STATEMENT OF PURPOSE

“Exposure, Insight, and International experience from a reputed

Institution are the three top most reasons I’m intending to study Master’s in
International Business from Northampton University”

Global business is now a complex chain of human thoughts and

endless human endeavor. Goods and services integrate seamlessly to help
satisfy customers in every aspect. Management of these services is very
essential to prove a stand in this highly competitive world. To fit and contribute
to this business environment I need to add to my engineering skills, the various
techniques required to solve critical and day-to-day problems. In the new
dynamics of business, supply chain and logistics determine the flow of business
and its functions.

To achieve my goal I would need to enhance my knowledge on

solving immediate problems and learn strategic methods that are necessary for
the optimization and growth of the business. The theoretical knowledge would
help advantage my capabilities thus making me fit to take on day-to-day
evolving problems in business. I have had the opportunity to exercise my
problem solving capability and identify the leadership qualities in me through
the various symposiums and projects at the school and college level.

A master’s in International Business will help me better

understand how business and management operates and perform by
internationally. There are such reasons why I am saying this? An overseas
education will certainly provide a competitive edge in addition to knowledge
and training to understand and participate in International Business.

REASON FOR SELECTING NORTHAMPTON UNIVERSITY

I intend to study in your university because of your good

teaching, Learning and development at your university will help me improve
my knowledge in my field and help me style myself into a better
businessperson. I am very impressed with the standard facilities available at
your university and the Experience you provide to students as per this field.

I privileged to have had opportunities to study at M.S.P. School

at Dindigul, widely regarded as among the states best schools. I am a graduate
of Bsc.Visual Communication from Loyola College, Chennai, which ranks
among top five colleges in India. In fact, this is also another reason I intended
to study abroad, because of the academic standard and Educational Intuitional
has given me the urge and confidence to take up challenge of pursuing the
Master’s program from your university
Why I chose Master in Business Administration?

As soon as finished 12th standard I went into business, which

is packaging Industry. I was into the section of supervising the employees. To
be honest I was not having much experience in the beginning. However, I had
learnt quickly by the guidance of the Production Manager. During that one
year, l faced so many troubles. Nevertheless, I solved it easily. My
responsibilities are to control the over all production by the command of the
Production Manager. I‘ll give the job cards to the employees for the daily
activities and planning the output result. I had been always co-ordinate with
employees to achieve the production goal. Then I have to maintain the
machineries regularly.

After one year, I thought of doing my UG in Visual

Communication. In visual communication, I had a chance to study about
different kinds of communications like visually and verbally. However, I
studied this course in different perspective. I had an elective subject of
marketing. I just taught myself how to do marketing through media. Because
media playing a vital role in this contemporary business world. I was focused
marketing management and that decided finally I do not want to be an
employee anymore, I wanted to be an Employer in future. I needed some
industrial experience to learn about the production and management sector. For
that, I joined again in a packaging industry and I posted as a Production
Manager that was really a challenging part in my life.

I posted as a Production Manager in a packaging industry,

I have gone a very meticulously planned way, well-structured practice during
production experience. We are manufacturing corrugated box (Carton box).
After my appearance to this production hall, I made the production to 40,000
boxes per day. Previously per day our productions were 20000 boxes. In my
two years of production experience, this is my great achievement that I am
keeping constant production of same quantity. We are giving best quality at
reasonable price and using best quality of raw materials for the Production. We
are keeping a good reputation in the market so far. I had a chance to learn about
management in a concern. Even though I am working in a small scale Industry,
I have full freedom to interact with all the employees working there. There are
about 100 employees are working under down to me. This posting has really
helped me in developing my leadership qualities.

My responsibilities are planning, scheduling, calibrating,

stock maintenance and reporting to my superior. So far, I have learnt to a
certain extent as to how the organization is running their administration. This
skill is enough for my current industry. Nevertheless, for my upcoming
business, which is a ‘Paper Mill’ I need to improve my production skills as well
as my Management skills to the International level.
 I am going to start a ‘Paper Mill’ in another two years that is
relevant to my current industry. This is a very big industry and it is my dream
project too. For my part, I need to learn about International marketing and
business operations. We have chosen this project because of usage of paper will
be in high demand in the world, especially in India. Paper product is using in
high number nowadays. To manufacture a paper we have to buy raw materials
like OCC waste, Machineries, chemicals etc., from abroad. In future I must
know International business, marketing, Finance, banking, management,
Strategy planning etc., if I study this course, would give me International
exposures and I can market my product in India as well as in my neighborhood
countries.

I understand that I have three years of experience, but as an

overseas student from India, I can yet contribute to the MBA program in your
University. Rules and principles of business in the world, most need to become
a good businessperson. Moreover, the university will give me an opportunity to
develop my Multi Cultural Business and management skills.

REASON FOR STUDY IN UK

UK is one of the Vibrant Country that technically and
academically advanced. Moreover 150-country student are studying in
and around UK. So I may have chance to meet and learn world culture
at one place that is UK. This is one of the main reasons why I opted to
study in UK. More than I am highly impressed with the curriculum and the
study modules offered by your u niversity, which in turn will help me
acquire the skills needed to face a competitive market.

CONCLUSION
I assure you that I will make the most of myself, and will be
unsparing in my efforts to scale great academic heights bringing laurels to your

believe that this program at your university will help me to achieve my goals,
