MOTIVATION LETTER

Dear Sir or Madam, My name is Faikha’ Fairuz Firdausi and I am currently studying Bachelor of International Relations at Muhammadiyah University Malang. I am interested in applying for the Erasmus Mundus External Cooperation Windows “Let’s Move Together” Program as I would love the opportunity to study in Europe, a region where differences embedded as one in the European Union. In this motivation letter, I would like to express briefly about my reasons in applying for the program. Generally, there are two main reasons highlighting my desire to pursue study in Europe, the first is for my academic objective and the other is for my interests and both of them are related each other. What initially attracted me to the study of International Relations was the opportunity to learn about countries and cultures that are different from my own. Through my studies, I have been able to learn about the history, culture and politics of other countries. This study has taught me many skills, allowed me to open my mind and critically think about the country that I live in, and the way my country acts internationally. It was my study in International Relations which has brought me to be a delegate in the 1 st International Conference on Globalization, Governance, and Sustainability for Youth in ASEAN held by Universiti Sains Malaysia. We presented our papers and discussed problems occurred among us the ASEAN member countries. Since then, I realized that in order to unify and integrate different countries is not an easy way to go. There are always problem arise and obstacles occur. However, when I then see to the European Union, there’s something emerges my curiosity. Seeing the fact that different countries can be integrated as one in harmony is a very great thing to achieve. It makes me believe that I have to find out on how to make it come true. I really want to learn on how they can maintain their unity, while the substantial point is to manage the differences. Therefore, experiencing the study in Europe first hand would be a valuable opportunity for me. I really hope that I can get the chance, so that when I’m home, I can apply what I have learned about maintaining unity and managing differences in my home country. My bigger dream is to create harmony in ASEAN, the region where I live in. I want to create good integration among the country members with the development of many aspects in this world due to globalization. I have some plans to assemble my friends from different member countries in ASEAN in order to discuss more about how to create harmony and the better future for our regional cooperation. This knowledge acquired from European Union will create good nutrients to fill our discussion later on. I’m planning to take Political Studies in this program, as my major is in the political science. However, I also want to study more about culture, in which it is embedded not only in the political studies. Therefore, I choose political sciences and other cultural program. Because, in my opinion, I order to know how the country is we have to know not only its politics, but also its culture and history. Culture itself not only can be seen in the way of life. Other simple matters such as music, folklores, as well as language can be viewed as the reflection of culture too. This culture shapes people’s way of life. It creates different point of view of

each person. It will also affect their habit in treating others. Therefore, it can be seen in their political movement, as one country has different political movement with other countries. I’m really interested in it, because it will also help me in defining how culture would impact political movement, because I consider it as unique and attractive. Therefore, I’m really looking forward for this chance to pursue further studies in Europe. Meanwhile, I also have my personal desire to experience life in Europe. The differences between my home country and European country are varied from geographic to the way of life. For an Asian student accustomed with two seasons country such as me, experiencing life in four seasons countries would be unforgettable. Of course with that difference, the people culture would be different too. Given the fluctuating temperature where you can have flower blooms around you in one time and piles of snow in the other time, it would be somewhat fun and interesting for me. I really hope I can experience it soon....
