STATEMENT OF PURPOSE

While reasoning my intentions to pursue Master’s degree in Computer Science at your

University I would like to throw some light on my career till now. I always fancied myself with
Computers right from my childhood and thought of becoming a Software Engineer got implanted
in my mind at an early age. A career in Engineering seemed the most challenging and logical
extension of my abilities. To accomplish this, I completed BE in Computer Science and
Engineering at Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar Marathwada University, Aurangabad.

I had the good fortune of having a well-compiled syllabus, which placed equal emphasis on
theoretical fundamentals as well as practical applications. Subjects such as Computer
organization, Data and Network Communication, Data Mining and Software Engineering
laid a solid foundation in the theoretical aspects of the subjects. Practical application aspects
were introduced to me through subjects such as Object Oriented Programming concepts,
Multimedia Systems, Open Source Software Technology, Internet technologies. The areas,
which are of special interest to me, centered on Data structures, Computer Networks and
Database Management Systems. I have also completed six month course in Environmental
Studies.

The next step in my career towards achieving my career goal is to pursue my Masters Program in
Computer Science. I have done considerable research in this area to pursue my Higher education
in a reputed University and with a good course curriculum. The distinguished faculty and
excellent facilities at your university make its graduate program ideally suited to my professional
goals. I need to widen the scope of my knowledge and skills. The diversity of the student body
will open my mind to new influences, new ideas and new ways of doing things. The world is
literally becoming a global village where opportunities for work are transcending physical space.
With the cyberspace connections, Indian knowledge workers are increasingly contributing to the
global work force. The international education will give me the training and the caliber to meet
the global clients. I look forward to being an active contributing member of the student
community at your University. Possible career opportunities for me in India include research and
development roles in the development of new technologies such as software engineering,
technical applications developers and consultants, network managers and other leading roles in
computing industry.

I strongly believe that a software engineer should be instinctive, innovative and quick to adopt
new technologies, which is only possible with solid foundation and profundity in his subjects.
This entails and insightful and thorough understanding of the intricacies of the subject. That is
the reason why I am inclined towards Master’s in Computer Science at your reputed
University.

Though I have mentioned my fields of interest, I would relish the opportunity of exploring
unknown avenues in this very vast discipline. My engineering background has developed a flair
for challenges in me and I am prepared to meet the demands of this interesting and arduous
course.

Yours Sincerely,
Maya Jawalge
