Statement of PurposeOverviewYou will write a "statement of purpose" as required by most graduate school applications. You may think, "Hey, I am not going to graduate school. Why do I need a statement of purpose?" Even though you may not be planning on going to graduate school right after graduation, many people complete a master's degree after several years in the workforce. A statement of purpose is an introspective essay on what interests you about math and/or computer science. This is useful in gradudate school applications because it helps communicate who you are and why you are interested in the mathematics and/or computer science. Knowing your strengths and passions will help you accomplish your goals, even if it is simply looking for a job after graduation. You can do a google search for statement of purpose to get some ideas about how to write such a document. Many university graduate school programs and associated websites and have good suggestions. See advice below.
