Dear Admissions Committee,

I am writing to express my enthusiastic interest in the Master's program in Applied

Linguistics by research at Swansea University. With a profound passion for languages and a
desire to delve deeper into research, I am eager to contribute to interdisciplinary research
at your institution and benefit from the esteemed academic environment, its innovative
faculty, comprehensive curriculum, and commitment.

In addition, my involvement in research project focused on EFL and language acquisition

has been in EFL environment and has equipped me with strong analytical skills and a
critical understanding of current trends in the field of applied linguistics, but delving
deeply into this field in the native language setting would contribute more in my
knowledge and practices of the language. I am particularly intrigued by the intersection of
technology and language learning, and I am eager to explore innovative approaches to
language instruction and assessment, and later transmitting them in EFL setting.

Moreover, as a PhD holder in Applied Discourse Analysis, I am committed to conducting

empirical research that not only advances theoretical knowledge but also generates
practical insights with real-world implications. I am eager to immerse myself in the
research process, from formulating research questions and designing methodologies to
collecting data, analyzing findings, and disseminating results through scholarly
publications and presentations.

To sum up, I am confident that pursuing Master by Research in Applied Linguistics at your
university will provide me with the intellectual stimulation, research training, and
professional development opportunities necessary to achieve my academic and career
opportunities.

Thank you for considering my application. I look forward to the opportunity to contribute
to the academic community at Swansea University and to embark on this exciting journey
of intellectual growth and discovery.

Sincerely yours,

Rizgar Ahmed H. Mohammed
