please correct my MOTIVATION LETTER for POST MASTER


Dear Sir or Madam;

I desire to apply for the two year post-master program at the *** University, Netherlands for the fall term 2008. In the following letter I would like to present my reasons for choosing this program and to provide a general background about me.

First of all I would like to introduce myself. My name is *** and I am a Korean. I received a bachelor of Electronic Engineering degree from Seoul National University and a master of Computer Science Engineering degree in Korea National University of Korea in 2002 and in 2007, respectively.

However my major was Electronic engineering in my bachelor study, I have studied some lectures related on computer science. From that time, I was always interested in computer science more than electronics also I thought that computer science is more convenient for women more than electronics. So I decided to study my master degree in Computer Science.

During my master studies I participated on two international conferences and published one paper in the IJIPS journal which is the one of the IT journal of Korea. And also I was participant in the two student projects named “Power efficient change detection scheme”, “Thunder observation and analyzer program development”.

The main reason why I am applying this program is that I have heard many good things about this program from my husband and his plans for his future after he would finish the program. Also one of my friends already finished that program and now she is working in good company in Netherlands. So I searched for more information and decided to apply this program because this program would give me many things.

Also I have a flexible attitude and can work well in team or independently, which is so vital for this program. Besides, on this program I will have the chance to meet people from all over the world which will broaden my cultural awareness and will contribute to my flexibility and creativity. Studying and living in a different culture will help me to see the world from a completely different perspective.

Finally, I think *** university is an excellent place to start my career and the program seems like the perfect opportunity for me to meet other cultures, learn another language and experience European education system as well as gain more independence.

Please find enclosed my curriculum vitae, certificate and my degrees/ diplomas with marks, inquires, references as per the requirements of application. Kindly contact me if you require any further details or documents. I hope to hear from you in the near future.

Thank you for considering my application and your time.

Yours faithfully,

Hi, Welcome to the Forum. I don't have time to look at your writing in detail at the moment, but here is one quick comment. When I read I desire to apply for the two year post-master program, I actually read the rest of your letter while thinking 'He wants to completely change his field and work in a post-office'.

  • This is because one meaning of this term, at least in British English, is 'the manager of a post-office'.
  • Are you sure that 'post-master' is the term that is normally used for what you want to do?
