Personal Statement For MS In Pharmacology

From there, I began to explore more of what a career in pharmacy would mean and take the steps necessary to pursue my dream. As I reflect on the past and look forward, becoming a Doctor of Pharmacy is still the clear answer to achieving both my immediate and long-term goals. My immediate goal is to work towards additional education to be better equipped to utilize my undergraduate degree. In particular, I have a strong interest in applying my knowledge of biochemistry to the area of pharmacy in order to better understand how different medications work, how to help patients understand their medications, and how to solve problems to better care for patients. Ultimately, through achieving a Doctor of Pharmacy degree, I desire to develop a meaningful career that would allow for life-long learning and impacting lives.

My strongest impetus for the study of this major is pegged on the personal urge to improve the lives and health of those around me. I would only be able to serve the health of others when I am fully acquainted with the knowledge of pharmacy, which to me is one of the noblest professions. I am deeply concerned about the welfare of others. My experiences, especially as I visit hospitals form a significant part in influencing my choice to study pharmacy. At one point, I felt very bad when a pharmacist in a hospital I had visited was very indolent in serving a patient. All human beings would feel adored and valued when they are given appropriate attention in regard to their health. The health profession has a mission geared towards safeguarding people's health and that mission is perfectly in sync with my desires. I want to be exceptional, to do my best in caring for people, and attend to their interest to the best of my knowledge. I admire nourishing hope to desolate patients and always give them a reason to

My childhood unleashed a desire to know how things worked and why things happened; this soon flourished into a more specific interest in the field of Pharmacy. Medicine fascinated me, driving my obsession to understand all of the dynamics of pharmaceutical drugs. My studies in Biology at New Jersey City University, and my current occupation as a Certified Pharmacy Technician, led my desire to go further with my education in pursing an advanced degree as a Doctor of Pharmacy. My undergraduate career has prepared me extensively, such as requiring that I take on a wide range of science-based courses including Biochemistry, Genetics, and Microbiology. My hard work and dedication led to me being on the Dean's List for a number of semesters. I was also honored to be part of The National Honor Society of Leadership and Success and The Tri-Beta Biological Honor Society.

Through the training opportunities available at this university I will have the ability to pursue further interaction with patients while strengthening my pharmacotherapeutic knowledge related to specific disease states. In the course of achieving my short term goal of achieving a pharmacy residency, I will be able to refine and hone my clinical expertise as well as expanding my research and teaching abilities. Upon completion of this training, as well as my post-doctorate training, my plan is to obtain a position as a clinical pharmacist in a specialized patient population. The exposition to a variety of different areas of pharmacy practice will undoubtedly shape the direction which I choose to pursue, though I know that currently my primary field of interest is ____. By continuing to pursue this field, I will be better capable of teaching students in the future as well as conducting research in a variety of pharmacy

I am interested in this program because it'll help me career wise and help me with personal growth. After I graduate high school I am planning on following the pre-med track as a major and this program would help me get a sense of what its going to be like as a pre-med student prior to me going to a college or universities, if I join their medical science track. In addition, although I want to study pre-medicine and science I haven't had much opportunities to study the different branches of sciences outside my school's curriculum, which is usual regents based and they only have 1 AP science class, AP environmental science which isn't the field I am interested in. Furthermore, I would like to join the program because they also focus on helping

I became captivated by the opportunity to apply my knowledge of the biological and chemical sciences in a way that one day may save a life. Though my interest stems from my experiences, my passion to pursue this field lies elsewhere. Growing up in a family of low socioeconomic status in an area with few sources of acceptable health care, I saw my parents struggle as they aged to provide my siblings and I with a proper education. There were times they would ignore their own illness in order to save funds for an emergency for us. Observing this, I knew that no matter how difficult of a path I picked, regardless if it was pharmaceutical sciences or the medical field, my parents had concurred greater difficulties. Growing under such conditions, I began to realize the disparities in quality of treatments my parents received compared to those who of a higher socioeconomic status. This motivated me to pursue a career where I would be given the chance to offer care to individuals through unbiased views. Of course, there are a plethora of careers that can fulfill this but medicine has presented itself as very unique to me. It promises a lifestyle devoted to empathetic patient care, direct patient interaction, and a boundless opportunity to learn and experience something new. As the end of my undergraduate experience is forthcoming, I look forward to taking on the next phase of my life, endeavoring to join the ranks of tomorrow’s

Last year, as a part of the school medic club, I was given the task of giving a presentation

I chose to complete a Master of Science in Public Health for several reasons. First, I have an interest in research and wanted to build on my proficiency of analytical methods in the field of health. Second, the role of prevention in medicine is invaluable, especially as chronic disease prevalence continues to rise. Last and most important – I believe that in combination, medicine and public health can integrate both the individual and systems paradigms to establish an all encompassing approach to health care that addresses both prevention and treatment

My mother has had type II diabetes since I was 7-years-old. In November 2009, two months after moving to the United States from Cameroon, her condition worsened. Doctor visits were not an option at the time due to the cost and my mother had difficulty walking. This meant that I had to go to the pharmacy to get buy her syringes and insulin (Novolog). Being able to translate the instructions of the pharmacist into French for her and seeing the role of a pharmacist in a patient-pharmacist relationship was an eye-opening experience for me.

I was very excited when I joined Saint Petersburg College. I felt that I just began my journey toward earning my degree. Since my childhood, my parents understood the value of education, they used to do everything they can to instill in me the love of studying and learning the importance of hard working. My mum taught me how to arrange my time and implanted in me the goal to be a pharmacist. I really appreciate my parents advices and I wish one day I can make them proud of me, and graduate from SPC with pharmacy pre-baccalaureate, and complete my education journey in USF and earn PharmD degree.

These experiences cemented my confidence that pharmacy was the choice for me. In particular, one example that stuck with me was when I shadowed a clinical pharmacist in the Intensive Care Unit of a hospital. The educational and cultural enhancing opportunities that I witnessed were astounding and really hit home with me. Through the interdisciplinary work alongside other health professions such as doctors, social workers, and dieticians, the pharmacist was able to advise, yet also gain new knowledge from other professionals and apply it to his area of expertise. This allowed the pharmacist to have a unique outlook and perspective when assisting a patient.

I received my Bachelor’s degree in physics in 2009 in Vietnam while I witnessed two deaths of my two 65 years old uncles due to medical related errors. Their unnecessary deaths at that relatively young age struck all my family members. I asked myself whether, if someone in my family had worked in the health care field, it might have been possible to save my uncles’ lives. As a science major student in Vietnam, I felt an urge to apply scientific knowledge to improve the situation. Over time, I came to realize that, in order to make a difference, I would need to gain a deeper background in understanding the mechanisms and the principles behind the field of medicine, a pharmacy major.

Earning MSN degree would allow me to strengthen my existing skills to better serve and assist the patient populations. With the rise in co-morbid conditions, there is greater need for promoting health, preventing and managing diseases, as well as, differential diagnosis. The flexibility in this career enables me to provide care through evidence-based practice on various populations and ethnicity in a career that continues to grow with endless opportunities to practice.

In fact, I just thought you would like to know that I applied at Oakland campus for the two missing courses, including pharmacology and pathophysiology.

I spent my formative years growing up and surrounded by my family’s motel business. As a young girl, I observed deaths, strifes, happy occasions, and new life throughout the span of my childhood and adolescent years. My first hand exposures to daily struggles sparked my passion in aiding people in some form, hence pursuing
