Scholarships are primarily for undergraduates, and very rare at graduate levels. You have no realistic chance of any scholarship, especially as a foreign student, unless your country has some program to send its "best & brightest" abroad to bring back essential skills for your country's development. If you don't have the money for grad school, you go to work & save up your money for grad school.
You do not need a master's for entry-level positions in your field. Furthermore, engineering demand has fallen sharply over the past year. US: over 100,000 engineers laid off in the past year.
Mass layoffs of engineers in Canada, Australia (over 20% of their engineers), UK & more. You are now competing for any job with those who have experience, and employers value experience more than a master's these days. You must get an internship, and try to work your way into entry-level positions.
You have to prove now that you can actually perform on the job. Go to work, and that can only be in your country of citizenship.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
