According to Schunk & Zimmerman (2012), interest in anything develops because of what a person perceives, feels, cognitively represent, and considers for further engagement. My interest in graduate study to become a postgraduate nurse has been developing since I was a child. I am from a place that has been greatly affected by civil war. As a result, there was always a great need for health services in my community. This made me have a vision of becoming an individual who would be helpful and supportive to the community.
Undertaking graduate studies in nursing would increase my helpfulness and supportiveness to society. This is actually one reason that motivated me to choose this course for my further studies. Another motivation was my elder brother. He has worked hard to fulfil his childhood dream of becoming a doctor. His achievement made me feel that I really need to work hard to achieve my dreams thus motivating me to choose this course for my graduate study. As an individual, I have acquired significant academic qualifications.
I currently hold a bachelor’s degree in health care administration. This makes the minimum requirements for the Master of Science in nursing at Western University. In addition, I have an associate degree in Medical assistant. Therefore, I have acquired the knowledge essential for further education in the health care profession. However, I feel the knowledge I have concerning the provision of health care is not sufficient for effective health care practice. This is the reason why I have decided to go for a master of nursing degree to complement my educational background as a medical assistant.
