Statement of purpose

Thanks alot Jeff, you've been a great help. I really appreciate it. 

Thank you very much Jeff, unless you have any suggestions or corrections, I think that this is the version that I will go with. I really appreciate your help.

You are welcome.

I am very interested in the environment of scientific and technological research. Of all the scientific and engineering fields, electrical engineering interests me the most.  It has always intrigued me to no end.  I realized I have the calling and would like to gain further knowledge so that I can realize my fullest potential.  Of course, it would be icing on the cake if any of my work has any significance to the well being of our lives.

I am also very interested in the inter-disciplines of communication, signal processing, and electronics.  I know that I will do well in any of them. To me, these subjects are not simply things to be studied. I love to see something being made from my hands working. To be able to help others in the process is even better.  At the same time, these fields of study are important in the evolution of a nation.  I want to be part of this evolution.

During my undergraduate study, I studied electrical engineering with a focus on communication and had taken courses in control systems, power systems, signal processing, and electronics. I did many projects which included programming languages and simulation tools. Other projects included hardware design and firmware development.

My project for my B.Sc graduation was to simulate one of the 4G wireless technologies called Long Term Evaluation (LTE). Simulation of all the basic blocks of the system containing a transmitter, a receiver, and a channel) [No parenthesis] was performed under realistic conditions using Matlab. Result verification of the results was completed by comparing them our data with the actual ones results published in current scientific literature. Our simulation was very close in agreement. For this, I was awarded a perfect score. My GPA was 3.88 out of 4.

As for my working experience, as an embedded systems engineer, I worked at the Research and Development (R&D) department for [Company] Technologies.  The experience gained was directly related to the program that I am applying for now. One of my duties at the company was to evaluate wireless modules simultaneously; to ascertain, to anticipate and to solve inter-communication links and linkage. Also my duty involved in designing of Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs) and many electronics and controllers. I have used the C programming language extensively for firmware development from which I gained a my programming experience. In working at the R&D department, I have gained much experience in research, and product & technology development while working there. One of the more interesting projects was the design of electronic white boards, the modern version to a blackboard without all those messy chalk dust.  My part in the project was the PCB design of the pen and its wireless linkage to the board.

As part of my undergraduate study, I took an eight week internship at [Company]. I was introduced to the basics and management of VoIP (Voice Over internet Protocol) networks. 

 I firmly believe that this experience is crucial for any related future study I embark on. 

As for future plans, I intend to continue, if the stars permit, is to pursue my PhD dream at the same institution. On completion, I believe that I have all the proper tools to realize real world products from the knowledge and experience gained at []. 

As for my other interests, I like to participate in events, cultural or otherwise to meet people from all parts of the world.  I am fascinated with different, cultural backgrounds and to understand the way they are. I also like to read poetry and novels. Participating in scientific contests and events whenever the chance allows is something I always look for. Never know what serendipity one can find there.

 [University] is a place where I find and feel comfort to study at; not because of its excellent facilities and faculty, but its vibrant and varied student population.  I believe that it is the people who make the world and not the other way around.

Another experience I have is As part of my undergraduate study, I took an eight week internship during summer 2011 in [too detailed and adds no value] at [Company]. I have been was introduced to the basics and management of VoIP (Voice Over internet Protocol) networks. and how they can be managed. The internship was for 8 weeks.

This experience as a whole, I firmly believe that this experience is crucial for any related future study I embark on. 

As for future plans, I intend to continue, if the stars permit, is to pursue my PhD dream at the same institution. On completion, I believe that I have all the proper tools to realize real world products from the knowledge and experience gained at [] [or "your institution"]. Then I have the intention to start doing researches in the field of study and try to implement these studies as real world products.   

As for my other interests, I like to participate in events, cultural or otherwise to meet where people from all parts of the world.  I am fascinated with different cultures meet, and to get to know, cultural backgrounds and to understand the way they are. other culture and exchange knowledge, also I also like to reading poetry and novels. I love Participating in scientific contests and events whenever the chance allows is something I always look for.  Never know what serendipty one can find there.

[University] is a place where I find and feel comfortable to study at; not because of its excellent facilities and faculty, but its vibrant and varied student population.  I believe that it is the people who make the world and not the other way around. 

Once you are satisfied, repost and we can polish it further. :)
