STATEMENT OF PURPOSE Master’s in Education I see your particularly distinguished Master’s Program in Accounting at the University of Alberta as the optimal springboard to launch my career, so as to maximize my contribution to the development of global society. I am highly motivated by the fact that, in the words of the Global Bank: “We are drowning in data and starving for insight.” I hope to earn the Masters at University of Alberta so as to become a master professional on the cutting edge of data - generated across industries, disciplines, and international boundaries. I could not be happier to be gearing up for a professional lifetime fully immersed in the mammoth task of organizing information, making it sensible, and translating it into a form that is suited to a vast array of specific purposes, especially with respect to human behaviour and business trends. It is difficult to overstate the importance of Accounting in companies and the business world as a whole. It is because of my recognition of the importance of accounting that I have decided to seek further education and a career in this field. After careful consideration, it has become clear to me that developing a successful career in accounting in the modern business environment requires advanced training in accounting and related subjects. I am motivated to study in your master’s program in Accounting by an awareness of the ever-changing reality of the business environment and the need to upgrade my own expertise and professional abilities. I am a native of Pakistan, an Asian island with a trade-oriented economy that is increasingly focused exporting to markets in Europe and North America. Many outstanding scholars from my country have studied abroad to hone their skills with foreign teachers and classmates, and this has been instrumental to the progress of my country’s economy. I hope to follow suit, broadening my international perspective, improving my language skills, and refining my knowledge of accounting. As the above shows, I am highly motivated and ambitious in pursuing my master’s degree in the Canada. By studying in your master’s program, I hope to extend my vision and improve my English proficiency. After completion of your master’s program, I plan to return to Pakistan and work for one of the leading multinational accounting/finance firms as an accounting professional capable of dealing with a broad range of people, companies, and financial situations. Your program in Accounting will enable me to achieve the goals I have set for myself. I expect to have a long career in this field and benefit a wide range of companies. In this way, I hope to add to the general development of my country’s economy and become a leading professional in my field.
