My Statement of Purpose for a Masters Course in Management of Information Systems

As Arthur C. Clarke said ‘Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic’, I am always fond of that magic and I never ceased to learn new things especially, computers. Its formidability and enigma urged me to take footsteps in the field of Computer Science, that is when I decided to pursue my graduation in Computer Science.

We are not short of hearing about the significance in creating goals, merely having a vision is enough to steer someone into a reality long imaged. Long before The Secret and vision boards, I read Gloria Steinman’s book, A Revolution Within. She postulates imagining meeting oneself in the future. I have visualized a young vibrant, powerful woman with a number pinned on her chest, her face chafed from the wind, triumphantly passing the finish line.

A passion to achieve expertise in Information Systems Management is the objectives to my Graduate Study. It would help hone my skills, earn proficiency and seek professional exposure. A graduate course would pave way to earning hands-on experience and acquire specialization in the desired field of study.

My true passion for engineering began when I came across the quote: "Technology are devices that make our lives better". Despite my first love of mathematics, my recent interest for engineering has come from two major influences. The first being my mathematics and physics teachers, both engineers by nature, who have helped me enhance the fundamental skills essential for engineering and embrace the importance of the field. The second being the learning about uses of technology in Computer Science, it taught me the magnitude of which technology contributes to our everyday lives has led me to intensify my desire to improve the lives of others.

I remember myself as a bright student throughout my schooling. I was well versed in both academic and extracurricular, especially in sports. My engineering was a bit of a different story. Over the four years of engineering, I learned subjects related to Power Systems, Electronics, Analog and Electronic Instrumentation, Microcontroller and Microprocessor, Control Systems, Electrical Machines. Etc. Laboratory sessions of these subjects helped me to accumulate consciousness of practical usage of electrical engineering. It gave me the opportunity to correlate theory to practical phenomena. This, in turn, gave me a better understanding of the subject and newer lines of thinking. The course in Electrical Engineering covered a wide panorama of subjects. I learned to program in C and MATLAB which were extremely helpful in my practical works. My ideas and knowledge of electrical engineering were first tested in the third year of engineering in the power electronics based project of ‘Pulse triggering circuit for triggering of SCR’. Besides that, I was always exposed to co-curricular activities like vocational training at transmission

I am very thankful for providing me this opportunity and it is with sincere sense of gratification that I pen down my brief statement of purpose. Striving for betterment and improvement has been my motto in all aspects of life and the same applies even to my professional and academic career. Getting to know what goes inside computers, the engines of the Information Technology revolution and knowing how to work with them enables one to understand the technology that makes it all possible. Understanding this, I chose to do my undergraduate study in Information Technology. While reasoning my intentions to pursue MS in Computer Science at your esteemed university, I would like to throw some light on my career till now.

The fact that there are so many engineers in my family, had inspired me to take up electrical engineering. Right from childhood I was very engrossed in finding out alternative solutions to real life problems. Gradually, I started building interest in the logic behind the working

This epistle gives me a unique opportunity to pen down my ambition and my Statement of Purpose. Let me begin by saying that I wish to pursue my masters in Management Information Systems .

As being a part of a rapidly changing and burgeoning society where everything is mechanized, I Murali Ravikumar, find myself in a transitional surrounding where the things which were once operated manually when I was a child ,to a completely automated state through the course of time and yet it still continues to grow simultaneously as we grow old. From my childhood, I used to admire how things work and as I grew, I began to wonder that how things are manufactured. When I was 10, As quoted from my dad " I used to play with toy cars which was a remote control one and I would stay watching it for hours, Like kind of being dazzled by its working". I used to make sketches of cars since it's the only thing I liked to play with, and it became my favourite. My dad used to take me to his workplace quite often, which had plenty of textile based machineries and I used to watch them working. As an admirer of working of things, I tried to disassemble and assemble my PC which I accidentally broke. Since I have a craving towards" How stuffs work?", It was clear that my field of study should be in engineering and that too in production &industrial stream because everything in

of the quality of education that is available, and this has especially motivated me to pursue a

On my first day of Engineering life, the lecture of Basic Electrical Engineering was something that generated keen interest in my heart about this core field. Electrical being mother of different branches of Engineering I could learn even Electronics and Programming based subjects parallel to our field. I have always been fully focused in learning my subjects and completing assignments and all of that

Technology in every form has always been something that I have craved for. As a student in high school I was always fond of computers, televisions, cell-phones. The circuitry involved to build them has fascinated me by the mechanism that was involved in creating the wondrous electronic gadgets. I want to be at the forefront of technology and I want to work at something exciting that would help others. The growing desire to excel in the field of Electrical and Electronics engineering, fuelled with my inquisitive nature and my logical approach, helped me to build a strong foundation in engineering. I now anticipate myself, contributing significantly and leaving a mark in the field of Electrical and Electronics Engineering.

I completed my bachelor’s degree in Electronics and Communication Engineering from Anna University, a premier University in India.

Over the years, my interest in the fashion industry has evolved along with my understanding and through my studies, personal experience and personal research. I have decided that a career in International Fashion Marketing is a perfect fit for me. The highly rated International Fashion Marketing course at Caledonian University will give me the necessary tools to turn my career ambitions into reality. I am especially excited that this course was designed with the industry consultation and combines real world business scenarios along with academic theory. The four week work placement in the second semester will be an invaluable opportunity to apply skill-sets learnt and a perfect enter way into a career in Fashion Marketing.
