STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
The pursuit for knowledge has been the supreme goal in my life. We are in an era of global and
technological changes where boundaries are fast disappearing and the greatest challenge tomorrow holds for us is to manage continuity of change.
Science unraveled many a mystery for me; Math challenged me and gave me joy. Learning itself became key to my life. My respect for education and inclination towards applied science drove me to opt for math, physics and chemistry in my higher secondary education. After completing my high school, I felt that Engineering would be the area, which would give me the opportunity to learn and explore how the fundamentals of science are applied to create technology for practical and real purposes. Moreover, my innate strengths have always been creative abilities and the power of imagination; which made me take up a discipline that would allow me to channel them in the best possible way. Thus, Mechatronics engineering was a direct consequence of my convictions.
To satiate my curiosity and to fulfill my ambitions I have decided to pursue a master’s program in Manufacturing Engineering. I would like to get involved in course-work in this area. My undergraduate program was a judicious mix of theory and practice. Although there is a vast scope for practical skills in this area, the scope for the same in India is limited. The need for exposure to a wider environment has prompted me to seek an opportunity to study in the Australia. Subjects like Manufacturing Process, CAD/CAM, Metal cutting & Machine Tool Engineering, Machine Design, Automation and Robotics, Control Systems Engineering, Industrial Management, Kinematics & Dynamics of Machines, Automotive Engineering, Applied Thermodynamics etc. revealed to me limitless horizons in the field of Manufacturing Engineering.
To tell you more about my interest, the final year project design of speed box of drilling machine with 12 different speeds at output shaft which aims at incorporating few features of standard Design models, was an opportunity to gain knowledge of design applications in Manufacturing Engineering. The 4 years degree undergraduate course has not only provided me strong fundamentals, but also has encouraged me to learn more and goaded me to continue activities. My immediate career objective is a master’s degree in Manufacturing Engineering and then use my knowledge and skills in an industry.
The choice of a good university with a faculty dedicated to teaching and an atmosphere conducive to learning thus becomes extremely necessary. After going through your website I found that by taking post graduate studies at your university, I would be able to venture out into various subject domains and also develop a strong sense of independence coupled with responsibility and self-reliance, characteristic of the Australian culture. It would also help me to learn global standards in this field and become aware of the worldwide competition, which I consider would be a great help for me to make a strong contribution in the field of Manufacturing Engineering. Your university with its unique masters in engineering in manufacturing engineering and with its commitment to foster intellectual excellence is remarkable and attractive to embark upon an academic career.
I would be glad if given a internship in industry because in addition to easing the financial burden on me, it would go a long way in preparing me for a good career.
I look forward to a challenging career which may even be arduous and demanding at times but I am confident that with my sincerity and dedication, I will be able to make a meaningful contribution to the ongoing developments and live up to the high standards expected off your university.
Given an opportunity, I shall strive to channel my unbridled efforts into more productive avenues.
Thank You.
