I am writing this essay about why I deserve the scholarship. To start, Aristotle, the famous Greek philosopher once said, “We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit.” And while I pride myself in my numerous academic and career achievements I believe I attained the level of success purely due to consistency in making the right choices. While I never define my obstacles as failures, I mark my success by my repeated perseverance through trials. I have faced several challenges over the years, from lack of funds to complete rejection for not being in the “right circle”; yet I kept earning high grades and graduating at the top of my class. I deserve this scholarship because I have got the experience and the tenacity to achieve my objectives, not minding the hurdles facing me.
In secondary school, I developed an interest in the oil and gas industry after a school trip where we visited a land rig in one of the oil communities in the Niger Delta. I was amazed at how they drilled for oil hundreds of meters subsurface guided by limited data. I was even more fascinated when I read about offshore platforms where oil and gas were drilled for, produced and transported long distances by pipelines to refineries or transported by floating production storage and offloading (FPSO) units. That day, a new desire and interest were born in me to join the world of engineering to research and deliver better exploration and exploitation methods.
I achieved this dream by studying geology with an ExxonMobil scholarship, then Oil and Gas engineering while majoring in drilling with an Elf scholarship. I have worked on several important projects in the UK and a few worthy of mentioning are the following:
Why do I deserve this scholarship? I deserve this award because I am a trusted member of the UK engineering industry. With my education and experience, I can help sustain the growth of the UK oil and Gas industry. The award is not just going to help me get my MBA but will be equipping me to make strategic business decisions such as working with budgets, financial forecasting, and to understand the full impact of the decisions, negotiate, persuade others and lead high-performance teams. I appreciate your consideration, and look forward to helping build a greater engineering industry in the United Kingdom.
