Personal
Statement
Because
nearly eighty percent of Taiwanese save money as the
basic means of managing their finances and consequently
this money can not used for transactions in the money
and capital markets. This fact reveals two important
phenomena. Firstly that the operating efficiency of
the financial market needs to be developed to cope with
the speedy economic development occurring in Taiwan,
and secondly that the investment and financial management
knowledge of the people in Taiwan needs to be cultivated.
Because of the clear need of more expertise in this
field I decided to study the MBA program concentrating
on Finance at your graduate school. My motivation, knowledge
and work experience are detailed below.
Motivation:
Since junior high school I have spent most of
my school holidays and vacations working in my parents'
plastics corporation. I am therefore familiar with most
aspects of the business and the operation of the company.
I discovered that my parents put most of their efforts
into the development of markets as most of the small
and medium enterprises do in Taiwan but they have a
very conservative attitude in financial management which
is the basic condition of a sound business enterprise.
From that moment on I have been very interested in finance.
Knowledge:
At the National Chengchi University I majored in Economics.
During each semester I was always at the top of the
class and received honors and scholarships several times,
both at the university and outside school (please refer
to the attached resume). When I graduated from the school
I was the top Economics student. All my efforts are
in hopes of increasing the learning of economic theories
and geometrical and statistical skills to back me up
for advanced studies.
Extra-curricular Activities:
I attended several associations and participated
activities after class in order to develop personal
connections, interests and knowledge. I was elected
to be the president of the Flower Arrangement Association
in July 1991. This was an especially important experience
for me. I learned how to communicate and negotiate important
events, made personnel arrangements and built up brief
and concise management models for payments. These models
were successfully put into operation and became the
blueprint for the next president. Because of these experiences
I take management with more interest.
Research Experience:
After graduation in June 1992 I was offered a job
at the Chung-hua Institution for Economic Research as
a research assistant to Dr. Ya-hwei Yang who is both
a Research Fellow and a Deputy Director of Taiwan Economic
Division. I have gained much professional knowledge,
been able to develop and use various analytical skills
and improved the ways in which I think about and solve
problems by assisting in the completion of projects
such as "Financial Policies of Taiwan and the Impact"
and "Economic Criminals and Business Cycles".
I perceived intuitively that economic phenomena are
actually related to some specific policies and variables.
By means of empirical analysis it is possible to predict
the effects on the markets in the future. These predictions
could well offer a basis for developing the best strategies
and policies.
I am also a teaching assistant of Finance and Banking
at Fu Jen Catholic University. This job provides me
with good study opportunities and strengthened my decision
to go to America to study finance. After comparing the
Taiwanese and American financial systems I realized
that the American system was more sound and complete
and it could be an example for Taiwan to follows:
Study
and Career Plan:
My short-term objective is to complete my MBA graduate
studies at your school. I intend to study in depth the
intact theories, appliances and practical skills in
the financial area.
My medium-term objective is to utilize what I learn
at school and gain practical experience by working in
the financial division of an internationally well known
company with high potential.
My
long-term objective is to help my parents with their
company by improving the financial management so that
capital can be used much more effectively to strengthen
the business.
Interest
in New York University:
Stern's
MBA program is up-to-date. It stresses the international
dimensions of management and values the growing interest
of entrepreneurship , the urgent needs for solid business
communication skills, as well as the partnerships between
academia and business. The new $68 million Management
Education Center at Stern's verifies your school's emphasis
on the quality of professional education. In addition,
Stern's finance faculty members are renowned for their
varied expertise and have just been given the number
one ranking for published research. Courses that I am
interested in taking at Stern's are Corporate Finance,
International Financial Management, Working Capital
Management, and Corporate Mergers and Acquisition. I
also hope to take part in the two-month summer internship
and would like to be involved in the Graduated Finance
Association or UBA to learn more about business and
finance.
Conclusion:
After
reading your brochure on the MBA program I consider
that you have a really good program. Your curriculum
is diverse and fits my learning goals in that there
is a combination of theories and practical skills. I
believe that I will be successful in the MBA program
and can achieve distinction in my studies if my application
is accepted. |

STUDY
PLAN
I.
Objectives
My objective is to get an MS and Ph.D. degree in mechanical
engineering from your university.
I will choose fluid ; thermoscience as my concentration
in the future. My long-term goal is to do research and
teach in Taiwan, like my father, Dr. Chao-Chen Chen,
a professor at National Taiwan University.
II. Academic Background
I joined the Joint National College Entrance Exam
for Taiwan universities in 1986, and ranked in the top
250 out of more than 100,000. I went to the National
Taiwan University and majored in mechanical engineering.
During my four years of school, I was interested in
thermoscience, fluid mechanics, design and manufacturing.
Besides, my junior year I tookSpecial Topics for B.S.
Students". My topic was ;Step Motor Control", which
gave me experience in the C language and other uses
of the computer. Four times, I received Book Coupon
Awards, an honor only granted to students in the top
five percent in my department at N.T.U. In 1990, I graduated
and ranked fifth in a class of 125 students.
In addition, I have learned a great deal about electronics,
computers and management science, and other related
fields outside my major, which increases my potential
and ability for graduate study in the future.
I was also interested in participating in extracurricular
activities, joining the Science Study Club in 1986,
being interested in automotive and aerospace engineering.
Due to my professional knowledge and good public demeanor,
I was elected leader of public relation of the Club
in 1988, when I planned the Aviation and Aerospace Week
and the First Annual Campus Motor Show. I was also the
chief editor of Science Today, in 1989, leading that
magazine to be ranked first in the 1990 Fuh-Chung Prize.
I was the advisor of the science study club from 1989
to 1990, and two times planned the school-wide Journey
of Natural Science. From these activities, I learned
a lot about leadership, in addition to professional
knowledge in my field.
Now I am completing my obligatory military service
as a second lieutenant serving at the Taipei Army Ordnance
Factory as an Ordnance Officer. My duties include planning
the military training program for army vehicles and
maintaining several kinds of vehicles such as M35, M151,
Hamer. I will be discharged in May of 1992.
III. Motivation
I have been interest in the structure and body design
of automobiles since high school. I have also tried
to maintain a car by myself. For these reasons, I chose
to major in mechanical engineering at my university.
During my junior year, I took courses on thermodynamics
and fluid mechanics, and found myself falling in love
with them. Therefore, I would like to continue studying
them, and your school's program seems to fit my needs.
The faculty, equipment, and tradition of excellence
have convinced me that it will be the best environment
for study for me.
IV. Study Plan
After my four years of university study, I found
that my primary interest lies in thermodynamics and
fluid mechanics as well as manufacturing and biomechanical
engineering. During my graduate study, I want to study
in these fields:
Fluid
Mechanics Aerospace Engineering
a) theoretical and experimental studies of fluid dynamics
b) fundamental studies of turbulent flow
c) unsteady aerodynamics and boundary layer separation
d) two-and three-dimensional supersonic flows
e) Airplane and V/STOL flight dynamics and handling
qualitie
Besides
above, while studying for my master's degree, I hope
to reinforce my physical understanding, mathematical
handling of theories, and ability to think independently;
these skills will be a strong foundation on which I
can continue my studies to earn my Ph.D.
V.
Future Plan
After I earn my Ph.D., I hope to return to Taiwan
and teach mechanical engineering or a related field.
VI.
Conclusion
With my outstanding academic performance, professional
research experience, and potential, I believe I will
be able to contribute substantially to your institution
and achieve the highest goals I have set for myself. |
