STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
A large number of challenges, with fast development in science and
technology, have made me choose engineering profession. My undergraduate education has provided a thorough exposure to the various specialties available in Mechanical Engineering, thus stimulating interest in advanced research. I belong to a family where education is given very high priority. My father is an educator himself. This background trained in me a deep inclination for academics from the very beginning. Mathematics and Physics were the subjects that appealed me the most. I joined one of the best institutes for engineering education in Pakistan. The growing involvement of Mathematics and especially Mechanics and Heat transfer topics in Physics encouraged me to choose Mechanical Engineering as my interest of study in undergraduate studies. After coming to NED University, I was introduced to the true expanse of engineering. The core courses gave me an in-depth knowledge in each field. The lab courses and projects gave me the technical skills. Most of the projects were done in groups of two to four students. This gave me the opportunity to learn to work in a group both as a leader or otherwise. Furthermore my interest in teaching also grew and it became my passion. I started teaching mathematics to my juniors after intermediate education. I went into teaching because I realized the classroom is the place where I could do my best work and make the biggest impact. I always wanted to learn so I decided to teach my fellows as well. I would like to pursue graduate studies in Mechanical Engineering in a committed manner and I am confident of contributing considerably to the growth of this field. I believe that completing this course will bring endless possibilities to my research area. I am interested in Clean Energy Technology, Mechanics, Finite Element Analysis and Heat Transfer. Within a decade or so, I visualize myself as a full-fledged research professional in an organization or a faculty member at one of the leading Universities. I see PhD as a first step in achieving this career objective. I am willing to do Masters of Engineering as an intermediate step. Currently, Australia is one of the most popular destination for studying abroad in the English-speaking world. I have chosen it because of the cultural diversity, excellent education system, friendly environment and high living standard. Furthermore, institutions in Australia offer a wide variety of courses and quality research. So it is easy to select degree program and take advantage of impressive research resources.
My advisors recommended me of your university on the basis of faculty
interests. After going through the prospectus, I realized that there also exists a vast range of opportunities in your department. I have gathered that a considerable amount of research is being done and a number of renowned faculty members are working on the research frontiers of mechanical engineering. It would be my privilege to learn at your institution and contribute something useful to engineering. I sincerely hope to have a mutually beneficial association with your University to contribute my best towards making a successful research endeavor. Keeping this in mind, joining your University seems to me as an excellent first step. Thanks for your consideration.
