Albert Einstein�s words, �Problems cannot be solved at the same level of awareness that created

them.� interested me right from my school days and with single-minded devotion I focused my
attention throughout my career in school and college to increase my level of awareness to understand
life and the associated problems.

Engineering is the process of using science, mathematics, technology and common sense in a creative
way to design, build and sell all kinds of products, services and information. In my perception, success in
any career depends on a few basic fundamental elements and technical expertise with a sound
knowledge base. These aspects need to be supplemented by an extensive data bank and administrative
skills. Of course, the ultimate success depends on the individual�s will to translate the above traits into
a meaningful demonstrable success consistent to such success. As an undergraduate student my
exposure has been in the academic side with participation in seminars and symposiums. However, with
fierce competition that exists in all technical fields and in-depth knowledge that is required to meet the
challenging situations that may arise in those technical fields in the days to come, shall be met, I am
sure, by the kind of exposure the Graduate Course in your esteemed university is going to provide.

In the present day environment, a sound understanding of fundamentals and expertise in more than
one area is essential. Your Graduate course offers opportunity to obtain ingredients for both, a unique
environment that no job can perhaps offer. The graduate school and university will provide me an
exposure to several research areas through contacts with the faculty and other graduate students. The
university environment will also give me access to lab facility, computational tools and opportunities to
interact with the faculty and other experts regarding various topics of research.

My academic career has proceeded in the best possible way so far. I passed out from one of the finest
schools in the city, xxxxxx Senior Secondary School. I was always interested and good at in physics and
mathematics and it was this similar and precise logical nature of those principles of Physics and
Mathematics led me to pursue my career in Electronics & Communication Engineering. As a culmination
of my efforts, I qualified for admission into the prestigious xxxxx, affliated to xxxx.

Electronics according to me is where the future is moving towards. It had made life easier in more ways
than one. The things that we take granted for today are actually a fine amalgamation of human
endeavor and electronic marvels of earlier years. Added to this is the all purpose, all pervasive and
undisputedly the greatest brain child of man-computers. Realizing that these branches would be the
foundations for the future, I set out in right earnest to widen my knowledge in these fields. My trysts
with various fields in my discipline turned my initial fascination to one of unquenchable obsession. The
more I learnt the more I wanted to understand. The more I understood, the more I wanted to reason.
The more I reasoned, the more involved I became. My indomitable quest for knowledge made me
resolve that I should widen my intellect by doing a Masters degree after my graduation in your
esteemed university.

Electronics has always been a passion for me. As I delved into the realm of electronics, my initial
fascination turned into one of unquenchable obsession. My under graduate program had lots to offer in
areas such as Control Systems, Digital Signal Processing, Satellite Communication, VLSI Design & Circuits,
Analog Communication, Micro Processor & Application. Each field in my discipline attracted me in its
own way; but I channelized my drive and energy into two areas that appealed most to me, viz, Digital
Signal Processing (DSP) and VLSI. I started to immerse myself deeply into these subjects and spent long
hours at the laboratory that helped me understand the intricacies of Signal Processing. To facilitate
better understanding of DSP, I have completed a course titled �Fundamentals of DSP� at prestigious
Anna University to lay a strong foundation for my higher studies in all aspects of Communication
Engineering. I honed my computer knowledge with courses in Matlab, C and C++. I am also delighted
that I have been selected to do an INHOUSE Project during the month of November at xxxxx, a
prestigious institution in xxxx.

My quest for an university that would help me transgress the tenets of science and give me unbridled
freedom to explore new avenues in my fields of interest led me to your doorstep. As a university that
boasts of eminent faculty members, vast library, state of art facilities and enviable infrastructure yours is
certainly a center of excellence. I am sure that such an environment will bring out the best in me and
help me scale new heights. I am convinced that I will achieve my career goals with distinction in your
Esteemed University.

I browsed extensively through your web pages and discovered that your research areas seemed to
match in the most coherent way with my areas of specialization, viz, Digital Signal Processing, VLSI. I feel
that under your able guidance and tutelage, I would realize my long cherished dreams and ambitions.

I wish to assure you, that you can find a diligent, disciplined and a dedicated student in me. I hope that
you would give me a chance to prove my mettle and worth in your university and bring laurels to it.

I look forward to being a part of your university.
