Business Minors

Biology is an important subject, one in which one can learn about living things. I believe biology will allow for me to succeed in college and within my career plans, mainly because I aim to work in the medical field. In order to become an Optometrist, I will need to be both educated on the human body system and familiar with the anatomy of the human

Biomedical Engineering is offered at many different schools, as its own degree. The minimum requirement is usually a bachelor's degree in biomedical engineering, in order to get your bachelor’s degree you will have to complete combined courses of general engineering, and

Courses I have taken that are relevant to my career interests are biology, chemistry, Principles of Biomedical Science, Human Body Systems, Medical Interventions, advanced genetics and applied biotechnology, and physiology. Biology and chemistry have provided me with a basic science background that is essential to understanding more advanced science courses. Human Body Systems and physiology have helped me to learn basic anatomy and physiology through hands-on activities like constructing organ systems out of clay and dissecting a cat. In addition, I learned how basic biomedical science knowledge and research methods in Principles of Biomedical Science and continued this

I have been interested in science and math since I was a young girl. When high school began, I had the opportunity to take PLTW Intro Engineering Design. While I enjoyed the content of the course, I was disappointed in the lack of interest and engagement many of my classmates had. Applying math and science skills to solve, or at least have a deeper understanding of everyday or technical problems, intrigues me, because I enjoy hands-on problem solving. I plan to study engineering in college, however, I realize that I need more exposure to how science, technology, engineering and math function together in the professional workplace before I determine my major of study. I expect to gain exposure and hand-on experience through the TARGET program

Internships are extraordinary opportunities to learn and grow. Internships are mostly designed to expand the depth and the breadth of the academic learning in the particular areas of the study. Internship is an opportunity to receive experience in applying all formulas, methods, theories in the classroom to specific experiences in the real world and to see how it actually works.

In the beginning I chose three minors that I felt would be beneficial to many aspects of life and business. The first chosen was communication. Communication is essential in all that we do, both professionally and socially. Without being able to articulate and receive information properly, we would not be able accumulate or disperse knowledge needed to perform to the best of our abilities. For my second minor I chose public relations. Public relations is how the public perceives an individual or organization. And how person or company responds and communicates to situations pertaining to the individuals it serves.

decided to major in becoming an EMT. EMT program itself is a very broad occupation with many

I am currently planning on majoring in Neuroscience and specializing in Occupational Therapy. I am planning on taking my basic Biology and Chemistry classes during my first year at Simpson. These classes are challenging courses that assist me to gain knowledge for my intended major. I put a lot of time into studying for these

My larger vision is becoming a biomedical engineer. What interests me most about the field is the intricate combination of two seemingly opposite characteristics. Engineers are sometimes seen as people who are on an elevated level of intelligence, but a below average sense of interpersonality. As a Biomedical Engineer, you are required to interact closely with patient. It’s impossible to complete a job without getting to know a patient. You have to identify their ailment or whatever else may be troubling them, and incorporate different levels of math, science, and technology to resolve the issue at

I was drawn to engineering by the potential for creativity and an enjoyment of the pursuit of knowledge in science. This course of study did not come easy to me though, and as I worked further through my major, I realized that the rewards for my efforts were not as fulfilling as I once thought they would be. To me, engineering lacks the interpersonal relationships, the person to person interactions, that are prevalent throughout medicine. I want to make a difference in people’s lives first hand, and pass on the same hope that was given to me. Determined to finish what I had started, I obtained my engineering degree and turned my focus toward continuing education in pre-medical science. The values and lessons that I learned as an engineering student have built a solid problem-solving foundation on which I can excel as a medical student and professional. As engineering students, we analyzed mechanical and chemical systems and used our knowledge of the physical characteristics and forces of these systems to predict and prevent potential failures. If a failure was unable to be prevented, a failure analysis would be conducted using a bottom-up approach to compile all the data and determine a cause. These practices are congruent with those in the medical field. At their basis, biological systems are a product of physical and chemical phenomena. As a continuing education student

Science and Math have always been the 'things' for me, and it ultimately led me to a great interest to major in college. There are pulling factors for these subjects: logical reasonings, systems of equations, and the complexities of the concepts; they taught me the true joy of learning. Unable to take multivariable class and advanced science classes, I was disappointed, but realizing that Boston Universtiy offers such

Aspiring biomedical engineers in high school should complete biology, physics, and chemistry courses as this will allow them to reach academic goals in college (“How to Become a Biomedical Engineer”). Math courses such as algebra, geometry, trigonometry, and calculus are required in college and are highly recommended to be taken in high school (“How to Become a Biomedical Engineer”). Once in college, aspiring biomedical engineers need a Bachelor’s degree in biomedical engineering or biological sciences to ensure the proper education and knowledge requirements for their complex duties (“How to Become a Biomedical Engineer”). Graduates who choose to further their education to a Masters or PhD have the option to specialize in biomechanics, biomedical

At the moment I am only interested in one major and that major is biology. I absolutely love science, but more than that I love the medical field, this is why I chose this major because once I graduate I will further pursue my career in the medical field as a licensed obstetrician. In biology there are many skills that you must have, here are is a list of some of the skills needed and they are as follow; adequate knowledge in science and math, the ability to learn and pick up on new things fairly quickly, being able to understand what you are taught/told and then be able to rephrase it in your own words. My strengths related to this major are, I am very good at understanding science courses it is my best subject, and I have a passion

My career goals are to gain as much information that is necessary in my field so as to be able to apply it further into my future endeavors of pursuing medicine and business. Both the bachelors and masters will come in handy to see me through my career path.

Biomedical engineering is a field where you will be finding solutions for the problems inside your body using engineering principles. Then, once you pursue a degree in biomedical engineering then you can specialize in various interesting subfields; to name a few, bio-engineering, tissue engineering and cellular engineering where an individual who has successfully acquired sufficient knowledge in the field would deal with both human body and medical devices that ranges from clinical equipment to micro implant. I believe this field is one that would both accommodate the interests of an engineering student, as well as a medical student. Finally, my intention in choosing this field goes beyond my salary package. I would strive to contribute with improved advanced medical technology that would help work out solutions for the problems encountered by people, that in turn will eradicate the ailments of the millions of people suffering out there, together with the fact that bio engineeing is an ongoing one where every moment new advancements are taking
