I am having some serious trouble phrasing this sentence...

"I wish expand my analytical skills and the ability to think strategically – both for which this program at ABC University is well-known"

Can anyone please help me? I am in a loop here, trying to fit both, which and for in different positions, but none really work :-?

cheers

It's a bit clunky even with the correction. I would be inclined to split this into two sentences.

I want to expand my analytical skills and my ability to think strategically. The program at ABC University is well-known for facilitating both.
