Motivation letter MSC in Robotics

Thanks for Taking Time for reviewing this motivation letter in context, punctuation and grammar :

The legendary cosmologist carl sagan once said :”somewhere,something is waiting to be known”.based on this quote and my truthful belief that I need to know more , I’am writing this letter to express my avid interest in applying for the master’s program in Robotics & Computer engineering at the institute of technology,University of Tartu .Im from Morocco and in 2014 I took a Higher Diploma of Technology in Industrial Maintenance Engineering with honors from the High School of Technology of ***.after my graduation , I have been working as Electrical Maintenance Technician for one year in ** and two years as Arduino Developer Freelancer. Before I graduated from The High School of Technology of ** with a bachelor’s degree in Automation & building’s technical management in 2017 .

Nowadays, Robots are everywhere revolutioning every aspect of our life,from nano-rabots destroying cancer cells in our bodies to robots probes exploring space searching for life .in robotics you get to build intelligent machines capable of sensing,measuring & interacting with the world around them using an amalgam of various engineering fields ,that’s the strong reason that convinced me to choose robotics.

Throughout my academic carrer I came across a blend of engineering subjects which constitute the soul of robotics such as Physics ,Higher Mathematics Mechanical Engineering,Electrical Engineering,Analog Electronics,Digital Electronics,Programming,Computer Hardware,Automation, SCADA ,Signal Processing .in addition , my interest in Robotics has began back in 2012 ,during my first internship in LEONI Casablanca .I was astonished by the speed and accuracy of crimping and cutting simultaneously of wires done by the Automated Machine “KOMAX ALPHA “.as result of the driving force of love towards robotics I decided to build a robotic arm the year after as part of my final year project .

famously Known for life-changing inventions , Nikola Tesla (1856-1943) discovered also remote control he used radio waves to move robot-boat during the electric exhibition in 1898 in New York.therefore,Tesla wasn’t father of Electricity but also father of robotics ..The second most influencial person in the field of robotics I believe is the English computer pionner and artificial intelligence theorist alan Turing (1912-1954). Alan developed the concept of thinking machine through the “turning test “ in 1950 ,a method of inquiry for determining whether a computer is capable of thinking like human being .Thanks to his massive contributions ,today we have artificially intelligent robots able to perform even more complex tasks.

Last but not least ,the south African engineer,inventor ,and entrepreneur Ellon Musk .he’s undeniably the inventor of the moment.his revolutionary ideas have completely changed space travel and transportation .Ellon backed OpenAI non profit research lab in order to teach robots to learn like humans do.when he was asked about robots he said “in the future Robots will do everything better than us” .

Talking about robotics events that stuck in my memory ,In 12 November 2014, I witnessed live the breathtaking landing of European space agency robotic probe Philae on a comet ,after 12 years in space .I have been deeply influenced by the historical event that I became aware of how robots can help us to answer major scientific & philosophic issues . later on, in 15 March 2016 AlphaGO an english computer program defeated the world champion Lee Sedol at The ancient board game GO.this victory was a concrete evidence that machines can learn to solve the hardest problems. Another major event took place at Arabie saudite in October 2017.where a humanoid robot Sophia made by Hanson Projects became citizen of Arabie Saudite.although she wasn’t conscious but she showed high level of interaction with humans using machine learning .

It is well know that Estonia is leading the way in technology , it’s also a place where Innovation is highly appreciated and that’s what attracted me the most to apply to the Robotics & computer Engineering program to study in 1.2% of the top universities in the world .besides,Im much eager to learn new technologies ,in fact im already familiar with Topics such as industry 4.0,Internet of Things, Machine learning,Machine vision ,and very enthusiastic to advance my skills on them as they are parts of Robotics .

As Im passionate about innovation and finding solutions to the most pressing industrial challenges.Im willing to work as Robotics Systems Engineer after my graduation ,after reading the program’s curriculum I think that it will absolutely provide my with the necessary tools both theoretically & practically to succeed in my future job .

I have chosen this particular program to fulfill my dream in robotics , I hope one day I will be a Space robot Engineer as it was and it will be my big thing to achieve.
