LETTER OF RECOMMENDATION

To Whom It May Concern:

Ms. Haryanti Rivai, S.T. has asked that I prepare this official Letter of Recommendation to support her intention to continue her study to pursue a Masters Degree in Information Technology or other related area in Electrical and Computer Engineering. 

Last year, Ms. Haryanti Rivai completed her first degree in the Department of Electrical Engineering,  Hasanuddin University, Makassar, INDONESIA, where I myself  have been with since 1983.  Ms. Haryanti Rivai was one of the best graduates of our department, her cummulative GPA at the end of her study program was 3.07 out of maximum 4.00, which has proven her academic ability. By examining her academic transcript, I see in her the many qualities of both an excellent engineer and an enthusiastic researcher.

After completing her first degree in Electrical Engineering with excellent grades, Ms. Haryanti Rivai told me her intention to continue her study. This has proven to me how she values education highly. 

I have been so thoroughly impressed by Ms. Haryanti Rivai’s technical competence in her field, and that she showed great interest in learning about the new technology in the Information Technology, I wholeheartedly recommend her for any opportunity to pursue a higher degree program in this field. 

Should you wish any further information, please feel free to contact me, and I will gladly respond to your inquiries.

With kindest regards,

Rhiza S. Sadjad, Ir., M.S.E.E., Ph.D.
