Statement of
purpose
I am ……………………… born on …………………, an
inhabitant of ……………….. …………… District, a beautiful suburb of ……………Rural. I
completed my school level in ……….. as there weren’t any good school and
colleges in my hometown previously. So, I have to migrate to Kathmandu in order
to pursue my school studies as well as my further studies. I was always keen to
learn about how tourism business is done and how it is operated so, I planned
to study Travel and Tourism in my higher studies. Later I found this studies
and business interesting and joined ………………. in ……………, continuing my Bachelors
degree in …………….. I learned different aspect of nature, culture and importance
of sustainable Tourism, which somehow relates with my childhood dream, a dream
to get involved in learning, promoting and preserving cultures and traditions
as well as natural aspects of my country, Nepal. Therefore, I found it a best
way to continue my career in tourism field.
However I felt unfulfilled from the
knowledge that I received during my Bachelor, seeing the prospective and
possibilities of Nepal's natural beauty. I thought I needed wide option and
more advancement in my thoughts and technique, which I was pretty sure that I
won't be able to receive in my own country. It’s a fact that many students
visit abroad to continue theirs educational level and I became one of them. The
resource, technology and our technique of our education systems are limited. Therefore,
I willing and motivated to pursue my further education on master of
International Hospitality Management at Edith Cowan University, 270, Joondalup
Drive, Joondalup, Western Australia 6027. Simultaneously, I am pursuing my
Academy, 223 vincent St,West perth WA 6005, Australia. Furthermore, I have explained
about myself. My academic qualifications, Socio-economic background of my
family, reason for choosing the subject and my future plans for my career.
I have
completed my 10th standard also known as School leaving Certificate
(SLC) in the year 2011 securing 75.13% which now is known as secondary
Educations Examination (SEE) and as per my field of interest I joined St.
Lawrence college which is located in Chabahil, Kathmandu for higher Secondary
Education (+2) in Management faculty where I choose hotel Management and travel
and tourism as my major subjects. I completed my higher education in the year
2014 acquiring 65% in aggregate. I joined bachelors in...Collage Address....... Nepal. I was a very hard
working student. Though I worked as a part timer in travel agency, I always
completed my assignment in given time period and secured good marks at the end
of each semester's except for 6th semester. In 6th
semester due to my health issues I wasn't able to score great marks and got
back papers but I completed it in second attempt. I secured not less than grade
B in each semesters with a score of ....... CGPA in aggregate with grade..... and
.......division. As Nepal's first language isn’t English so, as per the
requirement of the university I gave IELTS examination on ...Date.... and scored ...your Mark.... overall band score with minimum score of 5.5. As I couldn't
fulfill IELTS requirement I have to study Academic English Program.
I
was very sure that I wanted to recommence my further study in Australia not in
Nepal. I did research online regarding this concerned subject and comparatively
if I invest my money and time studying in Australia than in Nepal. I would grab
more opportunities and develop more ideas over the time period of my study and
stay in Australia. Alike Nepal, Australia is also known for its natural beauty,
cultural as well as artificial beauty. Which was also another reason I choose
to study in Australia. I am really happy and fortunate that my parents are very
supportive about my decision of studying in Australia. So my father Mr. Krishna
Ram Bhandari is sponsoring my whole education. My father works as vehicle
service in Nepal, we have rented our land for business house as well as earn
enough from agriculture also. So our financial situation is adequate enough for
them to support my studies and at the same time look after other miscellaneous
expenses of ours too. After my research online regarding my tuition fees,
living expenses and other stationery expenses I was convinced that I can surely
live and study in Australia.
In addition,
I choose Australia rather than the U.S.A, U.K, Japan, New Zealand and even my
home country Nepal because of quality and recognized degree. And ECU (Edith
Cowan University) one of the recognized universities of Perth, Australia, which
is also ranked as a category 1 institution. The environment and the people all
around the Australia are friendly; hence it is a multicultural country. Apart
from being a great place to get a first rate education, the mesmerizing beauty
of the cities, low crime rate, easy geographical condition, social harmony,
multicultural society and the way of living draw me closer to study in
Australia. The Australian universities and colleges are globally recognized and
have more job prospects and opportunity in the global market.
Australia
provides a wide range of subjects to choose and a greater opportunity to use
technology while studying, which is less practiced in developing countries like
Nepal. Also the technology used there is advanced and are updated to recent
advancements and findings. Australia offers a wide range of educational
opportunities and facilities for international students along with globally
recognized qualification. It is a golden opportunity for me to develop more
maturity and patience, growing more self confidence and self dependent so, I
believe that Masters of International Hospitality Management from Edith Cowan
University would help me to achieve my career aim and objectives.
My interest
to study Edith Cowan University came after a long research under courses
related to tourism and hospitality. I found several universities offering the
tourism and hospitality related courses; however they were not that convincing
and promising compared to ECU. Some were too expensive and some were not of my
interest for example, some universities have courses related to hospitality but
there were other course attached with them. But, Edith Cowan University offers
the exact course that I wanted to study and also the subjects that they offer
are new and are concerned with present issues in tourism.
Tourism and
hospitality is practiced in many places. This combined field will allow me to
take my career in a number of different directions. I am interested in cultural
exchange, touring, global hospitality operations management and many other tourism
related services such as; entertainment, managing people and event management.
Tourism is one of the fastest growing service industries in the world, whose
great variety makes it very interesting area of working. After completing my
master course, I am sure that I will be exposed to global opportunities where I
will be able to learn more about other cultures and new trend in hospitality
industry and will be able to compare and contrast with my own. That way I will
be able to make my study more interesting. I am a environment concerned person
as well, so I aim to get new knowledge on preserving and controlling
environment pollution. Because, it’s the environment that needs to be sustained
in order for tourism to be sustainable. Therefore I will apply the knowledge
that I will receive in ECU in Nepal’s tourism sector, hospitality sector and
pollution control so that its environment is safer for its locals and tourists.
My courses as per my research
from ECU website for Australia, Master of International Hospitality Management is
below:

people and organization
Marketing
leadership
Fundamentals
of value creation in business
Global
hospitality operations management
Business
in global context

Upon
completion of this course from Edith Cowan University (ECU) I shall return back
to my home country if I will not be able to join any further related programs.
After the successful completion of this course I will be able to get a
qualified job here in Nepal in one of the renowned tourism related
organizations with handsome salary.
I am fully
aware of visa obligation rule which I will surely follow upon my entry in Australia
and before entry in Australia. I will attend all of my classes more than 90%
and maintain my academic as much as I can. I will pay my tuition fees as per
the university rules and regulations and also be aware of not working more than
20 hours per week.
I hope my
purpose is convincing enough to you. Hopefully, you would provide me an
admission to Edith Cowan University (ECU) and accept me as a valuable student
member of your institution. And, I have faith that you would let me pursue my
dream to study in Australia so that afterwards I could contribute towards the
field of travel and tourism of my nation
through my experience and knowledge from Australia.
Thank
you,
Your
Sincerely:
Mr.
