  • Essay / Statement of Purpose for Mechanical Engineering

    Since my childhood, I have been fascinated and mystified by how machines work. Watching a simple arrangement of gears perform a complex function was nothing short of an illusion. I was always fascinated by games like Lego and Machine Mechanics because they demanded my utmost focus and attention. Taking apart and putting back together my toys has always given me a feeling of satisfaction. Overwhelmed by my fascination and curiosity, I chose science as a major in high school and finally mechanical engineering as a bachelor's degree specialization. During my undergraduate studies, I participated in many technical and non-technical events to keep up to date with the latest technological developments. I have participated in many TED-X conferences organized by my university. Through these lectures, I realized how simple concepts from various engineering fields could be integrated and converted into technology that could be used to ensure optimal durability and improve the efficiency of various mechanical processes. To test my theoretical knowledge, I participated in “SAE Mini Baja”, an annual event organized by the SAE - Society for Automobile Engineers. Of the 115 teams that participated, our team made up of 25 members obtained 83rd position in the general ranking. I was the senior member of the team and was responsible for the design and manufacturing of the suspension system, an important part of a 4-wheel drive off-road vehicle. I also helped my colleagues with logistics and production planning. The event allowed me to discover the practical applications of many engineering concepts, giving me new thinking and access to new possibilities. I was also able to hone my management skills and improve my leadership qualities by managing a group of bu...... middle of paper ......ion is the norm of the day. Entrepreneurs favorably consider the creation of manufacturing or service units in addition to the usual commercial units.
