Statement of Purpose

Ever since I was a kid, I have had an affinity for mathematics and
technology. I distinctly remember the day we got a computer at the house
and I was unable to stay away from it from then on.  It was evident that
my career had to take a path that involved technical understanding. While
I was looking for various career options in high school, I was introduced
to the world of Data Science. 

The first step towards materialising this dream of mine was when I took
up the science stream in my high school. I learned the fundamentals of
computers and was exposed to all the different avenues that could be
persuaded after graduation. The natural progression was enrolling into a
B.Tech course in Computer Science at Chitkara University. There was
no looking back from that point, I went all the way in discovering all I
could about Data Science, Operating Systems etc. My graduate program
taught me volumes about how diverse these fields in Science are, but
what intrigued me the most was how Data Science was so well integrated
into innumerable areas such as business, health, and
communication.Additionally, I was enrolled in the specialization of Data
Science offered by my educational institute.In addition to this, I had made
projects covering the Data Science field.This intense appreciation I found
for Data Science inspired me to apply for MS in this field.

During graduation, I was introduced to Data Science, and I took it upon

myself to lay a solid foundation for myself in the subject. Now, I wish to
gain a more focused specialization of the field that will aid in developing
professional skills required by the IT industry. I am truly convinced that
the academic knowledge I acquire at a Masters Program will
increase opportunities for me, and I shall be honored if I am considered
for admission into the Masters in Data Science at your prestigious
institution.

Sincerely,
