For as long as I can remember I have known what I wanted to do with my life and that is Science, this has always been a passion of mine but with a particular fascination for medicine. I have relished the vision of being an elite doctor and physician, making ground breaking contribution to the development of mankind and my country therefore my academic and professional goals are one as I apply for a scholarship to facilitate my masters program in Integrated Medicine at the …. University.
The …. University, where am currently pursuing my undergraduate degree in Chinese medicine on full scholarship, to be completed in June has facilitated my education into the field of Chinese medicine through lessons that cover a broad of range of topics including herbology, acupuncture and Moxibustion. It is this education that has shaped my understanding of complementary alternative medicine in integration with the conventional treatment and influenced my decision to pursue medicine further, specifically Integrated Medicine with a focus in Clinical experience, Infectious disease and Emergency Medicine. I value the practical skill development and research oriented techniques that are encouraged in the Chinese education curriculums so having had 5 years of diligent study, intensive supervised research experience with mentors and internship at the … Hospital under Dr.XXX, I have acquired an in depth knowledge of medical treatments appropriate for different cases, an ability to critically appraise medical literature both in Chinese and English, gained familiarity with the principles of diagnostics, medical prescriptions and an ability to apply these techniques to issues of various medical specialties.
The loss of my favourite uncle to Tuberculosis when I was 14 years of age was not only heartbreaking but also my life’s biggest disappointment because there was nothing I could do to help save him from dying. It is this pivotal experience
