I have always been fascinated by any kind of electronic devices. I still
remember how, as a kid, I used to dismantle old cassette players or electronic toys just to take a look at their circuit boards or speakers. I was very curious and couldnt manage to find any other way of getting to know how exactly they were functioning. Of course, tearing them down didnt help too much because, at the time, I didnt have any scientific knowledge required to understand which component does what, but I knew from the start that there is no better job for me than a technical one. Throughout my school years, I have always striven to be one of the top students and I reckon that this qualifies me as a hard working, perseverant student who is always eager to learn new things. My interest in physics and mathematics has developed my logical way of thinking and, thus has given me the ability to identify the source of a problem by using a troubleshooting process suitable to the case. There are several other abilities which have been improved by my implication in a series of extra-curricular activities. Being a member of our high school theatre group, Experimenthalia for three years has helped me to develop my social skills and taught me how to successfully work in a team, taking into consideration everyones needs and working together to achieve a common goal. Besides theatre, I have participated in many projects organised by an NGO, Partnership for Europe Association, whose goal is Education for Democratic citizenship. During these activities, I have learnt how to manage a team of 5 8 teenagers while being a trainer. Besides all these activities, I have played electric guitar in a band for several years as my enthusiasm towards music is really high. Also, I have travelled as much as possible because I personally think that this is the best way to broaden my horizon in terms of different cultures and societies. Since last year, when I first went to Denmark, I have spent a lot of time thinking whether I should choose to study abroad or not because I am aware that this is an important decision which I cannot take back. At first, my parents didnt like the idea of me going far away from them for a long period of time, but I persuaded them into accepting my choice by giving them irrefutable arguments such as the job opportunities I can find in Denmark. Having taken into consideration all aspects of living in another country, I am confident that Denmark provides a qualitative educational system and a suitable environment for self-development on all levels in which I will definitely manage to easily integrate. I chose IT Network and Electronics Technology as a subject for my bachelor studies at Business Academy Aarhus because I have always been thrilled by the way a computer works and I wish to deepen myself in this area of expertise. When I first used the Internet, I thought it was a magical creature which somehow knows everything. As time went by and I found out a bit more about it, I realised that the informational revolution brought by computers and Internet is the best thing that has ever happened to mankind. After getting my master degree I dream of working for a big, multi-national company because then, I would have the opportunity to work in a well organised
structure and meet people from different backgrounds and with different areas of work which will definitely be an exciting work environment for me. Sincerely, Cosmin Cornel
