Subject : Formal Introductory Letter Dear Prof. Brad Blackstone, My name is Muhammad Irsyad Bin Jumahat a year 1 student in mechanical design & manufacturing engineering. I graduated from Ngee Ann Polytechnic with a diploma in automation & mechatronic systems specialized in aerospace system. One of my communication strengths is my ability to efficiently demonstrate technical information to people who are unfamiliar in this field. I have had the opportunity to do this through various group projects in my coursework, where I was responsible for explaining the idea concepts to my teachers and classmate.

Effective communication is essential for success in the workforce, particularly in the field of engineering where professionals are often required to collaborate with colleagues, clients, and stakeholders on various projects. As an engineer, you may be responsible for planning and executing projects, which will require you to communicate with others to gather information and present ideas. In school, students are taught communication skills to prepare them for these demands in the workplace. Good communication can help ensure a smooth flow of work, prevent confusion and misunderstanding, and save time.

In the article, “Helloface Innovative Facemask” by University of Hertfordshire (2022), Introducing an innovative face mask that is both transparent, allowing for visibility, and functions like a typical mask. This mask is designed for individuals who are partially deaf and rely on lip reading. The inspiration for the "Helloface" mask came from this need. Based on the article “Helloface” is an innovative alternative to Type IIR EN14683 medical face masks made up of a 3-ply construction that prevents large particles from reaching patients. The "Helloface" mask is deemed safe for any application. It is particularly beneficial for individuals who are deaf or hard-of-hearing as they do not have to remove their mask to communicate.
