I'm a technical student

My name is Dima. I'm from Minsk. This year I've finished school number 151 in Minsk. I think finishing school is the beginning of an independent life for millions of school-leavers. They have to choose their future profession and enter vocational or technical schools, institutes or universities to get education. Actually, it is very difficult to make up one's mind and choose one of hundreds of jobs. Choosing an occupation takes time and you shouldn't be in a hurry. The majority of people spend a greater part of their lives at work. For that reason you should do a lot of thinking about the things you like and the things you can do well. It means that when choosing a future career you must be realistic about your interests and abilities. There are lucky people who choose their profession in childhood but they are few. While at school I changed my mind a lot of times and couldn't decide which science or field of industry to specialize in.

Some young people choose their future professions under the influence of their parents or friends. Many young people keep their family tradition and continue careers of their parents or grandparents. It goes without saying that when choosing career we should also analyze job prospects. In my opinion, you should take into account future employment, well-paid and steady wages, good working conditions, the opportunity to promotion. To my mind, the final choice should depend on what you are interested in. I'd like to enjoy my job and get satisfaction from it.

At school I was good at many subjects but my favorite ones were Physics, Mathematics and Programming. That's why I made up my mind to become an engineer and enter the Belarusian National Technical University. I passed the entrance examinations successfully and now I'm a first-year student of Instrument Making Faculty. Our faculty trains specialists in different fields such as Sports Engineering, Management, Economics and Organization of Production and others. But I chose the speciality of Micro and Nanosystem Devices. I think that computers are the most rapidly changing sphere of modern technology. We are living in a high-tech world in the age of information. No business is possible without computers. Information is now generated, transmitted, received and stored electronically through computer networks. And from my point of view the future is just filled with computers.

To my mind, nowadays the profession of engineer is of great need and importance for country. To be a well-prepared specialist I should have some important qualities such as great persistence, knowledge of science, and, of course, knowledge of foreign languages. I think this is my vocation. I hope that my personal qualities combined with the knowledge would be quite enough to succeed in my work. I believe that after graduating from University I will become a well-educated person, useful for the progress of the society I live in.
