Life for the past 21 years has thought me to practice and appreciate the art of learning. I question myself looking at every electronic gadget on “how is it made?” and “how does it work?” thus instigating an insatiable hunger inside me. This fascination for electronic gadgets prompted me to choose Computer Engineering as the major for my Bachelor’s Degree. On the academic front, my teachers were the main guiding force in identifying my penchant for mathematics and science and harnessed it to lay a strong foundation.
During the course of my undergraduate program, my brief stint as an in-plant trainee in Nuclear Power Corporation of India Limited, Kudamkulam gave me an industrial exposure apart academic proficiency where I learnt the basics of Computer and wireless networking. This broadened my understanding of various switched networks, routing protocols and significance of connection less and connection oriented communications.
Through my college, I also went to the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) which was an enriching experience. It was highly motivating and made me think outside the textbooks and learn practical execution of engineering concepts. This was my first encounter which taught me how a creative and innovative idea's could transform fundamental features into powerful tools.
Attaining significant expertise in C, C++ and Java helped me set a firm grasp on my trajectory. In eagerness to equip myself in the subject, I attended various workshops and did a mini-project to realize my understanding. Being a member of IEEE digital library, I skimmed through many journals and publications which helped me a lot in working on my research project and papers. I realized that Engineering can be even more appealing once...

A world-class engineering student, also known as an “expert learner,” is characterized by taking charge of their learning process, being active in their approach to learning, being motivated and disciplined as well as setting specific goals for themself. Becoming a world-class engineering student is a process that takes time and diligence. In order to become a world-class engineering student, I will have to identify where I stand currently in terms of goal setting, community building, academic development and personal development, where a world-class engineering student would be in each of those areas, and what I have to do in order to become a world-class engineering student.
Growing up in the late 90’s, I witnessed computers revolutionize India – we had cellphones and personal computers and the internet transforming our lives - and like most other kids, I was fascinated by them. It wasn’t until I took course on QBasic in 8th grade, however, that I really took a liking to computer programming. The idea of computer ‘languages’ seemed almost magical to me. Over the years, that proclivity for programming grew into a passion and led me to take more programming electives in higher grades. I also took the initiative to set up a student-run Computer Club in my high school and host our first annual Computer Symposium. My upbringing in Delhi also made me aware of the gaping inequalities of wealth distribution in our society and as my interest in Computer Science deepened, it only reinforced my belief that lean-technologies can help governments of developing countries in bringing their policies to the altar of execution more efficiently.
I feel that graduate study at your university will give me credentials to secure challenging assignments and ability to meet the demands of those assignments.
A fascination for Science & Technology and keen interest in the ever-growing world of technology motivated me to take up engineering. The power of research and delivering it for the growth of Society is what makes me interested in the technology side of science. I choose to major Computer science Engineering with an intense urge to delve into this challenging field. During my under graduation program I learned the various fundamentals of Computer science Engineering which together with practical course works reinforced my interest.

This perfectly holds true for me in the world of Computer Engineering where novel ideas are not a novelty. It is this novelty that entices me to this field and gives me a deep sense of professional pride. In this context, I would like to pursue my graduation in Computer Engineering, which not only supplements the knowledge that I possess but also provides a strong platform for my future career goals.
On joining the college, I concentrated on acquiring knowledge not only through the classroom teaching materials, but also through the volumes of Computer related materials. In the process I have acquired in-depth knowledge in the fields of Database Management Systems, Data Mining and Data Warehousing, Software Engineering especially in the concepts related to process organization and responsibilities. I was also fascinated by the growth of Networking and Communication Technology and developed keen interest in the subjects such as Computer Networks, Data Communications and Network Protocols. The Operating systems lab and Computer Networks lab unleashed a relentless desire in me to excel at its usage and find innovative applications.
An ambition to learn and grow and having passion for engineering have prompted me to go in for graduate studies. Chasing my Dreams! While growing up at a young age I was always intrigued by objects that produced mechanical work and energy be it prime movers such as automobiles, construction and mining equipment, turbo machinery such as jet engines, space shuttles or complex mechanisms of mechanical watches, I used to spend a lot of time trying to learn and figure out their basis and propositions, it was necessary for me to explore my inner conscience to understand my fascination towards machines and their ingenuity, Mechanical engineering seemed a direct consequence of my convictions. I have always admired my father as a civil engineer and his hard work and struggles throughout his life; He has always been a role model for me. He motivated me to pursue my dreams so I decided to pursue my undergraduate study in Mechanical Engineering
From my perspective, excellent electronic engineers are a group of gifted and imaginative talents who bravely explore and innovate, change the world with passion and innovation. I have always dreamed of becoming one of them. For realizing this dream, I started from China 's Jilin University and then joined The University of Manchester for BEng (Hons) Electronic Engineering to take more advanced professional courses. In UoM, I managed to gain GPA of 4.0. Yet, my pursuit of the dream does not end there, since I plan to apply for M.S. program in Electrical and Computer Engineering in the Carnegie Mellon University, where I can receive the best education among the world.
People travel miles in search of their true passion; some find them early in their life and I consider myself lucky enough to be one among them. I found my true calling at the age of 12 on a field trip to a milk factory. It seemed like the Disneyland of science with huge machineries, conveyer belts running all around, and instruments working about in their own rhythm with sheer intricacies and perfection. As a kid, I was eager to understand the mechanics behind this magical rhythm. The desire of gaining in-depth knowledge about Control System and Automation eventually led me to choose Electronics and Instrumentation Engineering as my undergraduate study.
My first major step towards my goal was getting through the most competitive engineering entrance exam the All India Engineering Entrance Examination. Having cleared it successfully paved the way for me into one of the most coveted Universities of India, Amity University. I started my journey of Mechanical Engineering with alacrity. The most striking incident of my freshman year was attending a technical workshop on Autocad, delivered by Appin Technology Labs. The workshop was not only an enthralling experience for me personally but sharpened my technical skills too. It enhanced my knowledge about design and at the same time widened my idea of how a good design can enhance the agility and strength of a mechanical body.
At the dawn of the information age, to be young, as Wordsworth said in another context, is very heaven. Getting to know what goes inside computers, the engines of the Information Technology revolution, and knowing how to work with them enables one to understand the technology that makes it all possible. Understanding this, I chose to do my undergraduate study in Electronics and Communications engineering.
