STATEMENT OF PURPOSE

Program Applied: PhD


Branch: Civil Engineering

“Education is a tool that puts one on a fast track to acquiring knowledge and personality that sets one
apart from the crowd. It is one bottom less hole; no matter how much one pours himselfinto it, he thirsts
for more.”

I can still vividly recall the memory of the day I saw the labs of civil engineering department at university college
of engineering, Patiala seven years ago at the time of counselling. Its machinery and the testing machines
interested me a lot. I believe that the best way to predict the future is to make it. With this belief, I always planned
and executed my life towards predetermined goals. So, I had taken admission for an undergraduate program in
civil engineering in university college of engineering Patiala

Once I secured admission to civil engineering programs at Punjabi university, I structured view of what I might do
here. But I found civil engineering even more interesting and challenging than what I had imagined. Right from the
second year, my aim is to gain knowledge and subject in depth rather than just getting marks though I was able to
put up good marks on board.

About Undergraduate study, I feel is not a denouement of what I call a journey towards excellence and
competence. Graduate study a sequel to undergraduate study opens up newer avenues to explore and gives one a
wider range of career objectives. In this ever-changing world of Engineering and Technology, where each new day
sees a state of new concepts and applications and each passing day makes them obsolete, I want to attain the
highest level of education and transcend new horizons in the chosen field. The vast application potential and
tremendous scope for high career in civil engineering always fascinated me and I am keen to continue my
academic pursuit in this field.

Then I had started preparing for gate and try to take admission in M tech program. This dream come true in 2017
when I had taken admission in T.I.E.T in M.E. structures and try to make a strong foundation of concepts. Being
a Civil engineer, I believe that the civil engineering is the only field where one’s work can be seen and felt directly
by the senses and anything done stays forever to the credit. I feel that this is the field which requires lot of
patience, perseverance and management skills to be successful. These are qualities which need to be nurtured with
lot of motivation and hard work and my college proved to me a right place for this objective.

Now at this junction of my career, I am confident that when I make the transition into Doctorate program, I will be
building on a stronger foundation gained in the past years. My strategy for master study will, therefore, be a
prolonged one where in I shall be consolidating my knowledge in a more specialized way and acquire the skills
used for the research. My field of interest in civil engineering is structural engineering and Earthquake
Engineering which has gained lot of prominence in recent years both in India and abroad. This interest has
intuited me to learn new things.

I am applying for your institute on an account of its excellent research facilities combined with distinguished and
dedicated faculty. My admission into your esteemed institution is of paramount importance for my career. With my
theoretical knowledge and practical skill, I am well equipped to meet your expectations. I am confident that I
would surely synchronize to your standards. I hope I will be favorably considered for admission for graduate study
with possible financial assistance.

Having made this statement of my objectives it is my belief that what your institute looks for, in a prospective
student, with a strong academic background and the will to perform and deliver. An extremely distinguished
faculty, a milieu replete with academic activity and the state-of-the-art research facilities in the field of Civil
Engineering are the most important factors, which motivated me to choose your institute.

All knowledge is in human mind, it requires only an awakening. Since I strongly believe that your institute would
be an ideal place for me to pursue my Doctorate studies, I wish to canalize my knowledge and make my life
significant by joining IIT Ropar.

Thanks for considering the application
