Instructions: Graduate programs are organized to help provide the student with a well-rounded, balanced curriculum of interrelated courses. These courses are to help stimulate and facilitate learning on a higher-level for graduate students, but sometimes the higher-level or order of thinking is not fully utilized to its fullest extent. In many instances, students are asked to recall, comprehend, and apply given concepts, issues, and theories – instead of analyzing, synthesizing, and evaluating their importance or relevance to one’s future career aspirations. Thus, one’s countless hours of studies to obtain a graduate degree may mean just that – a graduate degree in a physical sense, not a practice one. — How can you use your coursework in your current and future career plans?
— Have you been able to incorporate and utilize the various elements of learning (concepts, theories, issues, discussions) into your current work situation?
— Please provide a detailed discussion of this potential application process of your graduate coursework.
— Specifically, do you think that you will be able to carry over the knowledge gained in your graduate coursework into your future career plans?
— Were there specific courses that you considered more important than others in terms of your personal and professional development?
— Were there courses that you helped you to achieve more personal and professional enrichment?
