I’m choosing to study MSc Management at UCL as its modules such as Accounting, Finance and Business

economics are already incorporated within my BSc Accounting & Business Economics degree and are
topics I am very fond of but I would also love to study deeper into business and management and UCL is
exactly what I am looking for, combining topics that I’m already so fervent about and looking into a
broader business view.As well as engaging with academic staff, I also look forward to interactingand
learningfromUCL’s diverse range of students in the MSc Management programme. I believe I have the
ideas, innovation and tenacity to succeed tobe abeneficialstudent of the Management Science and
Innovation department in an internationally recognised institution such as the UCL. Being in such an
intellectually richenvironment will develop and amplify all the qualities I have to enable me to procure a
prominent position in management.My second year at university has sharpened my whole thinking
process and enabled me to realise how I could contribute to the business world and the dexterity I have
in order to succeed in an organisation. One the captivating tasks of my second year financial accounting
module was to analyse the annual reports of Rolls Royce and BAE systems for investment purposes and
use this to produce a written report and develop a presentation with four other students to present to
the module leaders and another group. In addition I was also assigned to manage the group thus
delegating each individual to evaluate a specific section of the annualreport and I effectively utilized
each person’s aptitude to match their contribution to the given task. I took the opportunity to apply
ratio analysis in both companies’financial statements. Our team work and effort resulted in a first class
grade in both my report and my oral presentation but more importantly it showed me howto adapt to a
managerial role and use my interpersonal skills tohelp my team mates and myself to achieve our goals. I
am now more confident that I wish to pursue postgraduate studies in Managementas the skills I possess
can be fully utilized in this career path.I am very excited by the consultancy project that UCL has to offer
and I will no doubt replicate the same commitment reflected in my previous group project but to a
much higher degree and show how diligentI amin studying in managementand practically applying what
I have learnt.Upon my completion ofthe MSc I hope move into general strategy consultancy and I aimto
specialising into sales and marketing strategies. I have achieved highFirst Class grades in all of my
modules and I am continuing this effort but even more so through my final year. I hope this is only the
beginning in my journey to seek knowledge and experience in order to attain an executive role in an
organisation and
