help help help...letter of motivation

plaese help in writing this letter of motivation, is there any need to mention some personal information like hobbies, non professional facts ...etc

thanks in advanced for your help.

I am writing to you to apply for the Master’s Degree in Management of Information Systems.

During the 5 years of my undergraduate education; I studied electrical engineering with specialization in Computer engineering. The emphasis of my studies was understanding the fundamentals of computer engineering that govern modern technologies. And I also learned about other diverse topics such as communications, programming, and digital electronics.

During the 7 years of my professional life in the field of information technology as systems and networking engineer, I found that the management of the information systems and projects is the missed link, here in the part of world.

To further my career aspirations of becoming part of a senior management team, I want to obtain a Master's Degree in Engineering and Management of Information Systems. Having this knowledge will allow me to better understand management principles, and contribute in the transfer of knowledge and the modern management theories to my country. With all the uncertainty and changes in the world, political, economic, and technological, I believe that management must have a solid understanding, supported by a strong academic foundation, of how to guide companies through these challenging times.

Thanks a lot

You could briefly mention those if they help you sound like a good applicant. For example if you can use them to demonstrate your leadership qualities, determination etc etc.

It would also be a good idea to mention your future career goals and how this qualification would help you achieve them.
