Writing Motivation letter

I wish to convey my motivation for a Masters programme in Business Administration offered by the German Federal Ministry of Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) under the technical assistant project for young Syrians and Jordanians. With a BSc. in Dental technology (Dental laboratory option) from my undergraduate, I wish then to focus on Business Administration. I am specifically fascinated in the integration of management, finances, accounting, information systems, organizational behavior, marketing, leadership, economics, ethics, and security courses in the MBA programme. My dental laboratory projects have borrowed heavily from some of these courses such as health care marketing, healthcare funding, health economics and evaluation, health policy analysis, introduction to health management, proposal development for health care leaders and other MBA course critical to dental laboratory health care.

A masters degree in business administration would help me contribute to addressing the humanitarian crisis facing Syrian refugees and their Jordanian hosts. The Syrian refugee problem is currently the worst humanitarian crisis in the world. My dental technology and dental laboratory undergraduate knowledge have stirred my thought about the suffering of the Syrian refugees and their Jordanian host. The cosmetic treatment that is currently being applied to the Syrian crisis would not solve the humanitarian problem and economic burden caused by the refugees. Short-term solutions such as relief aid to Syrian refugees are similarly comparable to treatment of a tooth ache with a pain killer, which only temporary stops the pain. Like a tooth ache, the Syrian crisis requires a permanent solution that would permanently resolve the crisis one and for all. Such a long-term solution to the Syrian crisis is similarly comparable to the removal of an aching tooth, which provides a lasting solution to the pain. However, long-term solutions for the humanitarian problems and economic burden caused by the Syrian crisis do not necessarily require diplomatic or coercive interventions to end the crisis. A diplomatic or coercive solution to the crisis has persistently eluded supranational bodies such as the United Nations Security Council, which are entrusted with maintenance of international security and peace. But, despite the failure of such supranational bodies to settle the international security and peace concerns in Syria, the Syrians cannot be left to solve problems on their own. A masters degree in Business Administration provides alternative means of addressing the humanitarian problem and economic burden caused by the Syrian crisis. Such alternative solutions include application of professional courses such as strategic public relation management, crisis management and communication, sustainability and corporate social responsibility, ethics and professional practice in finance amongst other MBA courses.

Firstly, crisis management and communication topics and simulations can be exploited in the synthesis of a hypothetical understanding of all the aspects of the Syrian crisis. Such aspects include the basis of the crisis in terms of the socio-economic and political pressure, the complex escalation of the conflict within and outside Syria. MBA crisis management and communications model can also form the basis for the management of humanitarian problem and economic burden caused by the crisis. Such management topics include management of media and issues, controlling activists and other interest parties.

Secondly, MBA strategic public relations management course is particularly critical in promoting the public relation image for the humanitarian organizations involved in the Syrian crisis for a sustainable funding from the global community. A poor public relation image of a humanitarian organization would worsen the plight of the Syrian refugee who would pay for the sins their humanitarian organizations. The impact of a poor public relation image on a humanitarian aid organization is similar to the plight of innocent citizens who are adversely affected by economic sanctions to a state.

Thirdly, sustainability and corporate social responsibility course would impact my knowledge on the moral responsibility of business management leaders to the welfare of the society at large. CSR would hence help me understand and educate others on the moral responsibility of well-off Jordanians to take care of their less fortunate Syrian brothers. In a couple of years, I am looking forward to engaging my professional training and experience in MBA to import business administration leadership styles to the management of humanitarian crisis and economic burden caused by the Syrian crisis. For instance, your MBA topic on facilitative leadership may provide a novelty solution for promoting trust amongst Jordanian and Syrian refugees. Facilitative leadership may also address mistrust between Jordanian citizens and foreigners, which could be attributed to tension created by a traditional command and control leadership style. MBA courses in economic, finances and accounting could also help me in spearheading a holistic policy decision-making process that addresses the competing needs of Jordanians and foreigners.

To the best of my knowledge, your Masters programme in business administration is highly competitive, and attracts excellent students, but I am certain that my excellent academic credentials and passion for the programme presents me as the ideal candidate for the course. It would be my greatest pleasure if you consider my placement to Masters in business administration at a Jordanian university. Remove the information about "toothache and pain." Just maintain the formal writing and make it simple
