Subject: Motivation letter for a Master program in Structural Biology

Dear Sirs, Madams,

I was very glad when I saw this particular opportunity to apply for a Master program
in Structural Biology and with this letter I would like to express my strong motivation
for this master course. I am a graduate of the University Malaysia Sarawak
(UNIMAS), holding BSc degree in Resource Biotechnology.

I have graduated with honours at University Malaysia Sarawak (UNIMAS) where I

was able to get a solid knowledge in the field. At the moment I am doing my
internship in Agrobiotechnology Institute Malaysia where I have the opportunity to
gain in-depth knowledge about growth of seaweed micropropagules which is
contrary from the topic of my Bachelor thesis (Transformation of plant: molecular
biology). Thanks to this particular experience I was able to perceive the complexity of
this field, and to realize that I would like to develop my career in this area. Besides
application of molecular biology, I hold especial interest in the Structural Biology
and I would like to do specialization in this particular area.

After careful overview of the master program you are offering at your University, I
believe that curricula fully suits my intentions, and therefore I would like to get an
opportunity to attend this program.

As I understand, this programme is very competitive, attracting highly motivated

students, but I am convinced that my good record at my previous University and
professional experience give me a strong recommendation for a place at it.
Therefore I would be honoured if you decide to accept my candidateship for Master
studies. In the same time I am aware of possible challenges and high investments of
effort I will have to place in order to successfully complete this course.

Once again I am grateful for considering my application and I look forward to a

favourable reply.

Sincerely,
