Dear Sir/Madam,

Application for the Position of Materials Science and Engineering Intern

I wish to be considered for an internship opportunity with your company. I hope that in considering my unique mix of technical skills and working experiences, the firm may see me as a suitable candidate for an internship. Enclosed is my resume for your perusal.             

I am currently a third year Materials Science and Engineering major with the National University of Singapore, specializing in nanostructured materials and nanotechnology. Through my course, I have developed a wide and dynamic range of transferable skills, such as perseverance and leadership, which allow me to work effectively and ethically under any stressful condition. My experience in handling state-of-the-art equipment such as the Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) and the Powder X-ray Diffractometer have provided me with immense technical handling skills that boost both my level of confidence and proficiency in my field of study.

My previous designation as a laboratory technician for Technochem Environmental Complex Pte Ltd has helped me develop a high degree of research independence on top of an acute attention to detail, in order to successfully execute various critical evaluations and analyses. These experiences have sharpened my skills in problem solving and technical competency, both of which I feel are vital qualities as a scientist and an engineer.

Your company attracts me for the myriad of opportunities offered within your training schemes. The chance to work with various engagement teams and managements is one which I have much to gain from. I strongly believe that as an intern, I will be able to acquire the breadth of opportunities and experiences I need to develop as an individual, at the same time make an immediate and direct contribution to your organization.

With passion and an articulated vision, mutual development can be fostered, and I personally would like to be a part of that process. I look forward to your favorable reply. Thank you for your time.


Yours faithfully,

Jeremy Koh
