Undergraduate / My reasons of choosing master of health management. [6]

Hello everyone! I am Cho from Myanmar. This is my first time of applying australia award scholarship and first essay too. I really need of urgent help and comments. Thanks you all for your kindly attention.

How did you choose your proposed course and Institution?

Firstly, I have some sound reasons of choosing master of health management. I was graduated from the University of Community Health so it is compatible with my degree. I worked as a health assistant at Medecins du Monde (3MDGs MCH project). I provided supervision and support to volunteer health workers to ensure appropriate quality of health. After working a year as health assistant, I realized myself that I am really interested in public health management. I would like to participate at operating suitable health system to meet the need of community. I also worked at International rescue committee with the position of health officer. I facilitated health related technical support to fire-ceased ethnic health group in order to enhance maternal and child health service at their ethnic area. At this job, I learned appropriate approach have to use at different community background ( our union; Myanmar was organized with 135 ethnic group). There are a lot of questions in my mind and I would like to learn more public health management. I want to develop my professional skill more than now. Now our country; Myanmar is making energetic effort in development of health system strengthening. Myanmar new government is still marching forward a modern and democratic country hence there is a higher demand of skilled human resources .So it is also the accomplishment of my country.In addition, the health management program is promoting health leadership in areas of strategic planning, policy and decision-making. I have burning desire to have the ability to apply knowledge and skills in relation to public health principles and practice that reduce inequity in health care access and improve population health status.

Secondly, I chose the University of New South Wales as priority because it was ranked 49th at the world university ranking. Students can learn about the world renowned architecture and vibrant subculture. I chose the Flinders University as the second priority because the curriculum overview of health service management master attract me and provide what I want to learn.
