STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
An enormous number of challenges, thrown out by rapid development in
science and technology, have made me choose engineering profession. I take
this opportunity to describe my educational background and career objectives
that motivated me to pursue a research career in mechanical engineering. I
completed my higher secondary examination scoring 96% in basic sciences.
My undergraduate education has provided a thorough exposure to the various
specialties available in Mechanical Engineering, thus stimulating interest in
advanced research.

In my undergraduate years, I've acquired a strong background in the
fundamentals of the basic mechanical engineering subjects like
Thermodynamics, Heat and Mass transfer, Solid Mechanics, Fluid mechanics,
CAD/CAM, Mechanics of Machines, Design of machine elements etc. I have
also had an introduction to specialized areas like Finite Element Techniques
and Operations Research.

Thermal and Fluid Sciences has captivated my interest during my
undergraduate study and in relation to that I had also completed a project
namely " Coal Water Slurry as an auxiliary fuel for oil " in boilers at Bharath
Heavy Electrical Limited (B.H.E.L.) in collaboration with National Thermal
Power Corporation, Central Fuel Research Institute & I.I.T.-Madras. I would
like to pursue graduate studies in specialized Thermal fields like Combustion,
Heat and Mass Transfer, Computational Fluid Dynamics in a committed
manner and I am confident of contributing considerably to the growth of this
field. A coin has two faces. Similarly in my view, I feel that extra curricular
activities are as important as studies in estimating a person's overall capacity.
As a chess player and volleyball player representing the university, I am in a
position that many athletes would covet. Another exciting and learning phase
at the university had been my experience as an executing member of
