Motivational letter...Part 2.....PLEASE Why do I want to pursue a doctoral degree? What are my expectations? I applied for this doctoral degree for these following reasons: Main reason is that I see the doctoral degree as the prosecution of the specialization course started in the magistral's degree. In fact, the magistral's degree in Italy provides two years of course; in the first the students have to follow six courses about the five macro-area of aeronautical engineering, that is: aerodynamics, structures, dynamical and control systems, engines, monitoring systems. After this first year the student is able to choose his area because he knows the basis of these subjects and wich are the subjects suitable for him. The specialization course starts, actually, from the second year in wich each student have to choose his curriculum. At the end of this year, I think, one does not know the subject completley, but he has gotten the substantial elements in order to conduct a detailed studies on it. As I said before, my expectation about the doctoral degree is to continue the specialization course of the magistral's degree. The second reason relates the opportunity to study Dinamical Systems with professors wich have received prestigious recognitions. This is the best situation for a student; collaborating with a high level enviroment is very exciting. Moreover, I followed a course, taught by an important Italian professor, on the adaptive and robust control system and its future reseach options have affascinated me. From this point of view, by the doctoral degree I expect to work in stimulating situations where I will learn a lot. The third reason is the possibility to be indipendent of my parents. I have always worked with them and for them, Despite this It has never been possible to achieve such indipendence. The doctoral degree represents a great opportunity of having my own place, my own salary in a quiet situation, never before reached. It is secondary to the principal reasons, but I need of this change.
