I write this personal statement in PyeongChang, Korea, where I am working as a volunteer for the 23th Winter Olympic Game. The purpose of this statement is to describe my wonderful personal experiences, motivation for postgraduate study and the career aspiration to support my application for MSc in Risk Management and Financial Engineering (RMFE) in Imperial College London.

As an enthusiast in travelling & backpacking, I have ever been to sixteen countries in four continents since I was a child. In June 2016, I attended thesummer school in UCLA to learn Psychology and R Programming. During the twomonths, I visited Los Angeles, San Francisco, New York and Yellowstone National Park in the spare time with several new friends that I made in class. After thesummer session in the US, I flew to Brazil alone, devoting myself into voluntaryservices for the 31th Summer Olympic Game held in Rio De Janeiro. I was grouped into a four-member team, exclusively offering operational support for ChineseTaipei Delegation which consisted of nearly one hundred athletes and officersin total. I was the only team member who can speak Mandarin and the other threewere from Qatar, United Kingdom and Greece. Thus I behaved as a team leader to coordinate various issues among the organizing committee, the delegation and myteam. In these four short weeks, I had run into lots of random problems that I did not even know were possible to be problems. What really makes it such anexperience is that there was a real mix of people involved. I made many newfriends aged from their twenties to fifties from all over the world. It was this unique experience that earned me the opportunity for being a winter Olympic Game volunteer in Korea in this month. I have grasped short dialogueand conversations of daily use in Portuguese and Korean. What I saw and heardand who I met oversea have made me become a global citizen with cross-cultural leadership, communication skills and international vision. It will be my core competitive edge to work in a multinational financial institution in London.

I am a self-driven and creative student who embraces change & innovation and proactively explores newly emerging and promising industries. I have been thinking about which field I should specialize in when I enter the workplace with degrees in Math and Finance. For this reason, I took three internships indifferent sectors of the financial industry, including digital marketing &analytics for retail banking, private equity investment in healthcare andmarket making & proprietary trading for financial derivatives, to look formy career interests. For the details of my responsibilities in each position, please refer to the CV attached. During the internships, I realized that I am passionate about turning financial data into actionable insights and enjoy the sense of achievement for problem solving and value creation. In consideration of work-life balance and getting advice from graduates of Imperial College, I have set one possible post-MSc career goal to be a Market Data Analyst in Bloomberg LP London. The role is responsible for collecting, analysing, processing and publishing financial data in one particular financial market sector (Equity, Fixed Income, FX, IPO and M&A). It requires a strong knowledge and understanding of the financial markets and various asset classes as well as programming-related skills in VBA, Python and SQL.

Not limited to derivatives pricing, algorithm trading and risk measurement,quantitative methods and tools are being widely employed in the financial industry for data-driven decision making, such as portfolio construction, credit scoring, accounting data analytics, fraud detection, AML and the emerging robo-advisor services. My motivation to purse MSc in RMFE is very simple – not for the purpose of being a quant or mathematician for pricing and trading, but to further hone quantitative skills that are frequently used in the industry and to gain deep understanding of the market, instruments as well as different sub-sectors & asset classes. In addition to core modules, I wouldlike to select “Big Data in Finance”, “C++ for Finance”, “Amplify TradingWorkshop” in Spring Term, and “Computational Finance with C++”, “Topics inFinTech”, “Macroeconomics and Finance for Practitioners” in Summer Term as electives. I also want to audit “International Finance” to learn the asset class of FX. I will work closely with Career & Professional Development Service to apply for full-time graduate positions or summer placement in London. The realization of this dedicated study plan, however, depends on whether the admission committee offer me a place on this programme.

I am confident that my academic background in mathematics and finance enables meto succeed in this highly quantitative programme. I have achieved an overall average grade of 71% in the last two academic years and 72% in all quantitative modules, which meets the first-class degree requirement in British higher educationsystem. I have learned or will learn courses in statistical methods, probability theory, operational research, numerical analysis, differential equations and network theory. They prepare me adequately for studying Financial Statistics, Stochastic Calculus, Computational Finance and Risk Management at Imperial. As a Chinese student who are now studying in the UK, what I can contribute to Imperial Community is to assist fellow students from mainland China to quickly adapt to British higher education.

My international experiences and the innovative mindset can benefit Imperial College Business School and are a perfect match with school’s mission &vision as well as the spirt and characteristics of the metropolitan city – London. I look forward to meeting high-calibre peers in the coming September at Imperial. This one-year journey will be the next opportunity for me to experience the world.

      当我写下这篇个人陈述的时候,我正在韩国平昌担任第23届冬季奥运会志愿者。这篇个人陈述旨在描述我丰富多彩的个人经历、攻读硕士课程的动机,以及我的职业抱负,来支持我申请帝国理工学院的风险管理与金融工程硕士课程。

    作为一个旅游爱好者,从小时候起我已经游历了四大洲共计十六个国家。2016年6月,我参加了加州大学洛杉矶分校的暑期课程,修读了心理学和R语言。在这近两个月的课余时间里,我和几个在课上新认识的几个朋友一起游玩了洛杉矶、旧金山、纽约和黄石国家公园。在美国的课程结束之后,我只身从北美洲飞往了南美洲,来到巴西里约热内卢参与了第31届夏季奥林匹克运动会志愿服务。我被分在了一个四人小组,为包含近一百名运动员和官员的中华台北代表团提供专属运营支持服务。我是团队成员中唯一一个会讲国语的,其他三人则来自于卡塔尔、英国和希腊。因此,我主动担当了团队领袖的角色,在奥组委、台北代表团和志愿服务组之间协调工作。在这短短的四周,我遇到了许多难以预见的困难。各种各样的人参与其中,使得这次志愿者活动成为一次精彩难忘的经历。我认识了许多来自世界各地的朋友,有的和我年龄相仿,有的则是忘年之交。正是这次独特的经历使我赢得了这个月担任冬奥会志愿者的机会。通过两次奥运志愿活动,我已经简单掌握了葡萄牙语和韩语的基本对话。我在海外的所见所闻所认识的人把我塑造成了一个具有跨文化领导力、沟通能力和国际化视野的全球公民。而这一点恰恰是我未来打算在伦敦的跨国金融机构工作的核心竞争力。

    我是一个自我驱动且有创造力的学生。我积极拥抱变革与创新,并乐于积极主动地探索新兴的有前景的行业领域。我一直在思考,当我拿着金融数学的学位进入职场的时候,我应当专注于哪个细分领域和具体业务?为此,我尝试参与了金融行业三个不同业务板块的实习,去探索我的职业兴趣,包括商业银行的零售银行营销分析、医疗健康产业的私募股权投资、金融衍生品的做市与自营交易。对于我在每一段实习中具体的工作内容和职责,请您参考申请中附上的我的个人简历,此处不再赘述。通过这些实习,我意识到,我对将金融数据转变为有价值的洞察很有热情。我享受这一过程中解决问题和创造价值的成就感。考虑到工作生活的平衡,同时也从帝国理工毕业生校友那里讨教了一些经验和建议,我初步树立一个硕士毕业后的职业目标,就是在伦敦的彭博担任市场数据分析师。这个职位主要负责搜集、处理、分析和发布一个特定金融市场板块的数据,比如权益、固收、外汇、IPO或者并购。这一职位要求候选人对金融市场和各个资产类别有深入的理解和扎实的专业知识,并且具备一定的编程和数据处理技能,比如Python、VBA和SQL。

    不仅限于衍生金融工具定价、算法交易和风险管理,量化的方法与工具正在被日益广泛地应用在金融行业做数据驱动的决策制定,比如投资组合构建、信用评分、欺诈检验、反洗钱和智能投顾。我攻读风险管理与金融工程硕士学位课程的动机并不是成为一个quant或是一个专注衍生品定价交易的数学家,而是打算夯实一些业界常用的必备的量化技能,并且更深入地理解市场、金融工具以及各类业务和资产类别。除了必修课外,我打算在春学期修读“大数据金融”、“金融C++”、“Amplify交易”,在秋学期修读“C++计算金融”、“金融科技选讲”、“实践中的宏观经济与金融”。我还想旁听“国际金融”这门课,来帮助我了解外汇市场。我将会充分利用学校提供的优质的职业发展服务,积极申请伦敦各大机构的全职和暑期实习工作机会。这一详细的学习计划最终能否实现,取决于招生委员会是否给我这个机会来伦敦求学。

   我很自信我在数学和金融方面的学术背景能够使我在这个很量化的课程项目中取得成功。在过去两个学年里我取得了总平均71%的成绩,并且在所有量化课程中获得72%的均分,这满足了英国高等教育体系中一等荣誉学位的要求。我已经学了或是将要学习统计方法、概率理论、运筹学、数值分析、微分方程和图论。这些课程使我准备充分来学习帝国理工这个专业中的金融统计、随机微积分、计算金融和风险管理等课程。作为一个正在英国读本科的中国学生,我能为帝国理工学习社区做出的贡献是积极帮助来自中国大陆高校的中国学生尽快适应英国高等教育的风格。

    我的国际化经历和创新思维模式能够使帝国理工商学院受益,并且也和伦敦这座国际化大都市的精神和特征以及帝国理工商学院的愿景和使命相契合。我期待在今年九月在帝国理工结识一群高素质的同学。这一年将会是我体验这个精彩的世界的又一次机会。
