Statement of purpose

In recent times, there is a revolutionary proliferation of computers in almost every industry. The technology’s blitzkrieg surge penetrated into all domains like Business, Industry, Education, Telecommunications, Medical, Entertainment and in the domestic front. This evolution of computer was more imminent in my environment while I was growing up. I have had an opportunity to work on different projects related to web technologies, mobile technologies and healthcare solutions. My undergraduate study helped me gain a comprehensive knowledge about different facets of software engineering. I wish to pursue my graduate studies in software engineering as an initial step to lay a solid platform to embark on my long-term research interest.
Throughout my undergraduate study, I was interested in learning new technologies. While doing projects, it helped me as I could use the technology which supported in efficiently solving the problem at hand. I did a project that involved developing a web portal to evaluate the code written by the students. I used the web services of a code evaluating site called “ideone.com”. The project helped me understand the concepts of Java, web services and databases. I have built an organization management visual tool for a hospital infrastructure which had an interactive drag and drop interface. Going further, with a team of four, I participated in a national level programming competition conducted by Software Technological Parks of India and Indian Maritime University where I got a chance to implement my C# skills in solving fictional maritime issues. We stood second in that competition.
It was in the beginning of my third year of undergraduate study, I got a chance to associate with an international community ...
