I have been interested in a job in the science field since I was in third grade; I would read any book I could get my hands on about biology or anatomy. The information I gathered didn’t just stay in my head; I wanted the people around me to learn and be excited about it, too. Since, my passion for learning about science has only continued to grow. In and outside of school, I regularly work to prepare myself for a career in biomedical engineering. If I am accepted to the University of Carolina at Chapel Hill, I believe it will continue to open the door to different pathways that I have been striving for since a young age.
Throughout my pursuit of knowledge, I consistently noted that I didn’t see myself in this field. The lack of representation
My academic and research experience at University of Washington helped me realize the importance of health science and that I am suitable to study biomedical sciences. UW is well known for its rigorous health science programs and biology related courses. However, my resolve to do well does not falter a bit when I am challenged with the demanding coursework. Rather than being daunted by the challenge, I feel compelled to expose myself to the vast knowledge of the biology due to curiosity and passion. I thank UW for the hardship because it makes me more determined to go into biomedical sciences.
Biomed Academy at my high school will be the most contributing factor to attain my goal. This academy has changed my perspective about medicine career. I have gained tons of knowledge from BioMed academy in these high school years. This will help me to attain my goal, because the knowledge gained from this academy will help me to be a successful medical professional. The principle of Health Science, Health Science, CNA, psychology, Biology, and anatomy and physiology are classes that prepared me to be an eligible Pre-Med applicant. I have learned from the basic structures of the body to the complex structure of the body, and from classroom to hands-on experience at the rehabilitation center. These years in BioMed Academy will help me to attain
Science has always been one of my favorite subjects, an always found myself fascinated by it. In elementary school, while most of my classmates dreaded going to school, I always looked forward to it. Everyday I would make sure to get to school early, because I just couldn’t wait to see what new things we would learn each day. My eagerness to learn hasn’t changed as I have gotten older. Although attending Harper College has allowed me to obtain my associate's degree, I am now ready to move on and work towards earning my bachelor's degree in Speech and Hearing Science.
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.
The most progressive discoveries of all time have two elements in common: a component of critical thinking and a component of creativity. It is these two dimensions that led to my selection of biomedical engineering as my major. After being a student at Harford Community College (HCC) for two years, I recognize that I have reached my full potential here and need to transfer in order to continue growing as a student. As an active member in the STEM program, majoring in Chemistry with Calculus-Based Physics at HCC, I developed the necessary logistical skills and analytical mindset needed in order to grasp concepts and utilize them effectively. In addition to my academic pursuits, I have continued to develop myself as a musician by playing at various events as well as improvising my own music.
Biomedical engineering not only satisfies that desire, but it grants me a head start in medicine. The biomedical engineering program offered by Lone Star sets me up for success in a 4-year university. Once graduated from Lone Star, I wish to accomplish my high school goal of attending the University of Texas at Austin. Acceptance itself is a rather hefty task, but doing so with an Honors Associate of Science may just make all the difference. After completing my degree in biomedical engineering, I seek to begin a new journey in medical school. Of course, no medical school is easy to become a part of, but if Lone Star Honors can push me through to the University of Texas, I believe that it can push me even further. As I finish my education in health care, my final goal is to thrive as an orthopedic surgeon with a practice to call my
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
As a Biomedical Science major, I have continued to pursue my interest for the fields of science and medicine. In doing so, I have learned a great deal about my personal interests and what I am passionate about. Conducting undergraduate research has played a large role in this. Through managing my own projects or working under a primary investigator to aid them in their own, I have learned that I enjoy the laboratory setting and the opportunity for exploration it provides. In addition, my experiences outside of the class room, so to speak, have also continue to provide me with inspiration for pursuing a career within the field science, specifically pertaining to medicine.
These local opportunities revealed to me the power of innovation to solve problems and change lives, and I began to see that I wanted to work with people to create feasible, sustainable solutions. The piece of STEM that I found the most intriguing was engineering and the field: biomedical engineering.
My academic interest is geared towards pursuing a master degree in the field of biomedical informatics with a view to becoming a problem solver and a major contributor to new discoveries in the field. I would like to pursue a career in research, development and teaching of methodologies, processes and tools that improve the efficiency and effectiveness of information flow as well as usage in the healthcare setting. I would like the output of my work and research to have significant influence towards improving patient care outcomes whilst reducing information costs in the entire healthcare system.

This is important in order to improve health outcomes through information system in both the private and public sector of the healthcare.
Although creating art is a very big hobby of mine, I have come to the conclusion that it is nearly impossible to be successful in that kind of field, so I have decided that using my interests in the human body and biology would be a much better career path. I love learning about the way the human body works, it’s extremely fascinating to me, but I have not always been the best in STEM subjects. If I’m being completely honest, STEM classes are the ones I struggle with the most. Majority of the time I get so frustrated with a certain subject, like math, that I feel like giving up. The reason I have still not given up and want to pursue a career in STEM is because I enjoy challenging myself and my skills.
From an early age, I have been fascinated by how things work. It seems, listening to family, that I was never satisfied with a simple answer that machine runs on power; but always wanted to know more. As I completed my undergraduate education in ________, I became more and more interested in pursuing an advanced degree in Biomedical Engineering. My well-rounded educational pursuits thus far have served me well, engineering complimented by a sound background in the humanities and hard sciences. I have, though, a robust passion to learn more, to hone my skills even more in a field that has simply exploded over the past decade biomedical engineering.
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.
