INTRODUCTION/OPENING
STATEMENT
Saraswatis Comments: Has to be broad in nature. Take the reader
from known to unknown. Using quotes of great men would help . Make
sure you are using relevant ones
EXAMPLE
The rapid pace at which the developments are taking place has caught everybodys
imagination. The ever-changing environment and the challenges it posed led me to take up
computer science as a career option. I had once read a quote by Bill Gates which was In this
business, by the time you realize you're in trouble, it's too late to save yourself. Unless you're
running scared all the time, you're gone. This is when I thought to myself that if the best
brain in this field could feel so insecure,how a novice like me should feel an how secure is my
future. This was when I decided that I would work hard and ensure I am up-to-date at all times.
EXAMPLE
The Pharmaceutical Industries are coming up with new breakthroughs every day. As a student
of Pharmacy, to keep myself updated and withstands the competition it is very important for
me to be equipped with appropriate knowledge and training. A graduate degree is a necessity
in todays competitive scenario. My goal is to sharpen the tools of reasoning and to
intellectually equip myself to pursue an innovative, productive and satisfying career in Drug
Regulatory affairs
EXAMPLE:
I realized how dynamic innovations were when my home started having appliances like a
Washing Machine, Television, an Air-conditioner etc. but I remember life changing drastically
once we purchased a personal desktop computer. For me personally as well, it was a turning
point because I had new reasons to be inquisitive and new answers to derive. This whole
process helped me understand that whatever I chose it had to be aligned with CS. I was also
good in biology and which is why everyone in my family including me felt that a Degree in BioInformatics was what I had to do.
Description of your
Academic background in
the field
Saraswatis Comments: Don't go too far back! You could write about
the subjects you did at the Bachelors level or some project that you did
or the job profile that you have right now which has necessitated you to
look at higher studies to specialize in a particular subject . Remember to
keep toe in to the first 4 questions in the TO DO list above
EXAMPLE:
My interest in this wonderful field actually increased after I joined ..in 2008 .I started
realizing that programming is not only limited to coding, theres more to it than meets the
eye. I also got acquainted to other fields of computing like Computer Networks, Systems
Programming, Operating Systems, Web Technologies, Computer Graphics, Artificial
Intelligence and Software Engineering which covered the fundamentals of the different areas
of computing. I have developed a keen interest in fields of Programming Languages, Analysis
of Algorithms, Compilers, and Operating Systems and database management. I have taken
several small but innovative projects in these areas. My strong mathematical and logical skills
helped me analyze and implement some complex algorithms using programming languages
like C++ and Java. Also, I took projects on compiler construction, study of different operating
systems. These projects crystallized the theoretical concepts that I learnt in the
aforementioned topics. I attended training sessions in TCS on topics like UNIX, RDBMS Oracle,
Software Engineering, Web Services, Object Oriented programming etc. This helped me
greatly to keep myself updated with the advancements in these areas. Whenever I get some
free time I browse the internet to read articles on computer science topics.
Extracurricular/Cocurricular Activities in
the field
Saraswatis Comments: Talk about projects you worked on. Details
of courses and projects help to show focus.
EXAMPLE:
One of the most important projects was my final year project at in which I did in the final
year of engineering - Office Automation with ID recognizer and timestamp. The circuit
can be used to note the in time and out time of the employees. It can also be used to
trigger multiple actions such as opening the door. In the project we used 89C51 as
Microcontroller and applied the concepts of wireless communication for data
transmission. This project evaluated me on my research skills, analytical skills and core
fundamentals of computer science.
Publications/Professiona
l accomplishments in the
field
Saraswatis Comments: You could use this para to write about the
projects , professional accomplishments at work ( Only if relevant ) .
EXAMPLE:
Conference Presentations or Public Readings.
EXAMPLE:
In todays web enabled context, programming and database systems define the very character of
an enterprise. I am fast and accurate in coding, capable of learning and using new technologies. In
fact I have already used a number of technologies in the course of my work. Though I have
developed a considerable amount of confidence as far as technology is concerned, I still need to
extend and supplement my knowledge. Technology changes very fast and it is important to remain
up to date. Working with one of the best IT company has been very enriching. However a job
quickly stagnates growth by its repetitive nature and tends to isolate one from the recent
technological advances in the field. A considerable work experience and further studies would
complement each other well. Comprehensive knowledge of the subject and the exposure through
research would arm me to face up to the challenges that lie ahead. Information Technology has
removed the distances and differences those were present in the world before, which is why I feel
that it is a very interesting field. As its a wide ranging field, a lot of research has been done, but a
lot remains to be explored, so the possibilities are inexhaustible. I realized that domain functional
knowledge is equally important to make a way in a career in Information Systems. Management
Information Systems (MIS) program is concentrated on arming us with the aptitude to evaluate
industry related problems or situations, discover business opportunities and requirements,
delineate solutions, and escort teams to implement these solutions by application of various
information technologies. I will be able to capitalize on the value of education by providing me with

Comments:
Explain the reasons for any unusual features of your career (taking a
year out, poor performance, etc.). Include social and extracurricular
activities to show balance in your life or because they are relevant to
the course.
