     Those considerations naturally lead me to apply for an MSc program in social and organizational psychology. My choice of XX is motivated by the fact that it is the only UK institutions solely dedicated to the social sciences in a thriving academic community; the program offers multidisciplinary coverage of organizational contexts, processes and cases, uniquely emphasizing the development of analytical skills and the integration of theory and practice for the creative work in organizations. Your highly focused compulsory courses and a wide selection of optional courses, plus an exciting group of international students with a diversity of academic, professional and cultural backgrounds, fascinate me. From your program I wish to be instructed in the latest theories and research methods in organizational social psychology. Besides compulsory courses, I am interested in such optional courses as Organizational and Social Decision Making, Knowledge Processes in Organizations, Issues in Organizational and Social Psychology, Organizational Life, and Cognition and Culture.

     In China, the transformation of the state-owned large-scale enterprises has basically ended and countless medium-sized private enterprises have emerged. I am interested in studying the organizational behavior/psychology of those two types of enterprises under the unique social and economic contexts of China. It is my belief that, by applying my knowledge from XX program, I will be able to do some pioneering research on this subject. My career objective is to seek a teaching position at the School of International of XX where I can offer a course in English on organizational psychology/behavior which will incorporate my research on Chinese enterprises.

     As a matter of fact, I have already done research on an important aspect of organization psychology/behavior. My BA thesis, Confucian Philosophy and Corporate Culture, offers an in-depth analysis of the relationship between Chinese ancient Confucianism and the current corporate cultures in China and how a highly efficient corporate culture can be developed from the Confucian wisdom. I would like to expand this research to make it more scientific, in-depth and systematic and my study at XX will add theoretical weight to my future research. During my internship at XX Company, I studied its corporate culture as a distinctive branch of oriental culture. Since my graduation in July 2002, I have been working as project assistant at XX of XX University’s XX School of Management. My main responsibility is translating the XX Textbooks published by the XX of the United States and helping American professors preparing teaching materials on three courses—Organizational Behavior, Management and Art of Leadership, and Business Negotiation. Apart from that, I have attended the School’s New Year Forum, XX Forum on the Investment and Development of Chinese Private Enterprises, and Corporate Social Responsibility & Corporate Governance in XX. During the International Mathematicians Meeting in XX, I listened to the lectures by XX and XX.

     Now, with a sound educational background, sufficient research potential and a spontaneous motivation, I am ready for academic pursuit on a higher level. I feel fortunate that, having just completed my undergraduate program, I have set on a career objective that closely accords with my interest and personality and is instrumental to our country’s economic development. Therefore, I will devote myself entirely to it with initiative and commitment.
