Subject:
Addressing the reason of Study Permit refusal and explanation
Respected Visa Officer,
I, XX applied for Study permit with SOWP for my spouse on XX, 20xx and got refusal on xx, 20xx. After addressing the reason carefully, I am applying again for the winter semester as I am permitted to continue my class through online for winter semester starting from
January xx.I am stating my explanation of first refusal in details as follows:
Refusal for Available Financial status:
In my last application, I showed
one year budget planning of my studies and living expense along with the living expense of my accompanying spouse. I am extremely apologized that I didn’t explained how the next year tuition and living expense would cover and also not shown enough fund though I had sufficient amount of money to cover this.
In this time, I am
paying one-year tuition fees in advance to my university and showed
two-year budget planning of my studies and living expense along with the expense of my accompanying spouse.
Note that, the money I have paid to the university is withdrawn from my mother’s account and the
money is legitimate as she is govt. employee and a tax payer. I have attached two-year tax assessment of my mother as a proof. Also, I have attached all of my bank account statement, bank solvency certificate, salary certificate, two year tax assessment, pay-slip which means the money I belong is legitimate.
Moreover, I explained about all financial documents in the “
Explanation letter of source of fund”. I strongly believe that, without working in Canada, we could easily maintain our educational expenses, living expenses, transportation expense and miscellaneous expenses by my existing money.
Refusal for Purpose of visit/Intended study is unrelated of previous study and career:
I have completed my bachelor in
Mechanical Engineering and completed
EMBA and my proposed study is Master of
Industrial Engineering, which might arose the confusion. I am again apologized that I didn’t clarify the whole thing in my previous study plan. However, I am explaining it now.
Please note that
Industrial Engineering is a branch of
Mechanical Engineering. Mechanical Engineering is a generic degree which focus on designing and building the mechanical devices and Industrial Engineering focus on how to utilize them effectively and efficiently to improve the productivity and gain the profit of the organization.
Industrial Engineers (*1) are also known as
Manufacturing/Process/Operation/Production Engineers. As my career is on steel manufacturing, I am taking care of both mechanical and operation activities of my department. My job is to make plan to utilize the machine effectively to gain the target productivity and improvement of the process continuously thus increase the profit of the organization. Also, maintain the machine breakdown-free by proper preventive maintenance. In short, my career is the blend of Mechanical & Industrial Engineering. But my theoretical background is less on Industrial Engineering and have faced lot of challenges as Industrial engineer that drives me to pursue the Master of Industrial Engineering degree to boost my professional career.
I also completed
EMBA degree and the main purpose was to gain business related knowledge. In our country, most Engineers have to do managerial role in the career and EMBA degree is a very good choice to gain basic knowledge about accounts, finance, HRM, management etc. The degree I have gained is especially for Engineers. A discount is offered by xx for the engineers who are the member of Institution of Engineers Bangladesh (IEB) for this degree. I took that opportunity and gained a very good knowledge about business side and helped me to act well in
managerial role. However, as I have completed my bachelor from xx, one of the best engineering university in xx and have gained vast experience from
two leading x manufacturer in the country, I have chosen to pursue my intended degree from xx
University, one of the best engineering university in North America. I am explaining how the intended course (*3) and subject would help my career progression as follows:
- INDU 6121 Applied Optimization (4 credits): Topics include model building in optimization and validation, application of optimization models in production and process.
- Career progression: I will gain knowledge on different mathematical models to optimize the production process.
- INDU 6211 Production Systems and Inventory Control (4 credits) [Prerequisite: INDU 6121]: Topics include various operational and planning issues in manufacturing industry: Integrated production planning and control. Large scale model development for demand forecasting, materials requirements planning and manufacturing resource planning (MRP/MRPII), production-inventory systems, production planning, determination of order quantities and safety stocks, inventory replenishment systems. Supply chain management, lean manufacturing.
- Career progression: As a manufacturing engineer, I have to forecast and budget all consumable and raw materials of the section as well as maintain safety stock of spares. This subject will enhance my knowledge on these areas and get familiar with supply chain management which is very crucial challenge for manufacturing engineer.
- INDU 6241 Lean Manufacturing (*4) (4 credits) [ Prerequisite: INDU 6211]: Topic includes Introduction to the basic principles and concepts of lean manufacturing; tools of lean manufacturing, including value stream mapping, standardized work, setup reduction; mapping the current state; mixed model value streams; mapping the future state; finished goods strategy, continuous flow, level pull, pacemaker, pitch, interval; implementing the future state.
- Career progression: As discussed above, lean manufacturing is very essential skill of a manufacturing engineer and this subject will cover the different tools of lean management.
- INDU 6321 Introduction to Six Sigma (*5) (4 credits) [Prerequisite: INDU 6331]: Topic includes Overview of the Six Sigma concept; Six Sigma deployment practice; Six Sigma methodologies for process improvement and process (DMAIC) and for product design (DMADV); Integration of Lean techniques in Six Sigma (Lean Six Sigma); Overview of different quality management tools applied in Six Sigma; Application of Designed of Experiments in Six Sigma; Design for Six Sigma through the application of the Robust Parameter Design; Six Sigma project management.
- Career progression: Six sigma is another very essential skill of a manufacturing engineer by which process can be optimized by root cause analysis of any breakdown and reduction of its repetition. I have faced most of the challenges regarding it in my job career. Definitely, it will emphasis my skills and experience and will ease the upcoming challenges.
- INDU 6310 Applied Probability and Statistics for Engineers (4 credits): This course introduces probability and statistics concepts frequently used in engineering applications. Analysis of residuals and remedial measures, transformation of data, multiple, polynomial and weighted regression, model selection techniques, and joint confidence regions concepts are taught with relevant industry applications.
- Career progression: Probability plays a very important role in manufacturing industry. For any root cause analysis, engineers relies on various data and probability factor. Analyzing proper data leads to desired outcome and proper output.
- INDU 6990 Industrial Engineering Capstone (9 credits)
- Career progression: In this course, student will work in a manufacturing industry where they will gather real experience and submit a project on this experience. It is a great chance for me to gain a huge experience by observing the cultures of the organization, Standard operating procedures in production process, different methods to achieve the maximum output etc. and I will utilize this experience into the organization of our country.
I believe, this course will enhance my skills and experiences thus boost my career and help me to assist to achieve vision of the organization. That’s why I don’t hesitate to pursue this degree.
