Motivation Letter

Since I was in senior high school, I have wanted to be a master and professional researcher in the field of technology. After graduating from senior high school, I continued my study to Universitas Gunadarma(UG) majoring in Informatics Engineering. Then I chose Computational and Artificial Intelligence (AI) as my specialization because it is very interesting and also will become an important topic for our future. So I have experience to implement some applications using AI’s method such as Fuzzy Logic, Neural Network, and Imaging and Signal Processing.

In the same way, I have implemented a Fuzzy Logic method for robot movements into my final project titled “Ultrasonic Rangefinder Control and Firefighting Robot Movement Using Fuzzy Logic”, an implementation of the Fuzzy Logic method to control movements of the wheeled robot using ultrasonic sensors as a data acquisition.
Besides studying, I was a member of the robotics research organization in my college and selected as the leader in 2013. When having joined robotics team, I conducted some research in robotics field such as firefighting robot, legged robot, and humanoid robot. Moreover, in the organization, I learnt not only how to develop a robot but also how to organize and make a solid team. Also, I was active in the blogger community called Plat-M which spreads knowledge in field information technology like teaching use of information technology mainly in using internet well for common people.

Now, I am a candidate of (DIKTI/LPDP/DAAD/OTHERS) scholarship for master program and looking for university to continue my study. I choose Taiwan as Taiwan is one of the most supportive countries for international students. For this reason, I plan to continue my study in master of Computer Science and Information Engineering at National Yunlin University of Science and Technology (YunTech). At the first glance, I have seen that YunTech is one of the most prestigious universities in Taiwan and provides some courses related to my interest in the field of computer science such as imaging and signal processing, biomedical informatics, and robotics.
Many research conducted by its professors is published in famous international journals. Therefore, I am very interested to be involved in that research. I do believe that studying at YunTech would enable me to be more expert in relation with my interest. In addition, study abroad would be able to give me a chance to interact and communicate with international students and communities. Moreover, I would be able to learn other cultures and languages, work ethic and international cooperation and organization. These will lead me to get more experience for hard and soft skills, which play an important role in life and society.

In addition, I have acquired more information when the international office of YunTech conducted presentation in Bandung and have read descriptions of the program offered by Department of Computer Science and Information Engineering in which the courses are the ones fulfilling my need. Therefore, it would be a good chance for me if I am given an opportunity to join YunTech. Also, I will complete the master degree no more than 2 years, give my best perform and show determination and hard work to make my dreams come true.
