My Academic Goals and Career Plans Selecting an occupation for the future is considered one of the hardest things that students may face, especially for students who finish high schools. Students don't know what they want or where to begin. Some students reflect which occupation would it fit and that take them a long time which a good thing. They start making lists and collecting some information about what they will do after. However, some other students who don't care either they find it is an easy thing, nor they already know what career they want to peruse. For me, I belong in the first group, what I did was I’d made a list of three career that I was wondering about and collect some information. I found that becoming an airplane pilot …show more content…
Each one of these branches has its own program. However, In order to fly an airplane and carry passengers, students need to major in Aeronautical Science. Aeronautical Science covers the practical theory of aeronautics and aviation, including operations, navigation, air safety and human factors, and it provides three degree levels Bachelor’s, Master’s, and PH.D. Graduation with Bachelor’s degree from Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University will achieve my dream. I’ve chosen to major in Aeronautical Science and earned the Bachelor’s degree. This major requires me to complete 121 credit hours, which divided on the course of General Education course, Aeronautical Science core course, Flight core course, and some other courses to complete one specialization. Embry-Riddle offers a program called Blue-Gold that helps students to save some money and time. This Blue-Gold program applies only to courses taken at Daytona State College; in other words, it allows students to take some classes at Daytona State college and must complete at least 30 credit hours in order to matriculate into Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University. In addition to that, students must have a cumulative grade point average of 2.0 “GPA” and minimum grade of “C” for each course to be accepted at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University. Moreover, the good thing about this program is that it gives the student the …show more content…
The program has a guide list. It lists the course equivalencies for DSC, As a result, I don't have to worry about what classes I should select for next semester. I am taking some general classes from that guide list. It will probably take me about three to four semesters at Daytona State College. That means by the end of the summer or fall, I’ll transfer to Embry-Riddle to complete my Bachelor’s degree in Aeronautical Science. If I complete this program successfully, I will have to more years to receive my Bachelor’s degree certification. At Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, I will be consisting in the Aeronautical Science core course and the Flight core course. In the Aeronautical Science course, I will be taking general subject, such as aerodynamics, aviation weather, and flight psychology. However, in the Flight core course, my dream will be true. It just will be flights. I will be flying all the time. I will do my best to earn my PLL, IPL, and CPL. I think that when I become a commercial pilot, I will have gained about 300 total hours. I will not stop there, I will try to work as an instructor. Why I will work as an instructor is because, I want to build up my flight hours to 500 or more. By getting that amount of hours, I may have the chance of being a first officer in any Qatar Airlines. In fact, The pilot has to have some skills, abilities, and knowledge that he/she
