LETTER OF MOTIVATION

My career aim is to do fundamental research work in the field of Microelectronics, have my own lab for carrying out my research work, and lead a team under my supervision. I have been working towards this since my childhood. I have been maintaining my academic curriculum to the highest level till now. I have been consistently in the top 2 ranks in my class throughout my schooling; secured District Ranks in the Class X board examination Class XII board examination. I was also awarded THE BEST OUTGOING STUDENT awards during my X and XII classes based on my overall performances during my academic career during my schooling. I have also participated and secured many prizes in various Olympiads and other prestigious examinations. Even after striving hard and getting into one of top 10 institutes in India, I continued to stay focused and have been consistently performing well and maintaining good GPAs with a CGPA of 9.3 (Max 10) after 4 semesters. Apart from academic performances, I have also been really active in co-curricular activities and sports. I was a member of my schools Throw Ball Team and an active participant in debates, oratorical competitions. I am a part of my colleges official Robotics Club Robotics and Machine Intelligence (RMI) and have conducted various workshops inside our college and also in other outside colleges on Robotics. I am also a trained yoga practitioner. I practice yoga every day. Various campaigns against global warming have brought a sense awareness within me to help save mother earth. I have planted many trees and persuaded others to do so as a part of Project Green Hands. All these clearly indicate that I have been consistently developing my overall personality apart from maintaining my academic stature. I am being consistently motivated by my parents and teachers/professors throughout my career which helped and is helping me to excel in all fields till now. We are currently working for the Texas Instruments Analog Design Contest. We have got through the Phase I. We are currently working on a low cost analog dc-dc converter for electricity powered PV paneled vehicles. This is serving as a stepping stone in realizing my dream and giving me an exposure of designing electronic circuits and fabricating them. My guide motivated me in the field of research and advised me to pursue higher studies and take up a research oriented career. He wanted me to do my higher studies abroad to get an exposure of foreign system of education and research methods which is way different from Indian system. This made me think and helped me to look into options abroad for working towards my goal. My Electronics Professor in my Institute, Professor Dr. N. Ammasai Gounden, who had taken subjects namely Analog Electronics and Linear Integrated Circuits developed my interest further and helped me get a strong base in Microelectronics which is and will come a long way in achieving my dream goal. He

has been always a source of motivation and has also suggested me to pursue higher studies abroad to get a better research environment and exposure to their system of education. Then, I had a small briefing from DAAD in my institute regarding the various opportunities in Germany. I came to know about the magnitude of research work carried out in Germany and also the various scholarships offered by DAAD, especially the WISE scholarship. This even more thrilled me. Then, I learned about the WISE scholarship and started exploring various German universities for People working in the field of Microelectronics and Related Branches. This is how I found out Technische Universitat Berlin and Professor Dr. Roland Thewes, the work carried out by him and his team, the various facilities like the ultra tech labs available there and the magnitude of research work done and the importance given to research work in the institute. I e-mailed him explaining my interest in research and seeking a chance for carrying out a research internship with DAAD funding, which was warmly invited and accepted. I have received official invitation from their side which even more deepened my interest in Microelectronics. This WISE scholarship will definitely help me a long way in realizing my dream of pursuing a research career in my life by helping me to do my research internship in a reputed German University, thus motivating me and improving my self confidence in working towards my goal. The scholarship will let me gain valuable exposure to the educational system in Germany, Research methods and Culture there; thus, might make Germany a strong option as a place for pursuing my higher studies and research work in the future. It will definitely motivate my research interests and curriculum and my passion for higher studies abroad, especially Germany. All my works and endeavors till now towards achieving my dream goal of pursuing a research career in the field of Microelectronics, will be moving in the right direction once I get this WISE scholarship and carryout my research internship in Technische Universitat Berlin, which is one of the leading institutes for Electronics, especially in Microelectronics, with various advanced facilities required for works of that magnitude. I am eagerly looking forward for my research internship in Germany with WISE scholarship as a positive and strong step towards realizing my dream goal. This will definitely come a long way in my career and passion for research and will act as a strong motivation for me. This opportunity will motivate me to pursue my higher studied in Germany and carryout fundamental research work there.
