 MOTIVATION LETTER

I would like to apply for internships in your Institute starting earlierly. Currently, I am working
as a junior research fellow in Indo-French project at Kumaraguru College of technology, India.
My main fields of study in both bachelor and post graduation are microbiology, biochemistry, r-
DNA technology, Plant biotechnology, Animal Biotechnology, Molecular genetics, and
Genomics & proteomics. During my studies, I have found that my interests are focused
particularly in the area of biochemistry, Molecular genetics, Cell and Molecular biology, and r-
DNA technology with emphasis on lipid metabolism, cell structures, molecular mechanism of
cell cycle, and cell signalling. I would like to visit United States of America and want to gain
work experience in my field of study so as to broaden my horizons while enhancing my career
profile. I feel I would be best utilized the facilities prevailing in the institute to increase my
knowledge relevant to this field and I feel comfortable in both working within a team
environment and on individual tasks. Working in an internship would give me an excellent
insight into your institute and be an outstanding opportunity for me to explore different working
methods and practice the knowledge I gained at institute. Friends and acquaintances all testify to
the fact that I relate to people easily and that I am able to adapt quickly to new surroundings and
situations. I have learnt to work towards, and achieve my aims with great commitment and
perseverance. An internship with you is of great interest to me and I look forward to hearing
from you soon.
