In high school , I had wonderful physics and calculus teachers with deep knowledge of the subject matter and a passion for sharing it with others . This fostered a desire to learn things from a fundamental perspective , which ultimately led me to choose Engineering Science .
Physics is the pursuit of understanding the world around you to such a degree that you can predict how it will behave . This is so powerful and almost magical .

EMILY DUDGEON $ 2,000 ARTA-TW Insurance Degree Scholarship
My mom is a teacher and homeschooled us for a few years in elementary school , which definitely gave me a more positive view of education and hard work . Similarly , a few of my teachers in high school really showed me that it is okay to fail sometimes , even when you ’ ve tried your hardest .
Hopefully ten years from now , I ’ d be at work in a vet clinic . I ’ d love to practise as a country vet in a small farming town .
