Reflection

A degree in interdisciplinary studies allows me to utilize the many experiences and skills I have obtained throughout my various courses and time tutoring in a way that is multidisciplinary and accepts multiple viewpoints in order to obtain the most helpful outcome. In my journey towards interdisciplinary studies, I have taken a diverse amount of classes; however, most of them are related to the health and science field. The first few semesters of college were focused on finishing my general requirements before I focused heavily on my science courses for my remaining time as an undergraduate. Some of the time frames regarding these courses were determined by the difficulty of the courses, the course load I attempted the particular semester, and the availability of the courses offered at the time. My courses were chosen in regard to my interest in the medical field and my goal of working within the health field in the near future. These health and science related courses are pre-requisites for many Masters of Health Administration programs which will ultimately lead me to a job as a health administrator at a hospital or health care facility, so having a large health and biomedical sciences background will allow me to have an advantage in that career.
