Graduate / Short statement of purpose for Lund MSc about accounting and management control [2]
Hi, Here is the SOP requirement details: What are your reasons for applying to this programme, and your selected specialisation? Relate to previous experience and personal qualifications and how you see the programme furthering your development in these respects. And the character limit is 1000. I'd be happy to receive some feedback! Thanks.
Below is my answer:
I firmly believe that people's skills are enhanced through continuous learning and practice, the principle that drove my decision to pursue this program, majoring in accounting and management control. My initial cognitive journey began with six years of studying accounting theory, but I realized the practical application was much more challenging. Over the past ten years, I have worked in finance departments in various industries. Sometimes finance team was criticized for not being able to provide actionable advice. This prompted me to ponder how the finance team could add value to the company while managing risks effectively.
Faced with these doubts, I am convinced that strengthening my theoretical knowledge, particularly in areas such as management and control, is valuable. With this knowledge, I aim to advance into a forward-thinking financial controller. Additionally, I am eager to offer a pragmatic viewpoint to the course and enrich classroom discussions.
