Biomedical Engineering Personal Statement

I can still vividly recall the eleven-year-old me fawning over the likes of Lawrence Krauss and Neil Degrasse Tyson. I was completely immersed in everything and anything pertaining to the vast universe beyond our seemingly insignificant world. I thought I had it all figured out. I would devote my life to being an astrophysicist and eventually earn my PhD. I would relish in the pink lettering on my wall that said “Dr. Mia”, but as I approach my late teens, my mind has been bombarded with what-ifs and buts. Irrespective of my change of heart, I still have an intense passion for math and science since it is how we explain the world around us, and that is why I have settled on biomedical engineering.

Imagining a career founded on helping people and bettering their lives puts a smile on my face. With so many diseases and events in the world, there is a need for constant innovation when it comes to medical devices and research. A solid foundation in mathematics is needed to venture into these parts of the woods, so that is why I have decided to take AP Calculus during my senior year. It is a challenge, but those limits sure do have a way of staying in your head! Mathematics is interesting because it stretches the boundaries of how hard
It is simply a compilation of journals of experiments done by an arrange of scientists. Whether it's investigating neuroinflammation in the spinal cord or making breakthroughs in bone and tissue engineering, this journal is a great way to familiarize myself with biomedical terminology and research. The entire process of delving into this field is beautiful. It is a refreshing mix of biology, chemistry, electrical engineering, and so many more branches of science. Some may shy away from bioengineering simply because of its broad nature, but that is one of the reasons why I am ever so drawn towards
