Summary Of A Personal Statement Of Purpose

Teachers are the true magicians who fill the life of a student with the miracles that stems from their experience. I am grateful to my teachers who molded my character, fueled my love for mathematics and encouraged me to learn electronics. I have always been teachers’ favorite and one of the top students. I was the third topper at the secondary school. So, I got selected in 'Ramakrishna Mission Vidyapith', which is a renowned school in India. My passion for learning higher mathematics grew when I secured ninety-five percent marks in mathematics at the pre-university level.

During my undergraduate study, I loved solving differential equations, finding Fourier and Laplace transforms and applying Newton-Raphson method to approximate the roots of a function. But, I needed something where I could have the physical portrayal of mathematics. My inquisitive attitude led me to 6.002x Circuits and electronics, an online course on edX taught by Dr. Anant Agarwal, Professor of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Through this course, I learned lumped circuit abstraction, op-amp abstraction, time and frequency domain analysis and CMOS design. I did DC and AC analysis of the circuits and solved the first and the second order circuits. Often, I

I developed ladder logic for complex real-time problems, compiled it using Simatic manager software, and downloaded the program on PLC. Once, I asked trainer the reason for effective processing of the data acquired from I/O modules of PLC. He replied that it has a CPU which consists of a microprocessor, memory chip and other integrated circuits to control logic, monitoring and communications. I was surprised to know that this small size circuit was able to perform such complex
