Personal Statement

In my first year in university, I chose to pursue Measurement Control and Instrumentation. This was because I enjoyed studying circuits and geometry. However, this course turned out to be largely about measurement instruments. It was not exactly what I had expected. Nevertheless, during the first half of my maiden year in university, I was able to find the proper course which suited my interests. I find Automation system and Engineering so appealing to me. I thought Automatic System and Engineering was a good option because of its interdisciplinary approach as it sought to provide a seamless fusion between engineering and ...

As the first person to graduate from college in my family, I chose to vary slightly from the norm. I’ve always been something of an overachiever, throwing myself into the things I choose to do with definite zeal. I’ve always been passionately curious, so higher education always seemed like a logical choice for me. Pursuing that first Bachelor’s degree from the University of Michigan wasn’t easy, but quitting was never an option that I entertained. I loved learning and Criminal Justice studies too much to ever truly consider quitting.
In addition to my extensive education ...

The Washington Post’s investigation on Top Secret America contrasts sharply with the general information derived from the previous studies on the American Intelligence Community. The Post posits a situation of unaccountability, inefficiency, lack of transparency. Consequently it opens a Pandora’s Box on the discourse on the efficacy and sustainability of the American Intelligence Community. However, in some few exceptions, the report appears to concur with the position as gathered from previous studies on the Intelligence Community. This paper shall briefly run a comparison and contrast of the Post’s report and previous studies on the Intelligence Community and express some ...

Personal Statement

“Sasha, ihre fahrt ist hier.” At my teacher’s demand, I ran from my seat with such enthusiasm that I have never experienced before, and left behind everything I owned. I raced to the parent pick up line where my mother stood eagerly waiting to inform me of what she thought was good news. My parents were in military, so I spent most of my early life apart from them as they relocated every three years. This day was not only peculiar in that my mother came to pick me up, but it was the last Thursday I would ...

The pursuit of justice, particularly in relation to Intellectual Property Law, made me choose to apply for the law program after school. I was determined this was going to be my area of specialisation. I am particularly interested in copyright and patents, as studying Intellectual Property Law during my Bachelors degree in Russia made me appreciate the issues surrounding copyright and the need for copyright and made me want to study how copyright can be protected. I have research experience in this area, as the theme of my Diploma was about ways to protect authors’ rights, and my final ...

1. The extent to which you feel you have attained the course objectives. Please be specific and address each of the objectives.

I believe that the medical sociology is isolated as a social institution. As a social institution, medicine has value (objectives, principles, and codes), structure, and function, form its organization, symbols, statuses and roles (doctors, patients, government, etc.), the system of vocational stratification and vocational education. Allocation of medical sociology as an independent branch was only in the 50s of 19th century in the United States. For the first time, a new industry was in demand for sociological education student health professionals (Cockerham, 2011).

In this course I found that the concept of demography and the subject of her study and the population ...

In my third year of medicine school at Ross University on November 2008, I was intrigued by a class on open heart surgery of a patient suffering from myocardial infarction. The video documented of each step and explained the logic behind each incision of a heart vessel. This was intriguing to me as what attracted me was the mechanics of the cardiology system. It was like a complex wire system in a machine and an electrician was exploring each wire to find fault; except this time the electrician was a cardiologist. This was even better as the cardiologist was striving to also make sure that ...

Each aspect of life and the application thereof is acquired via some form of education. A newborn infant cries out for its mother, learns her responses to instinctive demands, and thus will quickly formulate the knowledge of wants versus solutions. The young life develops its motor skills, initially applies them for the first steps, and then graduates to the upright gait to freely traverse any environment. In this way, the education process is applied and instilled in every life.
The diversity of language and its functional and often poetic usage define the varied world cultures. Each one is ...

Please provide a statement that addresses your reason for transferring and the objectives you hope to achieve. (361 words)

While I do not like to think of myself as better than anyone else, I know that I am a highly ambitious person. I want to transfer in order to feed this need to achieve and excel. What I need is the best education that I can strive to get, and to be one of the best experts in my major and field. I already know that I have achieved so much in my life already, having moved across the globe to study in a language that I am not proficient in. I have made the Dean’s List ...

Having studied in British system school (Cambridge IGCSE) up to Grade 11 (till aged 16) and in American system school for Grade 12, I finally graduated when I was 17 and understood that now I would like to try a different type of education system. I want to understand the differences and to obtain new knowledge.

My choice fell to Australia because it is well-known for its high standards of education and quality of the obtained knowledge. This is the Motherland of such famous historians as Suzanne Baker and Arthur Basham. Australia also invites by being a ...

Advancing in the field of academics is one of the achievements that many scholars look forward to accomplishing. I am a scholar who is interested in furthering my education in the Joint MS Information Technology and Management /MBA Program at University of Texas at Dallas (UTD). I know that venturing into a new environment always results in various challenges. As such, I anticipate some emotional, social and academic challenges. The academic challenges such as coping with the new teaching methods used by the professors, conceptualizing the various types of assessment procedures, working myself round the volume and pace of the workload, ...

The business person who is both socially astute and civilly responsible is the one that will go the farthest. I firmly believe this, and take it to heart in my interaction with both the world of academia and the world outside the university system. I come to that system intending to pursue a major in business. I believe that by doing so I will be able to give back to my community, and the world at large, through pursuing business prospects that are good for both me, and society as a whole. This outlook enables me to move forward as part ...

In a fast developing world of job opportunities, there are only few careers that remain as extremely important as they were even few centuries ago. I am strongly convinced that Finance can be considered one of those areas of study that will always be a clear direction to take when choosing a career path – in fact, money makes the world go round, and unless you know how it works, you are not able to be a part of the world’s driving force.
I am inclined to believe that my interest in Finance was sparked by my mother. Since she was interested ...

Financial mathematics uses applied mathematical concepts in the field of finance. Whereas an economist may attempt to understand the reasons that a stock is at a given price, in mathematical finances one is more interested in calculating values based on a given price. The basic work involves valuing derivatives as well as risk and portfolio management. This is a fascinating field that while technically challenging is very mentally stimulating. The recent financial crisis has cast doubts on the credibility of the derivatives pricing. It is certain that mathematics was never the problem that lead to the market disaster, rather it was a result of ...

Personal Statement
Since childhood, I have always kept abreast with major developments across the world. However, I had a bias for topics in relation to human rights, especially topics related to the underprivileged in the society at large. The desire to champion for the rights of the underprivileged is one of the primary reasons I decided to pursue law. My pursuit of law is not only an economic endeavour but also a spiritual endeavour. I believe an LLM will heighten my participation and professional impact on the world. I am motivated and highly focused on obtaining an LLM.

Working in a team is both interesting and challenging. In some cases, some employees perform more than others in a group. While team rewards are important, it is necessary to recognise individual effort. There should be a system of evaluating each employee’s contribution to the team. An effective way of doing this is by making leadership rotational, and rewarding performance. Non- monetary rewards are quite useful in this instance.
Employees today are paid base on a number of factors. While performance is an important factor in this form of consideration, the qualifications of an employee also play an important role. In ...

The innumerable challenges facing human beings on a frequent basis intrigue me, and this feeling heighten my desire to help people overcome their medical challenges regardless of their backgrounds and affiliations. Orhan Pamuk’s quote, “I don’t want to be a tree; I want to be its meaning’ has been my greatest source of inspiration when it comes to defining my ambitions in life. I have excelled in academics, and as well produced exceptional results in all aspects of my practical medical experience. My desire and willingness to learn, coupled with my friendly and cooperative nature increases my inspiration and ...

Abstract

Marketing has become a key issue in the 21^st century because of new developments and advancements taking place in the modern society. The consumers and marketers have are progressing and continuing to be diverse and complex. The old traditional marketing techniques are inefficient and are unable to satisfy the requirements of these individuals in the business world. Factors that have contributed to the decline in basic marketing strategies include development of new technology and cultural changes that have generated a disjointed market.

My interest in the business field began when I was nine years old. During this time, ...

I am submitting my application to enter the Master in Criminology and Criminal Justice program to achieve an advanced understanding by learning how the criminal justice process operates. My interests lie in discovering how human behaviour can affect the application of law and how different strategies can be implemented when dealing with preventative techniques and the resolution they are meant to produce. I am very passionate about the study of Criminology as it has thus far challenged my extensive researching skills and enabled me to hone my critical thinking abilities. This field has also taught me the value of ...

I am highly interested in pursuing a PhD project at Xi’an Jiaotong-Liverpool University. This project will involve deep exploration of the subject of low-carbon innovations and the factors that influence them, which is an attractive subject for me (“Theoretical and Empirical Studies on the Dynamic Diffusion of Low Carbon Innovations: the Perspective of Socio-technical System Evolution”). I look forward to applying my knowledge and skills to the analysis of current knowledge and foreseeable trends. My studies thus far, and the fact that this project is set in China, are driving factors in my decision to apply for this ...

A goal-driven Human Resource Professional, I became immensely captured by the topic of transformative leadership during the Military. My ultimate aspiration was to get an in-depth knowledge of the factors that drive individuals to achieve, accomplish something valuable and become better persons in their communities. Having served four years as a leader, and a total of eight years in demanding job environments that required troubleshooting problems, my current aim is to motivate people to such a degree that they predominantly improve in their professional careers. From my all-embracing leadership experience so far, I have acquired wisdom that transformative leadership ...

Throughout my life I have faced many challenges that took determination, perseverance, and discipline in order to overcome. During high school and throughout my undergraduate studies I dedicated myself to the ferocious sports of Kick Boxing and Mixed Martial Arts. Despite my successes that were built on hard work and devotion to self-restraint, unfortunately I suffered a traumatic injury to my knee and in the process shattered my patella, ruptured both the anterior cruciate and the medial collateral ligaments, and tore the cartilage of the meniscus. The recovery from this injury was brutal and I had to undergo four surgeries ...

I am a second-generation Cuban American and the first generation in my immediate family to attend and graduate from college as well as to pursue studies in Law School. I received my Bachelors degree in Marketing from the University of Florida with a minor in Mass Communications. In college I was a member of the Pre-legal Honor Society and held the position of advertising chair.

Whilst my degree was in marketing, law has always been a powerful interest of mine. The specific areas of law that interest me as of now are trial advocacy and litigation, I have witnessed many court proceedings, ...

My intellectual love affair with chemistry and forensic science began in my high school years. I was lucky, during this formative period of my life, to have a series of excellent chemistry instructors and classes; my enthusiasm for chemistry grew throughout these years. I became more and more interested in the discipline; in my free time, I read chemistry books and learned the history of the subject. It was clear to me that I wanted to build a career out of this interest. After I graduated high school, I was accepted into the Abu Dhabi police force academy to complete a study ...

Having liked psychology related activities in both community and academic settings; I gained zeal to pursue a career in general psychology with a main focus in Industrial and Organizational Psychology. At an early age, I got insight about how the society in Saudi Arabia, where I come from, lacks logic. Saudi Arabia is dominated by men; therefore, women do not live up to their dreams due to the existence of social bottlenecks. I pride myself as a great achiever having studied up to this level considering the Saudi culture. Therefore, I believe the skills and knowledge I will gain from studying psychology ...

On the threshold of completing my Master’s degree in Chemical Sciences, I seek to take my research in organic chemistry to the next level. Having a PhD in organic chemistry would work on a positive note for me because it will help me in joining my efforts together along with the knowledge that I have gained until now. To build a heritage for the learning of chemistry, I would like to join McGill University. It is an institution that I have aspired to become a part of for as long as I have determined chemistry to be my field of choice.

My interest in Urban Studies started through a combination of experiences as a child and working adult. I grew up in South Korea in a Christian family and followed commandments from the Bible that were mentioned throughout my childhood. However, in the 11th grade my English teacher, Ms. Case, had Kohlberg’s Six Stages of Moral Reasoning posted on the board and I read it every class session. It gave me a different non-religious prospective regarding right and wrong behavior. At that time, I was at Stage Four: “Maintaining the Social Order”; but knew that I wanted to move to Level 3, Stage ...

Medicine Personal Statement

As I grew up in Saudi Arabia, my home country, I saw the need for highly trained professionals in medical care everywhere, especially public health care and awareness, as the public health care system is rapidly developing. When I was a child, my father was involved in a car accident. Because of his cardiac situation and the lack of trained staff, my father died from his injuries despite the physicians' best efforts. Sadly, accidents like my father's are shockingly common. According to the General Directorate of Traffic in Saudi Arabia, Saudi Arabia has an average of 19.1 road fatalities per day. ...

I was raised in a small city with a developing health care system. Growing up I observed many people struggling to get their basic health care requirements met. Seeing my mother struggle to have access to basic preventative medicine or get a simple physical examination created a strong and lasting impression on me. The provision of basic medical care is important insofar as it staves of advanced disease and insures productive, healthy members of society that can make positive contributions.
The physicians whom I had the opportunity to interact with were extremely busy as they were trying to positively affect the patients that ...

My admiration and inspiration for choosing immunology resulted from a book by Lauren M. Sompayrac on how the immune system works. I was fascinated with the basic mechanism for the human immune system and its ability to produce antibodies that fight toxins as well as reduce allergy cases. Intellectual curiosity regarding immunology deepened when completing my graduation project “Computers, Keyboard and Mice Contamination at ICU,” that resulted in a significant policy change at several healthcare institutions in my country. The project’s strong results eventually led to our paper being published in the Journal of Critical Care (October 2011, Volume 26, Issue ...

You cannot imagine the feeling I had when I first saw my family members falling on their knees begging some ghost to cure a person. People in my country strongly believe that untraditional medicine has a right to exist, that is why growing up in Pakistan I have witnessed a lot of situations when different deceivers, have ruined people’s lives, claiming themselves to be some kind of physicians. Since my early childhood I had a clear understanding that something was wrong with that so called health care system, and I have made a promise to myself to find ways to treat people who ...

Personal Statement: MSc Management, Organisations and Governance (LSE)

I will graduate from the University of St. Andrews by June 2013 and I want to enroll in the MSc programme to enhance my chances of obtaining a position in one of the better UK consulting firms before returning to Morocco to start my own business. I like the variety of options offered by the LSE’s management programme, which would allow me to study those topics that I think are most important for my both personal development and professional career. In my opinion, one of the most important objectives in management training is improving rational and strategic thinking over ...

Prior to applying to become a doctoral student in pharmacy, I began to do some extra reading on the subject to determine the types of careers and models of practice that are available, and how they fit with my own goals and experience. I have done volunteer work in a hospital setting and found that I very much enjoyed working as part of a team in a community or general hospital. I think I would like to be employed such a setting, following a patient-centered type of pharmaceutical practice and assisting patients with finding the most effective medications for their conditions. I have a real passion ...
