Sample cover letter for Internship position at Marquette University Career Services Center

I am writing in reference to the Lab Tech Internship position listed recently in the Marquette University Career Services Center. This position appeals to me because of my strong interest in a pharmaceutical laboratory in addition to using the knowledge I’ve gained through my science classes in college.

I am currently a sophomore at Marquette University in Milwaukee, WI working on my bachelor of science degree in biology. Some strengths of mine include being a self-motivated hard worker. As a biology student, I am often required to work independently on my own laboratory projects requiring me to be accurate and consistent as I work. In addition, I am able to successfully maintain a good grade point average while working part-time to earn money for my college tuition and also remaining involved as a campus leader. These skills, combined with my educational background in biology, make me an ideal candidate for this internship position.
