A Reflection On Ids 180-01 And How It Has Impacted Me

Studying abroad is important to me for a multitude of reasons. The most pressing of which is,

Adapting to a new environment is challenging for most people who first go abroad to study, so a person must be resourceful and resilient. When encountering numerous challenges, you should find some solutions to overcome it rather than give up. There is nothing quite like being on your own in a foreign country. You might find that studying abroad really brings out your independent nature. Students who study abroad become explorers of their new nation and really discover the curiosity and excitement that they harbor. A benefit to studying abroad is the opportunity to discover yourself while gaining an understanding of a different culture. Being in a new place by yourself can be overwhelming at times, and it tests your ability to adapt to diverse situations while being able to solve the problems. I believe studying abroad bring me a lot. It not only makes me improve my English but also make me how to solve the problems when I

This greater sense of complexity within the world would enhance my personal and intellectual progress. Studying abroad would establish my ability to communicate and connect with other nations and cultures. It would widen my view of the world and even help me have an improved understanding of the culture I live in. Working to understand it would be a prodigious start to developments, within myself and learning to transform the world around me for the better. My overall experiences granted through the university would exponentially escalate, aiding me in becoming a self-sufficient, confident person. I want to do my absolute best for myself and those around me, which means doing my best to fully understand the world I live in. The better I can understand and work efficiently in the circumstances we live under, the quicker our world can progress into a greater state than it is currently in. Increasing my critical thinking skills and awareness of what is happening around me can help me transform the society we live in and enable me to pass that knowledge along to

I decided to pursue medicine while I was attending high school in Kolkata, India and fell in love with biology. I enjoyed engaging with people and developing meaningful relationships. I was looking for a path that would provide me with the skills to help others, both in my home country India and abroad. I felt that medicine can offer me an enriched career with the perfect balance of scientific challenge, intellectual stimulation and personal collection. Surrounded by the Himalayas in West Bengal, India, medical school further inspired my intellectual curiosity and cemented my professional identity.

Based on common interests, I formed lifelong relationships with my classmates even though initially I was ignored due to my race. Having interacted with individuals raised in PA, allowed me to understand the culture of the area while providing further motivation to practice medicine here as well.. I also preserved my Indian heritage in a town where one percent of the population is of Asian descent. Raised in an Indian household, taught me the rich culture and history of India but I also observed the culture of rural America and combined both perspectives. I have been able to effectively communicate with any individual regardless of what part of the world they come from. I strongly feel my childhood experiences will help me immensely in practicing medicine by developing a great patient-physician rapport in any area as a doctor, who happens to be a

Some of the main characteristics everyone believes a doctor should have are, open-mindedness, awareness, and compassion. These are all characteristics I embody but will expand on as I grow more mature and learn more about my surroundings. To “study abroad,” technically means “the act of a student pursuing educational opportunities in a country other than one’s own.” But I think it is much more than seeing an opportunity. I believe it is a journey of learning. I trust that the things students learn abroad build their character and make them more hard working,

Medical school’s purpose is to prepare students to become doctors, allowing them to have a positive impact on their patients’ lives. However, medical school is bias with its teaching, because it believes its’ methods are the only way to treat medical problems. This idea is becoming more problematic with the diverse cultures coming to America. With each culture comes more boundaries for biomedicine to face. Instead of trying to cross these boundaries, biomedicine strictly believes that their knowledge of medicine is far superior to other cultures. The problems that occur due to these barriers could be overcome if the doctors were able to

When I applied to colleges, every single one was in California because I didn’t see the sense in leaving my home state. Now, I am ready to leave; but that doesn’t mean I’m not scared. Many students study abroad for a semester but I know that to really immerse myself in a new culture I need to be there longer. It’s going to be hard to leave my friends and family for the full academic year but I also know that it’s something I need to do, and more importantly it’s something I want to do. I expect I will be homesick at times but I am confident that I will be able to become involved in Danish culture rather than being stuck in the past. I am aware that this won’t be an easy transition, but I’m also aware of the fact that sometimes the harder you work for something, the more worthwhile it

Education is a never-ending learning process that has always been a piece of our life. As education is a building block in our lives, we are eager to put profoundly into our education. Good education will lead us to the bright future. With the fast advancement of public opinion, we have entered an era of information explosion which the necessity of studying abroad has turned into a developing pattern among youth. Most of the students feel that studying abroad is better than studying in local universities. As the saying goes, “the grass always looks greener on the other side of fence.” In this way, I believe that considering abroad have extraordinary points of benefits.

My parents have supported me and my love for science despite their own struggles, teaching me the importance of selflessness. I believe selflessness is one of the most important values a person can obtain, and it is of even more importance to a physician. Growing up in New Mexico has allowed me to understand that diversity is not purely a factor of ethnicity, gender, or religion. Diversity is what makes a person unique based on their morals, interests, and perspectives on the world. New Mexico has given me the opportunity to perfect how I learn about each individual I come in contact with and how to appreciate their uniqueness. Appreciating the diversity of every individual can sometimes be difficult, but growing up in New Mexico has allowed me to explore diversity in ways most people have not experienced. I believe that there is a barrier in communication between doctors and their patients because most people do not accept individual diversity as they should. I plan to use my understanding and appreciation of diversity to benefit the medical community by knowing how to provide care to each

I feel studying abroad will enhance my energy for academic goals and will strengthen my interest in learning. Also, my lifelong goal has been to start my own trading firm and globalization is a huge part of trading. I need to know the ins and outs of the foreign markets and studying abroad will increase my knowledge of how foreign countries do things. These days business is all about globalization and I wont be successful in globalization if I don’t get to see the world through with my own eyes.

Because of internationalism, many universities and technical institutions have opened their doors to applicable foreign students enabling global education. This has brought gigantic benefits to students around the world. The students are given opportunities to study a path they are passionate about that are might be inaccessible from their own country; this is especially true to the students that came from underdeveloped nations. As an example, there are students from developing countries that migrated to North America or Europe to study. It benefits both the students and the universities as it allows cultural diversity within their institution which creates a new ground of overall social experience to transferred students and original students, and also, cultural development of a student community. This counter many oppositions of internationalism; however, people may argue that when a student from a certain country may carry diseases that may infect other students and staffs. Although, a medical problem will also be resolved by internationalism, as stated earlier, that it allows economic relationship with other nations. Through, medical personnels that are capable of solving these medical issues will aid to prevent it from occurring. By giving opportunities to these students are also caring about them, like they are “our countrymen,” as said by the

Global health programs have become an essential part of medical school training. In the United States, 47% of all medical schools have some degree of global health programs that aim to reduce disparities through research, education, and service by educating medical trainees in the classroom and on the field (Crump & Sugarman, 2008). Such fieldwork includes service trips intended to benefit the host country, educational experiences to encourage future career involvement in global health, or a combination of both (Crump & Sugarman, 2008). Although research has demonstrated that international health experiences are beneficial for trainees and enhances cultural sensitivity, clinical/communication skills, and public health awareness, there are

What motivates me to pursue university education abroad? Well, the last couple of years have been a long bumpy ride for me, however, the First

When I heard that our MBA trip abroad was going to be to Copenhagen, I was in 7th heaven. I have always wanted to go to the Scandinavian countries, Copenhagen—“the happiest place on earth”, it was a dream come true.
