I gained in-depth awareness of concepts in calculus and analysis through multiple courses in Applied Mathematics. In addition, the courses in Data Structures and Algorithms introduced me to different techniques for conducting searches, sorting, as well as using clustering, classification and regression algorithms. Furthermore, the subjects related to database management helped me gain knowledge about the steps involved in the storage and retrieval of large amount of data and normalizing it. During the tenure of my undergraduate studies, I gained significant skills in programming with C, C++, Java and Mat Lab. In my last year project, I built an Email Spam Detection Application in Java. I used Logistic Regression to identify whether an incoming email is a spam or not by comparing the words in the mail with the Spam Vocabulary, we have provided and by counting how many times a particular word appears in an
Playing games on my father's computer as a child fascinated me in the way the computer works, how fast it develops, and now how the computer helps the world to communicate. It still amazes me in how fast computers change and how communication across the globe is enhanced with the computer. Computers have drastically changed how society lives and does business. Even small businesses can do global sales without leaving their location. With new strategies for business, comes cyber threats of identity theft and theft of intellectual property that brings information technology security and new laws into play. It is becoming a fast and ever challenging world. Computer science enables the ability to program software for protection against these kinds of threats and vulnerabilities. It also enables the ability to program artificial intelligence into the computer system software to enable society to meet their needs in more appropriate ways.
My story with computer science began since I had graduated from the preparatory classes after two years of intense undergraduate studies in mathematics and physics, I had the choice from a wide range of engineering schools in different fields, I chose computer science for two main reasons, the first one is that I was amazed by the stories of Steve Jobs, Mark Zuckerberg, Bill Gates.. And inspired by those guys that were in the university, and with no money just with a computer start a superstar company that rattles the lives of millions around the globe. And the second reason is my love of mathematics and logics, because I think that The development of computer science is basically mathematical. For programming language, you need automata theory and computation theory to understand it. In data analysis and machine learning, the state of art techniques is dominated by statistical learning theory.
Growing up in the information age, everybody in my generation is influenced by computers. Not merely regarding computers as a toy or tool in my childhood, I was curious about the computer itself - how it works and what it can do for me. The first time I used programming was in primary school. Not printing “Hello, world” like others, I was able to draw pictures and even create games using Logo programming language. The charm of programming is very attractive to me. While in high school I participated in the National Olympiad in Informatics in Provinces (NOIP) and trained every day solving over 300 questions in total. Through unrelenting efforts, I was awarded first prize three times. Because of this experience I laid a solid foundation for my algorithm skills and it has taught me to always solve problems in a comprehensive way. Eventually, I was recommended for admission to the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) because of my specialty in programming and superior academic skills.

My strong passion towards computers originated at the age of 7, when a desktop version was first brought home. Though punching on the keyboard keys and swinging the mouse around was all I could do then, computers and its functionality always remained to be much of an enigma to me. As years went by, I wasn’t surprised when I realized how eager I was to learn its functionality and architecture. This pushed me to utilize all the Computer Science classes in my school and then slowly with time and with both theoretical and practical knowledge I grasped at school, my relationship with computer and its technology improved. It was then, that an unending zeal towards the subject built up within me.
The curriculum was comprehensive and meticulously designed. It is a four-year course, which includes exhaustive study of all possible specialties of Computer Engineering. I like the fact that this course is the right mix of theory and practice. Here, academics have been supplemented with State and National level technical conferences, guest lecture series by eminent academicians, industrialists & students’
I am lucky. My fascination with computer began at an early age, ever since the time I got my first desktop, true it began with playing several computer games at first. But then as time went by and I moved to high school, I got allured by the computer science concepts and fundamentals that elucidated the workings of a computer.
These golden words said by an American Entrepreneur, Jim Rohn, perfectly second my decision to pursue MS in Computer Science. It is by working over two years in a reputed firm as a Strategy and Business development, I have rediscovered my passion for MS in Computer Science and decided to groom myself as an IT Software Specialist. Hence, I wish to take the path of academics and research in order to sharpen my skills, deepen my acumen on the subject and meet my objectives. This course is actually close to my expectations and interests. Computer Science has always been my passion and obsession since my childhood. I’m very passionate towards computers and gaming and I used to solve puzzle, so I choose Computer Science in my undergraduate and later in college I was introduced to programming languages and from then passion towards the Computer related work became very strong. I think one of my most distinguishing characteristics, which set me apart from the rest, is the diversity of experiences I possess. I am a person with a technical aptitude and a keen interest in self development.
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 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.
