SOP for Engineering Management

As quoted by John D Rockefeller,

“Good management consists in showing average people how to do the work of superior
people”.

Mastering technology and tools is a part of engineering but managing them is an art and
a challenge that one can only learn from engineering management. Management is
essential at every step, ranging from individual to institutional level. We all are managers
of our time, money, and everything that we possess, and someday we will learn to master
it.

Learning management became my goal since my bachelor days. After completing high
school as a topper in math and physics, I opted for Mechanical engineering at JNT
university and Master of Engineering from Osmania University, India. These were the
days when we are on our own and experience the world without supervision. Managing
my finances and earning my living gave me an insight into how it must work on a larger
scale. My curiosity didn’t stop there. While studying engineering, I always wondered how
complex engineering institutes function. The amalgamation of problem-solving abilities
and planning skills, along with the leadership qualities required for this degree, amused
me.

It is a challenge to study and lead engineering-driven organizations to growth and


development, and a part of me loves challenges. I think I can function best under
pressure, and hence this field of career is meant for me, as it requires people to remain
calm in alarming situations.

Every day of a management engineer is novel, it brings about new problems, and I love
finding innovative solutions, is that not what we all do daily? After passing my engineering
degree with flying colors, I took up a Job as Assistant professor at GURUNANAK Institute
of Technical Campus, India, for Three years, then Mechanical Engineer at EMACO- Saudi
Arabia for almost 5 Years and then Project Engineer at SAUDCONSULT-Saudi Arabia
for almost Three years, this work experience turned out to be an eye-opener for me. It
made me realize the importance of managerial skills required for the overall development
and boost my career.

Ten years from now, I want to see myself as a successful entrepreneur of an engineering
firm, and this goal motivated me towards pursuing a Master in Engineering Management.
I have a profound knowledge of structural design, maintenance, and construction. I also
possess the required skills like leadership, problem-solving, decision making,
interpersonal skills, etc., to reach my goal. The finishing touch that will take me closer to
my plan is this degree. I hope the institution recognizes my potential.

Sincerely,
Eng. Thahar Ali Syed
