My Career Goals

My long-term goal with my college education is to complete my Bachelor's degree and eventually continue on to receive my Master’s degree in criminal justice. The first step to complete my long-term goal is receiving my Associate’s degree in criminal justice by May 2017. This goal is specific, measurable, attainable, realistic, and timely.

Going to college has been a dream of mine growing up. I am the first ever in my family to go to college but figuring out how to pay for it has been a challenge. I desire to achieve my academic and career goals and this scholarship can help me succeed in my journey.

I’m applying to this program because I want to pursue a career in college student development in a program that gives its students a wide variety of hands on experiences. I’m looking for a program that combines traditional classroom teaching with the opportunity for multiple internships and practicums. Additionally, I have grown to find a home at Appalachian State and I would like to continue my education at this university.

My academic goal is to graduate Argosy University with a bachelors degree in Forensic Psychology in three years time. Forensic Psychology is the study of the criminal mind, in a nutshell. The main motivation to achieve this goal would be intrinsic. I love asking questions and knowing the answers as to why people do what they do, and in a criminals case, what led them to committing the crime. This goal, however, may have some extrinsic motivation as well. Being knowledgeable about certain behaviors that criminals poses may help solve or even prevent a crime. In addition, having a degree will help open different paths in life, ones that may present me with greater job opportunities. My attitude toward the learning process will help my achievement of each goal because I am eager, determined and motivated. My greatest desire is to succeed in life, and obtaining an education is one thing I know will help me. I perhaps will need to make some adjustments along my journey. I do not know yet if I will find another educational path that intrigues me the most. For now, I do not feel that any adjustments need to be made.

Professional Goals: I still have a little time left to figure out what grade it is that I want to teach. I’m honestly lost in this because I most enjoy working with college level student, but I absolutely love elementary level children as well. Over the past few years, I have worked here at Lone Star College under a few different titles. I was offered a job while taking a 1302 English class. The next semester, I began to work in developmental classes. I have supported several different English class along with some Educt classes as well. It has been my job to tailor the information that the professor has covered to meet the needs of my students, and I’ve become quite good at this. I am currently a Level III Master English tutor, and the Peer

My minor goals included remaining in professional wear at all times and memorizing the student’s names. The reason I wanted to do these two things was in order to 1) distinguish myself as not being a peer and 2) to make myself seem as professional as the teacher, himself. Overall, my goals were achieved, but the apparel goal was easier than the memorization of names.

In the coming years, my educational goals will be coming my undergraduate program in May 2017 and then beginning a Masters program for secondary English. My passion for teaching has always been centered around with working for disadvantaged students in low income schools. Growing up in a low income household myself, I know the necessity of education and how it can bring you out of poverty. My long term career goals is to create a curriculum that combines culturally relevant practices into mainstream teaching because I believe through experience, students learn the best when they can relate it to themselves. My plans are to, if accepted into the MAT program at Alaska University, attend the program and then find a school in the state to work

Considering the career plan, my immediate career goal is to work as a Data Analyst in an investment bank or Internet company. Data Analysts often need to dig the information behind the data to answer the questions of market operation to guide high-level business decision-making, precise data mining or advertising. In fact, there is also a growing number of large data need in the company's recruitment of data analyst. By learning statistics in graduate school, I believe I can process data precisely with my professional statistic knowledge. However, the same data has inconsistent content in the eyes of different people. A good data analyst is able to find the problem through the data, to position problems accurately, to find the cause of the

At age fifteen, when most of my time was spent moving around, I engaged in a new interest. It was easier to show my emotions through the lens of a camera rather than making new friends all the time. Shortly after i graduated high school, word got around that i took great photos; It slowly became more than a hobby.

Currently, I am a second semester junior with a major in business administration and a minor in health care studies. With the latter I hope to be able to utilize my business skills and knowledge in the realm of healthcare. My short term careers goals at this point in time include building my network. This past year I had the opportunity to attend a lot of events on campus and off that have allowed me to meet amazing individuals across varying sectors. Giving me the chance to learn from them and hear more about their experiences and the choices they made in their lives that got them to the point they are now.

My educational and career goals are to major in either psychology or sociology. My plan is to get my master’s degree and begin working as a high school counselor where I will be able to help teenagers who are struggling and help them make the best decisions. I have decided to take this path because there are many students who aren’t aware of the opportunities that they have. Besides checking to see if students are on track for graduation, counselors should let students know about opportunities that will help students in their future like financial aid, exploring college majors, or other helpful resources. Counselors are often only thinking about graduation, but they should motivate those students to think about higher education. In my opinion,

I have worked in both the high technology and biotechnology industries supporting engineering and operations in startup, low and high volume and cGMP manufacturing environments.

Growing up, there were several different career paths I wanted to take but was not reachable at the time. Throughout my high school my career goal was to be a civil or mechanical engineer. At the time, it wasn’t clear to me what an engineer’s job function is. My family urged me to pursue that dream just because of the perks that comes with it such as money. Math was never my strong suit, neither was school and to become an engineer, several mathematics courses are required. My first two years as a transfer student in college, I had no idea what my career path should be if engineering doesn’t work out. After taking careful consideration, working in the tech industry was something that needed to be done. A few friends of mine gently pushed me in that direction, but my vision to pursue a career in tech was a bit fuzzy. Eventually I started leaning towards business, but by then it was already too late for me to switch majors. I chose Sociology as my major because I found the courses interesting to learn, and it is something I can apply to business. Earlier this semester, I decided to push towards specific fields such as sales or human resources. Eventually, I do see myself in a leadership position at work such as a management position in my workplace. I do believe I have what it takes to become a manager, but only after being with a company for some time so I can understand the concepts and how to adapt to the given environment.
