Suggestions and corrections greatly appreciated

Describe your academic interests and how you plan to pursue them at USC. Please feel free to address your- first and second- choice major selections.

I have always been fascinated with the way things work where design meets function and purpose. I notice design in everything from fashion to buildings to airplanes and marvel over the creativity that inspired those elements. I plan to pursue a future that will allow me to incorporate design through engineering or possibly architecture. Aeronautics is one field of engineering that draws my interest. It is the dynamics behind flight that interest me most, the factors that allow aircrafts to fly at such great elevations and high speeds and how those designs continue to improve. Every time a fighter pilot jet flies overheard, some people complain about the noise, I on the other hand stand in amazement dreaming of the day I will be able to create that amazing piece of machinery. I not only want to be able to design an aircraft but also want to fly one and explore the world of the skies unknown. I find engineering to be so complex and astonishing. It is remarkable to witness what centuries before, was only a dream of mankind to soar with the birds, an idea that challenged the views of society and revolutionized the world. I also find great interest in the field of biomedical engineering it is a study that applies science and mathematics to improve human health. I was watching a lecture that explained exactly what biomedical engineering was; it captured my interest, and is a topic I would want to learn more about. Both types of engineering improve the way we live our lives, I want to be one of those that contributes to the improvement and development of the world. College is the place that will allow me to make these interests a reality. It is the place to learn and enhance the skills needed to be a successful engineer. USC provides superior education along with the opportunity to gain the experience necessary to succeed in the field of engineering. "Learn by doing" is a motto I hope to follow, to through new experiences and opportunities provided through a USC education.

Broke this into 2 sentences. But good effort overall.
Please look at my USC essay. Thanks!!

(Aeronautical engineering) - Essay for Career Goals

Any corrections are greatly appreciated...In 500 words or less, describe how you intend to utilize your degree/course of study to positively impact your field, and ultimately, the greater community

Aeronautical engineering is the field that most greatly peaks my interest. It is the dynamics behind flight that interest me most- the factors that allow aircrafts to fly smoothly at great elevations and speeds. Every time an airplane disturbs the quiet of my thoughts, I stand in amazement, dreaming of the day I will be able to construct that astonishing piece of machinery. It is remarkable to witness what centuries before, was only a dream of mankind- to soar with the birds- an idea that challenged the views of society and revolutionized the world. It is inspiring to see the extent to which the first airplane has developed, and to ponder the possibilities aeronautics holds for the future.

As I look more into the field of engineering I am amazed at the technological advances mankind has made today. I want to one day work for Boeing. Boeing is the company that best suits my interests and future career pursuits; it is a company that leads in the field of aviation. "We know why we're here: to connect, and protect, to reshape and redefine, to design, to build and deliver, to dare, to imagine and to dream, that's why we're here." The words of Boeing employees elaborate on my desire to pursue a degree in engineering, and a future at Boeing. With my degree I will be able to help connect multitudes of people all around the world. It means connecting the world in a larger degree through improved efficiency and reliability in commercial design. This provides the possibility of changing the way people travel today, to make it a better experience and reduce the negative environmental impact. It also means protecting those that depend on technology to hold up to its intended purpose for not only commercial usage, but also for the safety of our nation. It is protecting those that protect us- those that serve our nation in the armed forces. Through advances in defense technology this can save the lives of many in the force, and protect people around the world. Planes are used to take man where it is too dangerous to go, through unmanned missions and aid in humanitarian efforts to deliver desperately needed supplies to nations in need. It means improving not only existing designs but developing and redefining those designs to a higher standard, so that they are more efficient and can aid in attaining new discoveries. This is the possibility of exploring world's unknown and venturing deeper into space.

The achievements in the field of aviation inspire me to ponder the possibilities the future could hold. I dare to dream of the possibilities my future holds, and dare to dream that my dreams can be put into action to create a change in the field of aviation for a common good.
