I chose to major in biology because I want to work towards having a career in the medical field! Right now, my dream is to become a dermatologist, but that can also change in the future. I’m excited for this fall quarter because I’m moving from Hawai’i to California and I’m excited to make new friends. I hope to learn how to become more independent and I know I’ll love it in Irvine!
I chose to major in biology to help me reach my goal of becoming a PA, and because I enjoy learning about biological concepts that occur in everyday life. I’m super excited for this fall quarter and my future at UCI. During my time at UCI, I hope to get an internship that will help me get further insight on my major and future career.
I am aspiring to become an optometrist in the future and figured biology would be the best major to take in college in order to pursue that path. This fall quarter, I am extremely excited to meet new people and get to know the school better. It is a completely new environment, so I want to make the most of my experience and live life to the fullest the best that I can.
I decided on becoming a biology major, in order to further my career, either as a physician or some other doctor. I’m excited to meet new people and make connections with others, especially after COVID-19 limited the world’s ability to socialize. Before I graduate, I want to ensure that I study abroad in Korea.
Hello everyone. My name is Monjima Ghosh and I am currently an incoming Freshman at UC Irvine. It has been quite a challenging year. However, we all have gone through it with determination, positivity, and support from our loved ones and faculty, staff, teachers, friends, etc. I will be majoring in Biological Sciences.
The reason why I chose Dunlop School is because from childhood I have been noticing many people dying either of cancer, Alzheimer’s disease, etc. or are continually suffering due to other diseases. As a child I used to think why can’t doctors treat these diseases when they can treat others? As I grew up, I realized that it takes years of research and hard work to come up with a solution to these problems. And before I immigrated to the USA my grandmother died of cancer. She also suffered from Alzheimer’s disease. It was a sad moment for me but also, I started to think that there are many people in the world like my grandma who are having the same fate. That made me more interested in why some cells work in such a way that a person has to suffer because of it. As I was thinking about how I could contribute to finding a cure for untreatable diseases, I came to the idea of becoming a biotechnologist. Just as I like to make things out of clay, my favorite hobby ceramics, I want to be a biotechnologist and make things out of biological components and make our body a better living mechanism. So that is why I want to know biology as much as possible so I can piece together the puzzle and find a cure. I am very excited to begin my journey of healing by starting my fall quarter this September. I want to accomplish my task of getting involved in the campus as much as possible so I can get into a good graduate school and enhance my skills on biological ways of making cures. I also believe that each and every one of you who are majoring in any area of Dunlop School or any other field will contribute great things to the world and I look forward to seeing it. Thank you so much and I can’t wait to start my fall quarter.
I choose UC Irvine Dunlop School because it can lead me to many paths in biology. I am mostly looking forward to learn about neuroscience. I love to see the world and myself through the lens of biology. I’m very excited to meet the community on campus. I know I will grow so much from the environment. Before graduate, I hope I will be a part of research in the area of neuroscience.
