The galloping pace of development of electronics and communication has always intrigued me. My interest in electronics has increased over time and it turned into undeniable passion that drove me to take Electrical and Electronic Engineering in my under graduation at Jawaharlal Nehru Technological University-Hyderabad. I strongly believe that to excel in any field of education or work a person needs to possess interest and strong passion towards their work and have the right set of skills to travel towards success. I firmly believe that the skills I have acquired during my undergraduate study will provide me with a firm footing for the Master’s program at George Mason University.
Upon my graduation I wanted to contribute towards the development of technology and build new ideas that could be beneficial to human kind. During my under graduation course, I was provided with an opportunity to understand subjects both theoretically and practically. I am an optimist, sincere, responsible and a tenacious person. I participated in Android Workshop conducted by IIT-Kanpur and also attended workshops on Robotics, Computer Networking and Control Systems. My thirst to excel was not quenched with these workshops and I proceeded to join diploma course in a reputed institution SSSIT Limited, in which I mastered my programming skills in both Core and Advanced JAVA. Later on I worked on my own Android applications: I worked on ANDROID SDK with ECLIPSE+ADT plugin by using JAVA and XML programming languages. I also keep myself updated with the latest news related to various technologies and electronic gadgets which are available in the market which further drives me to be associated with this field.
My keen interest in this field has helped me in expanding my frontiers in knowledge by closely observing the trends in technology through standard journals and by attending various seminars. During my third year of undergraduate study I attended a seminar on ‘Network Security and its Applications’ which had a great impact on me. The seminar mainly concentrated on the fundamentals of Network Security and it’s applications that are used in building Embedded Systems. This has introduced me to a new dimension of electronics.
My quest for knowledge and passion towards electronics has inspired me to choose Masters in Telecommunications above all other options. The statistical and adaptive nature of the Network Systems has made an apparent difference by innovating new and effective systems. From wired connections to wireless, the communications field has surely undergone a notable transformation. The advanced techniques of Network Systems have enormously increased the capacity and speed of Communication Systems making them interrelated. Challenging yet effective both Network Systems and Communication Systems have made a remarkable difference in human lives. I am highly enthusiastic to develop such challenging and effective techniques, inspiring me to pursue my Masters in Telecommunications. The subjects of research which interests me are Network Security Fundamentals and Digital Media Forensics.
My projects on 3-Phase Power Measurement and Impedance Relay needs a special mention. The 3-Phase Power Measurement uses Arduino Board, Analyses Electrical parameters and displays electrical usage on a computer and the Impedance Relay is used to protect the transmission lines from over voltages. They gave me the practical approach towards Electrical Engineering and also I got appreciated for my work when they were displayed in the Road Show conducted by Jawaharlal Nehru Technological Universit- Hyderabad.
In addition to my focus on academic life, I have lot of varied interests and hobbies. I participated in athletic and cultural events and acquired good organizing abilities. My leadership qualities have been recognized when I worked actively as a Core-Committee member for two consecutive years (2013-2014) for the second biggest cultural event of Hyderabad city, PULSE, held by our college Gokaraju Rangaraju Institute of Engineering and Technology.
I am confident that undertaking this graduate study will help me in expanding my perimeter in practical knowledge and help me in gaining expertise in my field of interest helping me to build a career in the fields that I am passionate about. It has been my long cherished dream to become a researcher and eventually turn into a good engineer who could contribute to build the gaps between technology and human kind.
I strongly believe that graduate program at the George Mason University will help me in achieving my career goals. The University’s graduate program will assist me in broadening my knowledge and excel in my area of interest. Also, I was impressed by the extensive infrastructure and the nature of research going on. It also suits my interests and aspirations the best and will help me in developing my personality on whole by providing an exposure to a diverse community. I am therefore looking forward to be a member of your student body which will take me a step closer to my long term objectives.
