‘Crescat scientia; vita excolatur’ (let knowledge grow from more to more; and so be human life enriched), as its motto suggests, the University of Chicago, one of the world’s great intellectual destinations, empowers scholars and students to ask tough questions, cross disciplinary boundaries, and challenge conventional thinking to enrich human life around the globe.
Every inch of shelf space in my study is crammed with books on complex mazes, a tour puzzle in the form of a complex branching passage through which the solver must find a route. Since childhood, my mind has always slid into the world of maze solving, analyzed mathematically and also often used in psychology experiments. For one thing, I developed a lasting interest in mathematics—a math problem is nothing but an intricate but fascinating maze. Undoubtedly, discovering different routes sometimes leads into ‘graves’. However, undergoing things like hesitating when coming to crossroads, drooling over going well, losing spirits when meeting traps that pert me from the correct path and lead me to the starting point, I profit thereby.
Moreover, despite the limited extent of my mathematics at present, it enters into many places of my life. An open mind, independent thinking as well as my strong logic analysis ability related to systematic mathematics knowledge play a key role in organizing extracurricular activities. During the school sports meeting, after an effective market survey, I did a data analysis on a variety of snacks to be on sale, also different suppliers. Surprisingly, considering the high cost of transportation and assurance for the food quality, purchases from the supermarkets seem more cost-effective than those on-line. It eventually turned out a big success.
I have determined on carrying out a further study majoring in mathematics, where my sincere interest lies. The Department of Mathematics in UChicago, opening in October of 1892, is dedicated to maintaining a leadership position in mathematics education and research. Out of question, UChicago is my superior alternative.
For one thing, with a commitment to free and open inquiry, the scholars in Uchicago take an interdisciplinary approach to research, whose work transforms the way people understand the world, advancing and creating fields of study. I believe the modern research facilities, world famous professors and learning atmosphere full of fierce competition in UChicago lay a perfect foundation for my future development.
For another, with hundreds of student groups, events, and resources, UChicago’s campus stays vibrant throughout the year. At UChicago, I can experience university life at its fullest. Through its wide array of programs and services, I can be offered opportunities and experiences that build community, growing personally and professionally.
It is for the strong desire for seeking knowledge in mathematics, as well as a vast range of prospects for the professional development that I sincerely look forward to realizing my dreams in your esteemed school. Although I still have a long way to go, I will stride forward resolutely and avail myself of all the chances to get further tempered and developed.
