Sample Statement of Purpose for MS Industrial

28th April 2011


Engineering
I am a senior student in my under graduate program in Mechanical Engineering at the reputed Birla Institute
of Technology and Science. Education has been my supreme strength. I have always tried my best to excel
in academics and produced good results consistently. I am particularly interested in mathematics and
physics and their profound implications in day-to-day life have strongly inspired me to pursue undergraduate
studies in engineering. Perhaps, my first biggest challenge towards this was to obtain admission in a reputed
institute. In 2001, I qualified to BITS, Pilani securing a berth among the top 900 students from all over India.

Education in BITS has given me a strong foundation in Engineering. The exhaustive nature of courses and a
competitive grading system has instilled in me a desire to delve deeper into the subjects and deliver the best
in me. My sophomore and junior years consisted of several courses on basic sciences and mathematics that
have immensely helped me appreciate my core discipline courses and contribute to projects. Following
these two years, I did an eight-week summer internship at a large-scale fastener making industry. - Sundram
Fasteners Ltd, Chennai. I worked on the design of an autoloader for grinding machines in the Special
Purpose Machine department. This first industrial experience has envisaged in me, the importance of
Industrial Engineering and spurred me to consider this as my career and future.

Among the various core courses I did in my senior year, I particularly enjoyed optimization and operations
research. Other courses like Design of machine elements, Transport phenomena, computer-aided design,
Dynamics of machines and vibrations have helped me obtain a very good understanding of mechanical
engineering as a whole. I have scored excellent grades in my field courses. To add to this, I also stood first
in the class in Solid Mechanics and third in Production Techniques. To further my interest in what I have
learnt before, I chose Flexible Manufacturing Systems as one of my electives and acquired good grade in it.

As a part of the Practice School programme of our undergraduate curriculum, I am presently working as an
intern for one full semester at Tata Motors, Pune - the leading automobile organization in India. Highlights of
this experience are:

- Worked on methods for improving capacity of gear production


- Learnt about “Kaizen” as a concept to achieve results
- Value Stream Mapping – analyzed its importance in scheduling/routing of jobs, inventory control and
management
- Employing “Pokayoke”, a foolproof mechanism to prevent the recurrent aberrations in the processes

In my attempt to strengthen my theoretical knowledge, I will be taking a course on ‘Production, Planning and
Control” as my elective in the forthcoming semester. I am also looking forward to involving myself with a
project on “Decision support system”

It has been a very refreshing and enriching time during schooling and undergraduate education. What sets
me apart from others is my determination to persevere at difficult situations. I do my work with utmost
sincerity and dedication. My interests include sports and sketching. I have actively been a part of all
academic, cultural and sport activities on campus, both as a participant and as a host.

I have set a goal for myself to explore industrial engineering for specialization, advanced learning, and future
career, through graduate studies.

I have an ardent desire to pursue my graduate program in your esteemed university, expecting to be richly
benefited from an extremely dedicated faculty, extensive research facilities and an environment endowed
with a plethora of academic activities. I hope that my academic accomplishments, test scores, and my
exposure to industry practices may be viewed favorably for admission to your graduate school, for pursuing
a master’s program in industrial engineering.

I do hope that I may be offered admission in your graduate school. I assure that I will strive hard to match
the high standards set by your university, and complete the graduate program successfully, earning good
credits, by contributing my best possible to this field. .

Thank you

"What sets me apart from others is my determination to persevere at difficult situations. I do my work with
utmost sincerity and dedication." - Really like this part because it indeed shows dedication and
determination. This statement of purpose graduate school engineering also shows dedication and
strengths of a candidate and doesn't focus too much on weaknesses. Hope it helps those who are
working on their statement of purpose!
