Pursuing My Degree In Radiography

Biology has always intrigued me; that is why I took advanced biology courses every year during high school. I chose cardiology in particular for medical school because cardiac diseases run in both sides of my family. I have seen my grandmothers get pushed into the emergency rooms and I thought they were not going

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

My major is Biology Pre-Med. I chose this particular major because I eventually want to become a doctor. The thing I like about this field is I like helping people; I want to save as many lives as possible.

After alot of reserach, I diecided multispecailty sonography would be a good fit for me. People learn in all different ways and for me it is visualually. To be able to go in and picture problem areas and being to understand and see the problem was

medical field. Biology, my science of choice, always piqued my curiosity time after time. I was enamored with the

For my Health Science Exploration interview, I interviewed my mother, she is a Surgery Schedule. She went to Bryant and Stratton College for Applied Science in Medical Assisting. During this time she got her Associate's degree which took 2 years to complete with medical experience. Which means she worked in Doctors Offices, Patient First, and Hospitals to get her current job. Some of the classes she took were Medical Terminology, Anatomy and Physiology, and Medical Ethics. She told me that her favorite class was Anatomy and Physiology because she liked learning how the body works, why it works, and what each part of the body does.

The department that I am shadowing is the radiology, or imaging services, department where all x-rays, CT scans, MRI, and GI scans are taken and processed. There are many programs that one can take to become educated in this field, one of the bigger more heard of programs in Missouri is at St. Louis community college. This is a 73-75 credit hour program that takes three years to complete. The total cost for a Missouri resident is 7,616 dollars, about 101 dollars per credit hour, the cost goes up for students out of state and even higher for those out of country. The first two years are basic classes at the college while the third year is clinical practicing at a hospital to apply newly learns skill. For the admissions requirement: a student

I originally chose Health and Social Care as a GCSE because I felt like it could help me broaden my choices on a career. Now that I have been doing Health and Social Care for nearly 2 years, I can say that it has helped me discover the many career choices available I the Health and Social route. To me, doing Health and Social Care will really keep my options open, if there is any reason for me to change my career path. Because I am already familiar with Health and Social Care, I feel that it would aid me with the new knowledge I would learn in college.

After being taking anatomy during my junior year of high school, I realized that I enjoy learning about the human body. As time went on I started to realize that I enjoy helping people and taking care of people. Eventually, I realized that I really wanted to be a

To become a radiologist, there are certain job tasks, special skills, and talents, as well as a higher education that is needed. A radiologist depends upon many special skills and talents. Some of them compose of writing, active listening, critical thinking, reading comprehension, judgement and decision making, speaking, deductive reasoning, near vision, and many more skills in which I believe I have most of. Special skills are very necessary, although are some other components including education. Education is essential to becoming a radiologist. You need to advance in medicine and dentistry, to diagnose and treat injuries, biology, English, Physics, medicine, health, and many, many more. As important as your education

Keeping to a strict collegiate schedule of practices and nutrition I found an increased interest in these subjects furthering my interest in the major and minor. Furthermore, I have always been a compassionate person, with a goal to help people in any way. Add into this equation a love for science and learning about the human body, which leads to an almost perfect fit for the major I chose.

I chose Anatomic Pathology as my career to research because I have always had an avid interest in the medical career. at first I wanted to be a doctor but I was not sure if I would be good at it, But this way I will always be involved in the medical field and be involved in something that I have always wanted to do. There will always be a job for me because there is always research to be done about the human body.

My passion for this field, combined with my respect for the medical discipline, drive my enthusiasm to be considered for this position as Registered Technologist. I am very interested in this position at Allenmore Medical Center and believe that my education and employment background are unique, appropriate, and advantageous for the position.

My biggest inspiration in choosing my career path was getting a summer job. This past summer I had the opportunity of working in the radiology department at Opelousas General. I got the chance to experience what Radiologist, Rad techs, Nuclear Med Techs, MRI techs, CT techs and Ultrasound techs tasks are like on a daily basis. My job was to assist the transporters when getting patients in the hospital for either an x-ray, ultrasound, Nuclear Medicine test, CT or MRI. As a summer student at OGHS, I got to communicate with different techs about their experiences. Being a Radiology and Sonography major I asked lots of questions about their job and I learned lots of things I never knew about this field of medicine. Some things I have learned is

When I first thought of what I wanted to do with my life after college, the first thing I thought of was helping people. The next step in deciding what I wanted to do with my life was to exam how I could accomplish this goal. I started pondering and I was thinking about how much I love to take care of my body. Health care and personal hygiene has always been an important factorin my life. So I decided to major in Health Science. With this major, I will be able to further my education in ways to be healthy and possibly learn how to help others. I decided that being a health physician or nutritionist was something that I was really interested in. This is where communication studies came in. I figured that if I minor in communication studies, I could improve my oral and written communication to better help in my future of nutrition.
