graduated with high grades from a five year bachelor’s degree in Electronic Engineering at the X University, CITY, COUNTRY. I would like to continue my post-graduate studies in a business field, in order to gain applied knowledge and experiences by academic research in your master’s program, because through this I find a very interesting way for applying all the technical knowledge I have acquired working in a technology company or in a personal business. [I can't work out what you mean here.  Could you make it two or three short sentences instead?]

I have worked for one year and a half and currently work in X, CITY, COUNTRY. I have entered in through a Regional Call for new bachelor's with excellent grades and human competences. [Hard to work out what this means.  Is it a job or an internship or work experience or something?  Perhaps: Following a regional campaign seeking new graduates with excellent grades and communication skills, I secured a job for X company.  I have been working for X in CITY, COUNTRY for the past year and a half.] As part of my work I have participated in projects to improve processes, CRM Systems and Operation and Management of Data and Multimedia Services. This experience has made me realize how important project management is; how it defines in some way the effectiveness of the Company, and more importantly in this kind of business how can it impact the client who finally consists the factor for making money.[I can't work out what you mean by this]

X is one of the most important Telco’s company [Telco is, I think, an abbreviation of telecoms company - I wouldn't repeat company.] in our country. Project management is one of the most important and determining factors in the success of a company, especially in this kind of business, because of the high competence [wrong word] and the revolutionary new technologies for communications and same reasons that force also to be strategic.[sorry, I don't get what you mean by this]

Although I was raised in CITY, COUNTRY, I had the opportunity of living for two years in the United States of America when I was I child, while my father completed a masters degree in Sanitary Engineering.  As a result, I learned the language of English in a natural way, and later when I came back to Colombia I listened to an English teaching program [studied English formally?].  I have very good communication skills even though I am not a native speaker.

I was on the National Team of Synchronized Swimming for six years, and was on the Regional Team for nine years. I was the Swimmers' President for two years and have practiced this sport for ten years.  I was a coach for one year and I am now  on the Regional panel of judges.

Thanks for the corrections, considering that I had a lot of errors, i re-writed a new version (I would  like to know if too long and if it shows enough motivation) :

----------------------

I am hereby applying for entrance for the X program at the X in 2007-2008, and also I am applying for an X Scholarship.

I graduated with excellent grades from a five year bachelor’s degree in Electronic Engineering at the X University, CITY, COUNTRY. Besides of the regular engineering courses, I have also attended business related classes like Project Evaluation, Administration, and Financial Accounting with very high performance in the different courses.

I feel passionate about engineering and it’s technical aspects, but I have noticed that in the different projects that I have taken a part of that there is an inherent need for coordination and control of it’s technical and administration aspects, that can only be achieved trough a very precise project management in order to have an optimal development thus assuring successful results.

In the future I would like to work in a management role, this way I could apply and combine the technical knowledge I have acquired trough my bachelor’s degree with the management knowledge that I would learn in the X program.

Following a regional campaign seeking new graduates with excellent grades and communication skills, I secured a job for X company in CITY, COUNTRY.  I been working there for the past year and a half. X is one of the most important Telecommunications group in our country.

As part of my work I have participated in projects to improve processes in the areas of Client Relations Management (CRM) systems, and operation and management of data and multimedia services. This experience has made me realize that strategic planning is one of the most important and determining factors in the success of a company; especially in the telecommunications sector because of the highly competitive market and the revolutionary and innovative technologies.

I had the opportunity of living for two years in the United States of America when I was I child while my father completed a masters degree in Sanitary Engineering.  As a result I learned english in a natural way and when I came back to Colombia I studied english formally at the X institute continuing the learning process that I began as a child. Besides I have studied german for two and a half years, french for one year and I have learned Spanish as my native language. 

Other of my interests are sports, I practiced synchronized swimming during ten years, in which six of them I was on the National Team and nine on the Regional one. I represented the swimmers in front of the Synchronized Swimming Club for two years and later coached a swimmers team for one year. Actually, I am on the Regional panel of judges. Thanks to this experience I became a disciplined and hard worker and also learned a lot about team work, communication and leadership. In addition during intensive training sessions I had to live in other cities for several months at a time since I was 13 years old, which has made me a very adaptable person.

I made a choice for X program, because the fact of being approved by the Erasmus Mundus Action ensures it’s high quality. Also I choose the program for the excellent reputation of each one of the universities of the consortium, the challenging coursework and the facilities are some of the motivation factors. I would like to learn about other cultures and having the chance to know three different ones over the program makes a great motivation. Besides is very attractive to obtain three internationally recognized degrees, one of each university. The opportunity of obtaining an X Scholarship encouraged me to apply to this professional and life enriching experience. 

I hope that I will have the opportunity to prove my abilities in the MSc program X and look forward to hearing from you in the near future regarding the state of admission.
 

Thank you for considering my application.

 
Sincerely,
