Dear Mr. Rahman,
I am writing this Internship Application Letter to express my enthusiastic interest in the Chemistry Intern position at Bashundhara Chemical Industries Ltd., as advertised on the University of Dhaka Career Portal. As a final-year B.Sc. (Hons) Chemistry student at Dhaka University with an unwavering passion for analytical chemistry and chemical process optimization, I am confident that my academic foundation, laboratory skills, and deep commitment to advancing scientific excellence in Bangladesh Dhaka make me an ideal candidate for this opportunity.
The vibrant scientific ecosystem of Bangladesh Dhaka has long inspired my academic journey. Growing up in the heart of Dhaka, I witnessed firsthand how chemical innovations drive sustainable development across our nation – from pharmaceutical production in Gulshan to textile processing in Savar. My undergraduate research on "Heavy Metal Contamination Analysis in Meghna River Water" (2022-2023) was deeply motivated by local environmental challenges. Using ICP-MS and HPLC techniques at the University of Dhaka's Central Laboratory, I analyzed 150+ water samples across 15 districts, identifying lead concentrations exceeding WHO limits in three locations. This project not only earned me a Dean’s Award for Outstanding Research but also cemented my resolve to contribute to Bangladesh Dhaka's scientific advancement.
My academic curriculum has equipped me with comprehensive technical competencies directly applicable to the Chemist internship role. I have mastered advanced laboratory techniques including:
- Quantitative analysis using titration, spectrophotometry, and chromatography
- Quality control protocols aligned with ISO 9001 standards
- Environmental testing for pollutants (heavy metals, pesticides, VOCs)
- Data interpretation via statistical software (SPSS and Minitab)
What particularly draws me to Bashundhara Chemical Industries Ltd. is your pioneering work in green chemistry initiatives, especially the "Dhaka Clean Water Project" launched in 2022. Your company's commitment to developing affordable water purification solutions using locally sourced catalysts aligns perfectly with my research interests and vision for sustainable chemistry in Bangladesh Dhaka. I am eager to apply my knowledge of catalytic processes during this internship, particularly in optimizing the production of your bio-based disinfectants. Having followed your company's recent publication in the Journal of Applied Chemistry (Vol. 45, Issue 2), I propose a potential project: analyzing the efficacy of rice husk-derived silica catalysts for fluoride removal – a solution directly relevant to rural communities across Bangladesh.
My understanding of Dhaka's unique scientific landscape extends beyond technical skills. I have actively participated in the "Young Scientists Network" at Dhaka University, organizing three workshops on laboratory safety protocols attended by 150+ students from seven local universities. As a volunteer for the Bangladesh Chemical Society's community outreach program, I led a team that conducted free water testing for 300+ families in Korail slum – experiences that taught me to communicate complex chemistry concepts to diverse audiences. These initiatives reinforced my belief that scientific excellence must serve societal needs, especially in densely populated urban centers like Bangladesh Dhaka.
I am particularly drawn to the collaborative culture at Bashundhara Chemical Industries Ltd. Your recent partnership with BRAC University on sustainable polymer research demonstrates the kind of interdisciplinary innovation I seek. During my university internship, I collaborated with environmental engineering students to develop a low-cost biosensor for arsenic detection – a project that required translating chemical principles into practical community tools. This experience mirrors Bashundhara's approach where chemistry doesn't exist in isolation but as part of holistic solutions.
My adaptability to Dhaka's dynamic work environment is proven through my 18-month volunteer role at the Bangladesh Institute of Research and Development (BIRD), where I managed lab equipment during monsoon seasons that frequently disrupted power supplies. I developed contingency protocols for instrument calibration, ensuring uninterrupted testing during critical periods – a skill I know will be valuable in Dhaka's infrastructure context. Furthermore, my fluency in Bengali (native), English (IELTS 7.5), and basic Hindi enables effective communication with diverse teams across Bangladesh.
I am prepared to commit 40 hours weekly during the summer internship period (June–August 2024) and welcome the opportunity to contribute immediately upon joining. My resume, attached for your review, provides additional detail on my academic achievements and projects. I have included a letter of recommendation from Dr. Farida Akhtar (Head of Chemistry Department, Dhaka University) who has mentored me since my second year.
Thank you for considering this Internship Application Letter. I am eager to discuss how my skills in analytical chemistry, passion for environmental applications, and deep understanding of Dhaka's scientific needs can benefit Bashundhara Chemical Industries Ltd. I have attached my CV and academic transcripts for your convenience and welcome the opportunity to interview at your earliest convenience.
Sincerely,
Ahmed Rahman
