What Is The Statement Of Purpose For Mechanical Engineering

“Engineers make things, but industrial engineers make things perfect”, and embedded in my heart is a deep desire to achieve perfection. I not only wish to contribute to the field of engineering, but also wish to do it as efficiently, economically and orderly as possible. In my frequent visits to my father’s fabrication unit, I noticed two kinds of people- ones on the shop floor operating the machines and others who worked on operating these machines efficiently by optimising the various processes involved. The latter invoked something in me. I was fascinated at the way they derived optimal solutions by a thorough understanding of the production systems. That made me want to pursue Production Engineering as my undergraduate major and I got into the Government College of Technology, Coimbatore- an institute with a good repute.

Mechanical engineering is the catalyst of rapid innovation in the aerospace and defense, automotive, heavy equipment and industrial equipment manufacturing industries. The foundational elements of mechanical engineering are what make the pace of new product development possible (Bar-Cohen, 1995). By far the most significant accomplishment of humankind in the 21rst century is the landing of the rover on the surface of Mars (Thilmany, 2012). It is the epitome of accomplishment between mechanical engineering, which si the discipline used to create the device, and software, which is powering it. Management Information Systems concepts keep the Mars rover working every day, even though it is literally 200 million miles away. The core concepts of mechanical engineering all contributed to this remarkable accomplishment. When I see these accomplishments I want to continually set higher goals for my education in mechanical engineering.

In this letter of intent, I am going to focus on the purpose of studying Industrial Engineering further at the post-graduate level. I have chosen University name because I feel it will best prepare me to fulfill my future career objectives. I jot down my Statement of Purpose with due respect to the Department and the University.

For instance, I undertook rigorous training within group projects in the course of Precision Machine design, and it helped me lay a solid foundation for machine design techniques, like tolerance design, layout design, and selection of machine elements. To meet the strength requirement, I also applied mechanics knowledge to carry out the stress-strain analysis of axle and attach great importance to machine component arrangement for minimizing avoidable loads. With these prerequisite training, my group even designed a plate-flipping machine, with all the details carried out, for example, gear reducer, linkage mechanism and detail drawings; furthermore, aside from fully understanding the physical properties of the mechanical system, I feel particularly satisfied in combining theory with computer-aided software for solving engineering problems. Specifically, I learned to utilize numerical method with Matlab for calculation of complex problems through the course Heat Transfer and Computer-Aided Engineering. As the mechanical system will be more complex in the future, it propels me to persist in learning more advanced theoretical knowledge and computer-aided engineering techniques to strengthen my ability to design an ideal

Technology is driven by need. Inventors often have an uncanny skill of resolving situations with their innovations. But what separates engineers from mere innovators is the ability to recognize the importance of sustainable technological solutions for the future. Although many of our needs and predicaments remain the same, the answers keep changing with time. I have decided to go in for graduate study that calls for personal commitment to fulfilling the crafts of independent research and dedicated involvement. I state with integrity and honesty, the following facts that led me to pursue a career in this fascinating field.

It was the first day of the new semester. Dr. Razzaque, the professor giving the introductory lecture of his fluid mechanics course, decided to start with an audacious statement. “If you think mechanical engineering is too broad in scope for your liking, remember, you have seen nothing yet.” Aware that he had the class’s attention, he went on, “Think about what you have learned so far. You have taken courses in physics, multivariable calculus, electric circuits, computer programming and so on. It will be some time before you will properly understand how all these elements come together, but when you do, you will probably be surprised by your own understanding of the world.” He then went on to explain, citing Formula One, computational fluid dynamics and biomimetics, how mechanical engineering brings very diverse skill sets together. Those words felt, at the time, like a key to making sense of the plethora of courses that was my college life. Dr. Razzaque had suddenly made me realize the relevance of what I was learning. It would prove to be a pivotal point in my academic life. That lecture, and the following course, renewed my passion for mechanical engineering. I joined Dr. Hasan’s lab a year later as an undergraduate researcher and now I aspire to pursue graduate studies in mechanical engineering. All of these can be traced back to that quiet spring morning more than two years ago.

Engineering has been my passion from the start. I took the first step to become an engineer by securing 80.3% in SSC and 91% in HSC. Graduating with 8.755 CGPA in my undergraduate studies is proof that I have a strong foundation in Mechanical Engineering. During the studies, the subjects Internal Combustion Engines, Automobile Engineering, Thermodynamics, Kinematics and Dynamics of Machines, design of transmission systems captivated my interest and also I had the opportunity to

The book is written by Chetan Bhagat who himself has received undergraduate degree in Mechanical Engineering from IIT, Delhi and later MBA from Indian Institute of Management, Ahmadabad.

As a Mechanical Engineering undergraduate student with an ardent interest in the industrial work environment, I have learnt the principles of mechanical engineering those are applicable to most machines, tools and processes which naturally widens my scope of learning and research. This has intrigued me to explore the option of pursuing master’s course in Mechanical Engineering from your prestigious University, which I believe will not only supplement my knowledge that I have acquired but also provide me with the best possible platform for the attainment of my future goals. I draw my inspiration towards this field from my mechanical engineer father who serves as a Mechanical Supervisor in a government run organization, National Fertilizers Limited. He was the one who introduced me to machines like Lathe Machine, Gear Cutting Machine, Hydraulic Cutting Machine, Steam Turbines, Compressors etc. and plants like Steam Generation Plant, Ammonia Plant at a very impressionable age. This naturally triggered in me a desire to know more about what happens inside these machines and the reason behind their precise and accurate working. Also, my frequent visits to the industry enabled me to retain as well as enhance my keen interest in the field and thus, influenced me to pursue my undergraduate course in Mechanical Engineering.

I would spend hours together experimenting and analyzing various mechanics around me like the ball bearings in my bicycle & roller skates and would be fascinated by my spring loaded toy cars. During my higher secondary schooling, I showed special interest in mathematics and physical sciences and in order to supplement the education that I received in school, I became a habitual reader of science magazines and books. As a direct consequence of this, I came to know about the latest developments in the field of science and engineering, especially aerospace and manufacturing engineering as it deeply interested me and I was naturally inclined to like the subject. The basics I learnt in school only whetted my appetite for more learning. It was but natural I would choose to take up manufacturing engineering as a career choice when I joined

Academic Background: I have completed my undergraduate studies in Mechanical engineering from “Acharya institute of Technology”, Bangalore, India in year 2016, scoring an average of 60.34%. I was an active somehow indulgent student among others during my undergraduate studies, very often involved in many curricular and co-curricular activities. In fact, I was up to the mark and honored in the top 20th of 120 students in my undergraduate class. If observed by the meritorious efforts I remain very competent and I have passed all entrance/Terminal tests conducted by the academic institution of my education with high achievements and secured overall good. I did my final year thesis project on “Multipurpose 3 in 1 mechanical machine drilling, shaping & hacksaw cutting” with the group of four members in which I was the Group Leader. The machine is designed for the purpose of multipurpose i.e. drilling, hacksaw cutting & shaping operation. In this project, I learned and researched that machine perform multipurpose operation at the same time with required speed and this machine is automatic which is controlled or operated by motor which runs with the help of current. The machine is based on the mechanism of whit worth’s return. While working on this project I found strong motivation in myself towards graduate study and research in the area of Machine operation. At present, I am working as a Service Engineer Zed Maruti, Shankar group, from last few months which is the leading

As I pen down my statement of purpose, my life so far races through my mind. In this concise piece of writing, various professional milestones achieved so far in my life, which commingle bring out my persona as to who I am and also justify my aspiration to reach the dizzy heights of a techno-leader and become a pioneer in the field of my choice.

I take this opportunity to describe my educational background and career objectives that motivated me to pursue a master in Mechanical engineering.

My fascination for Science led me to take up the science stream in my higher education. Also, participation in several science projects and expos during my school days made me seek clarity in the way I perceived concepts of basic sciences. This abiding interest helped me to score first class with distinction in my Board exams (10th & 12th).When the time came to choose an undergraduate program, one of the most significant decisions in life as it will lead to one’s career, an astute decision was made, based on factors ranging from inspiration, untapped interests and inherent skills to scope and satisfaction. I singled out mechanical engineering stream as it is the foundation to various other disciplines and specializing in any other field later on would be more beneficial. This led me to take up Mechanical engineering at one of the top colleges in India. The well-balanced curriculum at Sri Venkateswara College of Engineering (SVCE) Anna University has provided me with a comprehensive exposure to the fundamentals of Mechanical Engineering.

My curiosity in the engineering stream took roots during my formative years as my family has been associated with this field for over two decades. My maternal grandfather retired as a Chief Engineer, my father is employed as Senior Foreman, Aramco and uncle, as an Executive Engineer. Their achievements in respective domains motivated me to pursue my career in a challenging field and persuaded me to study Mechanical engineering; the field of my choice at my under graduate level.
