“I intend to use my education to seek a position of greater responsibility and eventually a promotion in my present organization; or with one of many organizations in the Washington metropolitan area. My new degree has given me a more in depth view of the acquisition and contracting processes and has given me the tools I need to research various problems that arise in those areas of practice as well.” —
