The purpose of the personal statement (sometimes referred to as a statement of purpose, or “the essay”) is to provide a narrative of your approach to the PMP (https://www.cs.washington.edu/academics/pmp/?utm_source=pce.uw.edu&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=(not%20set)https://www.cs.washington.edu/academics/pmp/?utm_source=pce.uw.edu&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=(not%20set)). This is also where applicants can share particular strengths that might not appear in their other application materials, or where they can provide context for any aspects of their academic or professional backgrounds that they feel might be of concern.
Please craft your statement around the following prompt:
Please describe your academic and professional backgrounds and qualifications, the areas of study that most interest you, and how the PMP will help you reach your professional goals. Please limit your response to ~750 words.
My background:
I graduated as Aerospace Engineer from University of Washington in June, 2018. Because of the downside of the job market at that time and my non-citizen identity, I have trouble to find a Aerospace related job offer. However, the computer science market was growing, plus my interests in this filed. I decided to be a bootcamper and spent most of my time to self learning. In the meantime, I was running a food truck to maintain my financial needs. Finally, I got my first cs job offer in early 2020 as an SDET till now. (can refer my linkedin profile https://www.linkedin.com/in/wenfu-norman-lei/https://www.linkedin.com/in/wenfu-norman-lei/). Due to AI and ML field getting more and more popular now. I want to enhance my skill in these field by attending UW cs master program.
