Dear professor / madam
I’m G. Marina Sandarenu Perera, Studying in Sri Lankan university (Sabaragamuwa university of Sri Lanka). It is one of the reputed government universities in Sri Lanka. I’m studying as a final year student belongs to Department of Food Science and Technology, Faculty of Applied Sciences. I’m following a four year (Special) Food Science and Technology degree program. I will be completing my degree program in December this year.
Nowadays I’m studying successfully for the finals. I have already obtained a second class upper and I’ve scored pretty good marks for all previous three years. I have become the batch top during 2nd year 1st semester and 3rd year 2nd semester (GPA 4.0). I have the assurance that I will be able to capture a first class position at the end of my degree. I’ve successfully done my 4th year 1st semester mini project (develop a veggie tofu burger by enhancing nutritional value and flavor) and the project report is being attended to these days. I wish to do my final year research project in Unilever Ceylon Ltd Company Sri Lanka. It will be commenced in early September this year.
I strongly need to pursue my education up to doctoral level. But the only problem that I face at the moment is that I do not have sufficient money to pursue my education since my father and mother both are retired government servants. I would be very much grateful to you if you would kindly assist me to do my Msc or PhD in abroad.
I would like to join your on going researches and give my fullest co-operation to complete them successfully. . Could you please grant me an assistantship in any research projects under taken by you? And I have to say that I will be able to immediately join in your research work just after my completion of the degree in this year.
I hope a favorable reply from you in due course.
Thanking you!
Yours sincerely,
G. Marina. S. Perera.
