Scholarship / Why I take master of agribusiness? AAS Aplication [4]

MY OPTIONS - The Unversity of Queensland AND melbourne University

The following are the reasons why I propose master of agribusiness. Firstly, I am an oyster mushroom entrepreneur. This master relates to my current profession. I am convinced that it is the most appropriate one to lead me to become a great agricultural entrepreneur. Through studying the courses provided, I would like to broaden and enrich my knowledge in building a marketing network of agricultural products that are independent, advanced, and effective. I also want to improve my competence to face the challenges of agricultural market competition. So I will have the ability to compete and create a fair marketing chain. Secondly, I am an active member of Banten Mushroom Farmers Cooperative, an organization established by mushroom farmers. In 2018 until the end of 2019, I served as a regional coordinator to assist 14 members. I want to contribute to advance our organization. Therefore, I am motivated to gain more knowledge and insight about human resource management, leadership, and other related courses. I believe that the in this master is appropriate to support me to be a competent leader of our organization.

These are my reasons why I propose The Unversity of Queensland as my first option because it provides master of agribusiness offering essential subjects that suit my goals and needs, such as leadership in rural industries, effective stakeholder engagement, and value chain management. It also provides an agribusiness research project which can enrich my research skills although this major is coursework. Moreover, based on QS World University, this university is the best in agriculture in Australia. University Melbourne becomes second option because the master of agribusiness at this university provides beneficial courses that will support my future careers, such as business strategy, leadership, managing markets, and human resource management. This major does not only conduct studies in the class but also provides an opportunity for its students to carry out minor research project. I believe that it will improve and broaden my skill and knowledge in market and agribusiness research. University Melbourne also has an excellent campus system including library facilities, international student supports services, and a curriculum that will help me to get more insight.
