Statement of Purpose

Being surrounded by business-minded people from an early age, I always had the knack to know more about businesses and how they function in different parts of the world. I was eager to learn about economic development, its impacts, and how globalization has changed the course of businesses globally. Since I was in primary school, I have read business magazines and news articles featuring the top entrepreneurs in different countries. I remember spending hours in the library exploring various biographies and books written by famous businessmen. The idea of running a business and taking it to a global stage always fascinated me. That is one of the primary reasons I want to pursue the Master of Science in Business with Business Analytics degree at [UNIVERSITY_NAME], U.K.

I have always been very fond of academics, and throughout my school years, I have maintained good academic performance. I have tried my best to gain as much knowledge as possible by reading books, taking guidance from teachers, and actively participating in internships. I have decent marks in my high school and primary school board examinations, allowing me to take up B.Sc in Physics for my undergraduate program. Even though I opted for science for graduation, my passion for business and management studies never died. I believe every bit of education that we receive will be of some use at some point in time. The same goes for me. Studying science allowed me to understand many technical aspects that can be closely associated with different businesses. I developed the skills necessary to identify the techniques that work in the real world, focus on areas of weakness, and realize an organization's future potential and needs. This approach allows me to use the available resources to the fullest and generate the best R.O.I. within a certain framework. I developed a smart, technical, and out-of-the-box mentality by studying science during my undergraduate course.

After my Bachelor's degree, I am currently pursuing M.B.A. in Operations from [UNIVERSITY_NAME], [CITY]. To date, I have maintained a CGPA of 7.4/10.0 and continue to work hard to make sure that I complete my degree with full honors. I scored 41/50 in Cambridge English Placement Test and secured 58th position in the Test of English language. I decided to pursue an M.B.A. in Operations because it will give me a lot of flexibility to transition between many job roles and that too in different sectors. Competition in the business world is rising every day. That is why companies are looking for individuals who can provide the company with value and the essential edge to stay ahead of the crowd. I have learned a lot about using business analytical tools, got an in-depth understanding of operations management, and found techniques to cater to global business networks and their problems.

I have had the opportunity to intern at [COMPANY_NAME], New York as a Market Research Analyst from June 2021 to July 2021. I had to carry out extensive research on government agencies in different states like New York, Alaska, and Ohio. I captured potential opportunities and documented every stage of the research work. I was also responsible for supporting and setting up a fully functional CRM system and capturing the complex campaign statistics. I interned at [COMPANY_NAME], [CITY], as a Management Trainee with the role of researching and developing Standard Operating Procedures. During this time, I had the chance to learn a lot from top professionals and experts who helped me to develop problem-solving abilities, winning mentality, good communication, and adaptability skills.

I have decided to pursue a Master of Science in Business with Business Analytics in the United Kingdom. From world-renowned universities to innovative approaches to different streams of education and the cutting-edge spirit it offers, the U.K. has what I need to reach my highest potential. Britain was the preferred choice for some of the greatest icons in this industry. One in four world leaders has studied in the U.K., making it a lucrative destination for international students like me who are very ambitious in their respective careers. [UNIVERSITY_NAME] has a very proud history of producing the best brains in business and management studies over the years. Their high-quality teaching, top-notch research work, and a committed and enthusiastic academic staff will help me learn and absorb the best knowledge in Business Analytics. I have always wanted to study under the best teachers and experience vibrant and cosmopolitan campus life. [UNIVERSITY_NAME] offers all of that to their students.

My immediate objective is to complete my Master in Science in Business with Business Analytics degree from [UNIVERSITY_NAME], London and get a well-paying job under one of the top companies like [COMPANY_NAME], [COMPANY_NAME], [COMPANY_NAME], and so on. In the longer run, I intend to return to my home country and help indigenous businesses achieve better results internationally. I would humbly request you to go through my application and pursue my dreams in the U.K.
