CHARLES UNIVERSITY

Dear Admission Committee,

Pursuing a career in Economics and Finance has been my aspiration, driven by my strong analytical mindset, curiosity about global markets, and enthusiasm for problem-solving. I am particularly drawn to understanding the interplay of economic systems and financial markets, as well as their impact on both businesses and individuals. My passion lies in finding data-driven solutions to complex financial problems, a skill I have honed through my academic pursuits and extracurricular activities.

As someone who thrives on critical thinking and decision-making, I am fascinated by the dynamic nature of financial markets and their influence on the global economy. I am eager to explore how theories in economics and finance translate into practical applications that shape policies and strategies for sustainable growth. Additionally, my interest in cryptocurrency and stock analysis has strengthened my understanding of modern financial tools and investment strategies, which further fuels my ambition to excel in this field.

Beyond academics, my experiences as a basketball player and team captain for over seven years have instilled in me the values of leadership, teamwork, and resilience. Balancing sports with academics has taught me discipline and the ability to perform under pressure. These skills, I believe, are crucial in navigating the complexities of financial decision-making and economic forecasting.

My volunteer work, including organizing humanitarian aid after the 2023 earthquakes in Turkey and raising funds for wildfire relief in Australia, has shown me the profound impact of economics on societal well-being. These experiences have inspired me to pursue a career where I can contribute to sustainable economic development and create value for communities worldwide.

Charles University in Prague stands out to me as the ideal place to pursue my studies in Economics and Finance. The university’s reputation for academic excellence, its interdisciplinary approach, and its vibrant international environment are incredibly appealing. I am particularly impressed by the faculty’s focus on combining theoretical knowledge with real-world applications, which aligns perfectly with my career aspirations. Studying at Charles University would provide me with the opportunity to deepen my understanding of economic theories, financial principles, and global markets while honing the skills needed to thrive in a competitive and ever-evolving field.

With proficiency in tools like Excel and Python and fluency in English (B2) and German (B2), I am well-prepared to excel in an academically rigorous and internationally diverse environment. My passion for numbers, coupled with my drive to make meaningful contributions, ensures that I will thrive both academically and personally at Charles University.

Thank you for considering my application. I am excited about the prospect of joining Charles University in Prague and contributing to its dynamic academic community.

Sincerely,

Can Kahraman
