Please correct my Motivation letter with your kind heart as soon as possible for which I shall be grateful to you. my mail id <removed by mod.>

MOTIVATION LETTER

I have pursued post graduation in Biotechnology from Osmania University in city, Hyderabad. During my studies, I was always a curious and research active student because I knew that to pursue a scientific career, one most begin early. I got tremendous opportunities in various Biotechnology companies. I have been recognized by many people and lauded for my Biotechnology knowledge. Moreover, I enjoy intellectual interactions with PhD scholars, having many friends, and am trained to solve problems. Consistently, my peers have placed me in a leadership position, and I have reputation for doing works very well beyond what is expected. Still I feel a vacuum (seems out of place or is it just me?). To my knowledge, I have made the correct decision in not taking a job right now, because I know that I have no choice if I am to pursue my long term goal and my childhood dream: to teach and publish research. By pursuing a doctoral degree, I will have the priceless opportunity to realize my dream.

Learning gives me a sense of accomplishment and a world of satisfaction. The more I learn, the more fulfilled I feel. I do not learn solely to apply my knowledge in a practical setting; instead it is the quest for knowledge and challenge of learning that motivates me. After 5 years of exploration in this magnetic biological world, I am convinced that I have made the right choice: I am more than eager to step into the coming, post-genomic" era to decode life in three dimensions at the atomic and molecular level.

Perhaps most importantly, joining in companies will have less contribution in line with my long-term career objective of teaching, conducting research, and producing research publications that would add value and contribute to my field of specialization. I am driven more by my dreams rather than money and the prestige of an excellent career. I also hope to contribute to society; as a professor by disseminating my knowledge. An inspired teacher can bring out talents, encourage innovation, and nurture a new generation of scientists and philosophers. I always want to inspire others in the teaching process in addition to conveying knowledge of the curriculum.

Excited by the idea of becoming a scientist since I was a child, my interests in pursuing graduate studies intensified during my undergraduate education and my basic research. Having a thirst for Biology, I pursued my graduation in Biotechnology in prestigious S.M.D. College, affiliated to Sri Venkateshwara University. With Biotechnology background, I excelled in my graduate studies and stood as top scorer. The core subject in my post graduation became very interesting in the hands of experienced faculties, and I am a 3-time winner of No.1 position for the past four semesters. These years of education have been an enriching experience and I am determined to maintain the high levels of excellence throughout my career. A research career in bacterial genetics is my thirst. Being in the campus hostel, I dedicated my extra time (during holidays) in the department laboratories and in CPMB (Centre for Plant Molecular Biology) to improve my experimental skills. In my junior year, I was selected by Professor K.Prabhakar Rao to work in his project along with PhD scholars. I mastered several biochemical and molecular biology techniques: DNA isolation and purification from plant and E.coli, protein separation and purification, PCR amplification, southern blot and chromatography.This experience inculcated me to be a responsible person and eventually boosted my confidence. It also taught me that the basis for good work is self reliance and very importantly the time management. My work involved organizing various events, which gave me the opportunity to work and interact with various kinds of people. This was a distinctively gratifying experience from me, which I feel would stand in good stead in the future, especially in lieu of my research experience.

The core subject Biotechnology inspired me a lot and involved myself in many self-help initiatives such as paper and poster presentations in various state level seminars. Besides this, I have even participated and attended various national level symposiums. Realizing the greater importance of Bioprocess work in Biotech industries, as a partial fulfillment of my post graduation, I worked on Xylitol production and its optimization, at Indian Institute of Chemical Technology (IICT), a national research institute. I was lucky to get a chance of doing some of my Molecular biology and Medical biotechnology practicalâs in CCMB (Centre for Cellular and Molecular Biology). Some of the credits in my theory part have also been dealt by CCMB scientists. CCMB is one among the many great research institutes recognized by UNESCO for its excellence in the field of Molecular biology research. With their guidance, I have become expert at cloning, protein expression, and at crystallographic work. I feel well prepared for the further challenging studies and research on very different topics, as well as on the topics I am familiar with.

To fulfill my aspirations, I deem it necessary to seek a PhD degree from the Department of Medical Microbiology at the University of Antwerp. I believe that your education will broaden my knowledge horizon, expose me to distinguished professors and their original concepts and creative teaching. I will also learn advanced theories in your research and sophisticated experimental skills. Thus I believe that my serious intention for study, my research experience in laboratories and academic background in various areas of Biotechnology, will be more beneficial for my research work in your reputed university.

Clive, I still don't understand why so many people call what I think is cover letter a motivation letter. What do you understand of motivation letter? It sounds like a written statement of a motivation talk, which is difficult to do without gestures and facial expressions.

Re: Shall I write my name and address at the top right side of my Motivation Letter..?

Hi Tamguatlay,

I am not Nona, and you probably won't trust me because I'm not a native speaker of English. I only wanted to share my experience, which can add something to the topic.

As an ESL student of BrE, I was taught to end a letter with "Your faithfully" when it addresses an unknown addressee (i.e., when it begins with "Dear Sir or Madam") and with "Yours sincerely" when you know his/her name (i.e., the letter begins with "Dear Mr/Ms/Miss [+surname]").

However, during my year in the UK, I saw the expression "Your faithfully" only twice, in two letters written by members of my University staff. Funnily enough, the first one began with "To whom it may concern" (another extremely rare expression ) and the second with "Miss [+ my surname]", two opening formulae I was taught NOT to use, when having classes ... none of them actually began with "Dear Sir or Madam"! Both the letters I mentioned (I've still got them) come from a University, so I'm obviously not talking about illiterate writers.

Another thing I can say is that my British teacher on the one hand strongly advised us to close formal letters in our CAE and CPE exams with "Yours faithfully" or "Yours sincerely" (depending on the circumstances) because those were the expression the examiners were looking for. On the other hand, he also warned us that these day most people, also in the UK, will close those letters with "Sincerely", "Regards", "Kind regards".

If my experience is anything to go by, what we learn sometimes can differ from what is actually done nowadays, just as Clive said.

Urgent..help with letter of motivation

Taida — Fri, 28 Dec 2007 08:39:51 GMT

Please can you check my motivation letter i have to finish it in next few days...
Thank you in advance

Please accept this letter as an expression of my strong interest to enter the Masters program in the field of information systems.

My aim is to work and conduct research within the Information Technology industry. I would therefore like to gain a deeper theoretical knowledge in Information Systems and Computer Science. I am passionate about informatics and information technologies, following technological developments and seeing their implications. A master's degree will give me the up-to-date tools and knowledge to be competitive and competent.

In June 2007 I will graduate from the Sarajevo School of Science and Technology (SSST), first private, English speaking university in Bosnia and Herzegovina, majoring in Information Systems. I will receive a dual degree from the University of Buckingham in the United Kingdom and SSST.

While pursuing my degree I have worked on many group projects related to IS. Some of them are design and implementation of database for art gallery (SQL), creating computer animations (Maya), conducting a data mining project using a data mining software tool (Weka), implementation of online book store(PHP, HTML). These projects, as well as all other, were strictly limited in time, with tight deadlines. However I have showed the ability to work under pressure and produce satisfying results.

I conducted my student practice on development of dynamic web pages within âDjikic Software Developmentâ company. I was working with scripting engine and CGI program WhizBase. Further on, I am now working on the graduation project under supervision of Prof. Amer Kadic and in cooperation with MIM corporation. The project consists of design and implementation of order management system which will be built after an extensive research on major order management systems, as well as on the specific requests made and compiled by the customers and IT personnel. Technology involved is substantial Oracle SQL programming, some Oracle PL/SQL programming and advanced Cold Fusion web programming.

Both my academic and work experience have prepared me well for a career in Information Systems. I am a motivated and ambitious person, and I like to accomplish tasks as thoroughly and effectively as possible. I am wiling to adjust to a new culture and to overcome obstacles.

Thank you in advance for taking the time to consider my application. I look forward to hearing from you soon. For any additional information please do not hesitate to contact me.

Sincerely,

urgently need advice on my motivation letter!

Hi,

I hope someone will read through this and give me comments...i am confident with my spellings and grammar (except, I am not sure whether subjects (eg. Molecular Genetics) are capitalized or written in small letters) but its more about the content. Does this include everything required in a motivation letter? Do I sound motivated and qualified? Do I make a positive impression? This letter is really important for me.. I would be happy about any comments! Thank you!

Dear Dr ***,

Herewith I would like to apply for the Prestige Master's Program Cancer Genomics and Developmental Biology at *** University starting in September 2007. I am a forth year student at the *** University. Currently I am working on my final thesis to obtain the BSc degree in Life Sciences. I will graduate in August 2007 and I would like to continue my studies focused on Molecular Genetics and pursue the MSc and PhD degrees.

I first became interested in the field of Molecular Genetics from my theoretical classes for Human Molecular Genetics and my project work â¦ during the 2^nd and 3^rd years at the university. Through my internship at the biomedical genetics department, I confirmed my belief that this is the topic I want to study and I want to focus on. With the newest developments and advances in technologies, data about the human genome are mounting. We are provided with powerful tools to study the role that genetic factors play in complex diseases such as cancer. I believe that genome-based research will enable us to develop more effective diagnostic tools and lead to the advancement in adoption of personalized medicine, and it is my future goal to make a contribution to this development.

Given my interest and experience in the field of Molecular Genetics, I am eager to deepen my knowledge and to specialize in Cancer Genetics, and furthermore to widen my knowledge in cellular mechanisms involved in cancer development. The MSc program offered at your university gives me the opportunity to widen my view in both, fundamental and disease-oriented aspects of Biomedical Genetics. This study program particularly attracts me owing to its international environment. I have been studying in an international class during my BSc program, which I enjoyed very much. However, I experienced that working in an international environment is not the easiest when it comes to team work. Working in a multicultural study group gives me the opportunity to further challenge myself in social aspects which I think will be of great importance for the future career of a scientist in this field.

Besides theoretical knowledge, I have learned and applied various laboratory techniques such as PCR-based methods, expression cloning, cell and tissue culture and array-CGH during my study at the university as well as during my internships. I am acquainted with the principles of several other laboratory techniques and I am confident in my practical skills. Furthermore, I have experiences working in project groups in which I learned to work as part of a team to solve problems through co-operation.

Thank you for taking the time to consider my application for the Masters program at your university. I hope that you will be persuaded of my potential to perform well on this program. I can be available for an interview at any time and look forward to hearing from you.

Yours sincerely,

***

effect or influence or...?

Anonymous — Tue, 06 Feb 2007 12:56:45 GMT

Dear Teachers,

This is a part of my motivation letter for an internship:

(â¦) In the past, I studied effects of growth and training on lipids and trace elements metabolism in horses. Lately, I completed a research investigating the influence of training on the energy metabolism of equine erythrocyte and its antioxidant system. (â¦)

I didnât want to repeat the word âeffectâ in my second sentence so I was trying to find other one which has the same or nearly the same meaning. Thus, I use the word âinfluenceâ. However somebody told me that: âIt seems that your use of influence in a research context is inappropriate as the word influence signals a bit of bias towards a positive out come of your research.â I would like to know your opinion. Is it really wrong to use the expression âinfluenceâ? Maybe there is other one more appropriate or it is better to repeat the âeffectâ then use the âinfluenceâ? Please, could you give me any ideas/advices?

Thank you very much in advance for any help.

yet another Letter of Motivation to be ispected under the magnifying glass

Zargon — Fri, 12 Jan 2007 18:31:29 GMT

Dear Friends,
I desperately need some help on my Motivation Letter, as I haven`t spoken/written a word in English since I started learning German and that`s years now...
I just want to underline how important this letter for my study is, since I am obligated to have a foreign semester in order to finish my bachelor degree.

I`m a bit unsure about the letter. I find it huge, nevertheless I just don`t know what I could drop. Secondly there are too much iterations and some expressions (all in italics) for which I can`t find a solution.
So you are my last hope... here it is :

Dear Sir or Madam,

I am writing to apply as an exchange student for the Communication Design Program at the School of Architecture and Design for the fall semester 2008. I am a Bulgarian student attending my third semester of "Digital Media" studies at the University of Applied Science in Bremen, Germany. Since I would like to devote my life to improving intercultural communication by means of interactive art and media, I strongly believe that the experience of studying abroad will help me to further develop myself and my knowledge.

My flair for arts is by blood. I grew up in my motherâs atelier, who is an artist herself, getting to know all different kinds of art. During my high school years, I supported my mother with developing trademarks for different companies. My task was the technical realization on computer, thus I could easily learn the fundamentals of conventional and professional software.

A decisive step for my further evolution was the year I spent as an exchange student in the eleventh grade in Germany. During this year I took part in diverse seminars organized by YFU (Youth For Understanding), which main goal was to make communication between cultures easier. The most important seminar I took part in was "Communication and Media", which was held two weeks in Berlin. I visited some of the biggest news agencies and print houses and took actively part in the working process of printing a magazine issue. This experience of communicating with people from different cultures bent with the media impressions I made, clearly pointed out my future way.

After graduating high school I was self-dependent enough to carry out my studies in a foreign country. Considering my affinity to arts and languages I applied for "Digital Media", because it combines both design and media competence. I experienced my first year as a great inspiration. In the first and second term we learnt the fundamentals of design and computer science by means of theoretical and practical exercises. Courses like "Theory of Media" and "Media Engineering" have put the basis of understanding what actually media is.
As I consider myself more as an art student I have focused on lectures at the University of Applied Arts in the current third semester. I have enrolled in a bachelor-project for the Syne-Institute (part of this university), which ends in summer 2008. We have an assignment to build up a new identity of a local Radio and TV sender. I am really enjoying the process of bringing up a new image of a company: briefing, analyzing, developing and presenting ideas for a real client.

Working on various projects, reading and holding out presentations, made me realize how essential media and digital technology nowadays are. I am permanently seeking challenges and try to find a way not just to be a part of this modern world, but actively change it. I have a clear vision for what I want to achieve through my study - I want to be able to create innovative, interactive and entertaining systems for the different walks of life. I am confident in my personality and my skills, but I recognized that my knowledge in some areas is limited. I therefore have chosen your program, because it suits my interests and needs most.

I have carefully read the descriptions of your courses and since I am attracted from the topic of design and communication, I have found the following highly interesting: âDesign, Media and Cultureâ, âCommunication and Interactionâ, âProduction Process of Communication Designâ and âCombining Mediaâ. I would like to visit these courses, because they will enrich my knowledge and help me put it to a higher standard. It would be a great pleasure for me to study in Thailand, not only because of the course variety. I am eager to meet such a distant culture and take the best of the time I will spend there.

I hope you consider my application and can regard me as a favorable candidate to this program.

Yours faithfully,
Ivan Yanev

There`s another thing. I have to upload the letter by Sunday evening, so I`m pretty much out of time.
I thank you in advance for your time and nervs.

HEREWITH MY SECOND DRAFT OF MOTIVATION LETTER, COULD EVERYONE READ IT AND GIVE ME ADVICE? THANK A LOT FOR YOUR ATTENTION

MOTIVATION STATEMENT

Dear Madam/Sir,

My name is Rusmana. With this letter I would like to introduce my candidature as a staff of Ministry of Marine Affairs and Fisheries (MMAF) Republic of Indonesia, who is applying for the LLM Program at the University of Erasmus.

Since I was still in Senior High School I had had in ideal to become an international law expert, especially in the field of the law of the sea. In my spare time I often spent my time reading books about international law and law of the sea which I borrowed from the school library. What I dreamed about finally came true when I was accepted at the Faculty of Law of the University of Padjadjaran, Bandung, Indonesia. I took up the Department of International Law and was graduated in 2000. During my study, I took several subjects related to the international law such as diplomatic and consular law, international treaty law, international organization law, the law of regional organization, air and space law, international settlement of dispute law, international law of the sea. I was also active attending institutional research, seminar and workshop regarding issue of international law both organized by the faculty or other institutions.

Currently I have been working with the Legal and Organization Bureau of MMAF. For three (3) years I have been working in such organization, I was really enjoying the field of my work. I got a chance to apply my knowledge and skill, which I learned during my study. As a staff I also obtained a great deal of experiences in assisting setting up legal rules, analyzing cases, rendering legal consultation, drawing up national ocean policy, establishing international cooperation, and developing both national and international law of the sea. Nevertheless, as an individual I am fully aware that the challenge ahead is keeping on the increase, so that everyone is demanded to keep on studying, developing itself, and searching new experiences. Those are the things that outlay my confidence and motivation to continue my education abroad.

My choice to take up the program of public international law is based on the considerations that such program is the most relevant to the field of my work, which is largely related to the aspects of international law. Based on the experience in my work, the issues in the field of law of the sea is as if Indonesia is limited in its involvement in both regional and international fisheries organizations, a great number of international conventions which have not been ratified or even fully implemented in the national law system, unsettled country border in the sea with some neighboring countries, constitute part of the issues that need expertise and experience in the adequate international field of law.

In this case I am highly aware of the superb reputation of your school, and my conversation with several of your alumni have served to deepen my interest in attending your school. I am confident that, in addition to your excellent faculty, the ability of professional teachers, and the support of facilities and very adequate literature in international law have placed your institution as a most promising choice to me to deepen such issue. Moreover, I do have come to recognize that a deep and solid education provided by your programme is required for me to pursue my career in international law area and to have a critical understanding of the problems that my country is facing and their solutions.

I firmly believe that I will be able to implement my knowledge and experiences that I acquired as long as I study in Eramus University to support and give contributions to bureau and ministry in order to develop legal issues, regulations policies, and international cooperation. I am certain that I have a great career in the field of international law, and let us say five to ten years afterwards, I will certainly have more strategic role and responsibilities as a decision maker in formulating law and policy of Indonesian marine and fishery development.

I sincerely hope that from my above-mentioned motivation expression, I will be accepted as an applicant and a beneficiary of the University of Erasmus to study the Public International Law Program in the 2006 â 2007 academic years. I am looking forward to having a feedback or response from you.

Sincerely yours,

Rusmana

Here is what I can whip in a few minutes time. Probably you may want to mix what you feel with what I could suggest

American Business School, Paris - My long cherished dream

If words could contain the excitement effulging in my heart at prospect of writing for my long cherished dream, if the metaphors of language could express the earnestness I feel gripped with, if my resolute determination to find myself the best studies in management be morphed into literary expression, I could only write - I am morbidly facinated by, absolutely galvanized at, and resolutely determinate to give myself the chance of lifetime, of best academics, of an international career, of American Business School in Paris.

Paris has been the center of cultural and social revolution since centuries, it has been the the forerunner at shaping the fashion of future, and it has been the alma mater of european emancipation. It brings the deja vu, that all great things must have had a french origin and it has lived upto its name by fondling in its the core the first english speaking business school in france.

Education in business and management is no more a secluded activity of perusing scores of tomes and be magically adequated with all the skills of conducting yourself in business ambience. In my opinion, training in business is like training into way of life, of appreciating the international symbiosis it generates, of understanding the nonchalance of different cultures, of recognizing the subtelities of human interactions. ABS is quite apt at providing very fulfillingly each of the aspects of a perfect business education - its international community of students would provide the right pathos that need to be imbued in business education, its excellent standard of education modelled after the reveled american education system would equip me with best artifices of knowledge and would also be a fulfillment of a dream, I had seen long enough to be inseperable from me - To nurture myself into a wholesome, passionate and empathetic business professinal.

In a way joining ABS is synonymous with living upto my dream, for ABS is the means to achive the ends I do desperately envisaged.

Thanks,

Mohan <Your Name>
