803 Words2 Pages

My fascination with engineering began at a very early stage of my life.When i was a kid, I used to disassemble the toys to figure out how it worked rather than playing with it or putting them back together for that matter. My toys lasted me a day or two before they were in pieces, I was more interested and curious on how they worked. This passion led me to pursue a degree in Mechanical engineering in my college.
My true passion lies in using my skills to develop and design products and I've been doing that for some time now. My interest in the field mechanical engineering and the degree helped me develop the problem solving skills I use in my job every day. I don't just solve engineering problems, now I help solve problems across multiple …show more content…

I have a great compulsion towards practical industrial work environment. I started to realise all the potentials in these fields and I really enjoy learning industrial work as well as designing. For that very reason, I’m determined to focus myself on pursuing a post-graduation study.
Right from my school days I have shown interest in mathematics and physics, that boosted quantitative and analytical skills in me. This strength allowed me to secure 78.6% in 10th grade. I passed my senior secondary school with 70% in Physics and I gained an overall percentage of 67.4%. I have always felt a strong need for achievement, which has been the motivating force behind whatever I have achieved in my academic career.
During my undergraduate studies, I have not restricted myself to a particular area of Mechanical Engineering. I have secured a GPA of 9 out of a scale of 10 in the field of Engineering Graphics.The undergraduate study has given me a comprehensive exposure to a wide spectrum of courses. Also, my keen interest to stay well-informed with the evolving methods of designing has helped me in gaining an appreciation for languages such as AutoCAD, Catia ,Unigraphics and ProE. I strongly believe that a thorough knowledge of computers is essential for any engineer to be
