1. STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
There is no measure when it comes to the scope of computer science—be it the empowerment of
communities by making technology user-friendly and widely accessible or the advancement of
healthcare in the form of genomics and personalized medicine through machine-learning
techniques and improved computing power. The truth is that computer science continues to prove
itself as ubiquitous, and the absence of the same could lead to other fields ceasing to exist. The
demand for qualified, motivated professionals who can bring about a change in the discipline of
information and computing grows with each passing day, and I am positive that my resources can
be best utilized in the same. I discovered my inclination towards computers by observing my
peers dedicating themselves to the information technology sector and soon conceived myself as
working with immersive technologies that regard efficiency. To optimize my instinct for practical
challenges and logical thinking committed to analyzing and devising solutions, I seek a Master's
in Data Analytics from ——— University.
During the course of education at ———, the presence of a distinguished faculty, stimulating
curriculum, and excellent facilities helped me establish and strengthen my grasp on computer
science. My acquaintance with core courses such as Object-Oriented Programming, Computer
Organization, Database Management System, Artificial Intelligence, and Web Design provided
me with an in-depth introduction to the workings of each field and rightly exposed me to the
various facets of computer science. While the fundamental subjects laid my foundation, the time
spent in technological labs gave me the opportunity to implement my learnings from the
classroom and build my programming skills.
My first project, 'E-gas Sewa', translating to online gas service, was a Java-based application
produced to enable the payment of online gas bills with Java as the front-end and MS Access as
the backend. The application had various logins depending on different roles—the user logins
only had access to the homepage and the login page where they could find the details of their
connection and bill history, whereas the admins and database users had complete backend and
front-end access. Since the project was to be submitted in the short span of three weeks, we
mainly encountered difficulties surrounding database connectivity, designing the user interface,
executing types of tests and platform dependency. Regardless of our challenges, we were able to
finish it on time and received appreciation from our faculty. Similarly, my next project, 'Machine
Language Translation', aimed to translate English sentences to Hindi sentences solely by
optimizing statistical machine translation. Initially a Linux based project, the machine learning
aspects seemed foreign and challenging. However, understanding algorithms and implementing
them as well as getting introduced to new technology such as MI and NLP made it worthwhile.
Though mainly an expression of our theoretical learnings, the projects also broadened my
understanding of software and programming languages such as C, C++ with Data Structures,
Java, UML and HTML. Since most of my academic projects were created in teams of two or

2. four, the opportunity expanded the scope of my experience; I got to lead and learn, which proved
incredibly helpful in my professional career.
My capabilities as a working professional can be partially credited to my time at ———, where I
was mainly assigned the responsibility of policy designing. The tool development is based on an
OpenText Exstream, a customer communications platform. Once the development stage is
accomplished, the code is run through the mainframe in different regions to make it live. Apart
from using GuideWire and Exceed as host systems, I primarily employed Extstream, Mainframe,
Content Manager and On Demand. The cycle of performing analysis of the requirement to the
development until the code goes live and the UAT is successfully completed, was my brainchild,
and I was honored with the spot award for my work. Prior to this, I had been dedicating my
resources at ——— to an upgrade project, focusing on the migration and upgradation of
Documentum, a Document Management software owned by OpenText. My vision was to install
upgraded applications, starting with content servers, on a new platform. The project proved to be
incredibly challenging—a minor error could lead to many. I mainly struggled with the migration
of Documentum jobs to a new environment and fixing them, resolving inconsistencies in the
latest version and proposing the live version of Documentum to users and businesses. For
overcoming numerous difficulties and executing a smooth-running project, I was awarded as the
star of the month.
Throughout my undergraduate program, I was heavily involved in the organization process of
technical and non-technical events. One such event was 'Wings', where I contributed by raising
funds, handling the publicity and managing the prize distribution ceremony. Additionally, my
fondness for performing arts can be seen in my participation and accreditation in inter-collegiate
level dance, street play and musical. Along with this, I have been a notable participant and
recipient of prizes in several technical quizzes, including those organized by the reputed
engineering college. Furthermore, I was consistently the college topper while pursuing my
graduation as well as served as the student representative during my diploma program.
My academic dominance, professional accomplishments and stimulating extracurricular
background empower me to pursue a Masters in Data Analytics from ——— University. The
course aligns brilliantly with my career prospects, and with the guidance of Dr ———, it will
enable me to work with trending technologies such as database systems, big data analytics,
machine learning, and management information systems, to name a few. Ultimately, I envision
myself working as a data analyst or a data scientist at a reputed firm operating in India. The
exposure attained through my undergraduate program, coupled with my learnings from the
Master's course aided by esteemed professor, Dr ———, will prove pivotal in actualizing my
goal of accelerating my country's technological development. I believe that my passion for
reaching the zenith of success and aiming for perfection, along with the possession of intellectual
ability and self-motivation, deem me a viable candidate for the pursuit of a Masters in Data

3. Analytics. I am confident in my ability to excel and bring pride to ——— University’s existing
prestige. To conclude, I want to express my gratitude towards the admissions committee for
enabling me to voice myself through this statement and sincerely hope that they grant me the
opportunity to showcase my abilities at ——— University.
