Dear Professor:
I consider it a great pleasure to recommend to you Mr. X, who has been known to me for a long time as a truly exceptional young student. He enrolled in the special class for gifted children as a 15-year-old student at XXX University, and used only 3 years to finish his 4-year undergraduate program. He entered the Physics department at XXX University in 2001 when he was only 15 years old. In the coming June he is expected to be the youngest graduate student in our department with a M.S. degree.
I was the Dean of the School of Science at XXX Univ. when he entered our school in 2001. he has paid all his efforts to coursed study and research work. As far as I know, he has been successful in almost all the major coursed taken. He began his Master research in the autumn of last year. At that time, much attention was directed to mesoscopic and nanoscale physics, with papers published in
Mr. X has done much important research work. He has written 200 papers in the past one year, many of them submitted to or accepted by the top journals. He has proven me extraordinary ability to study physics with engineering ideas. With a slid engineering background and well-trained experimental ability, he concerns not only the modern physical theories but also the experimental chemistry methods in research. His ideas in the “carbon-based chemistry” seem quite valuable. He has mastered the idea of microscopic design of electronic structures. This method enables one to find materials with proper wavelengths in electronics.
Mr. X has the temperament to be a successful scientist. The research topics he interested in are usually the widely discussed new topics in the best journals. He is good at finding problems from research works of others that appear to be perfect. In out seminars he always raised many critical questions and adds further insight into problems. He benefits much from his comprehensive knowledge and his exceptional ability to analyze problems independently and express ideas clearly.
Mr. X has been a teaching assistant in our group and shown his strong responsibility to students. His English proficiency is excellent. He has the ability of general reading in English, which enables him to find out quickly the newest progressed in his research areas from hundreds of new articles each month. His spoken English ability enabled him to be a superior translator in international conferences. He rarely prepared a draft when writing English papers or articles, but just wrote down in once with few mistakes. Most of his papers were written in English.
As a very brilliant young man, Mr. X has an extremely assiduous attitude toward work. Every time I go to the graduates’ room, he can always be found reading articles or making calculations. Sometime I even wonder whether he needs to take a rest. However, I was moved when he told me how diligence and perseverance are indispensable for hard-earned achievements he has had and success in science that he desires. He wishes to work in the area between physics and chemistry. I hope his dream of being an illustrious scientist in this area can become true in the future. Therefore, I will be really delighted to see him realizing his academic goals in the XXX department of XXX University. After his doctoral study in XXX Univ., he will refresh the applied physics research t XXX Univ. with the advanced knowledge learned from you, and your eminent training for an unusual young Chinese graduate will be greatly appreciated by then.
Sincerely,
