Areas of Interest
Immediate Goals
I plan to work towards a Ph. D. with a focus on Databases. I would also like
to follow up my interests in Computer Systems through my course work. I feel
that this should be my next step on my road to a research career in Computer
Science. I would be most willing to work directly for a Ph.D. if it is possible.
However, I would be willing to do M.S. as a first step towards obtaining my
Ph.D.
Academic Background
Throughout 12 years of schooling, I had always been among the top ranking
students in the class. I was ranked 47th out of 80,000 students (99.94%ile) in
the national level entrance examinations to the IITs. I was ranked 2nd in the
state level entrance examinations for the state engineering colleges. Currently
with G.P.A. of 9.00 on scale of 10.00, I am among the top 5% of the students of
my batch in the Institute. This high level of consistency in my academic record
makes me feel confident enough to hold my own againgst the very best.
Teaching Experience
I was a teaching assistant for the fresher's course CS101: Computer Pro-
gramming and Utilization during Fall 93. I was also an organiser during unix
workshops and C language workshop conducted by students of our department.
This has made me confident that I will prove to be a very good teacher.
Summing Up
I am aware of the hard work and perseverence necessary for research work
and I know that it is not always as exciting as the published results
seem to indicate. Nevertheless, I am sure that my aptitude and drive
will see me through the challenge. Looking forward to joining University
of Wisconsin at Madison.
