My Future Profession

When a person leaves a high school, he understands that the time to choose his future profession has come. It is very important to make a careful choice of future profession and a job at once. Leaving school is the beginning of independent life, the start of a more serious examination of a man’s abilities and character. As a rule, it is difficult for many school leavers to give a definite and right answer straight away.

As for me, I’m a “would be” engineer – a great piece of luck! This year I have managed to cope with and passed entrance competitive exams and now I’m a “freshman” (a first year student) of Rostov State Technical University. It aims to give the students the top level education and to enable them to carry on scientific research. After completing a course of five years our Department graduates can continue their studies and research and defend their thesis to get a scientific degree.

I have always been interested in Maths, Physics and Chemistry. That is why I consider engineering as a career. To my mind it is a very challenging, intellectual,vital, rewarding, stimulating and responsible work. Of course, you really need a sense of responsibility to cope with this job. Sometimes it is tedious, stressful and unsecure and it can be a real challenge to your character, but if you are devoted to it and ready to take the responsibility, you will definitely enjoy gratitude and respect if you go in for engineering.

Of course, it is for the future to decide whether it would be a factory or plant, business employment or any other institute, but anyway I’m sure this job is my cup of tea.
