Dear Sir/Madam,
I am writing to apply for the Erasmus Program for my third year in the Licence in Sociology (equivalent to the third year in Bachelor) . My first option is The University of Copenhaguen, in Denmark, in the Faculty of Social Sciences. Indeed I am really interested in Scandinavian Culture and language since several years

Moreover, I heard that The University of Copenhagen is the leading university in Denmark and has a vibrant and highly regarded sociology department, also strong in cultural studies.
This is my my favourite subject and the excellent courses the University provide meet my academic needs. Indeed I would wish to direct me towards a MASTER esthetics, arts and sociology of the culture Expertise and cultural mediation in Metz and the courses offered by department the of Social Sciences would be a good preparation for this formation.In the same way, I could open to me with other disciplines such as political sciences or look further into my knowledge in anthropology with for example a course .This year also should offer me the opportunity to discover another way of thinking and working and to try the particular Danish teaching system with small seminars organized with discussions and lectures.

Moreover, the fact that this skills are proposed at the university of Copenhagen is a chance for me. Indeed, since I started my studies I really wanted to spend one year abroad.
I am sure that It will allow me to broaden my perspective and contribute to my personal development by expanding my knowledge and widening my experience in a variety of academic disciplines. So, I consider it a challenge and an opportunity to explore and identify ways of improving myself and it certainly will enable me to open my mind. In the same way, this opportunity would be a means to improve my English and to learn another language at the same time.
Thank you for your attention
yours faithfully,
