志望理由書
私は、身近な人の作業を少しでも使いやすくするプログラムを作れるようになりたく、日本電子専門学校情報処理科を志望します。きっかけは高校三年の文化祭で、模擬店の係が手書きの注文票を何度も数え直していたことです。私は表計算ソフトで商品別の数量を自動集計する表を作り、係の人が注文票を確認しながら使えるようにしました。数え間違いを減らす助けにはなりましたが、入力する人によって表の見方が違い、作れば終わりではないと感じました。
この経験から、利用する人が迷わず使える仕組みに関心を持ち、卒業後はオンライン教材でPythonの基礎とHTML、CSSを学んでいます。短い練習では、入力した予定を一覧に表示する画面を作りました。しかし、動けばよいと思ってコードを書き、後から直すときに処理の順序を説明できないことがありました。エラーを一つずつ調べる習慣はつき始めましたが、アルゴリズム、データの扱い、設計を基礎から結び付けて学ぶ必要があります。
大学で幅広く学ぶ道も考えました。その上で私は、短い制作を繰り返し、基礎を確かめながら技術を身につける環境が今の自分に必要だと判断しました。二年間でプログラミングだけを急いで覚えるのではなく、実習で試し、説明し、直す過程を重ねたいです。日本電子専門学校情報処理科は昼間部二年制で、未経験者が段階的に学ぶための「5段階ステージアップ学習法」を掲げています。初学者として学び方そのものを整えたい私に合うと考えました。
特に一年次のアルゴリズム、プログラミングⅠ・Ⅱ、SQLを通して、思いつきで書いた処理を順序立てて考え、データを扱う土台を作りたいです。二年次にはシステム設計実習とWebプログラミングで、画面だけでなく、利用する人の目的から必要な機能を考える練習をしたいです。卒業制作では、基礎科目と実習で学んだことを用い、必要な機能を整理して形にする経験を積みたいです。まず基礎科目と実習に継続して取り組み、その後に自分の関心と力に応じて選択科目を検討します。
入学後は、授業で作ったプログラムについて、何を入力し、どの順序で処理し、どんな結果を返すのかを短く記録します。実習では、分からないまま進めず、質問する前に試したこととエラーの内容を整理します。卒業制作に向けては、役割を分けて作業するときにも、画面やデータの変更がほかの人の部分にどう影響するかを伝える練習をしたいです。自分の考えを説明し、他者の指摘で修正する姿勢を身につけます。
将来は、利用する人の手間や迷いを減らす業務用の仕組みづくりに、プログラマとして関わりたいです。文化祭の集計表のような小さな改善でも、使う人の確認の仕方を聞かなければ役に立たないと学びました。まずは基礎を確実に身につけ、任された機能を理由とともに説明し、周囲と協力して改善できる技術者を目指します。その出発点として、貴校情報処理科で学ぶことを希望します。
Career direction
Why this career direction
The school wants to understand why you are willing to keep learning this skill. Explain your interest through a small problem you actually helped solve, then turn skills you have yet to acquire into specific learning goals.
Show a concrete situation
模擬店の係が手書きの注文票を何度も数え直していたView Japanese manuscript · Paragraph 1This sentence identifies the place, people, and recurring task, grounding the interest in a visible need.
Why it matters:Reviewers can see why you became interested in software, beyond simply saying that you like IT.
Preparation methods and common pitfalls
How to prepare:Review the first paragraph in this order: who was doing what, what was inconvenient, and how you took part. Keep only details you witnessed or handled yourself.
What to watch for:Do not add figures for time saved or errors reduced when you have no records to support them.
Keep the first attempt within its actual limits
作れば終わりではないと感じましたView Japanese manuscript · Paragraph 1The spreadsheet helped with counting, but users understood it differently. This turns the experience of completing a tool into a reason to keep learning.
Why it matters:Acknowledging an unresolved problem shows that you understand a program must account for how it is used.
Preparation methods and common pitfalls
How to prepare:Describe one thing the work actually did and one thing it could not yet solve, then connect the latter to a learning goal.
What to watch for:Do not describe making a spreadsheet once as a full software development project, or claim it has been widely used.
Present self-study as ongoing preparation
Pythonの基礎とHTML、CSSを学んでいますView Japanese manuscript · Paragraph 2The scope of study is limited and specific, and matches the input and list-display exercises mentioned later.
Why it matters:Beginners do not need to pretend they already have professional skills. A clear starting point is more credible than vague enthusiasm.
Preparation methods and common pitfalls
How to prepare:List tools or learning materials you are actually using consistently, and choose one small exercise you can explain in two or three sentences.
What to watch for:Do not equate watching a tutorial with mastering a language, or add qualifications you have not earned or work you have not completed.
Courses and practice
How courses and practical training help
When choosing a vocational school, explain what kind of training you need. Connect your current programming difficulties to the department's published foundational courses, practical training, and graduation project.
Build on foundational courses
アルゴリズム、プログラミングⅠ・Ⅱ、SQLView Japanese manuscript · Paragraph 4The official website material supplied by the applicant lists these first-year subjects. The manuscript connects them to two areas the applicant cannot yet explain clearly: the sequence of processing and the handling of data.
Why it matters:A course name demonstrates fit with a school only when you explain why you personally need it.
Preparation methods and common pitfalls
How to prepare:Open the curriculum page for the relevant year. For each course you want to mention, write one sentence explaining which specific difficulty in the manuscript it would help you address.
What to watch for:Do not merely list subjects; explain how each course would address a difficulty already described in the manuscript.
Make practical training part of your learning method
システム設計実習とWebプログラミングでView Japanese manuscript · Paragraph 4The official website material supplied by the applicant shows that second-year courses provide practice in thinking about functions and purposes of use. The manuscript does not inflate this into a promise of employment.
Why it matters:This shows the applicant understands the need to learn design and revision processes as well as how to build pages.
Preparation methods and common pitfalls
How to prepare:Connect one published course to one gap in your preparation, such as moving from being able to build a page to explaining why a function is needed.
What to watch for:Do not equate building pages with already being able to design a system from requirements. Explain which step still needs practice.
Learning readiness
How each paragraph shows readiness to learn
Keep a consistent thread from experience and self-study foundations to course choices and career direction. In particular, check that you distinguish what you can do now from what you intend to learn after enrolling.
Paragraph 1 · Experience and motivation
プログラムを作れるようになりたくView Japanese manuscript · Paragraph 1The opening states the ability the applicant wants to acquire, then uses work at a school festival to explain where that aspiration came from.
Why it matters:Readers can immediately see the connection between the application goal and the applicant's own experience.
Preparation methods and common pitfalls
How to prepare:Include both the subject you want to learn and your target school in the first sentence, then support it with one concrete situation.
What to watch for:Do not substitute school history, facilities, or industry prospects for your own reasons.
Paragraph 2 · Preparation and gaps
処理の順序を説明できないことがありましたView Japanese manuscript · Paragraph 2This sentence identifies a real difficulty in self-study, making the later need for training in algorithms and design a natural next step.
Why it matters:Credible preparation includes both what you are already doing and what you cannot yet do.
Preparation methods and common pitfalls
How to prepare:Find one part of an exercise you cannot explain or maintain, and describe it in plain language.
What to watch for:Do not erase mistakes from your experience or exaggerate them into serious failures.
Paragraph 3 · Why choose a vocational school
短い制作を繰り返し、基礎を確かめながら技術を身につける環境View Japanese manuscript · Paragraph 3This paragraph acknowledges university as another path, then explains why the applicant currently chooses an approach that emphasizes repeated practice and checking the basics.
Why it matters:Interviewers will probe the reasons behind the choice. This paragraph provides an answer that fits the applicant's current stage of learning.
Preparation methods and common pitfalls
How to prepare:Explain your choice through the learning method you most need, such as repeated practice, feedback, or a systematic review of the basics.
What to watch for:Do not disparage university or assume a two-year program lets you skip the basics.
Paragraph 4 · Matching courses to difficulties
データを扱う土台を作りたいView Japanese manuscript · Paragraph 4Each course name is followed by an ability to develop, rather than a vague claim about improving technical skills.
Why it matters:This makes the official website material supplied by the applicant serve a personal learning plan.
Preparation methods and common pitfalls
How to prepare:Check that each course name is followed by an action, such as organizing, explaining, designing, or checking.
What to watch for:Do not cite an outdated timetable. Recheck admissions and curriculum materials for the relevant year before submitting.
Paragraph 5 · Practical learning habits
試したこととエラーの内容を整理しますView Japanese manuscript · Paragraph 5Recording inputs, processing, and errors before asking questions is a specific learning action suited to a beginner.
Why it matters:The school wants to see how you will use practical training, beyond a promise to work hard.
Preparation methods and common pitfalls
How to prepare:Choose one action you can take in every exercise, such as recording tests, writing down questions, or reviewing the reasons for a change.
What to watch for:Do not promise never to make mistakes. Focus on how you will handle them.
Paragraph 6 · A realistic career direction
業務用の仕組みづくりに、プログラマとして関わりたいView Japanese manuscript · Paragraph 6The role of business systems programmer identifies both the work and the role. The later references to explaining functions and improving them collaboratively clarify the abilities to develop.
Why it matters:This returns to the first paragraph's interest in making work easier, bringing the essay to a close.
Preparation methods and common pitfalls
How to prepare:Write whose work you want to help with, what kind of work it is, and which foundational abilities you need to develop now.
What to watch for:Do not claim you will definitely join a particular company or present a single student experience as a professional achievement.
Skills and actions
Explaining skills and personal actions
Exaggerated skills become apparent under follow-up questions, while overly abstract descriptions hide your preparation. Refer to your actual work to explain its input, processing, results, and one revision you made.
Priority 1 · Explain how the spreadsheet was used
係の人が注文票を確認しながら使えるようにしましたView Japanese manuscript · Paragraph 1This sentence already gives a use case. If the applicant still has the spreadsheet or remembers using it, they can add one input rule or checking method.
Why it matters:Specific details make it easier to discuss and explain what you actually did in an interview.
Preparation methods and common pitfalls
How to prepare:Add just one real practice from your own files or memory, and explain in one sentence what it solved.
What to watch for:Do not invent participant numbers, sales, feedback, or outcomes to make the account seem specific.
Priority 2 · Be able to explain your self-study work
入力した予定を一覧に表示する画面View Japanese manuscript · Paragraph 2The direction of the work is clear, but it could include one input, one displayed result, and one reason for a revision.
Why it matters:Interviewers often use small projects to ask about your thinking process, beyond which language you used.
Preparation methods and common pitfalls
How to prepare:Practice a 30-second explanation of what is entered, what is displayed, and where something went wrong or was changed.
What to watch for:Do not call an unpublished exercise a service, or claim someone else's tutorial project as an independent development.
Priority 3 · Connect learning to a graduation project task
卒業制作では、基礎科目と実習で学んだことを用いView Japanese manuscript · Paragraph 4A graduation project can provide a concrete goal connecting foundational courses and practical training, but the essay does not yet explain which task the applicant wants to tackle first.
Why it matters:A clear, small task turns a desire to study hard into a plan that can be carried out step by step.
Preparation methods and common pitfalls
How to prepare:Choose one small problem from the school festival spreadsheet or your current scheduling exercise. Write down the users, inputs, results, and items that need to be assigned and checked together.
What to watch for:Do not treat the graduation project itself as an achievement. First explain how you want to use what you have learned to address a limited task.
Interview explanation
Explaining skills and choices in an interview
An interview may ask you to explain a project or why you chose a vocational school. Prepare concrete examples based on the manuscript, and clarify your learning approach and career goals.
Why not choose university directly?
大学で幅広く学ぶ道も考えましたView Japanese manuscript · Paragraph 3Acknowledge the value of university study, then explain why you currently need repeated practical training to strengthen your foundations.
Why it matters:This question checks whether you compared your options before choosing, rather than treating vocational school as an easy option.
Preparation methods and common pitfalls
How to prepare:Answer in three sentences: the learning method you currently need, the department's published practical training and learning stages, and how you will participate.
What to watch for:Do not characterize university as harder or vocational school as easier, or imply that you can study fewer basics.
What did your summary spreadsheet solve?
商品別の数量を自動集計する表View Japanese manuscript · Paragraph 1Explain how order data was entered and what results the spreadsheet returned. Acknowledge that it did not resolve differences in users' understanding.
Why it matters:Interviewers use this to judge whether you did the work yourself and can reflect on the limits of a tool.
Preparation methods and common pitfalls
How to prepare:Prepare a real example with one input row, one summary result, and one manual check.
What to watch for:Do not give figures for time saved or error rates that you cannot substantiate.
What is your current skill level?
エラーを一つずつ調べる習慣はつき始めましたView Japanese manuscript · Paragraph 2This sentence supports an honest explanation: you can complete small exercises and are learning to debug, but still need a systematic understanding of algorithms, data, and design.
Why it matters:The school needs to understand your starting point and readiness to learn, rather than hear exaggerated claims of proficiency.
Preparation methods and common pitfalls
How to prepare:Bring one small function you wrote yourself, and explain what you checked first when an error occurred and what you learned afterward.
What to watch for:Do not present copying code or watching videos as complete mastery.
How would you develop something with other people?
ほかの人の部分にどう影響するかを伝える練習View Japanese manuscript · Paragraph 5You can begin with group assignments or jointly organizing materials, focusing on how you share changes and accept corrections.
Why it matters:Collaboration skills do not require experience on a company project. The interview looks at whether you can communicate and make corrections during practical training.
Preparation methods and common pitfalls
How to prepare:Practice a simple situation: after changing a field or screen, whom would you tell first, what would you explain, and how would you check the effects?
What to watch for:Do not invent team projects, clients, or leadership roles.
Submission and sources
Submission checks and sources
First check your own work on the order summary spreadsheet and your actual skills. Then review the departmental courses, program duration, and relevant year's application guidelines supplied by the applicant. School information cannot replace personal experience.
Personal facts
Check the school festival spreadsheet, your responsibilities, how it was used, and your actual study records for Python, HTML, and CSS. Distinguish what you witnessed, what you did yourself, and what you inferred later.
School and department
The official website material supplied by the applicant lists Japan Electronics College's daytime Department of Information Processing as a two-year program with a capacity of 140 students. Open the application guidelines for the relevant year before applying to check the program duration and intake.
Courses and practical training
The official website material supplied by the applicant lists algorithms, Programming I and II, and SQL in the first year of the 2026 curriculum, followed by system design practice, web programming, and a graduation project in the second year. Course content may change; check it again before submitting.
Submission requirements
First read the relevant year's requirements for the statement of purpose, length, selection process, and international applicants. When shortening the essay, retain experience, current gaps, course connections, and actions after enrolling, and remove repetitive praise.
School and reference materials
About this sample: these school facts were supplied in the source-material field by the sample applicant, using the official website. The tool does not search school websites; school facts you have not provided in the source material will not appear in the text.
Practice plan
Recommended preparation exercises
Restate your career interest, self-study foundations, course connections, and actions after enrolling in four sentences. Then describe the input, processing, output, and revision process of one small program.
One-minute recap
Without looking at the manuscript, explain in four sentences what you observed, what you can and cannot do now, why you want to study in this department, and how you would begin practicing after enrolling.
Annotate an exercise
Write down a small program's input, processing, output, and one error correction. This helps you answer questions about your skills and learning methods.
Practice explaining collaboration
Choose a shared task. First explain what a change would affect, then record the other person's questions and how you addressed them.
