At the Beijing University, the country’s best institution of higher learning, I continued to be the best student of the class. The university’s business school, to which the Finance & Accounting Department belongs, emphasizes, English and computers. I did well in all of them. In the final exams, I got the full grade for calculus, and the highest grade in my class in statistics, liner algebra, microeconomics, finance, banking and econometrics. My average grade was 90 on the 1 to 100 scale, making me the undisputed academic leader among my fellow students.
I began to have significant academic publications while I was still an undergraduate student, something highly unusual in China. Taking advantage of the university’s well cultivated atmosphere of academic freedom, I undertook extensive research on top of my regular course load, which culminated in the publication of a book, titled “Out of Dilemma”. As the principal author of the book, I made sure that the book presented an insightful study of the Western business management methods, especially those proven effective in the experience of the Fortune 500 corporations. The book was unique at the time in that detailed case studies were presented on a number of well-known Chinese companies against the Western business management approaches introduced in the book.
I was also the only undergraduate in my department who published a research paper in an academic journal. In the “The investment risk and its measurement”, published in the January 1996issue of Chinese Technology and Economy Science, I presented a mathematical model I myself have developed on the measurement of market risks. Although the model has yet to be proven in empirical research, it has received positive review among Chinese economists. It should serve as an advanced starting point for me to conduct further studies and research.
With an impeccable academic record and virtually unprecedented publications, I received many awards and honors, including the Outstanding Student Honor in October 1992, the Guanghua Scholarship in 1994, and the Outstanding Student Honor in 1996. In recognition of my achievements, the Business School of the Beijing University offered in 1996 to accept me for graduate studies without the normally mandatory examinations, a privilege that is granted to only what the university considers the exceptionally gifted.
I, however, declined the offer by my alma mater. Instead, I joined the Chinese Da Chuan (Group) Company, one of the world’s biggest shipping companies, to work with its Planning & Financial Division at its headquarters in Beijing. I wanted to apply what I had learned both in class and outside of it to analysis of real business operations before I commenced my graduate studies.
That has since proved to be the right decision. Working with the Chinese Da Chuan Company, with its 117 branches around the world, gave me a vantage point from which I easily and regularly observe all sorts of financial activities, such as the capital flow, the investment, the making of accounting statements, the cost control, and the innovation in accounting computer systems. This has not only enriched my knowledge of finance and given me clear perception into the company itself but also provided me with the necessary empirical data for more advanced studies in general.
While with the Chinese Da Chuan Company, I saw first hand just how big the differences are between the accounting practices in China and those in the developed world. To summarize my observations, I published a paper titled “The Comparison between Foreign Accounting Information System and Domestic Accounting Information System” in the respected journal of Finance and Accounting for Communications. On the basis of these observations, I began to appreciate China’s critical need to learn the more sophisticated accounting practices from the West. In accounting as in so many other areas, China must bridge the gap with the West if it is to survive and develop in the develop in the ever shrinking global village.
Two years has passed since I first started at the Chinese Da Chuan Company, and I now feel that it is essential that I receive further and more advanced training in a quality Western university. Hence my application for acceptance into your university.
出国留学个人陈述范文中文
现在无论是从诸如电视、杂志、网络等媒体上接受到的,还是自己亲身体验到的,都显示出了现在生态环境问题的恶化的现实,叫人不能不担心。中国中西部干化、沙化现象明显;北京市郊一些原先是草木繁茂、流水淙淙的“荒地”在一夜之间就被填平盖上了四四方方的火柴盒,然后是北京几乎都不下雪的冬天;我家小区物业为了美化环境弄出的小河很快就成了臭水沟。以上这些看起来似乎是工业化或别的团体个人的行为,与己无关,也没那个能力权利去管。但这理由却不能使我心安,因为在日常生活中,我们的很多行为都对生态的可持续发展够成危险。例如我们每天沐浴时用的洗发液如果不经过非常严格的处理就会对水系统造成威胁。于是我相当认真地注意收集解决此类问题的方法,结果出乎意料的发现传统的习俗更能解决问题,例如傣族人就用发酵了的淘米水洗头发,这绝对环保而且因为用这个很多傣族人到老都是一头黑发;中国的古老中医用草药银针只治病,好像没有什么抗生素的问题。我有点不明白,似乎传统的生活方式跟自然更为友好,那么我们的生物科学又有什么别的特殊的作用么?所以我想到美国这个科学更为发达,科学更接近科学的地方学习,弄清楚它,试着用它来解决一些恶性循环的问题,维护一个和谐的生存环境,或者用科学解释、沟通类似中医这样的传统方式与现代科学。(责任编辑:一枝笔写作编辑)
