Ms. Carol Higgins

Manager

XYZ Engineering Firm

647 Revolution Way

Dallas, TX 76352

Dear Ms. Higgins:

I am a sophomore at Western Plains University interested in pursuing a career in Chemical

Engineering. A summer internship with your company would provide me with the opportunity to

apply the knowledge learned in my first two years of coursework at WPU. I have researched

XYZ Engineering Firm and your commitment to excellence and active involvement in the

community are very important criteria to me when selecting a company.

In my first two years at WPU I excelled academically with an overall GPA of 3.5/4.0 with a 3.80

in my major classes. The School of Engineering awarded me the Bob McElroy scholarship for

academic excellence in my sophomore year. I am a very dedicated, hard working person hoping

to make a difference. Recently, the Young Engineer's Club elected me President, which has

given me the opportunity to strengthen my communication and leadership skills. My skills,

knowledge and desire fit the company philosophy of XYZ Engineering Firm.

I hope we can further discuss my qualifications and how they might be utilized in a summer

internship with your company. I will contact you the week of April 8th to explore this possibility.

If you would prefer, you can reach me at (213) 645-2735. Thank you for your attention and

consideration in this matter.

Sincerely,

(Signature)

Michael D. Dennis
