To Whom It May Concern,
In the capacity of coordinator of PhD course Architectural Composition at Politecnico di Milano, I am
honoured to write this letter of reference on behalf of Ms Minja Marjanovic as I known her for 3 years
during her PhD studies as conscientious, diligent and gifted student.
During her studies she was attending course under my supervision (Architectural Design Seminar II)
which she passed with highest grades. She is a conscientious, studious and ambitious student, and her
interests don’t stop on obligatory reading and she is always interested in further debate. Because of her
high qualities and excellent academic capacities Ms Minja Marjanovic was elected and appointed as one
of my Teaching Assistants at Master studies on Studio Design Project 2 from September 2009 until
September 2011.
Ms Marjanovic is also very active in the alternative and supplementary educational activities, and I had a
pleasant opportunity to collaborate with Ms Marjanovic and to get additional insight into her academic
as well as organisational abilities.
In October 2009 she participated in a workshop New Docks of Milan. Railway dislocation and Urban
transformation lead by prof. Giovanni Cislaghi and me. In this occasion, she gave a great contribution to
the project development as a hardworking member of the team, by her continuously innovative ideas
and professional approach, useful comments and collaboration with other members.
Ms Minja Marjanovic is a very promising young architect, open-minded, responsible and highly
motivated to improve her knowledge. I am confident that her previous development, and enthusiasm,
which demonstrate her strong interest and dedication to studying and also her will for deepening her
knowledge, qualify her for any further academic and professional work in architecture.
Colleague Marjanovic was an outstanding PhD student and a colleague and I, as her professor and PhD
coordinator, I believe that it would be mutually beneficial for any creative and hardworking society to
have her as a high professional member.
Yours sincerely,
Prof. Arch. Marco S. Prusicki
