Statement of Purpose
My research interests stem from the fact that engineering mechanisms and concepts have always fascinated me and urged me to explore the mechanical world. Every part of this technology rich world is made up of elements which come under the roof of mechanical engineering. My intent has been clear right from my first year of under graduation and it was to do research and specialise in the field of automotive engineering. My first leap towards this goal was my preference to do mechanical engineering in one of India’s top rated private universities. It awes me when I see engineers with grease all over the body, though for many it may seem weird. The reason behind opting for mechanical engineering during my under graduation is that it is the base for various other engineering like Aeronautical, manufacturing, Automotive, etc. and it will help me widen my horizon. So after my under graduation I would like to pursue my masters in Mechanical Engineering at your esteemed institution which is well known for its mechanical engineering program.
The aspiration to do Masters in Engineering is because of my passion towards engineering and my inspirational parents. They taught me that hard work is the shibboleth for success and let me live my life in my own way. They support and guide me in every walk of life and encourage me to pursue what I want.
My under graduation in Mechanical Engineering enlightened me with various important concepts from Thermodynamics, Fluid Mechanics, IC engines, Design Of Transmission Systems and Manufacturing Technology. These subjects persuaded me to analyse concepts in the real world and its applications. IC Engines became one of my favourite subjects and indeed my liking for automobiles mult...

...ce to research. I would also feel proud and blessed if I get a chance to work under Professor Ahmet Selamet who is known for his interests in Internal Combustion Engines, Combustion and Heat Transfer. His current experimental studies to understand the unsteady physics in induction and emission systems and to improve engine performance have inspired me to work under him. With the University’s Centre for Automotive Research, it gives me immense confidence and pleasure to say that being a part of the MS Mechanical Engineering program can fulfill my dreams and ambitions. The Flow, Engine & Acoustics Research laboratory and Gear & Power Transmission Laboratory are a real boon for students with interests as mine. I am confident that my research interests in IC engines and Thermal sciences would complement the university’s research areas related to propulsion systems.
