I have attained sound knowledge in the areas of Computing through the well-structured syllabus along with a practical experience in labs and workshops. Enthused to apply it to practice, I have joined a premium society of computer professionals, Computer Society of India and have researched on the trending technologies.

It is universally agreeable that with the advent of Computer technology, every ambitious and enthusiastic individual is really obsessed with the idea of doing computer science at graduate level because it seems to have created a zeal and enthusiasm in the hearts of youth, particularly those who aspire to be marked as high achievers. I, for one, seem to have been enchanted by these computer applications as they have made the world smaller, speaking in terms of globalization. I have no hesitation to add that core computerization alone is the suitable answer to all the areas unexploited and to the areas waiting for development. It has always been a fascination for me about how computers work, how these applications are designed and what can be the newer ways to explore the world of computers to make our world better. This interest became a passion for me when I was exposed to computer science basics, during my middle school. Pursuing computer science engineering at undergraduate level, further propelled my passion for computer science along with providing me a deeper insight and in-depth understanding of the subject. After completing my under graduation in Computer Science, I am willing to expedite my research interest and a masters degree seemed the most appropriate choice for realizing my aspirations.

My Engineering course provided a strong foundation to my analytical skills. After graduation, I joined a leading IT firm, Satyam Computers Ltd where I was opened to an interesting world of technology and corporate functioning. Owing to my analytical abilities along with my leadership and decision-making skills, role was instrumental in rectifying many problems in production cycle in real time and that too without causing any system violations for which I got appreciated both by offshore managers and client.

"Let me tell you the secret that has led me to my goal; my strength lies solely in my tenacity"

The precision and certainty of Mathematics and Science always compelled me to spend comparatively more time on those subjects throughout my career. I have always been an avid reader of day to day updates of the scientific world. My interest in Mathematics and Physical sciences prompted me to join in pre-university course with Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry as core subjects. I was always mesmerized by the computer. My constant thirst for knowledge of how the computer functions and the components of the computer inspired me to multiply the little knowledge I had, with the never ending zeal I possessed at that time, it was a very herculean task for me in the beginning, but as time passed by, the task was made clear.This desire coupled with wisdom gained by then, drove me to opt for undergraduate course in Computer Science and Engineering. While I was pursuing my studies, my interest in Technology subjects kindled me to learn more about it and during my professional career, I have realized the importance of Information Technology and Management. My aspiration to work as Technology Consultant and my urge to garner knowledge on how to best utilize Information Technology in business firms to improve productivity margins and profits by enabling rationale of change in an enterprise

Albert Einstein once said that “The most beautiful experience we can have is the mysterious –the fundamental emotion which stands at the cradle of true art and true science”. This is the feeling I experienced when I had started observing and analyzing things around me as a kid. Every query answered urged me to know more and to broaden my horizons-the first steps perhaps towards research.

My four years of undergraduate studies in CS at PSG College of Technology, Coimbatore and my exposure and penchant for research have made the choice of further study, for me, an obvious one. My goal is to pursue a career in research, either in industry or in academia. Ten years from now, I envisage myself as a full-fledged research professional in an organization, or a faculty member at one of the leading universities. The first step towards my objective would be to pursue Masters Program in Computer Science. My ultimate degree objective would however be a Ph.D.

My inclination to see logic helped me code right from high school. I still remember the “Computer Applications” course that I took, where despite learning very basic Java, I could write snippet programs. I was fascinated with loops and arrays and was surprised how easily I could learn to apply logic and get the required output.

It had really intrigued me to see how computing has revolutionized many spheres of life- from a simple accounting software and smartphone applications to complex system analysis in space exploration. All these advances aroused my curiosity to explore the opportunities which ultimately led me to select Information Technology as my major for Graduation at National Institute of Technology (NIT), Durgapur, a premier engineering school in India. During the four years of my undergraduate course, I gained an in-depth knowledge of the core areas of Computer science and built a good mathematical base.
