from University of Northampton

Tom John James Bcom Finance & Accounting

Logistics & Supply chain management is the soul of any industry in the globalized world. Today, the
boundaries between countries are rapidly blurring, so understanding the supply chain management
requires a more holistic and international view of the industry. I can't wait to get a MSc degree in
Logistics & Supply Chain Management from University of Northampton – UK as the international
marketing industry exposure is very essential for growth in this world of highly competitive and
progressive. And through this, I want to understand the nuances of analyzing and strategizing for a long
term and sustainable growth in global businesses.

For my MSc in Logistics & Supply chain management, UK is the most suitable place. As one of the most
progressive nation in the world, it’s full of best opportunities and best companies. Since then, University
of Northampton has had an excellent faculty, a flexible course structure, world-class facilities and most
importantly a friendly environment for international students; it is therefore the ideal destination for
pursuing higher education. The degree obtained at University of Northampton – UK is recognized around
the world. In addition, it will allow me to understand diversity in terms of languages, culture, perspectives
and experiences, which will go a long way in shaping my personality and allow me to understand
different patterns of behaviors of people.

I look forward to acquire knowledge in logistics & supply chain management and learning from
renowned professors with excellent research facilities. In such an environment I will be constantly
exposed to skills and ideas that will equip me to become a management professional with unlimited
potential.

Successful school life ended with 9.4 CGPA result in CBSE curriculum and at that time I managed to
secure a first stage qualification in French Olympiad conducted by Alliance Françoise in India and
Embassy of France in India in collaboration with Langers. In higher education course I had 73.2% from
Placid Vidya Vihar School (CBSE). The Bcom degree life at Christ (Deemed to be University) Central
Campus Bangalore sharpened my vision about the area to focus in future study and also my college life
was enriched by excellence in Dance extravaganza (Day2) 2019 first prize. The introduction to roles in
crisis management group in Future MUN organized by Department of Professional Studies Christ
University as operation executive helped me to sharpen my interactive skills.

During my university tenure, I had a positive attitude and developed good relationships with my peers and
teachers. Perhaps most importantly during my time in college I nurtured different skills such as
leadership, positive attitude, time management, problem-solving and patience to deal with people in need.

I had completed the Forensic Accounting and Fraud Examination Certification course from Coursera and
gained knowledge in investigating allegations of fraud or other similar matter; I have been involved in
many cases that required considerable conversational and communication skills. Because of this, I have
become patient and tolerant in demanding and frustrating situations. In addition to working to help in
needs, I also had opportunities for self-reflection and growth, such as when we had disagreements with
those we lived with. To arbitrate and resolve conflicts it was important for me to be patient and
communicate clearly.

Finally, I hope that in the near future, under the guidance of the experienced and learned professors of
your esteemed institute, I can fully cultivate my capacities for independent thinking and research. I am
confident that the Masters in Logistics & Supply Chain Management will not only provide me with this
training but also allow me to grow personally and professionally. I have always been outgoing, so a new
opportunity at University of Northampton will give me the opportunity to make new contacts and friends.
Also the more a person knows the more they are willing to learn, so hopefully, a Logistics & Supply
Chain Management degree will allow me to pursue new spheres as well. Also, my leadership skills,
positive attitude, time management, problem-solving, patience and multitasking, will allow me to be
useful in this same area.

I consider this opportunity as a new stage in my life, which will help me to move forward and to grow. I
want to develop and improve my skills, I want to acquire new knowledge and apply it in real life, use it,
explore my ideas and finally achieve whatever I'm looking for. I believe that if a person has great self-
confidence, a great desire and great passion they can achieve anything, however much time and effort it
takes. When it comes to me, I define myself as someone who is curious and eager to learn new things and
open new windows to see the world from different angles.

I am optimist in viewing the world and my future and the sayings of great Paulo Coelho “When a person
really desires something, all the universe conspires to help that person to realize his dream.” had inspired
my vision. The gestures of my surrounding transcended a positive energy and enriched my personality.
