    Dear Sir or Madam,

    I'm michael, a junior architect dedicated and concern about architecture as an essential tool to pursuit
    the ultimate happiness for humanity. I believe it is one of the main reasons that humankind had survived
    these last million years. I had a bachelor's degree from the Faculty of fine arts department architectural,
    had the LEED Green Associate credential, accredited from the U.S. GREEN BUILDING COUNCIL that
    demonstrates the knowledge and understanding of green building practices and principles. Excellent
    program commander of "AutoCAD, Revit Architecture, Sketchup, V-ray plugin, Lumion, Photoshop, and
    Illustrator," with more than two years' experience in interior architecture as a drafter and perspective
    illustrator for a sensible number of projects.

    When I was a kid, I used to see Antonio Gaudi's architecture works, especially "Basilica of Sagrada Família
    and Casa Batlló" through national geographic documentaries. Then I decided to complete my university
    study in Architecture. During college, I was fascinated with passive design, green and sustainable
    architecture. My graduation project was extremely affected by these terms and It was to design a stadium
    in an arid desert area exposed to a great deal of heat pressure. By mimicking the biology form of the
    cactus to generate a geometrical origami shape for the bowel of a stadium has many benefits. For
    instance; the structural designs of cactus have a low heat-reflecting capacity, since their surface is greatly
    reduced so as to cut down on the thermal gain, by equipping many cactuses with cooling ribs. These shade
    the cactus’s surface against the scorching sun and simultaneously improve heat radiation, Ribs and
    tubercles are another type of surface modification that can affect surface temperature. Consequently, the
    entire stadium's skin which is about an origami shape, is not fully exposed to the sun due to the self-
    shading by changing its R-value, cutting the cost of artificial ventilation and the cost of operation. Since
    that time, I had known what I'm going to specialize in after my graduation.

    As I have mentioned before, my life dream is to work in the sustainable architecture field. So I carried out
    extensive research into Deggendorf Institute to apply for the master program " Healthy and Sustainable
    Buildings, M.Eng." and Hochschule Wismar applying for "Master in Architecture" as I found that: they have
    an impressive track record of achievement, are very supportive of their students, have a high rate of
    acceptance for international students, have an inspiring working climate with the appropriate degree of
    on-site support, they provide extensive master program full of knowledge and regard to do something
    unusual in sustainability and architecture which will help me to achieve my long term career goals with a
    high standard that respected by the industry.

    I had and still have the honest intention which pushing me to do something great through sustainable and
    environmental architecture, which may serve the humanity and public common, but truly goodwill is not
    enough as there is so much yet to learn and gain in this regard. Admission to this scholarship would be
    extremely helpful for a step towards becoming a better and more educated architect, I also hope to
    reinforce and perfect previous experience and education on how to implement and manage different
    architecture projects. Your generous scholarship is not just money given it's more than that. It is the given
    love and a continuous way for the good from you. I believe that you want me to do the same as you do:
    yearn soul for helping others, spread the gaining knowledge.

    Thank you for providing such a great scholarship dedicated for architect to help them achieving their goals.

    Sincerely,
    Michael
