As I graduate from high school, and enter into the next stage of my life, I have many aspirations and hopes for the future. This fall, I plan to embark on a new journey and start my undergraduate degree in kinesiology. I am excited to learn about my passions, and in the future I am looking forward to being able to help others and benefit their lives in a positive way. After I have completed my Bachelors of kinesiology, I aim to further my education and receive a masters in physiotherapy. I want to do this because I find this profession fascinating and very rewarding. I have been injured in the past, and those injuries prevented me from dancing, which is what I love doing. When I wasn’t able to dance because of my injury, I was …show more content…
My parents are divorced and as a result of that, I have spent over half of my life going between my mom's house and my dad’s house. I would love to be able to live in one place, where I can settle in and not have to move around a couple times per week. In addition to living in one place, I would love to have a place of my own. As a part of the new adventure of attending university, and becoming an adult, I think it is very important to be able to live by yourself and to learn how to do that. I believe that university residence is the perfect place for me to experience all of these things. While living in one place I will be able to get into a routine that works for me and that can ensure my best possible success. I will no longer have to alter this every few days, depending on where I am living. Furthermore, I will have the experience of living alone and being independent, but, if I do need some help or support, there are many other students, living in the same building as me, who are experiencing the same things. I also believe that living in residence adds a cultural and social benefit to people’s university experience, because you can easily participate in activities around campus and be in close proximity to everything. This scholarship will benefit me in helping to relieve some of the financial stress I know I will be under throughout my first year and as well as throughout the entirety of my degree.

What are your specific career goals for the future? How does this scholarship fit into your plans to achieve these goals?
Introduction, The field of public health, is emerging with growth and opportunities. Now more than ever is an exciting time to join this thriving career path and become part of bettering the community and environment. Through strengthening collaborations, conducting research, or analyzing data, public health graduates can find employment in the public or private sector, within nonprofit organizations, or in local, state, and federal health departments. Also, clinicians can enhance their skills with a community-based perspective.
My career goal is to receive my doctorate degree in Occupational Therapy. I would like to work with geriatric population because they are more vulnerable to disabilities from chronic illness that results in them being put into nursing facilities. I want to specialize my education on physical disabilities. I have experience working with the geriatric patients who are physically disabled and I hope to help them keep their independence. My goal is to help geriatric patients gain valuable skills in order to keep their independence and have the ability to live at home. As an occupational therapist, I will help patients do things they want to do through therapeutic methods of everyday living. I would teach them new ways of doing daily actives after suffering from a disability. For example, a patient who had a stroke, I would reteach this individual how to hold items, how to button shirts, and so on. I would prefer to work at patients’ home or in a clinic setting; however, I am open to working wherever my skills would be needed. Since I want to work in the patients’ home, my main goal is to evaluate and change their home, so it is easier for them to stay independent. I have an interest in working with patients who have developmental delays; however, I need to observe an OT specialized in that field to know for certain if that is something I would like to specialize in.
Professional Goals: I still have a little time left to figure out what grade it is that I want to teach. I’m honestly lost in this because I most enjoy working with college level student, but I absolutely love elementary level children as well. Over the past few years, I have worked here at Lone Star College under a few different titles. I was offered a job while taking a 1302 English class. The next semester, I began to work in developmental classes. I have supported several different English class along with some Educt classes as well. It has been my job to tailor the information that the professor has covered to meet the needs of my students, and I’ve become quite good at this. I am currently a Level III Master English tutor, and the Peer

My academic goal is to graduate Argosy University with a bachelors degree in Forensic Psychology in three years time. Forensic Psychology is the study of the criminal mind, in a nutshell. The main motivation to achieve this goal would be intrinsic. I love asking questions and knowing the answers as to why people do what they do, and in a criminals case, what led them to committing the crime. This goal, however, may have some extrinsic motivation as well. Being knowledgeable about certain behaviors that criminals poses may help solve or even prevent a crime. In addition, having a degree will help open different paths in life, ones that may present me with greater job opportunities. My attitude toward the learning process will help my achievement of each goal because I am eager, determined and motivated. My greatest desire is to succeed in life, and obtaining an education is one thing I know will help me. I perhaps will need to make some adjustments along my journey. I do not know yet if I will find another educational path that intrigues me the most. For now, I do not feel that any adjustments need to be made.
For the past five years I have been an elementary school teacher, and this experience has helped me to identify where my career goals will lead. My interest in the Doctor of Education Organizational Change and Leadership program is to become a staff educator. I would like to guide teachers how to use data to drive their instruction in the classroom.
Ultimately, my personal career goal is to help elucidate the molecular pathways of neurological disorders, while also being able to apply my knowledge directly to patients. Thus, a course plan within the Molecular Basis of Medicine (MBM) foundational area, combined with a Neuroscience, Behavior, and Cognition application, would be perfectly tailored to my interests. Though I have experience in bench work at the Champagne Lab, and bedside work at NYPH Weill/Cornell and TCC Health Care respectively, I am truly interested in the bench-to-bedside approach taught extensively throughout the MBM program. The Stanford Neurosciences Institute would provide a myriad of exciting opportunities for pursuing further research into the molecular biology and
Public policy and government affects the entire environment in which society operates in. Policy shapes the circumstances by which civilization can either flourish or diminish the quality of life for others. It is through this ability that I want to pursue my graduate degree in government and public policy. I believe I have both the ability and prudent skill set to help further the ideals of society in a thoughtful manner. These ideals, ultimately will further the quality of life for society in a manner that is mutually beneficial for all parties involved. It is in this pursuit that my graduate studies in government and public policy will be of immense benefit.
Throughout the last few weeks, I have been doing the time management monitor. This project has opened my eyes to how much time I am not using that I could be utilizing for planning my career. My major goals for this semester are to decide on a major and use this first semester to find a day to day rhythm. I also want to use this semester to find new friends and adjust to life in college. Doing this time monitor, I have realized that I have spent more time making friends and adjusting than I have done homework. I also have found out that I have not done much to help me decide what to do in my future.
Dr. Orison Swett Marden once said, “All who have accomplished great things have had a great aim, have fixed their gaze on a goal which was high, one which sometimes seemed impossible.” Goals are important for the reason that they keep you focused on what you want to accomplish in life and gives something to work towards. My first personal goal is to return to the soccer field following my ACL injury. My second personal goal is to one day have a family of my own. My professional goal in life is to graduate college and become an occupational therapist.
Going to college has been a dream of mine growing up. I am the first ever in my family to go to college but figuring out how to pay for it has been a challenge. I desire to achieve my academic and career goals and this scholarship can help me succeed in my journey.
In life there are certain limits a person can get to. Everything can be achieved as long is wished for and its fight for and done for. My goals and aspirations in life are to become a lawyer to graduate from the University of Arizona and get a good job and to be able to buy a house and car.I plan on achieving my goals by maintaining a plan and follow that plan in order to be achieving my goals persuade myself to do so and to lack in any way. Currently, I'm a senior at Sunnyside high school I try living my life to the fullest and having fun as my time of personal freedom almost up as adulthood is just a few steps ahead not that you can have fun when your older but is a lot different from when you where a teenager and it can though but I know is worth it at the end.
What is your career goal? What steps have you taken (or will take) to reach your goal?
The future is a time or a period of time in which we follow through from the moment of speaking or writing our intentions. It is a time that has yet still to come. The future is what we work for, to go through school and have a career, in order to have a better life. My parents have taught me to work hard for the things I want, and I wish to have a bright future. That is one of the reasons why I am here at CI, to get an education that will help me find a career with sufficient salary that will support me and my future family.
