Hi,
I hope this essay won't be verbose for you, but I also want to get few helps from you, giving me some idea to make the essay better. Please feel free to comment or rephrase, making my purpose clear.

Dealing with people is exciting to me, promoting the arts industry may be what I want to attempt.

Grateful to see any message.

I want to apply for _________ master's degree program at the University of _________ because it is very well respected and can help enhance my future career. Working in the field of and with artists has my dream and this has taken shape through my experiences of being an actor, dancer, technician for the theatre and even a director. These gave me the idea of pursuing a career in the field of curating or arts management. Since having instruction in a different field in my undergraduate studies, I think it is important to complete my programme of study in the field of Arts Management if I am to develop my degree in this field.

I graduated from the ____________ Department of __________University in 2014, and I majored in anthropology, minored in sociology. Being different from other departments, it's free to choose what you like to study in different disciplines. In order to improve my sense of the arts, anthropology, gender studies, history, sociology, philosophy were all the factors I chose to inspire myself, and also, was easy for me to engage interdisciplinary studies, complex projects like arts management. I found that these could always make me excited and pleased after completing the course and has made me want to focus on this field for my career. I have found that not only academic training could be the foundation for my postgraduate study, but practical performance experiences including dance and drama have also made me conversant with multi-faceted arts.

Although I have not got many experiences of performance art, I have had a leading and supporting role in the crew of the department to conduct an annual drama play, so I have been exposed to the field from a practical perspective, but I still had little idea about what is required in terms of management.

For this reason, I became an exchange student in Beijing and studied in the _______ Department was a great occasion; I took two courses of "History of Art Market" and "Design Criticism", and these taught me a lot about art market operating and critical writing. Further, I showed my talents for administration by joining the student association both in Taiwan and Beijing. Serving in public affairs was not an easy mission as we had to deliver speeches and promote the student movement: we were tasked with achieving more for less. Due to our diligence and careful planning as well as frequent negotiations between students and the school, we achieved the goals we had been set. These included putting forward the claims to school such as maintaining the fees for dormitories and extending the opening hour of the library. Further, we also worked tirelessly on behalf of the students and held events such as throwing the parties and providing the mattresses for freshmen.

I worked in the auditorium of the university as a part-time job for three years, joined a documentary project for the charitable foundation. Here I helped the department to publish the collected works with my editing ability. I was also elected as the leader of a dormitory who needs to mediate the conflict between students. Unlike the universities of Europe, the dormitories in Taiwan usually consist of quad rooms and students in dorms share one or two public facilities. My administrative abilities developed by dealing with many claims from over four hundred students, I built a team to review the budget, hold activities and have kinds of public services, sometimes people are complicated than we think especially when we lived together, but I insist each condition should be treated case by case, if I could be attentive to people's needs, resolving matters and resulting in well, it will give me such the great accomplishment. Another important job for me was working in the auditorium, works including Marley floor placing, piano recording, and movie featuring, from front stage to backstage, every unpredictable moment trained me more astute.

I appreciated masterful performances and I would like very much to work in this field. I would like to combine my love of art with my talent for administration and develop my vocation. The United Kingdom has a wealth of resources from galleries to art and cultural venues that I can learn from. Hopefully, I could take part in local companies, galleries or NGOs to broaden my horizons and also help me to assimilate into different cultures; this can help broaden my perspective and I could bring my new ideas back to Taiwan. If I were accepted to study at your master's degree, after I graduate, I hope to bring Taiwan's artist out in the world and make buyers over the world know more about Taiwan and the hidden talent here.

Thank you very much for your time.

Graduate / 'heritage management and cultural landscape' - Erasmus Mundus Letter of Motivationon; "world peace" [9]

Hi, everyone
I want to apply for the master degree program of Erasmus Mundus, I am really fascinated with their curriculum plan. Hope you could help me correct this letter better, I appreciate any suggestion and critique. Please feel free to leave your message : )

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　(no more than one sheet )
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

From the young age, "world peace" always could be one of my wishes at any wishing occasion, in spite of being teased for this naive thought, I know I may not be a superman to save the world, but entering the international organization like UNESCO may be possible. That is why I am interested to apply for DYCLAM program, being an individual of human being; I hope I could do more for the people. From such a small island, Taiwan, I am eager for joining the communities of cultural conservation and heritage studies over the world.

I graduated from the Humanities and Social Sciences Department of National Tsing Hua University in 2014, majored in anthropology, minored in sociology. And I also studied anthropology, history, sociology and aesthetics as my interests. As a result, it was easy for me to engage interdisciplinary studies, interconnect various specializations. I am proud to assume that it is my most special and precious character to differ from other candidates. Besides, my work experience in college makes me acutely operate many fields of administration, listening to the real needs from the opposite, keeping empathy while facing hostility.

Once, my archaeology professor guided the class to Yuanshan heritage, which belongs to Neolithic. It was the first time I felt we are so close to heritage when he dig the ground by hand then picking up one piece of pottery just near the sidewalk at Yuanshan Park. Thousands of years of history buried underneath your feet, it was impressive and moving. Nevertheless, it was frustrating while TV broadcasted that Buddhas of Bamiyan was bombarded from Taliban, or ISIS sold ancient artifacts and destroyed cultural heritages. How could these heritages of the splendid civilization be demolished by offspring? Due to my discipline of archeology, I knew that contrast to the spiritual elements, the substance of human being represents more directly relevant to living of people, and it needs the process of long-term accumulation, and then appears the historical meaning and value. I hope I could join your crew to protect them from the ruins (the wars, the religious conflicts, the exploitations, and so on).

I cannot wait for attending your course, although there may have some challenges among language, adaptation and fiercely dynamic environment, but for me, more challenging, more exciting. I want to be an expert in immaterial heritage studies (for this reason, I learnt Beijing opera and Kunqu opera). I am also fascinated with material relics. I would like to develop my vocation through your curriculum, face the worldwide issues, and enter the institutions in Europe. Finally, I will bring whole my experience back to my small island, Taiwan, help my nation build a stronger foundation of theories and practices in this field.
