My interest in one of the most celebrated majors in college, Computer Science, traces back to the time when computers emerged as a revolutionary tool. I have always had a fascination towards them. I have come to realize that they form the integral part in the face of quotidian reality. This empowered me with an inquisitive look and helped me probe into the technology which, now, faces constant development. Mankind has advanced its realms to such an unimaginable level that one can say it has intensified the laziness in him. This creativity is the prime purpose for my fascination towards the course.
I learnt the basics of programming during my school days. My mentor gave us stipulated time and guidance to work out the logic of the programs independently. This resulted in deep etching of the effort taken then and has given me a solid foundation of the concepts learnt. Since I felt committed to the field, I elected it as my undergraduate course. I secured a seat in one of Anna University colleges through merit. I chose Computer Science and Engineering as my specialization and obtained 86%. We had equal emphasis on theory and practical sessions. However, our course work focused mainly on the long-established syllabus and newer renovation in technology that happens every year was overlooked upon. The urge to explore the subjects in greater aspect has goaded me to pursue graduation. An extensive study will prove beneficial to me.
My final year project, Re-ranking images using Multiscale Visual Saliency Mode, is based on two techniques – Visual Saliency and Relevancy. From users’ point of view, salient images are rather selected in an image search than the cluttered ones in low-level vision. They are grouped based on color, texture, edg...

Being
Computer science and programming as a whole has helped shape the world already, impacting education, trade, economics, communication and other aspects of our day to day lives. The rise in technology is inevitable and this is what makes computer programming a hugely appealing subject to
The world of technology has always intrigued me, from the operation of microprocessors to the complex programming behind hardware and software. My desire to understand how these function has led to my intention to undertake a course in Computer Science, and I have taken every available opportunity through school and college to further my knowledge in the subject.
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.
Computer Science is many things: engineering, math, science, art. The field is diverse; from coding robots who can map the bottoms of oceans to animating digital characters for Disney’s next film, computing has immersed itself in virtually every area and concentration of career. The idea of computing itself exists in both the physical and theoretical world, requiring abstract and concrete thinking to fully understand it. But what exactly makes computer science what it is? What specifically makes an profession that has been around for less than a century one of the most integral parts of modern society? The discipline’s definitions, though varied, exemplify how computer science has evolved from an obscure discovery in the 1940s to a now prominent
I took up Computer Science and Engineering as my discipline in Bhoj Reddy Engineering College for Women affiliated to Jawaharlal Nehru Technological University, one of the premier institutes in India. My undergraduate education has been a great learning and enriching process for me. It exposed me to all the core areas of Computer Science like operating systems, database management systems, networks and network security, data structures, algorithms and software engineering. These courses have given me a good foundation in the core concepts. My interest lies in Database Management, Programming Languages, Theory of Computation, and Software Engineering. I am fully acquainted with the fast growing subjects like Object Oriented Programming, Analysis and Design. On the other hand, the intensive laboratory classes exposed me to a fascinating world of experimentation. It was here that I discovered the qualities of perseverance and diligence in myself. I feel that these courses have done a lot to prepare me for my future studies and research work.

Computers and Technology have fascinated me right from my childhood and I have always had it in my mind to choose Information Technology for my engineering. As the years passed my eagerness grew and so did my thirst to attain higher education and now is the perfect time for me to ignite the spark in me. This has given me the courage to analyze the fact that I have a herculean task ahead in order to comprehend an extensive proportion of subject and enjoy it while assimilating the problems.
My strong curiosity towards the field of Cybersecurity dates back to my pre-university days when I started reading sci-fi novels. Digital Fortress, a techno-thriller novel written by Dan Brown, explored the theme of government surveillance, security and civil liberties. This theme is brought out in the book by portraying cryptographic techniques, security policies and implications of these policies. This gravitated me towards the field of security. With little programming experience, I was eager to begin my nascent adventure in the field of Cybersecurity. Although I’ve gained exposure in the field of security during the course of my Bachelor’s degree, I believe pursuing a master’s degree in Cybersecurity will allow me to explore the field of security in greater depth and utilize it effectively to address more real-world challenges.
My extra-curricular experience has enhanced my written, oral and interpersonal communication skills, while providing opportunities for leadership and self-motivation.
