Name: Dildar Singh Program: MENG (Industrial Engineering) Statement of Purpose I’m DILDAR SINGH, presenting myself as an applicant for a student visa to pursue the ‘Masters in Industrial engineering ' at the

University

of Windsor, Ontario, Canada. In today’s

world

, there are so many disciplines to choose from for everyone that lets students like me to choose the study of their choice depending on the passion that they have for the area they are interested in. I would like to take

this

opportunity

to thank the “

University

of Windsor” for giving me

this

opportunity

to showcase myself. Educational background: As a child, I was always intrigued by the working of complex mechanisms and equipment. I used to spend a lot of

time

trying to explore and figure out their principle. In school, I found myself drawn towards subjects that required in-depth analysis and logical thinking. I was awed by their simple fundamentals which form the governing basis for a lot of machinery. To understand these concepts, I took part in fairs and practical workshops.

This

exposure taught me the importance of simple and practical

design

. To understand the principle and practical aspects of designing and manufacturing, I decided to study Mechanical engineering in college, which deals with machine

design

, manufacturing, and production. I did my schooling from M.D. Bhatt. Memorial Senior Secondary School, Ludhiana where I completed my 10th

with

Management

through courses like “Engineering Material”, “

Design

of Machines”, ” Product

Design

and

Development

” and which opened my eyes to the latest materials and

design

methods. The course in “Static and Numerical Method”, “Industrial Automation” and “Industrial Engineering and

Management

” highlighted the importance of effective team coordination for project execution in quality construction practice and exposed me to a plethora of applications of Industrial

cost. These projects have made me run over new fascinating points, which helped me to learn and understand more about the subjects. These courses and projects have not only given me more knowledge of various aspects of engineering, but

also

a defined path to turn my childhood interest into a lifelong passion. Apart from academic

work

and projects, I am quite active in extra-curricular activities. I was the Head of Society of Mechanical Engineers at Guru Nanak Dev Engineering College Ludhiana. Here, I organized various industrial visits, workshops, exhibitions and technical events for students throughout the year

point of view. Getting a Masters Degree in Mechanical Engineering (Automotive) from

University

of Windsor can act as a stepping stone for success for me to embark on a fulfilling career. Why Master of Engineering – (Industrial)? During

this

period, I had the

opportunity

to interact with top industry professionals and got to know about the importance of optimization and

management

in business.

Further

, the problems we faced during manufacturing and interaction with professionals made me realize that

management

and engineering are two integral

part

Suggestion

parts

of any industry.

This

incident has motivated me to do a Masters in Industrial Engineering. Industrial engineering is all about preventing problems before they arise, and to make things

work

effectively and efficiently using various methods

such

as lean manufacturing, supply chain

management

, and operation

research

. As an industrial engineer, I would be able to solve problems using

management

techniques along with analytical concepts. I have understood that

this

field is

continuously

seemingly without interruption

continually

evolving and requires professionals to be dynamic and adaptable. I believe

this

field will make me improve myself and bring out the maximum potential in me.

Thus

, I would like to pursue my masters in Industrial Engineering at the

University

of Windsor. Why Canada? Choosing a

country

for studies for an International student is a very important task, on par with choosing the right

university

. A lot of

research

is necessary to choose the right

country

and for various reasons that I am going to mention made me choose Canada over the others. Canada was the

first

and final choice for me when I was in a phase to choose a

country

for my Masters course due to some

straight forward

free from ambiguity

straightforward

reasons. The

education

system in Canada is top notch in all sorts of ways and ranked as the best

country

in terms of

education

.

In addition

to that Canada is safe for international students and

also

a peaceful nation with best health care facilities. Every institution in Canada stands among the top in their own specialized fields. Every college/

university

provides a dynamic, innovative and challenging environment in which one can create and nurture their true potential. The on point
