STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
Abhilash Reddy Toom
In a significant career plan, considering my academic background, ability and career objectives, I have opted for a research oriented graduate program leading to Ph.D., in Mechanical Engineering with specialization in design. It is my firm belief that only specialization in one’s field of interest would unleash one’s creativity and talent to contribute something original to the development of Science and Technology.
Inspired by the marvels of Science, I developed a flair for Mathematics and Science very early in my school days. My attempt at National Science Talent Search Test placed me in the top 5% of a million students from all over India. Machines and robotics have always enthused me right from

However, my focus was into two areas that appealed most to me viz., Designing and Thermal. I engaged myself deep into these subjects and spent long hours at the laboratory that helped me understand the nuances of Design and Thermal Engineering. I have credited a course titled “Computer Aided Design” to gain a strong foundation for my higher studies in Design Engineering. In this direction, I have successfully completed three lab-oriented projects. The experience of these projects gave me an insight into the problems encountered during design and assembling the components and on-line solutions. The SYNOPSES of the projects are attached to this SOP. To hone my application skills, I have learnt Auto CAD, CATIA, ANSYS and Solidworks. I can confidently state that I have gained on-line and real time experience in using these tools. I had learnt Mat lab, Java and C and used them in my course work. I feel a research oriented graduate study at a reputed institution would improvise my skills and widen the horizons of knowledge, which are quintessential for academic
The three careers I chose to examine were IT Security Administrator, Forensics Investigator, and Obstetrician Gynecologist. I chose these careers because I discovered that the employment rates for these jobs are expected to grow at a faster than average 37% from 2012-2022. This is because data security threats are growing and with more digital technology rising, more organizations have become victims of cyber crimes. The other career is what I want to be. Internet Security Administrators, also known as computer security specialists, or Internet security specialists, protect computer systems against attack.
This setting will not only me to communicate and develop with other students holding similar interests, but also those who are selected as some of the most advanced in these fields. It will help me build connections to pursue collective investments into the evolutionary future of human technology and engineering, where idea advancement is crucial. In addition
My interests in technology did not come until later in my life; when I attended my first engineering and technology workshop. Back in the summer of 2012 I was accepted into the Rowan University’s Boys Engineering, Science, and Technology (BEST) Program. Throughout the event I was in awe and fascinated by what engineering had to offer. We built bottle rockets and constructed penny bridges, but what stood out to me the most was the hands on experience with computer programming.
Knowledge is a very important aspect of life. In my opinion, if one cannot help others with the knowledge he or she has acquired, then there is no significance to that knowledge. That being said, I want to join the national math honor society because I want to help others with math, therefore, spreading my knowledge, so it will not go to waste. By helping others with math related topics, I will not only be sharing my knowledge on math, but I would also be increasing my understanding of mathematical topics as well. My interest in math has influenced me to look at future careers that involve math, such as biological engineering, because I will enjoy taking the math classes required in that particular major.
A thermodynamic engineer applies theories of heat and energy transfers to invent practical solutions to technical problems. They design, develop and test and evaluate products and machinery. Thermodynamic engineers contribute to the design of the kettle for they develop inventions designed to improve the way the heating works in a kettle, such as by creating new heating element concepts or overhauls of the interior layout. A bachelor’s degree in a related chemical or mechanical engineering field is required as there is not direct degree for thermodynamics. An undergraduate course called ‘Engineering Thermodynamics’ is available in the University of
I want to further my studies for that reason. I am more confident now. 2) How many years did you study, where and did you have training during your studies? NP: I studies at “UDABOL University” for 5 years and we started observing practices at the 2nd year and only had hand on experience the last year.
Due to automation and robotics, around five million jobs exist with 300,000 people estimated to already be employed in industrial robotics.
I could not forget the excitement I had waking up in the morning and running straight to the Lego structures deciding how to build a certain structure and a daydream I had of imagining of actual being built in real life. / deciding how to build a certain structure. The snapping and fitting of bricks, rods and gears captivated me for countless hours. Every Lego brick I laid down furthered my interest in designing and engineering.
Isaac Asimov’s Reason, shows us how the field of robotics is still a working-progress, Philip K. Dick’s Second Variety introduces the idea of superior, conscious machines who were created by advanced technology, and Kenneth Chang’s “Can Robots Become Conscious?” shares different views on the advancement of machines and robots. I believe machines and robots are not glorified adding-up machines and I think it is possible that they will become capable of original thought the more we advance in the field of robotics. Similar to the iPhone updates, new technology and new studies could lead to intelligent, conscious machines. Technology has come a long way, with the introduction of the Siri of the iPhone, Window 10 2-in-1 computers, flying military drones, and many more.
Especially interesting to me are researches in areas as genetic engineering of metabolic pathways and synthetic biology, develop in your university. I think that my experience in microbial, biochemical and molecular biology area could be useful and coud let me fit well in this Ph.D. program. I am convinced that the intensive research Ph.D. training will help me become a better prepared for a position in biomedical research, pharmaceutical industry or
Since I was in my childhood I have high curiosity on how and why things work. I have this unsatisfied feeling until I know why and how it 's happening. My dad always told me the same about me. I still remember how I spend the whole day looking for what make the pedestal fan to swing and I opened up its cover to see the motor and gear rotating and for me it 's fascinating. He used to bring me along with him in his nearest four wheel drive park where he taught me many things about four wheel vehicles.
For all of my life, I have had a skill and a great interest in the design and construction of a variety of objects and machinery. I have known since day one that all i wanted to do is design brand new and innovative technology. I have chosen Waterloo as my first choice of education for my future career as a mechanical engineer for many reasons. One being the schools amazing reputation as a school of applied sciences, having been given the nickname “MIT of the north” by many. I know a few people who have attended this University.
As technology and robotics progress, people continue to debate how jobs and careers could be affected. Robotic replacement might not have a negative effect , especially since it has helped our development to be able to survive. The process of the robotic development started in the industrial age. The industrial age is known for “a period in which fundamental changes
Being good in science, mathematics and having a natural inclination towards programming since early school days has shaped my future ambitions. With a strong determination and a focused goal to become a software engineer, I pursued the Bachelor of Engineering (B.E.) degree in Information
Right from my childhood days, I was always eager to know how things work in surroundings. When I was given toys, I hardly played with them rather tried to dismantle it and try to know the mechanism running it. During school days, I have participated in many science exhibitions which further motivated me towards taking my knowledge and experience onto a higher and advanced level. With this desire and curiosity to understand machines and mechanisms, I chose to complete my graduation in Mechanical Engineering.
