Why did you decide to pursue a graduate degree?

When I was a student, I dreamed of pursuing a job in academia since I looked at teaching and research as an approach to bring positive change to the students and the society. After getting my B.Sc. degree, my first job was a research and development engineer where I enjoyed doing research that had industrial perspective. I found my passion in doing research so I pursued a graduate degree.
