sree@ut-emx.UUCP (N. Srinivasan) (07/26/90)

							July 25, 1990.

Dear Prospective Employer:

I am a Graduate Student in the Biomedical Engineering Department at the
University of Texas at Austin. I will be graduating with my Master's degree  
this August with a GPA of 3.85/4.0. After my undergraduation in Electrical
Engineering, I was with M/s Siemens Ltd. as Executive Design Engineer in  
their Medical Division.

I am presently working on my thesis - " Artificial Neural Network Based
Feedback System for Optical Tracking". I have also implemented a microprocessor
based patient monitoring system as part of my undergraduate thesis. I have a 
lot of experience in programming and hardware development. 

Please find enclosed a plain text version of my resume. I can also forward a 
Latex version, if needed. I am willing to relocate and would like to meet
with your personnel to discuss as to how my education and experience will
be consistent with your needs. 

Thank you for your time and consideration. 

Sincerely,

N. Srinivasan.
