Halo,
My Name is Enrianto.HM, but you can call me Erik. I am from Indonesia and looking scholarship in Australia. would you like to help me please. you can call me in this number 085242059197.
I was graduated from LP3I Business College at Makassar Province in Indonesia
Best regards

Dear Sir/Madam;
I am Nandar Nwe Oo; I was born on 19.08.1978 in Ayeyarwaddy Division,
Myanmar. I was borned with seven months old and I have only 3lbs
weight. I am a physically handicapped person especially C.P. I have
suffered from right sided hemipareris due to neonatal jaundice. My
father is Director of Aung Shwe Pwint company .He was B.Ecom Degree
holder at University of Yangon . My mother was a B.Sc degree holder
majoring in Physics. I have one younger brother and he got B.E (
civil) and He is an Assistance Director in Department of Central
Training School. My younger brother is married but I am single.
Education
My high school student life was in Ayeyarwaddy and Yangon
Divisions in Myanmar. I passed the matriculation examination at Yangon
in 1996 with two distinctions. I continued my education at Dagon
University from 1999 to 2004 and at Yangon University from 2004 to
2006. I completed my B.Sc ( Hons:) majoring in Mathematics in 2004. I
continued my education at the same University and I got my M.Sc (
Engineering Mathematics ) degree in 2006.
Experience
Actually I am ambitious to get Ph.D degree at Yangon University.
But it is inconvenient for me as it is only possible for University
teachers. On the other side, it is very difficult to be a tutor or
demonstrator at University especially for person with disabilities
like me. Therefore I am working at family company as a supervisor and
executive member of NGO at Myanmar Physically Handicapped Association.
This is meant for getting some family income and waiting for
opportunity to continue my education. My present work is based on
construction and community based rehabilitation and development of
disable people in our country. You may see our association’s
activities on our website:
http://www.myanmarphysicallyhandicappedassociation,org .
Awards
I have never been applying for oversea training or awards as it
is very inconvenient for private civilian like me. On the other side I
was ignorant to seek some opportunities through internet websites. Now
I get the entrance from the University of Birmingham with Application
submitted of University ID no. : 1100827. On the other side I was
ignorant to seek some opportunities through internet websites to get
some sponsorship from appropriate group or association. Now I find out
this Scholarship Program and this is the first time to apply foreign
scholarship award.
Topic of research
Statistics:
I set up my mathematical models of processes and systems that are
affected by “chance”. In
Mathematical Statistics, I find out these models against the reality,
to determine whether they are
faithful and accurate enough for practical purpose. Finally, this
purpose is making conclusions about properties of the population.
according to those conclusions, we can use those data as based for
making predictions, decisions and actions, for instance, in whether
forecast or market analysis or traffic planning, in developing
economical plans, in buying raw materials or machines or equipment, in
methods of advertising and selling products, in taking action against
dangerous discuses, and so on. So I did my first approach in their
teams and then I continued samples
and their means. Secondly I tried to approach Statistical Methods with
points and interval
estimation of parameters and continue with hypothesis testing and
application, goodness to fit (test
for distribution functions), and some nonparametric tests. The last
one or my recently works are deals with pairs of measurements and
regression analysis, but I have not done well yet.
Lattices and Boolean Algebras
I also set up my mathematical models of processes and systems that are
affected by making
inroads into diverse mathematical disciplines and has already made its
presence felt in the fields of
Topology, Analysis, Algebra, Geometry, Probability and Logic. I
engaged in research is finding it a
useful tool in my respective fields. And I believe that Boolean
algebra is a mathematical foundation
of switching algebra and its application to computer is no secret. At
the period of my Master Degree, I studied Set Theory and Number Theory
at first, next the ordered sets and lattices, and then we discussed
modular and distributive lattices (which have played a significant
role in the development of this fields). Finally, I deal with the
results pertaining to Boolean algebras and applications especially to
switching algebras with an eye on simplification and design of
circuits. This is thee last one or my recently works and I have not
done well yet.
Applied Mathematics
Applied Mathematics Group – the main interests of the group are fluid
mechanics, mathematical
chemistry and reaction-diffusion systems and mathematical biology. In
fluid mechanics, we study
freesurfaceflows, bubble dynamics, biological fluid mechanics, moving
contact lines and
hydrodynamic stability. In the related areas of Mathematical Chemistry
and reaction diffusion systems there is research into cement
hydration, micelle formation, solid oxide fuel cells, chemical waves
and clock reactions. Theoretical & Computational Optimization Group –
the main focus of
the research activity of the group is on mathematical theory and
methods applicable to managerial
decision-making, particularly non-linear, discrete, and multi-criteria
optimization. Research is
typically a mixture of theoretical investigation and practical
application or industrial collaboration.
Statistics Group – The main interests of this group are multivariate
nonparametric statistics, nonparametric smoothing and wavelet based
methods, time series analysis, mutual information,
statistical computing, applications in bioinformatics and
neuroscience. The group also has
strong inter-disciplinary research links with other internationally
acclaimed research groups.
Pure Mathematics
The Pure Mathematics group contributes to research in various parts of
algebra, model theory,
combinatorics, set theory and analysis. Birmingham is recognized,
nationally and internationally, as
one of the leading centers in the European Union for research in group
theory, including pro-finite
groups, groups acting on trees, construction and generation of
sporadic simple groups, and
representations of groups.
So I want to not only attend this M.Sc. (Taught) Mathematical Finance
Class also get a scholarship award to get my serious ambition.
Please give me some advice for that if you can and which
qualifications I have needed to get the scholarship award and attended
this training.
Please contact me freely if you have any question.
I am looking forward to hear the good news from you.
Yours sincerely:
Nandar Nwe Oo
Dear Sir or Madam,
Here below, I have attached my CV and application for the scholarship.
I hope you will consider me.
Thank you, in advance.
Yours Faithfully,
Yonas.
Dear Sir or Madam,
My name is Yonas. I’m 24 years old, young Ethiopian man. I was graduated with first degree in ENGLISH language from Jimma University, one of the biggest universities in Ethiopia. I work currently under UNHCR (the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees) helping in interpretation and translation services for refugees. There are tens of thousands Eritrean refugees in few different camps in Ethiopia.
My mission, however, is limited to two camps namely Shimelba and Mai Ayni camps, the biggest camps for Eritrean refugees residing in Ethiopia. Besides this, I go to the screening center for Eritrean asylum seekers called Endabaguna.
So, my over all tasks is I go to those places and help in connecting (in communication) the interviewers (experts) and the refugees.
To do this big responsibility, I always travel by car over 180 km every week (to and forth distance), as my base is Shire, the sub-office for my organization.
Before I joined UNHCR, I used to be a school teacher. I used to teach English language in secondary school and colleges. I did this job for almost two years. Except for ordinary English (that includes grammatical structure); I taught some English courses for diploma level learners. E.g. I taught “language teaching” course, “English in use I, II, III and IV”, “Class room language” and other courses.
Since my joining UNHCR, I have done my best in helping refugees in being a bridge between them and the experts/ officers.
I have been doing this humanitarian profession since May, 2008, i.e. for one year and nine months now.
In those times, I’ve developed not only my profession but also I’ve gained a lot of knowledge in giving a real protection to refugees. I’ve learnt all about resettlement issues. In general, I knew all about delivering assistances for refugees.
So, dear Sir or Madam, I’ve always a keen interest to help and to give sympathy for human beings in general and refugees, in particular.
I always enjoy helping refugees as they are the ones who fled their own country for the seek of asylum. So, I think I should be given that opportunity (your scholarship opportunity) as I always work for refugees.
Moreover, I’ve an enthusiasm in knowing international law (especially refugee law). I would like to know more about it theoretically though I‘ve seen it in practice. I would like to know more about refugee laws so that I can again put it into action i.e. helping refugee as before.
My future plan prospects are that getting some knowledge about international law with the help of you and use it to help refugees around the world. So, when I mean that I would help refugees; I would give all necessary protection to them, I would work along with concerned international organizations so as to bring support for refugees, I would strive all that I can to bring improvement in the lives of refugees. I.e. to get as durable solution to them besides the daily protections given regularly.
Dear Sir or Madam, I hope so far you‘ve understood all about my interest and why I’m telling you that I need your scholarship badly.
To sum up, if you give me that opportunity I really will continue helping refugees in all my possible capacity I can. I would care and protect refugees around the world.
I would go wherever to help and to give humanitarian assistance for refugees.
“Refugees should be protected” that is my motto.
I would like to thank you for giving due attention for my application hopefully you’ll accept and give the opportunity. I’m waiting so eagerly.
Hoping to get a prompt reply from you!
Thank you in advance.
With best regards,
Yours faithfully,
Yonas.
