Homeland Security Personal Statement

I am drawn to AmeriCorps because of its commitment to service and matching members to non-profit organizations. I am truly interested in AmeriCorps' service missions including poverty reduction, literacy and youth development, and mentoring. I served as a volunteer helping organize activities for neglected and abused children at the Children’s Advocacy Center, served on a committee for children’s literacy with Better World Books Drive, and volunteered for Big Brothers Big Sisters and American Red Cross. I am comfortable interacting with youth and children. I have always envisioned myself as a leader involved in improving the health of populations and serving my community and I aim to continue the work of improving the missions of anti-poverty

I am interested in attending the Future Agent in Training program because when I was about 8 or 9 I realized I was really interested in becoming an FBI Agent. I started watching television shows such as Criminal Minds, Law and Order SVU, and Without a Trace and I couldn't get enough of it. I would spend all day watching those shows because of how fascinating and interesting it was to me. When I reached my freshman year in high school, I tried to get into criminal justice and add it to my electives, but unfortunately my counselor told me that criminal justice wasn't open to freshmen students, so when time came to start selecting courses for my sophomore year, I asked my counselor again and this time she said I could and I immediately signed

I am committed to personal and professional excellence. My communication skills are excellent and I do take responsibilities seriously. I am open to learn new things to grow in a long-time

I have been interested in Technology and certain aspects of Science since I was a child. As I became older I came to a realization of how much I love Technology; I began to excel in my technology and engineering classes but not do as great in my science classes. I began to loathe science as I took upon the love of Engineering. As I have researched different types of engineering in previous years, I have stumbled across Agricultural and Environmental Engineering. I have decided instead of seeing science a challenge I cannot overcome I should work harder to be better at the subject. Therefore, I can combine my love for the planet and horticulture with my love for technology and engineering. Having an internship at USDA as a Senior will further help me achieve my goal of having a career in the STEM field. I feel having an Internship my senior year will cause me to further succeed as the research I will hopefully be doing can cause me to grasp a better understanding of the different types of careers open to me in the future.

Due to my abilities and previous experience, I can be considered a valuable candidate because I demonstrate the qualities of leadership, scholarship, service, and

I want a career at NSA because at the NSA I will be able to use the skills that I have gained throughout my life to best protect and defend my country. Since around my freshman year of highschool I have felt a calling to serve my country, this calling urged me to explore the military and other public service careers. However, I felt my skills of technology and engineering were not quite what the military was looking for. So I explored further and found the NSA, an agency, part of the Department of Defense, that could allow me to use my skills to best serve my country. The Stokes Educational Scholarship Program would be most beneficial to me and the United States because it will allow me to build further on the skills I know now through a college education, summer internships, and finally a guaranteed employment for my country.

I hope to use my law degree to change the lives of mistreated children from all over the world. As a victim of child abuse, serving this community has become a part of my identity. My aspiration to represent mistreated children, albeit vitalized by personal turmoil, has been intensified through professional experience. Through my work with Child Protective Services (CPS), during an internship with a family law attorney, I developed my passion for advocating on behalf of children. While working on CPS cases, I have seen how the lives of children can improve through diligent efforts by authority figures. However, I have also witnessed the shortcoming of the system as well where there is room for improvement. These vulnerable children deserve

I am a highly motivated and reliable person who is eager to succeed. Additionally, I am a well-rounded individual who succeeds academically, engages in sports, and helps out in the community. I have experience through volunteer work and jobs where I have worked with a variety of people and provided quality service. I am a hard worker who is able to complete tasks exceptionally in a

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security was formed more than a decade ago with a very significant mission of safeguarding America's homeland from hazards, threats, and national disasters. This department conducts its mission through securing the country's borders, preventing terror attacks, and responding to incidents or threats to its citizens (Miller, n.d.). Generally, the most important roles of the Department of Homeland Security are to lead a concerted national effort in securing the United States and preserving the American way of life. The department was established in 2002 in reaction to the 9/11 terror attacks and has since developed a nationwide strategic plan for evaluating and updating its mission statement and effectiveness of operations. These plans can be updated and transformed to accomplish the needs of the Department for Homeland Security and the American people.

I am interested in this position because my future goal is to become an executive human resource professional. This position may be the first step in that direction. Moreover, I have performed

The idea of securing the nation’s borders and securing the safety of the citizens has been a major topic since the beginning of the nation’s existence. There have always been means and procedures for it but it was never defined to the point it is today. The Homeland Security Department is a fairly new program which is constantly improving and adjusting in accordance to the threats that may arise. In the attempt to secure the United States, homeland security has become paramount and a lot of emphasis is being provided so as to ensure the safety of the borders and the citizens of the United States. So one must ponder what the difference between homeland security and homeland defense are since they both tend to mean the same

Homeland security is also the degree I am perusing. Fortunately our degree in Homeland security does not have a comprehensive track or an applied research track. The track you are taking in terms of electives are similar to me accept I am taking HM 505: Planning for WMD and mass causality crises, instead of HM540: Crisis Intervention. After getting through this class we start getting into our core classes and the journey truly begins.

The purpose of this paper is to define and give as much detail information about Homeland Security in the United States and law enforcement and how they are integrated. I hope after reading this paper you will be well informed on the duties and responsibilities of these agencies. People have always lived in fear but with the help of these agencies we will no longer have to live in fear. I will try to give as much detail information as possible to help with any problems or situation that might come up. Homeland Security in the United States and law enforcement have extensive research skills and knowledge in serving and protecting citizens and other important groups and agencies. Homeland
