Statement of purpose

If there is a single theme, a leitmotif that resonates vibrantly and conspicuously through-out my life, it is my enduring passion for greater and greater achievements in academics. My undergraduate studies at Surya World College of engineering and technology affiliated to Punjab Technical University, India, were pivotal in introducing me to the various facets of Computer Science ranging from Object oriented programming to database management and varying subjects like Human Resource management and various programming languages. I always had a very keen interest in subjects related slightly to management, subjects like Business Intelligence and Digital Media, Human System Interaction as well as Mobile business and Technology have always attracted me. The syllabi in under graduation, afforded me the rigors of intellectual practice, even while giving me the latitude to discover their intricacies and practical applications of each and every topic that I encountered.

Apart from the basic computing subjects the topics that caught my interest were Engineering Mathematics, Data Structures, Database Management System and Operating Systems. I found them to be most intellectually stimulating and satisfying.

During my undergraduate days my brother was already working in information technology in a multinational company.

I delved myself deeply into those as they were mostly real life related applications and instigated more of for analytical approach. Thus, I resolved that, it is the field where I need to end up.

I have chosen to explore various technical aspects of engineering and ended up with practicing web development and building websites fo...

...ur reputation in Information Sciences and Technology. I look forward to pursue MS and further plan on pursuing PhD if situations permit. Specifically, Interacting with members of your group will give me an invaluable opportunity to broaden my horizons, and work in many research areas and explore various fields of computing and management that I cannot anticipate at this point of time.

Given my academics, I believe I am in a good position to be eligible to a part of your esteemed institution for MS in IST. I am aware of the kind of dedication, resilience and resolve that it calls for. I feel that I am adequately prepared, both in having the technical qualifications, and in having the right mind-set for learning and developing my other skills related to management. I look forward to a long and mutually beneficial relationship with Northern Illinois state university.
