¶ … Career Objectives
Pursuing an MS in Finance is the first step toward beginning the rest of my life. I am excited to be this close to graduating from college and taking the next step, entering graduate school. I am pleased about moving closer to launching my career and about exploring the possibilities that lie ahead. This Statement of Purpose discusses my progress to this point and my plans for the future, and considers how an MS in Finance will help me achieve my goals.
Because I understand that a Masters degree does not automatically qualify me for career advancement, I want to pursue realistic goals, and that includes personal satisfaction. Whenever I have considered my long-term educational plans, I always thought in terms of a Masters degree, and possibly even a doctorate. So obtaining a masters degree will satisfy one long-term goal and put me in position to pursue another one.
Another personal goal has been to learn about subjects that fascinate me and getting an MS in finance will help me do that. I will be taking a number of classes on subjects that I want to learn more about. Once I master these subjects thru graduate studies, I get to work in a field that lets me make use of this knowledge.
Because of investing so much time and effort in undergraduate school, I have also had a lot of time to consider career objectives, and what it will mean to have an advanced degree. I plan to work in a field that I am passionate about, and that means the continued study of finance. The more I learn about the field of finance, the more fascinating I find it. Graduate school will help me expand...
