Sterling Scholar: Science
Chung-Jiah Justin Chen
Skyline High School
Parents: Ping-Lin and Wen-Rang Chen
To me, the sciences have been and always will be my deepest passion and I expect to apply the skills that I have learned to a profoundly altruistic profession, medicine. As I move past my high school years and begin to explore the specifics of that profession, I find that the sciences are ultimately inseparable from the human considerations of medicine. I plan to pursue a biomedical engineering major in my undergraduate studies. I feel compelled to apply the sciences in every way possible and engineering provides the perfect chance to do just that. I cannot imagine my life, past or future, without science. I realize that discovering its intricacies and applying its theories will be a tremendous challenge.
