...towards Mechanical engineering and its related areas were developed through various instances of my childhood and academic life. Born into a family predominantly engaged in agricultural trading, my grandfather, a farmer himself, was the first to introduce me to the world of equipment and machinery. Observing objects in motion had always kindled my curiosity as a toddler and kept me wondering about its working. The stepping stones onto becoming a rational individual were laid at Navy Children School, Kochi. NCS provided for the holistic development of its students; sports and extracurricular activities were of particular importance. Leading my team in various competitions of art and sports, as the house captain, helped me showcase...

...Women in the Engineering World Engineering is a field dominated by men in today's society. When people think about engineering they think about men with glasses and never does a woman come to mind. However, there have been many studies on the skills that keep women out of engineering as a career yet there is no proof that women cannot or do not possess the skills needed to be a successful engineer. Therefore, it is thought and stereotyped that women do not have the skills to have an engineering career. Women are stereotyped as being dumb just because they are pretty, but many women have proven that stereotype wrong. These women who do have the skills to enter into the field face bias everyday in the field because they are women, not because they lack in the required skills. There have been organizations that spend their time encouraging women to enter into engineering. The Organizations and societies have become so strong and so persuasive that even the company that makes Barbie is coming out with a computer engineering Barbie to attract young girls into the field. The push from the organizations and the drive of the women for success has helped some women to make a breakthrough in the field. Those few women who have overcome many challenges and obstacles in the field have to prove themselves to be looked at with even the slightest bit of respect. These women who make a breakthrough are making huge impacts on the field and improving it tremendously. Women are important to engineering...

Proceeedings of the conference on The future of Software Engineering, pp. 371-380. Reference #1: This website shows aspiring students what a software engineer does, the median of what could be earned in that field, and also breaks down all the different types of factors a student would want to know before they have begun studying in that field. It also shows students where current software engineers are employed. Those industries include computer systems design related services, electronic product manufacturing, wholesale trade, architectural engineering, public administration, and scientific research and development studies. Though this source is not an article with an author or from a university, I believe this is a good source to use. The reason I feel like it is a good source is because while I was searching on the website I noticed that their website has been mentioned and used on many school websites such as Cal Poly Pomona. The website gives students a great deal of information that other sources found on Google.com do not provide. This source has confirmed what I have seen while searching for software engineering jobs on the internet. It will allow me to provide more information on my Project Part 1 on what I could expect to make as a software engineer and the rate of unemployment in the industry. Reference...

Show business has always fascinated me, for this very reason, I have been working with a Mumbai based theatre group called “Banjara” as their financial advisor. My primary responsibilities at Banjara included gathering & distributing funds. I have also worked with directors, producers and designers to convey cohesive vision of Banjara’s productions. During my tenure at Banjara, I gained both valuable insight and had hands on experience with the workings of the entertainment industry. I gained sufficient practical experience in stage management, marketing and publicity for theatres, venue design and planning, financing, preproduction and facility management. Simultaneously, I have been working for Polaris Financial Technology Limited as a consultant since July, 2011. My job responsibilities at Polaris included optimizing “Business Process Management” product for Barclays and Llyods Banking Group. Altogether this has been a resourceful experience for me since I multitasked and learned various techniques and technologies used in business process optimization. The Ph.D. Program at MIT Sloan would provide the kind of exposure needed to broaden my thinking and undo my insular prejudices that might be still prevalent in me. In an institution of such confluence of people from every culture, nationality, religion and ideology...

... Hoague AP Lit and Composition, Period 1 15 Dec. 2013 Future Career With so many different job options available to pursue in the land of opportunity called America, I never really knew what I wanted to be. At a young age, I knew that school was the key to college and being successful, but it never helped me discover what I really wanted to with my life. It wasn’t until my dad took in a long time friend of his to stay with us for a while that I knew what I wanted to pursue in the future. My dad’s friend, Marcelo, was an architect who worked for Westfield, which I instantly recognized as the designers of the mall I would always go to on the weekends. He gave me a tour of his office, and I was intrigued by the complex programs he used and the 3Dimensional models he had created of malls Westfield planned to build. I fell in love with the innovation and creativity that was involved with architecture and knew I wanted to be an engineer or architect in the future. However, there is a distinct difference between the two that I saw. Engineering is solving a problem by modifying an existing product or creating a new product never seen before, while Architecture is creating different versions of the same basic design. I wanted to create something never seen before so I leaned towards engineering. Therefore, I decided to take an introduction to engineering course my Freshman year of high school. The class taught me the basics about programs such as 2DCad, Solidworks, a...

... General Motors Corporation was founded by William Durrant in 1902, since their conception they have produced nearly 450 million vehicles globally. The goliath corporation operates in virtually every country in the world. Up until the past decade GM was enjoying rapidly growing sales and revenues across the board. However, with the current economic meltdown the ability to capture and sustain marketshare while add to their bottom line has shown to be more than challenging. Through this global economic crisis business leaders are left no choice but to make critical decisions that will enable their corporations to survive. Change is prevalent and management has no choice but to face the fact that they have got to change in order to survive. I think changes will have to be made in all functions of business such as structure, wages, marketing, branding, logistics, management style, and technology. The auto industry today employs about ten percent of the workforce. This means that 1 out of every 10 Americans are tied to the auto industry in some function whether they are suppliers, dealers, consultants, accountants, auditors etc. GM is also one of the largest purchasers of U.S. steel, aluminum, iron, copper, plastics, rubber, electronics, and computer chips. The reality is that if GM can’t make a turn around and start posting profits the other businesses that thrive by supplying services to support GM’s operations or sell their products will also fail to survive, it’s like a domino...

...does not have to be too big. We at IITB tend to write long SOPs (1.5 to 2 pages) whereas IITM guys (who get better schools!)Usually write 0.75 page (max. 1 page). Basically, their SOPs are much more direct and to-the-point than ours. [5] REMEMBER THAT A SOP *MUST* BE ORIGINAL. Statement of Purpose I am applying to Stanford University for admission to the Ph.D. program in Computer Science. I am interested in Theoretical Computer Science, particularly in the Design and Analysis of Approximation Algorithms, Combinatory and Complexity Theory. My interest in Mathematics goes back to the time I was at school. This interest has only grown through my years in school and high school, as I have learnt more and more about the subject. Having represented India at the International Mathematical Olympiads on two occasions, I have been exposed to elements of Discrete Mathematics, particularly Combinatory and Graph Theory, outside the regular school curriculum at an early stage. The intensive training programs we were put through for the Olympiads have given me a lot of confidence in dealing with abstract mathematical problems. My exposure to Computer Science began after I entered the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), Bombay. The excellent facilities,...
