My journey in computer science began early, as gadgets were no stranger to me. From the age
of five, I was fascinated by technology, but my passion truly ignited when I delved into the
underlying structures that power modern tech. Learning how 0s and 1s could transform
complex, unprocessed data into informations that shapes our modern life was a revelation. This
curiosity then expanded to machine learning, which I found beautifully similar to teaching a
child, though here, learning happens within circuits and electric currents rather than neurons
and cells. These experiences not only fueled my interest in computer science but also led me
to pursue a structured approach to learning in this field.
To strengthen my foundations, I prepared for and passed the qualifier exam for the IIT Madras
BS degree in Data Science and Programming, an achievement that reinforced my commitment
to the field. This experience also drove me to dive into areas like data analysis, automation,
and machine learning. Through self-study I learned Python,SQL and HTML which are the most
necessary tools for a Data scientist.
Alongside academics, I have honed valuable leadership skills. As the party leader in the Young
Indians Parliament (YIP), I guided my team in generating ideas and driving discussions. This
role taught me the importance of collaboration, creativity, and effective communication—
qualities that I am excited to bring to TUKE, where teamwork and community are highly valued.
TUKE stands out to me for its focus on hands-on learning and its strong research culture. The
university’s collaborations with Slovak industries and its emphasis on real-world applications
offer the ideal environment for me to apply theoretical knowledge in practical settings, gaining
insights into professional practices. I am particularly interested in contributing to and learning
from TUKE’s Intelligent Information Systems Lab (IISLAB), where I hope to work alongside
faculty and peers on innovative projects. Additionally, TUKE’s Erasmus exchange
opportunities will allow me to engage with diverse perspectives and global advancements in
computer science.
In the long term, I hope to become a Data scientist who creates meaningful, ethical solutions
to modern challenges. TUKE, with its strong academic community and focus on
interdisciplinary research, is the ideal place for me to grow toward this goal. I am confident
that, given the opportunity, I will contribute actively to TUKE and gain the knowledge and
skills to make a positive impact through technology. Thank you for considering my application.
I am enthusiastic about the chance to join TUKE’s esteemed Informatics program and look
forward to contributing to and learning from this vibrant academic community.
