Recommended: Thesis on environmental human health

I believe that people from every socioeconomic background in every part of the world deserves access to clean water in order to live a healthy and happy lifestyle. This belief fuels my passion for learning about the environment and human health. Thus, I plan to attain my bachelors degree in Environmental Health Science from the University of Georgia and then to pursue a dual M.D./Ph.D. degree in order to conduct scientific research on how human health is impacted by the environment. My goal is to become Nyree Riley, M.D., Ph.D. and improve the health of the population by making clean water accessible and affordable to people across the globe.

My time in the classes as well as assisting in any way possible in the Shock Trauma Unit opened my eyes to a side of medicine that I had never been exposed to before. A hunger and desire to not only learn more about medicine, but to also be able to create a lasting impact and a difference in the lives of people began to burn inside of me. Since then, I have taken classes related to environmental health and human health while pursuing my bachelors degree at the University of Georgia and have been conducting research in Wetland Ecology under the supervision of Dr. Darold P. Batzer. In doing so, I have expanded my breadth of knowledge about the environment and human health and I have gained valuable lab and research experience.

    I aspire to exceed expectations in this field and work with doctors to access possible conditions. As a student who has always been passionate about science and excelled in these areas, I have had the opportunity to share my knowledge while assisting a physics instructor in the laboratory with experiments he plans to introduce in future classes and while tutoring struggling students in Chemistry, A&P, and Statistics. This has been a rewarding experience for me as I desire to see others succeed. This has also allowed me to stay sharp in these areas and has helped me learn to communicate more effectively; both of which will be beneficial to my program. This year, I’ve had the honor of instructing a science club at a private school where I led a group of students through hands-on learning projects and experimentations. Although I demonstrate a strong background in Science, I knew it would be important to gain some medical experience. I was fortunate to be able to volunteer at a local women’s health clinic with the head sonographer beginning August 2017 and continuing for 1 year until classes begin in the

Whether it’s myself, my parents, my doctor, or others that bring it up, I’m reminded that I need to eat healthier or exercise more, etc. I know that I need to get better about what I eat and try to work more exercise into my daily routine, I just find it hard to find the motivation to go and actually accomplish what I know that I need to do. Especially in today’s society where we’re surrounded by a lot of non-healthy food, and getting access to healthy food is more expensive than the latter, it’s hard to make the better choice and choose the healthy option. I’m hoping now that I’m in college that I’m able to get better at taking care of myself than I have in the past.
