1/2
Since I read on my second year of university "The World Is Flat"
(Thomas L. Friedman,
2005), which describes the example of how Wal-Mart logistics
system is organized, I
have become very interested in the logistics and the
organization of all the transport of
goods from the factories to end users. One of my goals is to be
able to organize a whole
transport system for a company, such as fleet of vehicles and
logistic system. This is
why I would really like to work in this domain.
Throughout my degree that I have done in Spain, I have had the
chance to take elective
courses most related to the world of transport. Therefore, I
have decided to go for a
career in these fields with subjects as Port Management or
Traffic and Regulation
Control.
Recently, I have accomplished my last internship in the Supply
Chain department of a
small to medium enterprise, which is located in the north of
England. During this time I
could carry out with a colleague the optimization of the
supplier database analysing the
different strengths and weakness points of the different
suppliers. Although it would
have been easier to get an opportunity in a company related to
civil engineering, which
is my degree, I rather preferred to get started in this field.
All this means that I am not
applying to this Master without any reason; I have been
searching for different Masters
related to the world of transport and Logistics all across
Europe. As a result, the Master
that you offer is the only one which includes courses that are
not only managerial in
Logistics but also more technical and related to transports from
an engineering point of
view. The high requirements needed in order to be graduated at
DTU are part of my
willingness to apply. This is mainly due to the fact that I am
always striving for
challenges.
Furthermore, I have always liked to be within an international
environment and I
strongly believe that it is a positive experience. This feeling
has been reinforced by the
experiences that I have had abroad, especially with an
Internship that I did in 2012 in
Tunisia. Over there I had the chance to work with people from
different nationalities,
but also different ethnicity and religions. I shared my
day to day life with native
peoples, I was also in contact with International students
who came to Tunisia with the
same goals as me: get experience in an international
environment, strength my
international leadership and improve my communication skills.
Another thing is that
during my Erasmus in Denmark I had the chance to work with
people from different
European nationalities as well. In this period I worked in an
Inter-disciplinary project
related to sustainable drainage, in cooperation with a company,
which was really
pleased with the final results due to the fact that we
analysed different parameters that
hadn’t been analysed by them before. In my last semester, I
worked with some people
who participated in the first project, extending this one and
writing a final thesis, based
on the same topic, sustainable drainage and their different
methods.
Finally, the time in Denmark has given me the chance to learn a
new language. I have
enjoyed learning Danish from the moment I started my semester
abroad, obtaining two
