarding. With high level of interest, I have always strived to increase my understanding on the knowledge of things around me which would enable me develop bigger and better ideas. My desire to pursue software engineering was developed from my fascination of understanding how different software works on different sets of platforms. I also found it interesting to learn the different languages used in programming and how software engineering comes in. I have always had keen interest in working with a large company as a software developer.

My main aim is to pursue a master in software engineering particularly in computer science and learn a programming language that would suit me. I have just completed my bachelor degree in software engineering and I believe that the skills I gained during this course are vital to move to a master in the same. While studying for the degree, I had the privilege of volunteering a local Bureau which allowed me to train children. I also participated in a number of events especially in sports as I engaged children in physical activity. A greater reward that I got from volunteering was the coaching qualifications that I think I needed to take my degree to a higher level and to boost my CV as well. Volunteering enabled me develop high communication and interpersonal skills as I enjoyed learning and teaching at the same time. Volunteering brought me into a world of hobby that I never knew I would find passion in. recently, I have been making good progress in creating programs that are Java enabled and this has confirmed my dream of being a software developer.

The success in completion of this project is what inspires me to go on and learn more complex coding languages to add to my knowledge on program and this is the reason why I have chosen to pursue a master in computer science. I really enjoy the numerous challenges that opportunities in this field as well as the knowledge brings and most of my friends wonder how I manage to stay focused. Most people always asked me how I managed to stay organized in the presence of numerous activities. The skills I developed in software engineering propelled me into the system of staying organized as we were expected to work in teams. I have also participated in a wide range of national campaigns where we were expected to raise a certain amount of money to meet health needs of marginalized communities. We walked through jungles over the night, crossed national boundaries and rivers just to make the campaigns a success.

This whole experience confirmed my determination and adaptation to any environment which are the basic qualities looked for in successful individuals. I have a feeling that my level of commitment and motivation to computer science course has been demonstrated by my decision to finish up a complete degree program on software engineering. Overall, I have shown high sense of willingness to achieve not only educational goals but equally life goals. With high level punctuality and organizational tendencies, I have developed a good reputation from everyone around me especially from the organizations I volunteered for. I believe that all these activities are needed for me accomplish a master in software engineering because when working as a programmer in a company I will need to develop organizational and punctuality, good communication skills within a team while at the same time developing high quality software programs.
