After graduation, the foremost goal is to prepare for the certification exam that will enable me to practice as a nurse anesthetist for which I will be working so hard for two years before graduating from Clarkson College. Upon obtaining a license, my professional goal is to work for a healthcare company or an association that will enable me to use the skills I learned throughout my graduate school at the same time gives me an opportunity to learn leadership skills and gives necessary experience. After few years of experience as a CRNA, I would like to obtain doctoral degree in nurse anesthesia so I could teach the skills I learned to new nurse anesthetists to be. Above mentioned goals can only be achieved with a graduate education on the field of nurse anesthesia at Clarkson College. I am applying with a great hope of getting accepted at Clarkson college’s nurse anesthesia program. I believe that Clarkson college has the necessary training, supportive faculty members and mentors, academic curriculum, and abundant clinical experiences in different care …show more content…
As the first person to have college degree, I have a great value for college education. I want to continue this educational endeavor to a graduate level and make my family proud. My graduate education means a lot to my parents, since they never had an opportunity to get formal education. Living in a refugee camp for almost two decades, I could only dream of graduate education. Now I am in the United States where I want to make my dream a reality. Graduate education can be challenging, but I believe my hard work, work experience, interest and dedication toward the anesthesia program, and support from my encouraging and understanding wife, mentors and faculty members will lead me to successfully complete nurse anesthesia program at Clarkson

    Being in the medical field for the past ten years, I have seen the growth and changes in the medical field. When I began my nursing career as a medical assistant, I noticed many other nurses continuing their education to be able to have greater hands on approach in nursing. This opened my eyes to the endless possibilities that a nurse can do, whether it’s with direct patient care or being a resource to patients and other nurses around.

    After Graduate School, I hope to have my PhD in psychology or my doctorate in psychiatry. I would like to start out working in jails, talking to criminals and analyzing their brains versus the brain of an average adult to study how the brain reacts with criminal activity and why they do and feel what they do. I have heard that a person can not do that type of work for very long because it is emotionally tasking so after that, I would like to open my own counseling practice up. I would do either marriage and family therapy or focus on teenage depression. Eventually, I would like to retire into school psychology or become a psychology teacher. Also, if I ever have enough money, I will buy a house devoted to taking in stray animals…

    Being an Emergency Room nurse for 7 years and working as a traveling nurse in many different parts of the country has impacted my future and decision of going back to school. My personal career goal is to become a Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP) with specialization in pediatric critical care area, mainly pediatric emergency medicine. I have known since a very young age that I had a gift for working with children. My colleagues always call me the “pediatric nurse”.

I chose to become a FNP to broaden my area of expertise and to leave multiple doors open to work in different areas. I have looked into numerous FNP programs across the country, but I was particularly looking for a program that would allow me the flexibility with my changing work schedule and lifestyle. A few co-workers of mine are currently going to Walden and informed me about the school and program.…

    When it comes to my education my short-term goal is to finish out this school year and maintain my current GPA. I find it easier to motivate myself each day if I have set in stone grade goals in mind. My long-term education goal is to finish my Associate of Applied Business degree in spring 2017 and my Associate of Arts degree in spring of 2018. I have enough classes and credit hours to finish a second associate degree in two part-time semesters. My short term career goal is to continue where I am until I graduate and learn as much as I can from those around me. I find that the people around me at my current jobs are very intelligent and it would be wasteful of me to not learn what I can from them before I move on. My long-term career goal…

    My desire to pursue a career in health care is greatly influenced by its unlimited opportunities for career development and the desire to impact another person’s life positively. As a kid, I always had a burning desire to become a nurse or a medical doctor but my parents’ influence and their perception of the engineering profession while in Nigeria lured me away. I trained and practiced as a Materials Engineer back in Nigeria, where I worked as a research and development officer for five years. However, coming to the United States created the turning point in my life. I searched for engineering jobs unsuccessfully for many months, and none was forthcoming despite availability of many job openings in nursing and healthcare related fields. In order to confirm my readiness to pursue nursing as a career, I entered a Practical Nursing program at the Wilbur Wright College in Chicago. At this time, I was still driving cab to support myself, while I dropped it completely upon graduation and passing LPN board examination.…
