Statement of Motivation for a BSL-aSSIST Dual Doctoral Degree Program
To ensure sustainability in a rapidly changing business environment, business professionals must also update themselves. Managers need to be ambidextrous, equipped with up-to-date business theories and practices. The BSL-aSSIST doctoral program meets both needs of international students with extensive experience in various fields. The program is especially attractive because it provides the latest business management theories and state-of-the-art real-world practices. I think that the program would be an excellent opportunity for professional students who seek to develop their careers as business managers. It will also be of great help to business practitioners pursuing an academic career either.
