Education / Qualifications

The high school certificates and diploma obtained from the Public Authority for Applied Education & Training through the Industrial Institute (high school) in 2010, with a focus on Diesel Mechanics and a GPA of 2.78 out of 4.

Additionally, I completed a Diploma at the High Institute Of Energy in 2013 with specialization in Street Lighting & Emergency Technology, achieving a GPA of 3.37 out of 4.

Furthermore, I am currently in the final year of my Electronics and Electrical Engineering degree at the University of Huddersfield in the UK, having achieved an overall score of 80% (A+ in second year).

Professional Experience

From May 2006 to December 2013, I served as a Third Mechanic Technician at the Ministry of Public Works in Kuwait, where I worked within the maintenance engineering sector, specifically in maintenance administration of roads and networks. My role involved overseeing maintenance operations, ensuring the proper functioning of infrastructure, and managing technical staff.

Personal Statement: Motivation for Studying Power Systems Engineering at UCL

My academic background and professional experience have cultivated a robust foundation in electrical and electronic systems, with particular exposure to energy infrastructure and maintenance. Having worked extensively in Kuwait’s public works sector, I developed an appreciation for the complexity and critical importance of reliable power systems. My current pursuit of a degree in Electronics and Electrical Engineering at the University of Huddersfield has further reinforced my desire to specialize in power systems, especially as global energy demands increase and the sustainability of electrical grids becomes paramount.

I believe I possess the necessary skills to undertake a Master’s degree in Power Systems Engineering. My technical knowledge in electrical principles, coupled with hands-on experience managing infrastructure maintenance, has honed my problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and capacity to work under rigorous conditions. My academic record demonstrates my commitment to mastering complex concepts, and my internship and work experience have provided practical skills relevant to power system operations and management.

I am eager to study Power Systems Engineering at a graduate level because I seek to deepen my understanding of the technical, economical, and environmental aspects of electrical power networks. The rapid evolution of renewable energy sources, smart grids, and energy storage solutions necessitates advanced knowledge and innovative approaches—areas that I am passionate about exploring in depth. Pursuing this specialization will equip me with the expertise needed to contribute meaningfully to the development and modernization of power infrastructure in Kuwait and beyond.

Choosing University College London (UCL) for my studies is motivated by its global reputation for excellence in engineering research, its pioneering approach to energy and power systems, and the opportunity to learn from esteemed faculty actively involved in cutting-edge projects. UCL’s strong links with industry and research centers ensure that the curriculum is both academically rigorous and practically relevant, aligning perfectly with my career aspirations.

The Power Systems Engineering program at UCL particularly attracts me due to its comprehensive curriculum covering subjects such as grid integration, renewable energy sources, smart grid technologies, and system stability. The interdisciplinary approach and emphasis on real-world applications resonate with my professional background and future goals. I am excited about the prospect of engaging in research projects and collaborating with industry partners during my studies, which will augment my understanding and prepare me for leadership roles in power systems development.

My academic success, complemented by my professional experience, demonstrates my capability to undertake and excel in a challenging graduate program. I am confident that my technical skills, motivation, and international perspective will enable me to contribute positively to the UCL community and to the field of power engineering.

Upon completing my Master’s degree, I aim to return to Kuwait and participate in national energy projects, focusing on sustainable energy integration and grid modernization. My long-term professional goal is to become a leading engineer in the power sector, helping to design resilient and efficient electrical networks that support economic development and environmental sustainability.
