1. Essay Stipendium Hungaricum

Dear Admission Committee,

I am writing this letter to apply for a master’s in electrical engineering at the Budapest University of Technology and Economics (BME) in Hungary. Related to my background, I accomplished my bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering from X University in 2020 with a CGPA of 3.95 out of 4.0.

From a very young age, I have been playing with and repairing broken electrical and electronic objects at a scrap dealer’s shop right in front of my home, which generated interest in me to learn more about these devices. The best part of my undergrad was group projects. Being a group leader, I have always sought to put an innovative approach to engineering challenges and have received either funding or awards and have published papers on them.

My project for the final year was based on the Smart Grid (SG) and Demand Side Load Management (DSM). I aimed to have a load-shedding alternative, a critical challenge for many developing nations, including mine, Nigeria. I have successfully built an intelligent energy meter hardware model that can optimize electricity consumption to reduce peak demand and prevent overload situations that can cause load shedding or power blackout. This project was awarded government funding.

In addition to Power Systems as a fundamental specialty and Smart Systems Integrations as a secondary specialization, my master’s degree in electrical engineering at BME will boost not only my skill set but also my potential to understand challenges, think abstractly, see the broader picture, and flourish my ability to build strategies to make a power system smart. This program would allow me to explore further smart grids and methods for designing intelligent networks that could make the power sector more efficient and resilient.

After completing my master’s degree and returning full of skills and expertise, I would join the National Transmission and Dispatch Company (NTDC), a government-based entity that operates 500 and 220-kV transmission and grid stations. This would be the perfect way for me to use my skills and expertise acquired from abroad to pull my country out of the energy crisis.

……

I want to conclude that I am excited to learn new experiences, strengthen my skills, and expand my knowledge of the world’s power structure, and I am confident that learning electrical engineering at BME would lead to my career growth in the best possible way. Thank you very much for considering my application.

Sincerely,
[Nama]

3. Essay LPDP

Having worked in the education field, most recently at the Ministry of Education and Culture of the Republic of Indonesia for over 6 years, I seek to leverage the knowledge and perspectives gained to pursue a master’s degree in education policy at the University of Pennsylvania’s Graduate School of Education with the LPDP Scholarship. My core belief is that every student has the right to equal opportunity in inclusive education. Thus, the knowledge and degree I will acquire through my Penn GSE education will aid me in addressing two areas of inequality in the Indonesian education sector: access (geographic remoteness) and gender.

Finally, I believe I will be an excellent fit for the LPDP scholarship because LPDP shares my belief: education must advance equity, inclusion, and belonging for those not systematically privileged by our society. Having been involved in shaping a landmark policy in the Indonesian education system, I am convinced that we need to establish a more vital link and bridge the gap between theory and practice. The LPDP Scholarship undoubtedly offers the ideal program to advance my pursuit of higher education, enabling me to develop the necessary tools and skills to bridge that gap and formulate policies that better serve the needs of the people.

I witnessed for myself that there was a massive gap in education quality and access between students in a rural area of Papua named Keerom and those in the Indonesian capital city, Jakarta. Apart from the geographical element, susceptibility to violence is also an inhibiting factor for the lack of education quality and access. When I was in Keerom to socialize the dangers of bullying for students and teachers, I found much of their cluelessness about acts of violence that are considered typical and barred to talk about.

Then, I aim to contribute to gender equality in the education sector, a deep-rooted and challenging issue in Indonesia’s patriarchal society. One of my involvements with this issue was in 2020 when I was assigned to take part in the design and launch of the Ministry’s Regulation on the Prevention and Handling of Sexual Violence in Higher Education (MOE Regulation 30/2021). Based on the Ministry’s 2020 survey, 77% of Indonesian professors believed sexual violence had previously occurred on campus. Still, only 37% felt safe reporting it to their campus authority. This policy is a significant breakthrough because it has not only established a system for redress on campuses for the first time but also opened public conversations about sexual offenses in higher education that have long been taboo in Indonesian society.

5. Essay Australia Awards Scholarship

Viruses are a significant health problem both in Indonesia and the world. HIV-AIDS, COVID-19, MERS, and SARS are infectious diseases that have shocked the world’s health system. Handling of infectious diseases caused by viruses must compete with the speed of virus mutation as well as the virus resistance to the existing antiretrovirals.

This phenomenon requires scientists in the field of drug discovery to find drug compounds that actively inhibit virus replication from both natural and synthetic materials. As a lecturer and researcher, I plan to pursue my doctoral education in pharmaceutical science specified in drug discovery for infectious diseases from natural products. I want to conduct research on the discovery of anti-Human Immunodeficiency Virus (anti-HIV) drugs from marine natural products. My research will deliver crude natural products from the oceans to a laboratory scale which will then help to cure people living with HIV.

……

Griffith University has a special department called the Griffith Institute for Drug Discovery (GRIDD). There is a field of infectious disease research that is in line with my scientific concern. In addition, Griffith also has a Nature Bank which stores rich biodiversity collections, including products of marine nature, allowing me to be closer to my goal of becoming an expert in the field of drug discovery from products of marine nature. The University of Queensland has a Molecular Biodiscovery research group in which there is a research area on the development of new drugs for infectious diseases. In this research group, there are also several professors who are concerned with the development of drugs from marine natural products. Both GRIDD and UQ provide world-class laboratory facilities for conducting research. Doing research at GRIDD and UQ, as well as getting supervision from potential professors, will hone my knowledge and skills in drug discovery from marine natural products for infectious diseases.

……

After years of studying overseas, I will gain deeper knowledge, improved skills, and wider connections. The knowledge, skills, and connections will be very impactful for my students, institution, and organizations. For my short-term plan, I will return to teach and inspire my students with my experiences during my studies and conduct research on anti-HIV drugs from marine natural products. For my medium-term plan, I will continue to collaborate with my supervisors and other researchers in Australia as a step to generate a database on anti-HIV from marine natural products. This database will be very beneficial for the development of anti-HIV drugs. For my long-term plan, I will establish the Department of Drug Discovery from Marine Natural Products at my college. This Department will be the spearhead for developing marine natural medicines in West Nusa Tenggara. I will collaborate with various agencies that focus on developing marine natural medicines such as the National Research and Innovation Agency and also the Ministry of Marine Affairs and Fisheries of the Republic of Indonesia.

6. Essay Global Korea Scholarship (GKS)

Aged 16, the gripping awe in my heart every time I saw outfits of character Cheon Song Yi (played by actress Jun Ji-hyun) in K-Drama You Who Came From the Stars opened my mind to the progressive world of the Korean fashion scene. Over the last 7 years, my discoveries of other such dramas, music videos & Seoul Fashion Week shaped my youth greatly. Every art/creative aspirant has a muse that influences them, and I found relativity and my muse in Korean media’s reliance on conceptual styling plus their unique approach to clothes. It showed me how experimentation & infusion of cultures found in those aesthetics can have a tremendous impact globally. But they also have very sophisticated and minimal styles used in daily lives.

My motivation for aspiring to study in Korea is an amalgamation of many events such as the news of fashion/art being highlighted by the Korean government as the next “soft powers” and government-based global fashion programs like Concept Korea that is hosted by KOCCA (Korea Creative Content Agency) to showcase new designers every year in New York Fashion Week. I read how Korea has the most suitable environment for emerging clothing brands owing to its rising number of young designers, perfect infrastructure to sustain large textile industries, celebrity culture for marketing, ample training opportunities, fastest internet pace, etc. Their universities offer the correct balance between theory, practical, and active college life. Also, Seoul ranks among the Top 3 cities in a recent survey by Statista – QS Best International Student Cities 2022.

7. Essay Fulbright Scholarship

Living in a patriarchal society where I am being told on a daily basis that women are not supposed to pursue higher education, in fact encouraged me to continue my studies and prove to myself that I am worthy and equal.

In 2006, the chance to study abroad to the U.S. through YES (Youth Exchange and Study) program also expanded my perspectives and beliefs that English is an international means of communication.

During my undergraduate studies, I applied knowledge and skills I earned in the classroom into something practical.

A year later, I graduated as a valedictorian in my department and returned to teach English in my Islamic boarding school.

In 2017, I was granted the Fulbright FLTA to teach Indonesian language at Columbia University, New York.

Looking backward at the challenges that I encountered during my six-year teaching experience, I realized that I need to continue my studies to elevate my own knowledge and skills in English Language Teaching to give more impact and contribution to Indonesians.

Upon the completion of my study, I plan to work as a lecturer at my alma mater, the English Department, University of Airlangga, and to enlarge the TOEFL ITP community by providing English online courses.
