LETTER OF RECOMMENDATION

To Whom It May Concern:

Mr. Jumahardi, S.T. has asked that I prepare this official Letter of Recommendation to support his intention to apply for a teaching position at your polytechnic institute. I do so with great enthusiasm.

Two years ago, Mr. Jumahardi completed his first degree (Sarjana Teknik, S.T.) in the Department of Electrical Engineering, Hasanuddin University, Makassar INDONESIA, where I myself have been with since 1983.  He was one of my best students. Mr. Jumahardi took all of my classes, mostly in Electronics, Automatic Control and Linear Systems area. As I remember it, he always received good grades for his excellent test-results, examination and class-papers. He graduated with a cumulative GPA of 3.03 out of 4.00. I supervised his final undergraduate project which was an analysis, modelling and simulation of the sun position detector control system.
	
	Since his graduation, Mr. Jumahardi has been helping me as my assistant to grade almost all my students’ examination-papers and class-papers. He has done a perfect job, I have almost never received any complaint from students whose papers were graded by Mr. Jumahardi. This indicates that he is very accurate in doing his job. I also admire his ability to work hard, his strong motivation to learn and his competence in his field. I observed that he has no difficulty what so ever to work together with his colleagues. I am very proud of this young man, and I am very happy to hear that he has planned to pursue a career in education.

I have been so thoroughly impressed by Mr. Jumahardi’s academic competence in his field, so that I wholeheartedly recommend him for any opportunity to join your intitute as your prospective faculty member. 

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

With kindest regards,

Dr.Ir.H. Rhiza S. Sadjad, M.S.E.E.
