Dear Sir or Madam ,
I am writing this letter to express my interest in Erasmus Mundus Master Programme in Mathematical
Modelling in Engineering for the 2015 Winter intake. I am interested in engineering since when i was a child. I was playing with my grandfathers soldering machine to modify my toy cars. Furthermore , I was selected from my class to attend the Science Festival in secondary school. As I grow up, my interest in math have risen. The main reason for this is because I believe that everything in the world has a math in it .And knowing and understanding math makes me feel like i can understand the world better.
Currently I am studying Mechanical engineering at Middle East Technical University , which is the best engineering university in Turkey. Obviously, in mechanical engineering almost every subject involves high level of Math in it. Studying in METU let me explore both theoretical background and applications of engineering and the math inside them. Also in METU i was able to use English in academic manner since the lectures were all taught in English . I want to continue my education with this masters programme because , this with this masters programme I can understand more complex systems , financial systems in a mathematical manner.
Also , I would be able to improve myself , since it , I believe , would be a challenge for me.
I have always spend enough time for extra-curricular activities , I have participated in universities
Music Club and Rowing team .Both Music Club and Rowing Team have improved my social skills and team work. Furthermore as a extra-curricular activity , I love travelling. I have worked in a lifeguarding job in USA for 3 months which was called "Work & Travel" programme . I was very comfortable with working with international people there .Furthermore i enjoyed learning and
