STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
“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 himself into it, he thirsts for more.”
I can still vividly recall the memory of the day I saw the labs of civil engineering
department in open house program at AGM College of Engineering Technology, Varur,
Karnataka nine years ago. 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. I
worked towards and secured admission for an undergraduate program in civil engineering
in AGM College of Engineering Technology, Varur, Karnataka.
Once I secured admission to one of the most competitive and rigorous civil engineering
programs in India, 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 start, my intention of preparation was to gain knowledge of the subject in depth rather
than just getting acceptable grades. My uncle who himself has been an executive engineer
in civil engineering added to my further inspiration to define my career goals.
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. My schooling
at elementary and high school has given and excellent command in basics of mathematics
and science and more importantly ignited in me strong interest in civil engineering.
In this ever-changing world of Engineering and Technology, where each new day sees a
spate 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.
Civil engineering as I believe 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
master’s program, I will be building on a strong foundation gained in the past years. My
strategy for graduate 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 Engineering & Operations Management which has
gained lot of prominence in recent years both in India and abroad. This interest has
intuited me to take advanced courses.
I am very interested in extracurricular activities especially playing soccer and attained

first place in university level match. I have also participated in many inter college
football matches in my under graduation. I have also been a part of National Cadet Corps
for two consecutive years which has taught me about discipline. Since completion of my
under-graduation I have been working in a private firm called Aminbhavi & Hegde
Consulting Engineers, for three years and have gained considerable in-depth knowledge
about civil engineering.
I am applying for your college 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 university
looks for, in a prospective student, is 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 are the most
important factors, which motivated me to choose your university.
All knowledge is in human mind, it requires only an awakening. Since I strongly believe
that your university would be an ideal place for me to pursue my graduate studies, I wish
to canalize my knowledge and make my life significant by joining your university.
