As an Indian student, I am eager to join the competitive master's program in MIS at XXXX University, motivated by my creative ideas and my current one-year internship in Dubai, UAE. This opportunity is providing me with innovative knowledge and up-to-date expertise, and I am enthusiastic about sharing my experiences working with a leading company in one of the most dynamic global settings for digital advancement. I aspire to be remembered by my teachers and peers in the MIS Program at Northwestern as the Indian student brimming with ideas and passionate about harnessing the vast potential of the Indian workforce in MIS, particularly in healthcare informatics. Thus, I am very much looking forward to learning from the faculty at XXXX, especially Professors XXXX and XXXX.
Until May 2016, I am completing my internship with XXXX LLC Dubai, where I am involved in various roles in Industrial Customer Services supporting Digital Factory and Process Drives DF & PD. My duties include responding to calls and emails from international clients, managing and editing data in the company’s CRM tool, migrating CRM data to an online service portal, and maintaining the Siemens Global Service platform (GSP) and Corporate Master Data (CMD) used by end customers throughout the Gulf.
I am keen to learn everything possible in your program about Central Budget Management Systems (CBMS), particularly concerning healthcare informatics. I am particularly impressed by the work MIS at XXXX has done in designing a healthcare app for the local children's hospital.
Northeastern is my top choice not only because of its high ranking but also due to the ongoing research and interdisciplinary approach in diverse areas, especially manufacturing. Your program is perfect for a student like me with a broad and varied background in technology. I appreciate the research opportunities in MA and the collaborations between XXXX and innovative companies like Samsung that support your faculty’s efforts in pattern recognition, among other things.
I have always been aware that I come from a country expected to soon have the largest population in the world, surpassing China by mid-century. I have grown up during a time of significant progress driven by technological advancement.
As a child, I watched with great enthusiasm how the cell phone transformed Indian society for the better. My long-term dreams and visions involve employing thousands of highly qualified Indians in MIS, making our world more connected, especially in healthcare informatics. The world needs India to help manage its healthcare information because no one does it better, and we can do it for much less. This is my motto.
I consider myself a cosmopolitan Indian. Although born in India, I have never stayed in one place for long, having lived in Qatar, Singapore, Dubai, and then back in India for high school and college. I believe that much of my nation suffers not just from corruption—though we have our share—but from sheer negligence. India already has the world’s largest population of skilled laborers and produces half a million engineers annually. We have the world’s highest concentration of educated youth compared to any other nation, yet only a small percentage can find work in the global economy. This is why I want my colleagues to remember me as the person who came early and stayed late, inspired by the great promise of MIS for my people and the excitement it generates. I aim to be the go-to person for MIS-related issues, starting as a network engineer. I look forward to a long, prosperous career helping industries make better decisions and improve network security. After gaining sufficient knowledge and industrial experience, I hope to return to my home country and contribute by starting my own consultancy, providing specialized consulting to local clients to enhance their market share and boost our economy.
MIS is transforming my country, and I want to be at the center of this action. Our railway network, the largest in the world, the IRCTC, now processes more data per second than any other web portal globally. Millions of new apps and networks are needed to connect Indians and propel the country forward. We aim to be a developed nation by 2020.
I am eager to be an integral part of this evolving landscape, and I see XXXX as the ultimate springboard for my journey. I look forward to contributing to research on Cloud Business Process Management Systems, enabling micro-market companies and startups. I aim to achieve expertise in CRMs (Customer Relationship Modules), the backbone of all business transactions and services, particularly post-sale. Each day, I increasingly appreciate the value of maintaining this information on a cloud server, which reduces a company’s downtime, lessens the load on servers and computer systems, and is beneficial for business by reducing service and maintenance costs. Easy-to-use interfaces are so efficient that users can create social media portals in a single day.
I find these developments incredibly exciting, and I thank you for considering my application to your competitive program.
