Statement of Purpose for Electronics

The opportunities in the electronics field expand rapidly as the world depends on technology more and more daily. From the moment that we wake up till the moment we arrive at school or work, we have used technology multiple times. All industries use technology in one way or another, coming all the way from automotive to landscaping. Every industry runs on electric and would need an electrician to repair the building or to construct a new project. Manufacturers operate on a daily basis, but cannot operate without electricity on the premises, thus creating new jobs for specialists in that field.

Today, the world is dominated by the field of electronics. Innovative ideas are coming into existence in our day to day life. Electronics plays a key role in the organization of any system under consideration. This trait of electronics extends into a broader scope. Thus, pursuing a career in the electronics field is my goal. Thus, Masters in Electrical Engineering with Electronics as the major is an apt choice to reach my goal.

broadening our horizons: The enhancement of one’s knowledge on certain topics due to the advancement of technology.

During those years in school, I started developing interest in technical field. The introduction of any advanced technology or the inventions

I as an electrical engineer pursuing my master in electrical and electronic engineering developed a skill to solve the problem. During my bachelors, I studied natural and physical science and basic fundamentals that are required in the engineering field and also gained vast knowledge how to identify and tackle new problem in the practical world.

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

As rightly said by Nikola Tesla, “We crave for new sensations but soon become indifferent to them. The wonders of yesterday are today common occurrences”. The sweeping changes in the Technological world with the advent of Electronics have made the role of electrical and electronics engineering a really indispensable one. My fascination for engineering was from an early stage though not a conscious one. It has been my deepest desire to be a part of this proliferating community. While my Bachelor’s degree has given me a well-rounded strong fundamental platform and exposure in the Electrical and Electronics field, I am keen to pursue Graduate education to advance my knowledge as well as contribute to specific areas in Electronics and advancements in technology. I thereby seek to pursue graduate studies in Electrical Engineering at University of Texas at Dallas.

I take this opportunity to introduce myself as a final year undergraduate student of Electrical and Electronics Engineering from SASTRA University, an elite university which is always among the top 50 engineering universities of India. As a child I enjoyed playing with hot wheels cars and grew up using remote controlled cars. I was always fascinated in understanding their mechanisms as I wanted them to go faster and faster. My interest for electronics had its first footing from these experiences. Electronics in particular interested me a lot with its presence in every aspect of our daily life. With interest in electronics, during high school years I constructed logic gates and started making small toys using batteries and motors. With such fascination for electronics I

My good grades in pre-university opened the doors to one of the most prestigious colleges in the country and one of the most sought after branches, Electrical and Electronics Engineering as my graduate stream seamlessly fit in. Every subject in this discipline intrigued me in its own way. My passion for science and technology grew with time as I learnt about the various facets of my field of specialization. In college, I always enjoyed long hours in the laboratories. It gave me the opportunity to correlate theory to practical phenomena. This in turn gave me a better understanding, insight of the subject and newer line of thinking. Very soon, I began to appreciate the advancements in the technology and took a keen interest in Robotics and Internet of Things. The course in Electrical and Electronics covered a wide panorama of

Since my school days, I was always curious about how automated gadgets and devices work. Various TV programs gave me some insight into the world of electronics. Vocational electronics course in my higher secondary education acquainted me to the basics of electronics. After starting my undergraduate course in electronics and tele-communication engineering, basic courses like ‘Basic Electronics Engineering’, ‘Solid State Devices and Circuits’ and ‘Digital Logic Design’ gave me a deeper understanding of the building blocks of electronics like diodes, transistors and ICs. Not only did these courses managed to partially sate this curiosity that I had since my childhood, but also inspired me to explore the world of electronics further.

The electrical and electronics engineering and its vast applications in my undergraduate studies impressed me. My special interest in EHVAC/DC Transmission made me to think in a different way and made me visualize drawbacks of power industry in India. My paper on “Problems of power sector in India” was published in the prestigious electrical journals. In the international electrical journals I was the only undergraduate student who submitted a

In addition, my undergraduate studies in the department of Electrical Engineering at the Mahavir Swami

T As an Electronic Engineering graduate, I studied in China 's cradle of technological talents. Years of systematic learning, Electronic Engineering has conquered me entirely. Consequently, I submit this document for the acceptance of your Doctor of Philosophy program. Now, I am ready to gain the further and more professional studies.

The structural layout of the Engineering Physics enabled the amalgamation of Physics and Electronics based courses which inadvertently rendered a limited expatiation on electronics based disciplines. This potential setback however sufficed to precipitate my interest in Electronics. With the initiation of our Minor project in digital communications under the mentorship of Dr Rishu Chaujar, Assistant Professor at Engineering Physics Department, I realised that I harboured a penchant towards investigation, design and development of electronic circuits primarily suited for communication and high speed based applications and an abated inclination towards encoding, decrypting or estimating codes and patterns.

During this time period I initiated many projects, the majority of which included mechanical inventions, electromechanical devices and explorations of electronics.
