What are ways to narrow down my career interest in Criminal Justice?
I'm a first generation college student and I am currently on my 3rd/last year at a community college. I am trying to create a plan to transfer to a university but I am not only having trouble choosing a specific major but my overall path. I have always had an interest in Criminal Justice but, frankly, I am just not exposed enough to the field. I wish to obtain a Masters education at the very least but I am researching endlessly with little results. If you are possibly able to discuss about other questions please search me on my LinkedIn account. Any guidance is appreciated, thank you. #criminology #criminaljustice #firstgenerationcollegestudent #seekingmentorship #careerinterest #highereducation
How to Structure and Write a great Statement of Purpose for Graduate School?
Hi, I am a mechanical engineering senior interested in applying for grad school for next fall. I understand that schools want a statement of purpose/essay detailing why I want to apply for the program, my interests, my experience, etc. I'm interested in design and manufacturing engineering and I have research experience from my current school, but I'm just not sure how to put it all together. #graduate-school #engineering #college #mechanicalengineering #manufacturingengineering #additivemanufacturing #design #designengineering #programming #engineer #graduatelevel #highereducation #electricalengineering #computerengineering #civil-engineering
