xxxxxxxxx, senior year student of Chemical Engineering, yyyyyy(college name), has been one of the

best I have seen in my career.

I first got the chance to interact with Alhad when I supervised his Process Equipment
Design course in his sophomore year. He impressed me with his ability to apply theoretical formulae in
designing process equipment. He approached the design problems in an organized manner and made
very good use of his strong basics. His performance manifested itself in the grade he got, which was
the highest in the class.
In his junior year, xxxxxx took two courses of Reaction Engineering under me. He participated
very earnestly in classroom discussions. His meticulous preparation for classes has always impressed
me. His performance in tests showed his strong grip over Chemical Engineering fundamentals. As
expected, he did extremely well in both courses.
I also supervised xxxxs Reaction Engineering Laboratory course in his junior year. He faced no
difficulty in transforming theoretical ideas into practice. His reports on the experiments that he did
were very well written and reflected strong analytical ability. During the course, I observed that
xxxxxxxx is very capable of working as part of a group. Once again, he got the highest possible
grade.
Among the undergraduate students I have seen in my career,xxxxxxxxx would rank among the
top 1%. Right from his sophomore year, I have felt that xxxxxxx has it in him to excel in the field of
research. I am sure his strong grasp over basic principles will hold him in good stead. I have no
hesitation in recommending xxxxxxxxxx for graduate study at your institute with full financial aid. I
wish xxxxxx the very best of luck for everything that he sets out to achieve.

(Dr.

It is with great pleasure that I recommend Mrxxxxxx whom I have known for the past two years. He has been a
student in four of my courses during which I got to know him very well.
I have observed that xxxxxxxxxxxx is bestowed with excellent temperament, sincerity and motivation. He is highly
industrious and organized. He is smart and intelligent person equipped with good analytical, reasoning and
communication skills. He has a very good academic record, and this should be enough evidence of his seriousness
towards education. I enjoyed his presence in my class, since he was one of the few students who frequently
intervened during my lectures with interesting questions and observations. He displayed a strong pragmatic attitude
while working on the assignments given to him.
He has been very active in the academic as well as co-curricular activities in the institute. I believe he has been one
of the few students who have managed to balance their life in XXXXXX (COLLEGE NAME), demonstrating fine ability
to work hard. His choice of courses and performance clearly indicate his interest and enthusiasm in pursuing higher
studies in transportation engineering. I am positive that xxxxxxxxxx will excel in his professional career. Without an
iota of doubt, I am convinced that he will be able to meet the high academic standards set by your university.
I very strongly recommend xxxxxxxxxxxxxx for your graduate program in xxxx Engineering (with specific focus in
xxxxxxxxxx Engineering), with full financial assistance to enable him in achieving his academic and career goals.

LETTER
of

OF

RECOMMENDATION

It is my utmost pleasure to introduce xxxxxxxxxxxx, a senior year student of the Department

Chemical
Engineering,
yyyy
college.

I first came to know xxxxxxxxxxxxx when I supervised his Heat Transfer

Laboratory ( 0-0-6) course in his junior year. The first thing that struck me during
this course was his ability to extend the concepts that he had learnt in the theory
course and apply them in practical situations. He displayed remarkable ability to
work as part of a group. His performance was reflected in his grade, which was the
highest
in
the
class.

As part of the Industrial Pollution Control ( 3-1-0) course this semester, I have
seen that he is an earnest and hardworking student, preparing thoroughly for each
and every class. He shows an enthusiasm to learn as much of the subject matter as
possible. His diligence is also evident in the excellent marks he has obtained in the
mid term examinations. It is a delight to have a student like him in my class.

I was also part of the panel for xxxxxs industrial training evaluation. I was
very impressed by the projects that he did in the short span of 2 months during
which he worked as a summer trainee. His work, no doubt, reflects his ability to use
his chemical engineering knowledge in practical situations. He presented a seminar
on Effect of extrusion parameters and their effect on extruded HDPE
filaments,which was the topic of his work during his summer training. His
presentation was very good and he displayed strong command over the English
language
and
excellent
communication
skills.

xxxxxx is without doubt one of the best students I have ever come across and
I would easily bracket him in the top 1% of all the students I have taught in my
career, spanning 35 years. He has always shown that he has what it takes to pursue
a career in research and he would undoubtedly be an ideal graduate student, just as
he
has
been
an
exceptional
undergraduate
student.

In addition to his academic achievements, xxxxx has impressed me with his disposition.
He has a very pleasing personality, and can work very well in a team as I noted in the laboratory.
Without any reservations, I recommend that Alhad be considered favorably for admission to your
university
with
full
financial
aid.

I
wish
endeavors.

( Dr. xxxxxxxxxxxxx )

for

all

his

future

I with immense pleasure recommend Mr. Baskar Dinesh to your esteemed organization. I have been
associated closely with him for three years. I always truly enjoyed the sessions I had with him during
these three years. Having handled various core subjects in Chemical Engineering as Heat Transfer,
Process Calculations and Process Equipment Design, I can say that Dinesh is a student who has
immense potential. He startled me with his ability to grasp the subject with ease.
I also would like to list his academic achievements as no mean feat. Staying in the top 5% in the class
& also associating with various different extra-curricular activities shows his capability in managing
himself. He has excellent communication & interpersonal skills which makes interaction with him a
pleasure.
Having also handled lab courses I found his ability to relate the experimental data with the theoretical
assumption. Fascinated by various concepts he on his own interests went through various books to
understand the subject better. He has been a secretary in organizing Pansophy a national level
technical symposium. He also is a member of various organizations as IIChE (Indian institute of
chemical engineers), ACT (Association of Chemical Technologists). I also happen to know that his
knowledge in computers is highly commendable. He has created a niche for himself in this
department. He is one person who is in good books of all the teaching staff in our college because of
the above stated credentials. I also strongly endorse this opinion.
I assure you he is in the Ivy League of students I have been associated with for the past six years. I
strongly recommend him to your graduate degree program at your university with all possible financial
aid.
