PHD Information Technology Personal Purpose Statement Edit

Your part-time Ph.D. A program for working professionals is the best available option that I have found in terms of accommodating my working status along with attending one of the best programs in Florida.

I am a professional in the field of Information Technology. My love for this profession began over ten years ago when I took my first undergraduate MIS classes in systems development and programming at the University of XXXX. As my studies progressed, I rapidly became increasingly aware that I had found my calling in life. I enjoyed and excelled in my classes, and now, I hope to continue with my passion by studying in your Masters's MIS program.

The opportunity to study again presented itself in 2000 when the company I was working for as an IT consultant was forced to make staff cutbacks. The company offered to keep me on, but I opted out to continue with my studies. I completed the MS/MIS and MBA programs at the Business College of the University of XXXX. By gaining my MS/MIS and MBA in my chosen field, I created more opportunities for myself and my career development. I feel strongly that the knowledge and credentials that I have gained make me a strong candidate for your program. As a Vietnamese woman, I also look forward to contributing to the diversity of your program.

I want very much to attain a Ph.D. Degree in my area so that I will have a that competitive edge in the IT service market. As you well know, academic degrees provide professionals with a significant advantage over their competitors and I seek to be competitive. I struggle every day to stay abreast of the latest, up-to-date technical skills through everyday work and by keeping myself informed of new developments in my field. The Ph.D.will provid me with an even greater competitive edge, especially when dealing with the government sector.
