My Profession and Future Career Plans in Master of Information

Master of Information (MI) is an interdisciplinary program that has units of studies in computer science, information management, information systems, ethics and project management. I am interested in this area of study as it greatly fulfills my career passion as information professional. The MI program is extensively wide as it gives comprehensive information of computer science, telecommunications, information technology and some combination of some (Rainer et al, 2013). I find this area interesting as I am always curious with my laptop as I try to develop various prototypes simple to those of established companies. It is an innovative program information as it is explored, by all means, depth, breadth, and richness. It is a valuable professional not only to me but also to other people as they have experienced the greatness that comes with the development of MI. The program has led to great information design, storage, organization, retrieval, right to use, protection, preservation, distribution policy and management (Rainer et al, 2013).

MI is fundamental important due to its numerous advantages. Mi enables information to penetrate all digital media in the digitally mediated society.  MI also enabled information professionals in understanding the technical, political and the epistemological effects of the information practices that are rapidly changing (Rainer et al, 2013). This career choice is very interesting as it helps in addressing the issue of critical thinking and leadership as its studies engage in significant concepts, practices, and theories. MI deals with the exploration of technology and information institutions resources that make me an essential professional (Rainer et al, 2013).

In order to become an expert in this, I have to train with a professional organization like Tencent or NetEase in China. These organizations will offer me with a great opportunity to sharpen my skill and practically exercise all the knowledge and information gained from the class. This will equip me to be a better professional in MI. I will also gain diverse experience as I will be dealing with real life situations rather than the theoretical information in class. This will be of great help as I will be able to solve problems promptly in any given situation as the organization are diverse and perform large scale operations (Rainer et al, 2013). With all the knowledge gained I will be more accredited information personnel who can use the experiences gathered to give me a competitive advantage over others.

I will use the experiences from the organization to start up my own small company that deals with data analysis. Data analysis is the process of examining, cleaning, changing and modeling data with a purpose of determining the useful information, giving out great suggestions and hold up decision making (Nelson, 2005). This is because it is one of my career desires to own my own company as it will help further grow my career and that of other people who are in the field of MI. My own data analysis company will positively transform lives through decision making to the people so that I may have a reputable name and create a strong brand for my company (Nelson, 2005). I will set up the company in China where I gained my experience as I understand the process better due to the fact that the policies are the same to those of the organization I gained my experience in. My vision is to see my company grow to that level of Tencent and beyond.
