Hi Essay Forum Community! I hope you can help me review my Career Plan Essay. I truly appreciate all the feedback I have read! MCTP
Chevening is looking for individuals who have a clear post-study career plan. Please outline your immediate plans upon returning home and your longer-term career goals. You may wish to consider how these relate to what the UK government is doing in your country
Rapidly urbanization and motorization, low access to public transportation and displacement to country's the main urban areas, have pushed local government administrations to discuss their planning tools and propose projects that address such issues. Principal cities like A, B, and C have had the advantage of larger budgets and a concentration of skilled professionals. This, however, has not been the case for intermediate cities and towns, whose main priority has been to overcome pressing problems related to our internal 50-year conflict. Should I elaborate in the current climate, and post-conflict opportunities?
Upon my immediate return, I will set into practice my acquired knowledge and previous professional experience and assume an active role in Regional Planning Departments. The majority of these small municipalities must update, in the incoming years, the long-term vision of their Territorial Management Plans. This crucial opportunity presents itself every 12 years and is of immense importance due to the enormous urban pressure these territories are facing. I plan on joining forces with regional governments to ensure the inclusion of innovative and sustainable mobility scenarios and policies, which prioritize pedestrians and cyclists in their vision.
I am confident the experience of working for local and regional planning departments and the rigorous education from a UK leading master program, will provide me a broader understanding of Country's diverse realities and support my transition into more prominent roles at the national level.
My long-term goal is to work at the Ministry of Housing, Cities, and Territory, where the government will be creating a dedicated Vice-ministry of Cities. I believe it is crucial to the planning and development of the country, to an of and that is human-centered and pedestrian-scaled. As part of this division, I wish to shape and direct nationwide mobility initiatives and campaign for bike-pedestrian safety. Helping conceive planning policies that carefully consider all transportation modes will provide the necessary tools for local administrations to advance transit-oriented projects.
The Ministries of Housing and Transportation have frequently lacked synergy, yet better interactions could provide a broader impact on the national level. With my acquired knowledge in both Urban and Transport Planning, I hope to act as a liaison facilitating coordination across institutions and establishing more cohesive, inclusive and sustainable approaches to development.
My future professional motivations significantly coincide with the objectives of the UK Prosperity Fund for Country, which aims to support economic growth in post-conflict affected areas of the country. To achieve this goal, the fund promotes multi-modal transport planning, sustainable urban development, and human capital improvement for better governability, both on the national and regional scale. As the UK is the third largest investor in the country, it is of great interest to Country, that the financing and technical assistance substantially impact our communities. I hope the exposure to the Chevening community and British's planning approaches, will allow me to effectively support UK's efforts towards livable and equitable territories in Country. (474 words)
