Dear Dr. Jesse Q.

Bond,

Warm Greetings, I am Md Tahseen Islam a chemical engineering graduate from Bangladesh, and
I am very eager to pursue my graduate studies at the prestigious Syracuse University. I have
already applied to the Fall 2022 session.

While conducting my search to find higher study options your inspiring profile caught my mind.
I am elated to find that Heterogeneous catalysis, Bio-based fuels and Energy sustainability are
three of your expertise fields which are very interesting and quite in line with my passion. I
found your papers “Production of Biofuels from Cellulose and Corn Stover using
Alkylphenol Solvents,” and “Conversion of Biomass to Biofuels” a very inspiring read. I believe
more focus and research should be invested to develop biomasses as renewable energy resources for a
sustainable future. I am very much interested to work with you if there is an opportunity in your
research group.
I have completed my B.Sc in chemical engineering in April 2019 with a CGPA of 3.01 (On a
scale of 4).Currently I am working in the production sector of Coats Bangladesh Ltd, One of
the largest thread manufacturers in the world. Prior to this I did my internship at Walton Hi-
Tech Industries Ltd as a Research and Development (R&D) engineer. In my senior year, I
conducted my undergraduate thesis on torrefaction of biomass, with an initiative to develop
biomass as a renewable fuel source in transportable solid form. The properties of the torrefied
products indicated improvement of its fuel value compared to the feedstock material, with less
volatile content and higher heating value. Our paper "Torrefaction of Biomass (Rice Husk):
Effect of Temperature and Time" has been selected for presentation at the 4th International
Conference on Mechanical, Industrial and Materials Engineering (ICMIME), 2019 proceedings
in Bangladesh. A sequel of our project titled, “Dry & Wet Torrefaction of Biomass: A
Comparative Study” was also selected for the 6th International Conference on Chemical
Engineering(ICChE), 2020 proceedings in Bangladesh.

I will be glad if you would kindly apprise me of the opportunities and possibilities for me to
work under your supervision.

I believe I can use my research and professional skills associated with my academic background
to be a vital part of your lab. I am attaching my CV for your consideration.

Thank you for your time. I am looking forward to your response with eager anticipation.

Sincerely,

Md. Tahseen Islam

Dear Dr. Qiang Huang,

Please accept my warm greetings, I am Mohammed Tahseen Islam a chemical engineering
graduate from Bangladesh, and I am very eager to pursue my graduate studies at the prestigious
University of Alabama. I have applied for the Fall 2022 session.
While conducting my search to find higher study options your inspiring profile caught my mind.
I am elated to find that your research group is conducting evolutionary research on
Superconducting Metals for Quantum Devices, Electrochemical 3D "Printing”, Electrochemical
Deposition of Chalcogenides and Interfacial Resistive Memory, etc. which are very inspiring and
quite in line with my passion. I found your papers “Effects of Organic Additives on the
Impurity and Grain Structure of Electrodeposited Cobalt” and “Ruthenium
Electrodeposition from Water-in-Salt Electrolytes and the Influence of
Tetrabutylammonium” to be very inspiring read. From my experience in working with

Dear Dr. Adam Lee,

Please accept my warm greetings, I am Mohammed Tahseen Islam a chemical engineering
graduate from Bangladesh, and I am very eager to pursue my graduate studies at the prestigious
RMIT University. I am willing to apply for the fall 2022 session.

While conducting my search to find higher study options your inspiring profile caught my mind.
I am elated to find that your team is conducting exceptional researches on green chemistry,
catalysis and the development of nanomaterials and biofuels, etc. which are very intriguing and
quite in line with my passion. I found your papers “Multifunctional Catalysts for Direct
Conversion of Alcohols to Long-Chain Hydrocarbons via Deoxygenative Olefination” and
“Flame-retardant effect of a functional DOPO-based compound on lignin-based epoxy
resins” a very inspiring read. From my experience in working with development of renewable
energy resources and polymer processing during my thesis project and internship respectively I
can feel and relate the importance of these projects to bring sustainability and I am willing to do
some meaningful research in this area. I am very much interested to work with you if there is an
opportunity in your research group.
I have completed my B.Sc. in chemical engineering in April 2019 with a CGPA of 3.01 (On a
scale of 4).Currently I am working in the production sector of Coats Bangladesh Ltd, One of
the largest thread manufacturers in the world. Prior to this I did my internship at Walton Hi-
Tech Industries Ltd as a Research and Development (R&D) engineer. In my senior year, I
conducted my undergraduate thesis on torrefaction of biomass, with an initiative to develop
biomass as a renewable fuel source in transportable solid form. The properties of the torrefied
products indicated improvement of its fuel value compared to the feedstock material, with less
volatile content and higher heating value. Our paper "Torrefaction of Biomass (Rice Husk):
Effect of Temperature and Time" has been selected for presentation at the 4th International
Conference on Mechanical, Industrial and Materials Engineering (ICMIME), 2019 proceedings
in Bangladesh. A sequel of our project titled, “Dry & Wet Torrefaction of Biomass: A
Comparative Study” was also selected for the 6th International Conference on Chemical
Engineering (ICChE), 2020 proceedings in Bangladesh.

I will be glad if you would kindly apprise me of the opportunities and possibilities for me to
work under your supervision. I believe I can use my research and professional skills associated
with my academic background to be a vital part of your lab. I will be extremely lucky if I get an
opportunity to work with your research group.
I am attaching my resume and academic transcripts for your consideration.
Thank you for your time. I am looking forward to your response with eager anticipation.

Dear Dr. Michael L. Greenfield,

Please accept my warm greetings, I am Mohammed Tahseen Islam, a chemical engineering

graduate from Bangladesh, and I am very eager to pursue my graduate studies at the prestigious
University of Rhode Island. I have already applied for the fall 2022 session.

Can you please help me with some queries regarding the application process?

1. While filling up my application, it appears that an evaluation of my academic

transcripts has to be done by a credential agency. As I have submitted my application by
January 14th, it won't be possible for me to manage the evaluation within time, will it
affect my reviewing process?

and also, is the evaluation mandatory?

 2. Again, do I need to send my transcripts through the mail to the university address, or can
I submit them after confirmation of admission?

3. If I submit the application by January 15, my recommenders will not be able to submit
the letters by the said deadline. Will that be a problem?

Please help me with the queries. I am looking forward to your response with eager anticipation.

Sincerely,

Tahseen

Dear Dr. Javier Macossay-Torres,

Please accept my warm greetings, I am Mohammed Tahseen Islam a chemical engineering
graduate from Bangladesh, and I am very eager to pursue my graduate studies (MS) at the
prestigious University of Texas Rio Grande Valley. I am willing to apply for the fall 2022
session.

I have some queries regarding the application requirements. Can you please help me with the
following queries :

The application process requires me to submit a WES evaluation of my academic transcripts

along with other documents but due to the current pandemic situation (covid-19) my
undergraduate university is conducting all the classes and logistics support through online
process and it will be very time consuming to get the WES evaluation within the said deadline.
Can I submit my application without it at this point and can the admission committee evaluate
my profile without the WES evaluation?
I am willing to submit the WES evaluated transcripts as soon as I get them in my hand.

Secondly, I have already processed my official test scores (GRE and IELTS) and official
academic transcripts to reach the university through mail but again due to the current covid-19
situation it might be delayed and exceed the deadline of March 15. Will that be a problem
regarding the evaluation of my application?

I am looking forward to your response with eager anticipation.
