Introduction

My name is Andres. I was born in raised in North Carolina. I took 2 years of college in computer information systems and computer science while in High School. However, my state never approved it as college credit; yet strangely, now they do. I am well versed in computers. Right now I am in my second year for an Associate's Degree in Applied Management. I have about five more classes to go to finish it. This class is of course recommended to finish my study. However, it is always good to understand business writing a little more because the army has it own type of professional writing in things such as memorandums. My goal is to have a better acknowledgement and understandment of writing in the business world.
I chose Applied Management as an associates instead of general studies, because I believe it helps more when you go to get your bachelor's degree. General Studies only shows you took enough courses of different things just to get to your bachelor's degree. However, I was hoping to complete a Bachelor's Degree in either Computer Science or Computer Information Systems. In today's world you are no longer focused on just computers. You also have to be well rounded about business and how to employ your projects in the best business sense available and economically too. I've always loved business, so my associates degree helps me get a step ahead of my competition in life.
There are many specific reasons and goals for future employment within my field, however, I am not taking these classes or degree's just because I want better employement later on in life. I am in the Army for another five years. Having a degree or two puts you that much more ahead of your appears in promotion and selections for certain openings in jobs in the military. Not only will I benefit in the future with the associate's and bachelor's degree, but I will also benefit in the present career that I am in right now.
