LETTER OF RECOMMENDATION

To Whom It May Concern:

Mr. Muhammad Said, S.T. has asked that I prepare this official Letter of Recommendation to support his intention to continue his study to pursue a Masters degree in Electrical Engineering or other related fields of study. I do so with great enthusiasm.

Five years ago, Mr. Muhammad Said 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. Muhammad Said took several basic courses in Electrical Engineering that I taught like Basic Control Systems and Linear Systems. He had a very strong fundamental in Mathematics and Physics. 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 3.18 out of 4.00. During his tenure as a student, Mr. Muhammad Said was also an active laboratory assistant in my Control Systems and Instrumentation Laboratory. 
	
	Since his graduation, Mr. Muhammad Said has been involved in varieties of educational activities including tutoring in pre-college preparation study groups and teaching in some private universities here in Makassar. I heard that he has done a perfect job as an educator, trainer and instructor. This has indicated that he strongly values education and has been highly motivated to pursue a career in education.

I have been so thoroughly impressed by Mr. Muhammad Said’s academic competence in his field, so that I wholeheartedly recommend him for any opportunity to continue his study. 

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

With kindest regards,

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