Are these linking words correct in this paragraph?

Hi, the following sentences is part of my essay? Are these linking words all right?

I wish to pursue doctoral study at the University of S in Canada this fall. This is partly due to the fact that I am getting fascinated by Canada's research atmosphere after I once worked at Lakehead University as a visiting scholar for one year with Dr. X on his NSERC grant. Also, I have a strong belief that North American education system has the best to offer in the whole world. Another reason has to do with the state-of-the-art research facilities and the world renowned and productive faculty of the university.

By the way, are there any other errors? Thank you very much!
