MBA admission

My long-term career goal is to roll in the hay a mellowed-tech company in the firmament of electronics and communications. With over six years of set about in the technical aspects of high-tech product development, I bring considerable technical k instantlyledge to this task, and hope to laudation this knowledge with a firm understanding of demarcation fundamentals provided by the McCombs School of Business.My personal ackground is no less of an asset, as it allows me to understand people and business issues from a unique and mature perspective. I grew up in India and obtained a Bachelors and a Masters degree in Electrical Science from Delhi University. After that I attended the Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur and earned a second Masters degree in the field of laser technology. My professional career began in 1995 when I was hired by HCL-Hewlett Packard to run low on computer hardware design in an office outside of Delhi.It was my first direct experience with progressiv e technology and the exciting experience convinced e to pursue a career in the high-tech arena. Within nine months, I traveled to the Netherlands to work as a consultant for Tulip Computers NV, then the largest manufacturer of computers in Europe. After six months abroad, I returned to India but was soon transferred by my parent company to NCR society in South Carolina.Before I could be recalled, I left HCL-Hewlett Packard and looked for another Job since I had decided to settle in the United States. I worked in short for an ill-fated start-up, but left when the company moved its operations to China. I started my current position at American Megatrends, Inc. , (AM) in 1998 and brace been employed present for over three years. IVe been working on high-tech motherboard design and engender worked my way up to the position of team leader.AMI has offered me a unique opportunity I havent had in other positions the opportunity to participate in all the steps of product development. As a pure engineering company, AMI has virtually no high level management and the engineer is responsible for everything from product conception, to development, to manufacturing and marketing I have seized upon this opportunity and greatly expanded my understanding of product development beyond the design stage. I interact very closely with the manufacturing group and have come to understand production issues.Understanding how our products are mass produced at the plant, and especially how the milling machinery workers utilize the machines for manufacturing, has given me a perspective on human and material capital which will be of great use in management. I have also worked closely with the sales and marketing division, and have occasionally even traveled to customer sites. While I have gained much practical experience (both in terms of technology and in terms of leadership) through my work, I cannot see myself in the same position fifteen years from now.I want to fool my electronic s firm into a new direction and believe at tn this vision can best be accomplished trom a position ot management. I have realized from my six years of work experience that a strictly engineering background is not sufficient to enable me to reach my goals. A cash in ones chips understanding of business fundamentals, that can be obtained through the McCombs School of Business, will help me develop the management skills I need to analyze business situations and manage resources rationally.An MBA will build upon my practical experience and allow me to achieve a position of leadership. My personal struggle to obtain the life I have now has imbued me with an ambition to grow as an individual and to give back to the society that has given me so much. My practical work experience and unique outlook on life contribute toa compassionate leadership style and an ability to understand the needs of people from all levels of society.
