STATEMENT OF PURPOSE

I am Syed Aleemuddin, an undergraduate student in Electronics and

Communications Engineering from Muffakham Jah College of Engineering and

Technology affiliated to Osmania University, have applied to graduate program in

Electrical Engineering at your University. In the following lines I attempt to give a

brief portrayal of my interests, aptitude, education and extra-curricular activities.

The process of learning continues throughout once life says an old adage. Its

a never ending process and I firmly believe it. As one goes on learning new things,

one realizes that there are many more things which one needs to learn to quench

ones thirst for knowledge. During the course of my undergraduate study I have

learnt many things but I have also realized that I need to learn more to advance

frontiers in my field of interest. A graduate study is the next step in my quest for

knowledge and to bring out my forte to the fore.

Right from my school days, I have always shown a high degree of

competence and interest in mathematics and physical sciences. I have written

different talent search examinations like NATIONAL SCIENCE TALENT

SEARCH EXAMINATION, MATHS OLYMPIAD,SCIENCE OLYMPIAD etc. It

was with this motivation that I took up the mathematics and physical sciences

stream in my pre-university course. My excellent performance here gave me the

confidence to take electronics and communication engineering. I was admitted to

the undergraduate program in electronics and communication through a statewide

entrance examination in mathematics and physical sciences. In my undergraduatestudy I have been deeply interested by subjects such as semiconductor electronics,

Analog and Digital electronic circuits, Digital Signal Processing and VLSI.

My area of interest is VLSI and Embedded Systems. As soon as I joined

electronics I would wonder how we are able to able to fabricate a million of

transistors on a small IC. One of the faculty members of our college conducted a 2

week workshop on VLSI during my third year of engineering. I attended the

workshop and to my benefit I learnt how an integrated chip is fabricated beginning

from idea in the designers mind to the actual implementation. After attending the

workshop I opted for VLSI during my final year of engineering and I am currentlyworking on a project called ass Sigma Delta Analog to Digital Converter. I have

also worked on different softwares like Tanner Tools, Cadance, Matlab, Xilinx .

As per the latest research I have found that the ICs can be fabricated on 45nm

technology also. As an undergraduate student I am not content with what I have

learnt in this subject and am thirsty for acquiring more knowledge in terms of both

theory and application.

To keep pace with fast growing technology, I attended every workshop and

paper presentation competitions that were held at our college. I was a part of the

IEEE Student Branch of my college. The branch provided me many opportunities

to attend technical workshops and seminars conducted by eminent

personalities. Apart from thisI have also been the active participant in the sports

events such as Cricket, Badminton and table Tennis of my college as well as other

intercollegiate competitions. All these activities have given me the confidence and

inspiration to actively participate in the process of acquiring and sharing

knowledge.

The essence of university education lies in the success of the symbolic

relationship between the student and his department. It is with this in mind that I am

looking forward to a long and rewarding relationship with your university. From the

tremendous research options available here, I am confident that I will have the

opportunity to work professionally with faculty on research projects and at the same

time, I can make my research-work more meaningful.

Based on my abilities and interests I feel that pursuing a graduate program at

your prestigious university would benefit me greatly in the pursuit of my dreams

and goals. I have read about the research going on in your university and have been

very impressed by the work being done by the excellent faculty and the students

involved at your institution. I feel I am confident enough to do justice to these

aspirations and leave up to your expectations. Hoping with a positive attitude, I

earnestly look forward to be a part of your esteemed institution.
