As per my CV, I have been working on my thesis entitled, âAlgae To Energy: A Thorough Investigation Of Biogas Production And With Ultrasound Pretreatment Of Red Algae of The Baltic Sea To Eliminate Environmental Degradation And To Explore Endless Source Of Energyâ in order to obtain the degree MSc in Environmental Science from ***, expected by June 2008. Anaerobic digestion, biogas and GHG are my particular areas of interests and inspired me to conduct my research activities in a similar field. After finishing the first batch experiment to investigate biodegradation potential of algae, I am presently working on continuous stirred reactors with the homogenized algae, autoclaved and algae pretreated with ultrasound and four parallel batch experiments with same co-digested substrate and treated materials as used in lab-digesters. I found myself very interested in this field and possess good knowledge in the entire procedure, plan and monitoring, as well as excellent laboratory skills. Before beginning my thesis work, I conducted an investigation on GHGs emission and measurement from a landfill project where my entire work was highly appreciable.(appreciated?, noticed? lauded?)

Beside other knowledge on environmental issues, I have good computer skills and literature searching and sorting skills learned from highly skilled professionals at *** University Library. Moreover, my laboratory skills and achievements learned during studies for my Bachelor in Agriculture make me very suitable for the position.

After reading the advertisement, it seems to me that this is an appropriate position, one that I have been looking and waiting for. I am confindent that I am the suitable candidate for the position. I have considered the stipend, and nevertheless, would gladly consider the position, since the research theme fits my interests perfectly.

In summary, as the Department of Civil Engineering, *** has important research activities in these areas, I would like to have the opportunity to develop its PhD programme in this project. I am confident I have the skills, knowledge and competence required. Please donât hesitate to contact me or my enclosed referees for further queries, if you have any.

Thank you very much for considering my application and I look forward to hearing from you.

Internship Cover Letter Details

InViVe — Sun, 17 Feb 2008 15:32:22 GMT

Any help "fixing" the following cover letter, would be greatly appreciated. I plan to send it to a research institute in the US which has a few internship positions available for students worldwide. In their own words, the cover letter should include a statement of my specific research interests, contact details and relevant coursework and grades received. Having discussed it briefly with some of my professors i ended up with this:

"My contact details"

"Contact details of the institute's member responsible for the internship"

Date

Dear Dr. ***,

I am writing in response to your posting for the *** Internship Program. I am currently a final year Masterâs student in *** at the University of ***, and I would like to be considered for the internship position on the *** project. I am particularly interested in working on expanding the simulation capability currently available within *** whose âevolutionâ I have followed in the literature.

My academic background includes the following relevant graduate courses:

Computer Programming, a course referring to C++ programming â both object oriented and structured programming - in which I received a grade of 9 (on a scale from 0 to 10).
Advanced Software Engineering, a course on design patterns, the Single responsibility principle and refactorings (ongoing).
Advanced Artificial Intelligence, during which I was taught Prolog, Constraint Programming, Constraint Logic Programming (using the ECLiPSe platform), planning with constraints (including a project concerning mixed initiative temporal planning with constraints), and reasoning under uncertainty (MDPs, chapters 13 to 17 of the book "Artificial Intelligence, A modern approach" by Stuart Russell and Peter Norvig). I received a grade of 9.
Neural Networks and Evolutionary Algorithms, dealing with several neural network architectures as well as other machine learning approaches, including the first five chapters of the book "Pattern Recognition and Machine Learning" by Christopher M. Bishop (ongoing).

Other relevant courses from my undergraduate studies (also in ***) include:

Artificial intelligence, which covered the first twelve chapters of the AIMA textbook (including partial order planning). I received a grade of 10.
Object oriented programming, a course on Java programming and UML. I received a grade of 9.

This semester I will begin working on my Masterâs Thesis, the topic of which is "***. It involves simulating "...". In the future, I plan to pursue a Ph.D. in ***, possibly by extending my research in my diploma thesis.

It is my belief that I could contribute effectively as a member of your program, which in turn would allow me to continue to pursue my research interests and future academic career. I consider this internship an ideal opportunity to obtain hands-on experience. Also, it would greatly benefit me to collaborate with fellow interns and have as my mentor Mr. ***.

I enclose a recent curriculum vitae for your attention and I look forward to hearing from you.

Thank you for your consideration.

Sincerely,

"My name & surname"

My doubts are as to:

Whether there are any grammar or syntactical errors
Should the cover letter have information on where i found their program advertisement? For example "I am writing in response to your posting for the *** Internship Program, of which I learned through an email from the *** googlegroup."?
The part "I am particularly interested in working on expanding the simulation capability currently available within *** whose âevolutionâ I have followed in the literature." in the first paragraph originally was "I would wish to be considered for the intership position on the *** project, and if possible for the part of ***, of which I read and was particularly interested in, in the paper â***â which was presented in the *** Workshop on ***." Which version do you think is better?
If i should include the sentence 'Also, it would greatly benefit me to collaborate with fellow interns and have as my mentor Mr. ***." or maybe it sounds "fake" (although it is in fact true!)
In the original version of this cover letter, the last paragraph was
"Also, it would greatly benefit me to have as my mentor Mr. ***, whose career in the *** and *** I think of very highly, and collaborate with fellow interns, as until this time, I havenât had the opportunity to work in a multi-member research group. Finally, travelling and actually staying in the United States has always been one of my dreams, being an avid traveller, but unfortunately, I havenât been able to make this trip a reality due to its excessive cost." Was i right in replacing it?
Finally, should the courses' information also refer to the teacher who instructed me (especially since one of them has cooperated in the past with the internship's project mentor), or not?

Thank you in advance for any help given!

letter of motivation, help and suggestions wanted

Anonymous — Wed, 10 Jan 2007 20:17:13 GMT

Hi!
I'm applying for a volunteer work in few of the EVS projects (I don't know is it familiar to you - it's a kind of an exchange of students in purpose of learning a language and working on yourself by doing a job like an engagement in youth rights, or preparing a film festival or doing some cultural work, etc. - it's domaine of works is pretty various, but al of them require working with people) and I have to write a cover letter, but it has to be pretty general because I have to write only one letter wich will be used in all my applys. Also, people reading this kind of letter pretty much are students, young people, so I figured it would be better not to write so formal as usally. Or I'm I wrong?
I'd be very grateful if you'd give me any suggestions how to improve my letter writen below this text and if you could point out my gramatical mistakes, I'm sure there are a lot of them.
Thanks a lot, lots of kisses from Croatia!

Salut!

My name is ---, I'm a 22 years old student at 3rd year of french and philosophy at ---. When finding out of this kind of volunteering I immediately knew I want to be a part of it. With this letter I would like to apply for the participation as a volunteer in your EVS project and through it I'd like to bring you closer how deeply I would like to become a part of your team and why I think you'd make a great decision choosing me.
You're probably asking yourself why I'm so sure of myself and what is that what I can offer more than someone else? Well...

As I already mentioned, being a student of french language and it's literature and also being an admirer of it's country's great history and rich culture, I'm really eager to develop my language skills and to improve my speaking french whilst gaining valuable experience and knowledge. As well, I'd like to learn about other cultures and various people.

I started to learn french not before my first year of college so this kind of opportunity would mean a great deal for my professional as well for my personal improvement. I'm an highly motivated, hard-working, tolerante and dynamic individual with expressed comunicating and organisation skills. During my time as a student I gathered a big amount of experinece in working with people in wide range of jobs (being a promotor, hostese, waitresse) that I did as a member of the Student Service in my city. I also volunteered at animal shelter for two years (Noina arka) and I have participated in our Society of francophone students in Croatia for two years now. In year 2005. I went through a training curse to be an animator at seaside resorts.

Like you see, I have kept myself busy.

Well, doing all that I learned I enjoy working with people and that it fullfills me. And I'm really good at it. I easily adopt in any work enviroment and in working as a part of a group. Although neither an individual work that requires an initiative and responsable person with a sens of personal organisation doesn't represent any problem to me; I act equally good in both surroundings and I cope effectively with all kinds of demands put in front of me.

I'm a computer literate and I speak, read and use both english and french. But I also think that there's a lot more work in front of me to achieve a level of a perfectly spoken french. Passively I use slovenian and I also learned deaf-mute language for a year.

Privatly, I like sports and dancing. Depending of my free time and my mood I ride my bike, I swimm, I run. But for the past year I put myself mostly in ballet dancing lessons which I really enjoy. Also I adore to read. Everything. Wether(?) it's a daily or weekly press, all sorts of magazines, romans, Internet sites â from yellow pages to scientific articles, arts to love themes â I swallow it all in one breath. Any gatherings or activities of all kinds including people spending time together always will drow my attention. I'm a big filmophile and I enjoy music. And if you add a good cup of coffee with a fresh croissant accompanying it, plus my family and friends, with whom I share all my interests and free time, that's my winning choice.

I'm sure you have already got an idea of how much I'd like to come and become a player in your team, but all the same, I'll use one more opportunity to express how strongly I desire to volounteer in your EVS project and how I'm convicted I have a lot to contribute with my experience and personality as your team member. The changes and all the adjustements that I would be confronted with do not frighten me, moreover, they challenge me. All potential shortfalls that will occure I'm willing to compensate with my maximum effort and doing my best. I'm very ambitious, prepaired to learn and ready to adopt new skills. I would be very gratefull if you'd give me a chance to represent all my qualities and ambitions in person, working for you. As I already said, this opportunity means to me a lot and represents a big possibility in enriching myself as a person as well as developing myself in professional sense.

I thank you for your time spent reading this letter and I hope for a positive response. If you have any questions, please contact me through --- or my perssonal e-mail address ---

I look forward to hearing from you.

Best regards,

----
