Why I Chose the Munich Business School

I chose to attend WBU for its insistence on the need to prepare well-educated individuals in a Christian environment. For me, undertaking my studies in such an institution would in addition to developing my moral character also enable me to become a highly productive professional in my chosen career. As a result of coursework completed at the university, I have experienced both academic and professional growth in a number of academic areas. In terms of personal growth, I am now a better communicator. Further, I now regard myself a better decision maker. On the other hand, I have also grown professionally as far as my understanding of management theory and practice is concerned. My understanding of organizational behavior has also been enhanced as a result of coursework completed at the university.

Although the many roles of a business professor are difficult to determine, Mercer University’s mission statement provides a surprisingly thorough account of these roles. The mission statement, “to teach, to learn, to create, to discover, to inspire, to empower and to serve,” may not seem like a description of the roles, but one would struggle fruitlessly to think of a great business professor who did not fulfill these roles. The importance of these roles is undeniable, however, among these roles, learning is especially important and is also the most appealing to me. This appeal is due not only because learning is the precursor for other roles, but also because of my personal adoration of learning.

Based on my interests, I will be applying to the Rutgers University Business School. My transcript, academic interests, and extracurricular involvement reflect a diverse scholastic experience. RBS is the ideal institute to enrich my academic prowess, allowing me to differentiate myself in an increasingly diversifying global economy.

At the French American School of New York, the bi-lingual/bi-cultural school I attend, I am preparing for the French Baccalaureate in Economics and Social Sciences with a specialty in mathematics. My strongest subjects are mathematics and art. Thus my curriculum will provide me with the proper preparation for studying business and management. Furthermore, my Summer Programs in 2014 and 2015 have solidified my aspiration. Through these extra-curricular experiences, I have been exposed to new disciplines such as marketing, economics and international

Hours upon end are spent, face buried in a laptop or newspaper, analyzing stock dividends and bonds yields. Warren Buffett books and Wall Street Journal editions - a glimpse of the night stand that has well deservedly earned me the label “business nerd” by family and friends. I have, if not an obsession, a passion for studying finance. Aspiring to work in Investment Banking, I applied to Ross as it provides excellent exposure to the world of finance through premiere recruiting opportunities and a well-constructed business curriculum that merges the science of economics with the cultivation of leadership. At Michigan, freshman students are subject to a liberal arts curriculum, which I believe can benefit me in becoming a well-rounded student. Although I have a passion for finance, I cannot imagine isolating my studies to one subject for four years of school. In my Sophomore year, I would dive into financial studies such as accounting and business strategy; but Ross also emphasizes the ‘positive decisions’ course, which interests me because it acknowledges the impact that economic decisions have on society. Coming from a middle class background, I find it important to acknowledge the effect that the cost of living or price of gas have on family finances. Ross’s Junior and Senior curriculums step past the theoretical studies of economics and into the real world application of business skills, such as ‘communication strategy’ and ‘corporate strategy.’ I believe exposure to a collaborative environment in these years can assist me in cultivating a team

The course gave me a new prospective while building on foundational concepts I have learned at school during my ‘Economics & Social Science’ courses as well as leveraging my interest for international and multi-cultural matters. I was particularly intrigued and interested by the session we had about a comparative analysis of productive efficiency between the US and Japan. I discovered the importance of the legal matters such as patents or international arbitration. I also enjoyed working as a team on a practical case study. In our group we decided to work on the introduction of a US Fashion brand on the French market going through the overall strategic business

As I am now a sophomore in standing, I hope to build my understanding of economics through internships and career oriented opportunities. With Michigan’s resources such as Handshake, LSA Opportunity Hub and the backing of a strong alumni network, I look forward to immersing myself in the field of economics and creating and maintaining meaningful business relations. In addition, a goal I hope to pursue at Michigan is to study abroad in hopes of experiencing new cultures different from my own and furthering my knowledge of economics from different perspectives. I plan to become a global citizen through my collegiate years and beyond and I believe that through the elite economics department and many strong study abroad programs, I will thrive as an academically successful individual at Michigan.

Since I’m the first person in my family to attend a university, it always appeared important to my family that I receive an exceptional education. The reason why I decided to go to college is because I believe it would help me obtain connections. I chose the W.P Carey School of Business because it is one of the best business schools in the nation and I believe that it would help further improve my education. My major is Global Politics; I choose it because a global politics degree promotes solid business skills and global understanding. A global politics degree will help me become more responsible and improve my leadership skills.

I had the joy of attending Signature School, Indiana’s first public charter high school and continually ranked one of the best schools in the country. With a distinct international focus, SIG stood as a liberal island in a sea of Southern Indiana red. It pushed every boundary there was, and continued to push all of my borders, mentally and geographically. High school took me abroad for the first time and instilled in me my adoration of international travel. It was here that I fell in love with economics, finance, and international markets. I threw myself into school with as much zeal as I had gymnastics, placing my hope in a university that would allow me to see the world. Indiana University did just that. For four years it provided me with invaluable opportunities to study emerging markets in India and Croatia, and the German language in Austria. I continued my education in finance, and to my vast surprise, the state that I had so desperately tried to escape from my entire life, provided me with a world-class education. Following graduation, investment banking finally took me out of Indiana. I began my career on the shores of Lake Erie in Cleveland, Ohio and concluded it in San Francisco, California - finally a place that everyone wanted to visit. Eventually that unassailable urge to explore caught up

Secondly, I am keen to apply to the Spring Insight Programme for as I am thoroughly intrigued by the financial markets and International Banking, I intend to better understand how a leading investment bank works,

Obtaining a master’s degree may become an option offered to you by your employer to get to that top spot in your existing company you work for.

Managing international business in today’s globalized world will be challenging and interesting, and it will fulfill my career goal.

"Germany's 'social market' economy largely follows free-market principles, but with a considerable degree of government regulation and generous social welfare programs" (Doing business in Germany, 2013, Export.). When contemplating entering the German market, it is useful to learn from the example of other firms, including their mistakes. Germany, although superficially similar to the United States, Great Britain, and other European countries in many ways, has some critical cultural differences which will impact the ways in which a foreign company presents itself and interacts with local organizations.
