Career Goal: Health Studies 131, Kinesiology 275 (Fcs/342)

High School: In High School there are some specific classes I need to take. When I looked on CFNC.org I noticed that most of the classes it recommended me to take were related to mathematics, science, and career specific classes. In order to be a sports medicine physician you need to be good at math and science. My suggested plan said to take Algebra 1 and 2, Geometry 1, Biology, Physical Science, and other classes.

The start of my exercise science journey began when I was a little kid. I played sports throughout my childhood and into my senior year of high school but my desire to really exercise started when I went to gym class. I thought our Gym teacher, Mrs. Starnes was the coolest lady and I enjoyed how she could talk about our bodies and knew different activities that got everyone to exercise. Also, I loved watching college football and baseball as a child and remember seeing that when the athletes would get hurt; that they would get help from one or two people who would try to find out the problem and what happened. When I was little, I did not know that the job that I saw on television would be one that I would be aiming towards as I got older.

Throughout my high school career, I had a great variety of classes ranging from Civil Engineering and Architecture to Anatomy and Physiology. I was, and still am, interested in just about everything. At the University of North Dakota, I chose to pursue an Interdisciplinary Studies Degree with an emphasis in Health Science and a Minor in Biology. This allowed me to tailor my schedule to include courses I needed as well as courses I was interested in. As evident in my transcripts, I took a little bit of everything and I loved every moment of it. Although I wasn’t yet focusing on a certain career path, I was certain that I wanted to ultimately pursue a career in the medical field. Specifically, I have recently found that chiropractic will allow me to enrich the lives of others while exhibiting lifelong learning

Both courses introduced me the some of the basic skills and terms that I will need to competently accomplish my duties as a Radiology Technician. Secondly, Medical Terminology has provided me with a basic understanding of all the organ systems in the human body and I believe it has aided in my success in Anatomy and Physiology I. As for Basic Health Profession Skills this course alone can be considered valuable to most wanting to enter into a health profession. It is my opinion that this course has single handedly prepared me for just some of the sights, sounds, and smells that I will encounter in a medical facility. Moreover, this course has effectively informed me of the proper ways to interact with patients and their families as well as doctors and other staff members. For me this is an exceptionally important lesson to learn since it does not matter how competently you perform your duties as a health care provider, if you are unable to respect those around

There was no specific answer from her what I should take, because there really is not much at a high school level that can prepare me for my major. At that point, I was more questioning the high school, and why I needed certain classes that I did not need for this type of field. I began to find some things that may be close to helping me in college with my major such as Project Lead the way classes, they had a kinesiology class my junior year, and medical terminology. I began to be in Project Lead the Way classes, because those were the classes that were not in the medical charter school that I was able to learn about different medical professions, learn basic anatomy, some diseases, and some basic information about other health professions that I ended up finding helpful in my profession that I wanted to pursue. Kinesiology was a good class in the fact the Kinesiology is the study of the bodies movement, so I thought that would be beneficial. At my hometown state college, athletic trainer is a pre- with a major in Kinesiology, so I figured it was a good base class to start with. Throughout high school I also did not take the full class of medical terminology for college credit, but I took intro to medical terminology. Which was prefixes and suffixes of medical terminology, and I found out this year that I do need to take it for my Athletic Training major, so I am glad that I ended up taking the pre medical terminology, so when I take it, it should be a little bit easier since I already have a background on it already. Thinking back about extra classes that do not obtain to major specifics, not only broadens our minds, but gives us more connections to people and other experiences that can make us even show, support, and care more than what we thought we would have ever cared about towards

During the five years at Trinity, I have gained a lot of knowledge and experience to succeed. My passion has always been Science; I have been interested and curious about the anatomy of the human body. The classes that motivated me to pursue a career in health are Anatomy and Physiology, Medical Surgical and Mental Health Clinical, Religion of the World, and Health and Wellness Programming.

My major is Kinesiology and with my degree I hope to become an athletic director. The main reason why I am taking this course is for my minor where I plan to have a background with Health Service Admission.

The career that I have chosen and have currently been accepted into the program would be a Medical Assistant. In addition, for me reaching my goal I still have a long way to go, but I plan on accomplishing my dream of becoming a medical assistant. I will have one more semester that will include classes such as, Math, English 114, as well as other prerequisite classes that I must finish before I can take any official medical classes. After accomplishing those prerequisite classes I can then take my medical classes, however they must be taken in sequence throughout the semester and I must do well in all of them to remain in the program. Furthermore, for me to become a medical assistant at my college you must attend a 2-year program that leads

HonorHealth Volunteer Services Scholarship CV Currently, I am in the process of earning my Bachelor’s degree in Biology with a pre-medical emphasis from Grand Canyon University. Upon graduation, I hope to attend either a medical or physician assistant school. My specific goal in the medical field is still up in the air, however, I am avidly exploring the fields of pathology, oncology, emergency medicine, and surgery. My interest in the medical field was sparked by my human anatomy and physiology class during my senior year of high school. Put simply, my life in high school was rough, and I was completely lost, as far as my career decisions were concerned. I enrolled in a human anatomy course, to fill a hole in my schedule during my senior

My educational goals are attending a four year university getting a bachelors degree in science with a minor in chemistry. Throughout my time in university I would also like to become a certified Phlebotomist and EKG technician. With obtaining my bachelors in science and minor in chemistry this will be

For my career, there are required courses that I have to take but also some that I should take. The five important courses that are important to my future career would be math, Science , English , Two or more years of foreign language , and maybe speech. Some extra significant ideas to help me further in education would be to take computer classes or go and get credits at the Greene Technology Center by taking the health/ science field.

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

My immediate goals after being accepted into the academy include becoming knowledgeable in the basic skills of both the scientific field and the medical field. I hope to be challenged by courses that will help me build a foundation of intelligence for my future career. Using these skills I would like to be able to narrow down my choices in choosing an occupation. I realize that this

The courses I’m required to take such as English and Science will help me acquire the skills and abilities for my future occupation being that one English gives me communication skills so that I may interact with people more accurately. While science gives me an

Science plays a role in my future career because it involves many characteristics alike to chemistry biology etc. My college major is Nursing as an Transplant Nurse what they do is assist in procedures in which an infected organ is to be replaced with a donated healthy organ of the same kind.
