Personal Statement
Currently, I am a student at Queen’s University Belfast, UK where I matriculated for a
Bachelor of Science in Finance since September, 2012. My aim is to graduate with a Second
class honours, upper division (2:1).
The subjects I have covered are so fascinating and compel me to acquire extended
knowledge and skills beyond my syllabus. These subjects include Investment Analysis,
Corporate Finance, and Financial Econometrics. My thirst for expertise and the need to test my
applied skills and fundamentals in this discipline makes me work as I continue my studies. This
immensely improves my knowledge parallel to my studies as well as appreciating real life
undertakings and application of theoretical course work. As from Oct, 2014 to Nov, 2014, I have
been deployed at Santander bank where I am gaining valuable insight and knowledge into the
world of banking. In Jul, 2014-Aug, 2014, I worked with PING’AN Bank, Shenzhen, China as
an assistant to the Account Manager. From my well-developed communication skills, I managed
to communicate effectively with customers on mortgage processes, services, and contract’s
details.
Besides my coursework related activities, I worked as a part-time staff at Tao Noodles
Bar, Belfast, UK from Oct, 2012 to Jun, 2013 when I left for Zen Japanese Restaurant, Belfast,
UK under the same capacity from Sep, 2013 to present. The two settings have immensely
improved my communication skills, made me a team player and work under pressure.
Additionally, I can deliver excellent customer services.

As a leader, I worked as a Liaison Department Vice-Minister in Chinese Student and
Scholars Association (CSSA), Queen’s University Belfast, UK from Oct, 2012 to Jun, 2013
where I created sponsorship plans and organized various events. In Aug, 2014 to Sep, 2014, I
played the role of the students’ guide during new students’ enrollment and registration at Queen’s
University Belfast, UK. I took part in the purchasing and sales activities in the 26th Universiade
volunteers, Shenzhen, China in August, 2011 where I acquired knowledge of marketing
strategies.
My ambition to be an outstanding finance and investment expert, either as a manager or
an analyst traces back from my childhood when I realized that investment revolves around
timing, opportunities as well as choices. Consequently, the choices we make today greatly
influence the goals we aspire to achieve.
While surfing through your prestigious University’s website, I was amazed by its
qualified professors as well as the rich curricula in Graduate program that will further
complement my undergraduate degree in Finance. Embracing this opportunity to pursue my
master degree at your University will heighten my career as a skilled finance and investment
analyst and join the rapidly burgeoning community of finance and investment experts. Its
location offers a serene and conducive environment and weather for learning. I believe that the
course will provide me with a solid foundation in finance and investment-related theories and
concepts, as well as quantitative skills to develop my individual capacity.
I am, therefore, gladly applying to your university for my postgraduate degree in Finance
and Investment because I feel that from its rich curricula, it has a strong international focus with
