PLS HELP MAKE CORRECTIONS TO THIS TrAnSCRIPT Why are you going to the US? Response: I’m going to the US for my masters in Chemical Engineering with specialization in Pharmaceutical Engr at Rutgers University in New Jersey WHY CHEMICAL ENGINEERING/Why Pharmaceutical Engr? Healthcare in Nigeria is a mess which is a reflection of our Pharmaceutical industries, Hence one of the outlets of being able to solve problems in the healthcare industry as a Chemical Engineer is by specializing in Pharmaceutical Engr. Also, during my application phase I came across a paper authored by Professor Piero Armenante on Pharmaceutical process and Equipment design which further heightened my likeness for the course Why do you want to do a masters?/why would you spending so much on a masters Basically to gather a deeper understanding of the concepts in the area of pharmaceutical engr by leveraging on the theoretical knowledge I got from my bachelors chemical engr, with the ultimate goal of coming back to Nigeria to apply the knowledge to the pharmaceutical industries here. For me getting a deeper understanding of pharmaceutical engr is not a waste of time/money, because after the program I would have been equipped with requisite knowledge needed to move the Pharmaceutical industry in Nigeria forward HOW DID YOU HEAR ABOUT RUTGERS? I decided to go with Rutgers because it best fits my profile Attending an Ivy League school such as MIT (which I visited the last time I was in America) has always been my dream, but after my GRE I had to compromise a bit. I started researching on other schools and other programs, I was fascinated by a paper I came across by Professor Piero Armenante’s -Pharmaceutical process and Equipment design , This led me to do an extensive research on the top programs in Pharmaceutical engineering, of which I found out the Pharmaceutical engr offered by Rutgers. Recently I found out Rutgers is sometimes referred to as a public Ivy League school, which means my dream is still valid WHY USA? Why not Canada or Germany USA because it’s the innovation capital of the earth, with big advancement and contribution to Research and development, moreover the US is home to many top notch universities, also in the US I get to experience and meet people of different cultures that will further enhance my development, personally and professionally Why Rutgers It was an easy decision for me because. At Rutgers, students have the opportunity to be part of an engineering community that includes world-renowned faculty conducting leading-edge research as well as motivated students from a diversity of backgrounds and interests, who remain networked beyond their studies as part of a 20,000-strong alumni association. Rutgers is located in New Jersey which is home to many Pharmaceutical Research and Development centers. The chemical engineering department is also home to powerful research centers like Engineering Research Center for structured Organic Particulate WHY NOT STEVENS OR NJIT/ WHAT IS RUTGERS OFFERING THAT YOU’RE NOT GETTING FROM STEVENS? After talking to the Professors at all of the institutions, I found the work of Professors Fernando Muzzio more fitting with my interests. Specifically, I took liking to the work of Professor Ravendra Singh in the area of Continuous Pharmaceutical manufacturing and upon communicating with him and some of his research students, I found his style of advising to be palatable to my person*. Also, Rutgers is highly reputable with over 20,000 Alumni, I wanted to be part of that history Tell me about Pharmaceutical Engineering Response: Pharmaceutical Engineering is the branch of engineering that deals with the production and formulation of drugs Response: Basically, Pharmaceutical engineering is the development and manufacturing of products, processes and components in the pharmaceuticals industry What will Pharmaceutical Engr/ Chemical Engr do for you in Nigeria?/ What’s your career goal?/ What will you do after your program? First of all, I intend to use the knowledge gained from the masters to move the pharmaceutical industry in Nigeria forward by getting a job upon arrival in Nigeria, also I would also love to work as an adjunct staff in Nigerian institute of Pharmaceutical Research and Development in Abuja where I’ll have firsthand information on the Pharmaceutical Research going on Nigeria. Ultimately, I want to own my own pharmaceutical company whereby the major raw materials will be efficacious herbs from Nigeria Whats your highest level of Education? I have a bachelors in Chemical Engineering from the University of Lagos When did you graduate? 2016 What have you been doing since then? I recently concluded my mandatory National Youth Service corps (NYSC) in Abuja where I was posted to a construction firm (Kaniz Construction) , I’m currently interning with a Pharmaceutical company in Lagos, Mecure Healthcare, I just wanted to famillarize myself with drug production in preparation for my masters. Its an Unpaid internship Did you apply to other schools? yes How many other schools apart from Rutgers Name them Stevens and NJIT Why Rutgers It was an easy decision for me because. At Rutgers, students have the opportunity to be part of an engineering community that includes world-renowned faculty conducting leading-edge research as well as motivated students from a diversity of backgrounds and interests, who remain networked beyond their studies as part of a 20,000-strong alumni association. The chemical engineering department Is also home to powerful research centers with great facilities like 14) How about housing and all? Rutgers has a website for off campus housing, which I have made enquiries on, which I’ll be going for inspection upon my arrival in the US What courses will you be taking? I’ll first of all take my core courses before taking the pharmaceutical engr courses 2 Likes |

Glocal1: I've not googled anything yet but looking at the names of these schools, I won't be surprised if they are just glorified community colleges..but then I may be wrong. Also, YouTube video uploaded when... Note that international students usually qualify for in-state tuition on getting GAs,TAs etc. So I wouldn't search using your criteria, try the funding opportunities, ranking and possibly location first. 1 Like |

mroluyemo:How did you hear about Rutgers? I observed a digression in your response from the actual question. I'd suggest - I was guided by Prof.... /undergraduate preceptor in the the choice of Rutgers. I then personally undertook an extensive internet research for institutions offering this program, using google, usnews.com, gradcafe.com and quora. I followed up and ransacked online repositories ofeducationusa resources on youtube and Facebook. What courses will you be taking? Be explicit and cite core courses and codes as stated in your graduate school catalogue /program handbook. Then, maybe your elective courses that aligns with your research focus. A total of 33/36/42 course units 1 Like 1 Share |
