Here is my essay:
I am a senior student majoring in Intellectual Property Law at College of Law in my university.
At my sophomore year, I found my strong interest in International Economic Law and studied hard on it. However, the course in my university only gives me a solid foundation of International Economic Law, studying the LLM program at your university will help me acquire more professional knowledge and skills necessary for future research. Moreover, the LLM program in English Module will enable me to study firsthand materials directly other than translations in Chinese. I can also expand my horizon to Chinese and Comparative Law and Common Law by program electives. In a word, the LLM program provides me a good platform to study further, so I hereby apply for it.
Last year, a paper written by me and another student got awarded in school's contest for extracurricular science and technology work. That paper encouraged me to develop my potential in academic research. So I made my mind to do research in law especially in International Economic Law. Obviously, achieving the qualification of LLM is the first and big step of my career in research, which will demonstrate that I possess abilities and knowledge necessary for further research.
Working in the publicity department of our student union improve d my communicating and writing skills and brought up my leadership. During summer holidays, I volunteered to practice in local court and promoted the above skills. With skills and knowledge that I already have, I will perform better in postgraduate study to establish necessary foundation for my career. I expect that I could analyze and provide solutions to the international legal issues concerning business transactions after my study. Besides, I look forward to researching the issues that happen simultaneously while studying the LLM program.
