Scholarship / Motivation Statement for AAS - applying for a master degree in Public Health [8]
Dear All, I am preparing my motivation statement for Australia Award Scholarship. Kindly need your help to give me some insights and thank you.
Why did you choose your proposed course and institution? *max 2000 chars
I am applying for a master degree in Public Health which the study can excel my abilities in the area of adolescent engagement and nutrition intervention strategy. It has prepared me with robust knowledge and practical skills to develop strategic approach and creative intervention design. With those rationales, I strongly believe that the course will help me to enlarge my career opportunities.
My current work is conducting adolescent nutrition program in schools. As consultant, I am responsible to support district government with technical assistance and to scale up program in the larger number of schools. Along the way, the arisen issue is related to the lack sense of ownership to continue program with minimum stakeholder participation and limited resources. The gap is hoped to be addressed with the study I will pursue, specifically about health social and advocacy strategy.
In so doing, I choose Master of Public Health at The University of Sydney because the course offers specialisation on health promotion and advocacy. Their lecturers come from expertise background in nutrition and health policy in Asia-Pacific and this is similar situation happened in Indonesia. It gives me chance to learn directly about advocacy strategy from academic experts which the course presents the core of how framing health issues and political lobbying. As a result, it will be applied to adolescent nutrition development in UNICEF and district government at large scale.
On second thought, The University of Melbourne has Master of Public Health with concentration on health social sciences. The course offers community-based participatory research (CBPR) competency as basic modality to create health promotion strategy. UNICEF and district government are looking towards participatory approach to enhance knowledge, attitude and practice of adolescents. The strategy will allow me to capture promising practices and lessons-learned for district authorities to develop program.
