Biomedical Engineering Personal Statement

When I first entered college, I had thought that I wanted to major in Biomedical Sciences. The reason being, I was diagnosed at the age of 7 with Type 1 Diabetes. I was tossing around the thought that I was interested, possibly, in having a career that involved my disease in it. From being a part of this compass program, I have learned about many careers. Even though I learned more of what I do not want to do, it has helped me narrow down to majors that I am more interested in. I was thinking of still having the possibility of entering the medical field, but I am unsure. Learning about the different careers in the medical field and visiting labs has shown me that it isn't something that I am interested as much as when I first enter college. While I do want to be involved with my disease, I’m not sure if I want to have a career with it, but it could still be a possibility.

It is my hope to eventually become a prosperous biomedical engineer. Even within biomedical engineering there are many distinct fields, and I am most interested in rehabilitation biomedical engineering. I would like to be somewhere where I can help those with disabilities to become proficient in anything they aspire to do; Additionally, I would like to be a part of the design process, although I have an interest in research as well.

Coming from a small town on the east coast, I would have never expected to fall in love with such a large and diverse college like the University of Michigan. The upbeat atmosphere of Ann Arbor alone was enticing enough before I even saw the actual campus. Upon visiting, I quickly realized the University of Michigan was a place I would not mind spending my next couple of years. From the countless students all around to the wide variety of shops in town, Ann Arbor seemed like a lively and exciting place to spend my college experience. While walking through the campus, I was continuously amazed by the large intricate buildings surrounding me. Some of my favorites included the Law Library, the College of LSA and the Michigan Union. While I do not plan on attending it, the Ross School of Business was also an incredible

From numerous computer labs to professional leaders in research, there are opportunities that will allow me to achieve my academic goals at UM that would be otherwise unavailable.

I aspire to become a successful researcher applying mechanical engineering principles to tackle human health issues. My exposure to patients at the VA Medical Center has motivated me to concentrate my academic goals and future scientific career on contributing to technological advancement of human health.

A final pull that attracts me is the abundant and remarkable research opportunities available to me at the University of Michigan – LSA. Research to me has always been an aspiration. Something I could achieve with hard work and dedication. Research is how a field came to be, how we know what we know, and how we got where we are today. To be a part of creating knowledge, I am ready to put that hard work in. I want to bring something special to my field. The University of Michigan – LSA can help me do just that.

The qualities that drew my attention towards University of Michigan’s college of engineering are the Multidisciplinary Design Program (MDP), Kappa Theta Pi, Code-M, and ArborHacks.

In transferring, I hope to further the creative mindset I have gained from being a musician, as well as the analytical skills I have learned in the STEM program to create unique innovations that solve the challenges facing the biomedical engineering field.

The field of biomedical research has always fascinated me. I am most interested in your Department of Biotechnology. The almost-limitless advances in the field have opened up new and exciting opportunities, opportunities that I wish to participate in. Nowadays one has to have the perfect combination of theory and practical knowledge. Biomedical research is one of the most important scientific fields today and is beneficial not only to the individual, but to society as well.

I have always had a love for building and creating. My parents have instilled in me that hard work is how you get to your goals. I hope to attend Clemson University in the fall. I want to obtain a masters in Mechanical or Biomedical Engineering with either a focus in testing and or robotic prosthesis. I have worked vigorously my whole high school career to set myself up for success no matter what path I decide to take.

As I study to complete a Biomedical Engineering degree at the University of Florida I know that I will gain extensive knowledge that will help me succeed in my post collegiate endeavors. Attending the University of Florida will further my knowledge on this field in both classrooms and research labs. By the end of my career at UF I hope to have the skills and knowledge needed to conduct research, work in a research group, and even lead research projects in the Biomedical field. Currently, I am planning on applying to medical school. The hard work and dedication that i need in order to receive a degree from UF will not only increase my chances of being accepted into medical school, but also of being successful as a med-school student, and eventually

The personal statement is by and large used to focus a student’s capacity to overcome accomplish objectives, think discriminatingly, hindrances, and composes adequately. The premise of the personal statement is simple: it's an essay that provides context to an applicant's scholastic record, a face to put in front of the test scores. Length and content requirements for the personal statement vary widely from school to school; some colleges want brief, specific responses to a set of questions while others allow the applicant to give a general outline of his or her strengths. Personal statements are one of the most important parts of the application and sometimes the deciding factor for admission. Biomedical science: Biomedical scientists concentrate

I was walking alongside my mother to a grocery store when I saw a war veteran with an amputated leg sitting in a wheelchair. Being a curious five-year-old boy, I asked my mother, ''Why can't that man walk like us?"     She replied, ''It's because he has no leg."    

For me, the excitement of the field is that biomedical engineering has only recently become its own discipline, and yet allows the professional to truly embrace a multidisciplinary approach to develop devices that have the potential of helping millions of people live a better life. From tissue and genetic engineering to pharmaceutical and neural options, as well as working with medical devices, the field is wide open for new minds, new ideas, and new applications. The field is growing so rapidly that one can hardly keep up. As it seeks to close the gap between engineering and medicine, and as technology improves, the field will become the wave of the next generation of research one in which I wish to be a part of. The sustainability and intellectual robustness of biomedical engineering is one of the ways that I can pursue my own

One of the crucial moments in my life was the decision I had to take; as to what I was going to do next in life. Having completed my Advanced Level in 2013, I realized that it was not the end of my career as a student. I needed strong academic foundation along with other soft skills to meet the challenges and survive in this commercial world as a successful individual. In view of these thoughts, I was unable to make a firm decision as to what my career direction would be. After a month or so of various discussions with my parents, friends and other learned people I was able to reason out the best choice for me.
