Motivation letter for master degree of global supply chain. Please help me check it!

Dear Sir/Madam,

I would like to submit my application for Master degree program in … in

I have graduated with Bachelor of Banking and Finance in Banking Academy of Vietnam since August, 2018. Moreover, it was the first time I have learned Logistics and International Trading including International Trade Transaction, Transportation and Insurance in Foreign Trade, International Payment and Import – Export Financing and International Trade Financing. After all, they have been my big inspiration and I actually got excellent marks in these modules as you can saw from my academic transcript.

I was born and lived for 12 years in a countryside in Vietnam, namely, Thai Binh, which is considered as one of the largest paddy fields in my country. Therefore, many stories about rice, agriculture and farmers go deeply into my mind even when I was a little girl. I am also proud of my country’s diverse food- stuffs such as fruits, vegetables and seafood I can enjoy during the year and the long coast which allows the shipment of cargo to be convenient and easy. However, these factors are not enough to stimulate exportation of agricultural goods in Vietnam, which is a main restlessness of many Vietnamese generations.

When I worked as an intern at AEON Co., Ltd – a big Japanese retail-store company. We faced a huge number of products imported worldwide everyday but it was quite hard to find a high-quality agricultural good made in Vietnam totally. I always dream of one day when Vietnamese agriculture becomes a big name of outstanding quality and global popularity. I hope that not only food-stuffs but also the effort of farmers in Vietnam will be rightly valued. Therefore, I would like to extend my educational background with a master degree of supply chain management to gain the skills and qualifications needed to make my dream come true.

When I worked as a fundraising member in USGuide Vietnam, I had chance to talk with many people studying abroad, which make my desire in studying abroad bigger and bigger. What's more, I am eager to live and study in a new environment to meet, chat and make friends with new people. So I decide to join an MSc program abroad. And it is also necessary to understand culture and eating habit of foreigners if I want to bring Vietnam agriculture worldwide.

After deciding learning MSc abroad, I have performed a lot a research on the Internet, and talked with many supervisors in my internship company and professors in my university, to target which university's master program I can benefit from most . First of all, Venlo, Netherlands where the program happens is home to the headquarters and distribution facilities of many logistics service providers. Then I favorite the problem-based learning methods, rather small-scale class and amazing education opportunities such as experiencing global supply chain in action and internship. This program is the 1^st in its category in the national Keuzegids ranking which has a good reputation. Besides, the Holland- High potential scholarship is so fascinating to all non EU/EEA students, which could greatly release the financial burdens of studying abroad. All things considered, my all research has encouraged me to chase an MSc program at your institution.

After graduation, I plan to seek employment in the trading department in Ministry of Agriculture in Vietnam. I hope to exert my knowledge to expand the market of Vietnam agriculture as I expected and continue greater personal development. My career goal is to be the core member of team after about 5 years after my graduation and be the team leader after 10 years. By the time I am well experienced after years of working, I will probably consider applying for MBA program to improve my management. I am convinced the MSc program offered by UM will help me to achieve my career goal.

Thank you very much for considering my application and I am looking forward to hearing from you.

Sincerely,
