"Everyone has an idea. But it 's really about executing the idea and attracting other people to help you work on the idea." - Dorsey.
I am passionate about the ideas stuck in my head and dream to give them a shape by doing further research and study in related fields, which makes me ‘a student to the end of my days’: the obvious direction being curiosity towards exploration.
Academic Background:
Fortunately, I had a good early education and as I grew, my interests and ability were inclined towards the physical nature of the universe. Science unravelled many a mystery for me; math challenged me and gave me joy. Learning became part to my life.
My propensity towards applied science drove me to opt for math, physics, biology and chemistry

Among 107 students in my department I ranked 5th, with CGPA = 8 out of 10. I received merit scholarships for two consecutive years. I took many quantitative and computing courses throughout my degree path, including Engineering Mathematics (M101), Statistics and the theory of Problems (M201), Introduction to Analysis (M301), Complex Analysis and Numerical Analysis (M401), Introduction to computing and algorithms (CE201) and Computing practice & database (CE203). My performance in mathematical and programming courses was excellent (98 …show more content…
But at the end of the day, any corporate job is about delivery excellence and the time for going deep in the subject is lacking. Jack Ma once said: “Sooner or later you 'll regret it if you spend all your time at work”. I too believe, it’s not 9 to 5 when greatest things in our life happen but the real changes in our life come from what we do from 5 to 9, after office. So I started my bit of work & research in information science, data and business analytics space two years back. I joined various MOOC and certification programs from Coursera, Data Camp, Khan Academy and Udemy. Through these programs, I learnt some exciting techniques like Decision tree, Regression analysis, Linear regression, Time Series, Neural Networks and technologies like Hadoop, Big-Data etc. I took a special interest in learning R as it is widely used in
I would continually ponder over questions on the mechanics of nature and human beings. Science has always been a main focus of mine. I distinctly remember when my parents bought our first computer when I was six years old. On the computer I would always be watching videos or reading on science topics. I would always be conducting my own science experiments. The reaction from mixing baking soda with vinegar to form a volcano would always amaze me as a child. Growing up I would continually and consistently add to my knowledge of science through the tough courses I would take in school. I am able to look back into the memories of my younger self and understand why baking soda and vinegar, when mixed, form an eruption. I show a heavy interest in science because of how it applies to the real world and how nearly every question about the universe we live in could be answered b science
I've always loved learning, especially math. Math has always come easy to me. Science also has never been challenging enough so I took Chemistry this year and I am planning to take physics next years. Chemistry is very challenging for me and I've had thoughts of dropping out of it, but I pushed myself and forced myself not to give
tremendous growth. Early on in my college career, I took science courses as a part of my
I have always been a math-science oriented person, and until my sophomore year of high school, my primary interest was in biological sciences. However, as a student in the Pre-International Baccalaureate Program, I was required to enroll in the physics I class. Walking into the physics lab, I saw an energetic, eccentric woman in a room covered with posters of the periodic table and Alberta Einstein alongside those of Elvis Presley. I would never view physics in the same light again.
Although I was pretty good at science, my favorite subject was math. I was always the best in math and I loved the feeling of dissecting complex problems, and trying different methods and techniques to eventually get to the right answer. To me, math problems were like a puzzle and I had the tools to figure them out. Medicine is a lot like math in that every patient is the puzzle and it is the physician’s job to diagnose and figure out how to solve it.
I am confident and enthusiastic about my proposed interest areas and I believe I have the necessary skills and competence to become an asset to Stanford University. With my ability to self-learn, persevere and work hard, I am sure that I can face the university’s highly challenging environment. I am aware that to excel in the program, I would have to meet the high standards set by the university. I am confident that I can foster a symbiotic relationship with the university and its students. With this, I humbly ask for the golden opportunity to be admitted to Stanford University.
My passion for the fascinating wolrd of science literally can not be put into words. Since receiving my first home science kit at five years of age the way things work and why has always been at the forefront of my mind. During my early years I would find great delight in examining anything I could fit under the lens of my telescope. I will never forget my first look at the intricate detail of a human hair.
I have completed Bsc (Hons) Construction management at the University of West London, and I would now like to further my career by studying MSC Project enterprise and management at UCL. I have made this decision after understanding that this course will enable me to develop a broad understating of construction management of large and complex projects and increase my commercial awareness of these projects. I also expect this course to be taught with both academic rigour and place consistent emphasis on practical application of what I learn to construction environment. After working in construction for industry for almost 2 years, and studying a bachelor’s degree I feel I am more than capable of completing Msc Project Entriprise with success as I have already experienced the rigors & dynamics of university education.
My enthusiasm and the strongly committed teachers I have encountered in my life have attributed to my success in math and science. Prior to going onto ninth grade, my Math classes dating back from middle school were never mentally straining. Math appealed to me because in eighth grade, my math teacher, Dr. Christopher, would encourage her class by recognizing our achievements with small rewards such as candies and ice cream passes during lunch. Her actions sparked my interest in math. I have a natural regard for math and science. By breaking down math problems step by step, I can better understand them. ...
Electrical engineering is the major that I am pursuing during my college career. I decided to pursue this major because it is a career, which requires knowledge in other subjects, it is a career, which changes often, and everyday it provides a person with new problems to solve.
Starting off with my academic’s, I completed my schooling from Sacred Heart High School, Hyderabad, India. My school helped me develop better in the field of science, communication skills & Personality Development right from the initial stages, with different techno fests, science expos and an ample inter school and intra school competitions in both curricular & extracurricular activities .Academic wise ,I was always placed among the top three in the class . I have secured 88% marks in 10’Th standard and in m my favorite subject that’s Mathematics I secured 93% . Then I decided to take up Mathematics as my core subject for intermediate education and I took Mpc [Mathematics, Physics ,Chemistry].I secured valuable marks of 88% in my Board of Intermediate at
In high school, I was sort of a science wiz; most of my peers would rely on me for answers to the question on homework assignments. Science came natural to me; however, that wasn’t always my strongest subject. In fact, while I was in middle school, I hated science and could not understand anything about the subject. I also constantly achieved no higher than a 40 on my science quizzes in 5th ...
I am currently taking Maths, Chemistry and Biology to Advanced Higher, all of which are challenging and stimulating subjects. They have all influenced me in different ways and were integral in my decision to pursue a degree in Chemical Engineering. They have also helped me obtain a foundation of core skills and extended knowledge to hopefully prepare me undertaking my desired degree. There is no doubt that Maths and chemistry have helped fine tune and advance my problem solving skills and think in a more logical manner, all of which I believe to be essential for this degree.
I am applying for a Masters in Mechanical Engineering with a concentration in Solid Mechanics to expand on my study of and experience with materials. I have thoroughly enjoyed studying Materials Science and Engineering as an undergraduate at UCLA. I now look forward to moving into graduate study in a field of engineering with a related, but different perspective. Materials Science and Engineering has allowed me to explore both materials and other fields within engineering, contributing to my strong interest in combining my study of Materials Science and Engineering with Mechanical Engineering. I have completed basic coursework in most areas of engineering, learning statics, thermodynamics, basic programming, and circuit design. This has provided a strong foundation to continue graduate study in other engineering disciplines. I
