Herbert Mugumya - Professional Goal Statement
Walden University
Ph.D. in Human Services, specialization; Human Services Administration

My primary goal in applying to Walden University for Ph.D. program is to prepare myself for a future career in forensic human services administration. Interested in furthering the current body of research and in improving techniques used on the study of the theoretical foundations of organizational behavior and the practice of management and planning. I am very committed to pursuing human services administration and I believe Walden University Ph.D. program will provide me with an excellent foundation in the area of organizational management and planning. With a Ph.D., I will be well prepared to lead a very promising career. While I have no doubt that the program will push me to my limits, I am confident that I can face the rigorous challenges posed by graduate study and thrive under the demanding environment that advanced studies entail.

Curretly working as a Project Director in Africare, previously working as a Senior Technical Advisor and Program Management Specialist with USAID, and, Program Manager and Project Coordinator in Save the Children and CARE International respectively, I believe I have gained a strong background experience in the specialized course of graduate study that will motivate me accomplish advanced research in human services administration. My professional and work background over the last 18 years is especially strong in organizational behavior, project planning and management, my primary field of interest. Project planning and management consumes my professional work life; I do not intend to study it because I find it somewhat interesting but because I am devoted to it; I want to make it my professional career. Participating in this program not only will it demonstrate my determination to gaining a high quality education and the seriousness with which I treat academics, but also will attests to my

    The project I chose to do was two different collages with different meanings and images that represent what my goal was. To start the overall goal of the project was to effectively communicate that the United States needs to change the focus of our education system. The way the education system is heading is a place that puts more emphasis on learning Math and Science than English. This project clearly shows images that have a positive view on math and science but a negative view of English. The reason being is because I wanted to show what most people in the United States think about English. The use of black and white pictures was to show that the matter at hand is serious and that it is black and white, meaning that there is two sides you can choose. This effectively forces the audience to automatically start thinking about which side they will choose. Making this exactly what I wanted to achieve, to make people think deeply about education. Pictures having people who hate reading represent the stress that comes along with the subject of English. Other pictures give a real feel to the audience because the pictures show actual facts, people, or things that represent emotions and connotations in the realm of education. No matter how far fetched the pictures were I was able to connect them to the goal of getting English to be a more sought after subject.…

    My initial reaction to the Human Services program philosophy as it reflects the university’s mission statement is that Athabasca University has it as a mission to make university education attainable to all irrespective of their culture, age and academic background. I continue to understand, from the program philosophy, that the university has taken it as a point of duty to avail working professionals in Human Services field the opportunity to complete a degree program in the comfort of their homes while still working actively. In a not shell, The Human Services program philosophy and mission statement both support students’ academic success by creating a supportive learning environment for students to easily get access or to connect with…

    My purpose in life is to serve God with honor, humility, and obedience. “ But as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.” (JOSHUA 24:15) I will honor God by helping other in my field of Psychology with hard work and dedication to all my patients. I will serve God by making sure I put other people’s needs before mine and making sure to remain humble, as He has taught us. Serving God will be the ultimate highlight of my life. No duty of serving God is too small, as long as your serving God. I will share the gospel of Jesus with whom I come across with because the gospel is the power of God. (ROMANS 1:16) I will be ready to pick up my bags and go wherever God tells me because to serve God is what I want to do. I will serve Him on the way to work and after work. I will serve Him as I teach my children about the Almighty. “You shall teach them diligently to your children and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, when you walk by the way, when you lie down, and when you rise up.” (DEUTERONOMY 6:7) I will serve God making sure my will is not my own but His as Jesus also did. “Most assuredly, I say to you, the Son can do nothing of Himself, but what He sees the Father do; for whatever He does, the Son also does in like manner.” (JOHN 5:19) I will serve by comforting the poor in spirit, hungry, weeping, and the widows. “If there is among you a poor man of your brethren, within any of the gates in your land which the LORD your God is giving you, you shall not harden your heart nor shut your hand from your brother, but you shall open your hand wide to him and willingly lend him…
