STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
Pain is temporary; Quitting lasts forever.
- Lance Armstrong
"Anything is possible. You can be told that you have a 90 percent chance or a 50 percent chance or a 1 percent chance, but you have to believe, and you have to fight." This quote by Lance Armstrong has been my inspiration through most difficult parts of my life. Computer Science has always been my passion since the time I used to play with computer games as a child and fiddle with the CPU parts. Vision and drive are two qualities that are fundamental to an innovator’s success. Master of Information Management and Systems is a specialized form of database management and engineer- ing. It is this field that will help me widen my breadth of knowledge beyond a specific technical field, into management and database.

Later, I joined the prestigious VIT University, and instinctively realized that the most important arrow in my quiver would be my Bachelor’s degree in Electronics and communication. Through the course of my undergraduate degree, I was exposed to subjects such as Data Structures, Algorithms, Databases and Operating Systems. So I picked up the threads and steadily worked my way up the academic ladder, focusing on coursework while also exploring my abilities in as many fields as possible. My intention to pursue my higher studies in USA comes from my faith in the American system of education which is famous for its world-wide commitment to excellence. The exposure one gets as an international student in the USA will help him to enrich his life both personally and

Yesterday’s technology is obsolete today. I have always wanted to attain the highest level of excellence in education and transcend new horizons in the chosen field. Motivated by an adage “Zeal without knowledge is a fire without light” I have always tried to aim at pinnacle. I know it’s awesome but still it is the point to aim “Failure is not a mistake, but a choice”, my parents said to me in my formative years. It is from them, I learnt the basic principles of interdependence.
Learning is a continuous process and the day that you stop learning is the day that you start decreasing your rewards and lower levels of satisfaction. My ardent desire to acquire knowledge has motivated me to pursue higher studies at graduate level, and to take up a career in research in industry. I have taken this decision after carefully considering my academic background, profound interest in research and strong aptitude for problem solving.
Introduction The US educational system ranks as one of the best and most popular in the world, it is a well-known fact that more than half of the best universities in the world are located in the US according to the QS world University rankings. Although having an educational experience that is enjoyable is guaranteed in US but the cost is usually at the top of everyone’s list and a major source of concern to prospective students, it is one of the major constraining factor to most international students who desire to study in US. Studying in USA is made easier by the availability of Universities with scholarships for International Students which offers unique opportunities of learning to international students.
“Constant efforts, dedication, devotion and determination are the key to success” This principle I have followed in my career. Setting goals and striving hard to accomplish them has always been my strength in professional as well as personal life. I have always been amazed by computers, code –programs and was keen to understand the underlying meaning, gimmick, structure and pattern of how programs actually work. Learning about simple Foxpro programs, excel sheet formulae, C programs at an early age heightened my interest in computer programs. This childhood interest urged me to do a diploma in information technology and later bachelor’s degree in the same area. Having completed six years course in Information Technology, and two years of experience in IT. I stand by the principal “Stay Hungry” and this has helped me in achieving my goals. Standing by this I would like to explore ahead and pursue MS in MIS. I would like emerge to put to use this knowledge to pursue MS program in MIS.
I wanted to continue my career abroad. Therefore, I made a detailed research and ended up going to the United States because of its worldwide reputation in academics. My initial research showed me that Southern part of United States would be most education friendly due to social, climate and financial reasons. Besides, a field like Public Administration requires one to be involved in a more diverse environment as it is any government’s job to provide service to its citizens from diverse background. Grambling State University, with its diverse environment and friendly atmosphere was the most suitable one. Due to this reason, after completing the English as Second Language Program of ELS center in Ruston, I applied to Grambling State University. At the beginning I was required to take some undergraduate level classes to improve my knowledge and skills. I have successfully completed fifteen cou...

The American higher education system has always been deemed as the best in the world. Statistics consistently show that most Nobel winners received higher education in America and a majority of international students choose America as their dream county to study abroad. The standard of higher education in America is unique and unparalleled in many ways. However, it’s always hard to live up to a great reputation. The system suffers from deficits in many respects.
I would regard my admission to your esteemed University not only as a great honour but also as a great responsibility and challenge to prove myself.

Yet, my pursuit of the dream does not end there, since I plan to apply for M.S. program in Electrical and Computer Engineering in the Carnegie Mellon University, where I can receive the best education among the world.
During the past several years, I have developed some unique skills and education in India. Although I am sure that I will obtain an excellent education at the University of Northeastern, I will bring my own skills, education and culture to your program. I am prepared to face the rigors and demands of a graduate program at the University of Northeastern. At the same time, I believe that I will have a unique cultural experience in the United States and get a chance to meet people from other parts of the world. I am sure that with dedication and hard work, man can achieve the unthinkable and cross the toughest of hurdles. With this spirit, I intend to carry on with my further education at the University of Northeastern.
