Please have a glance and try to concise it, If possible.

STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
I am a Assistant Professor in Department of Civil Engineering of Dr B R Ambedkar National Institute of Technology, Punjab, India. Upon receiving the Graduate degree I felt completely satisfied with my decision to choose Civil Engineering as my carrier option as it has revealed my pragmatic and down to earth approach to tackle the problems. My enthusiasm coupled with a scope for innovation forced me to opt for higher education while I was working after my Graduation. So I opt for Post-graduation with majors in Structure and Construction Engineering.

During my four semesters in Post-graduation, I have taken various courses like Earthquake Resistance Design of structures, Advanced Structural Analysis, Advanced Construction Practice, Concrete Structure Laboratory etc. From the above courses, I have learned the fundamentals of them and I firmly believe it can applied in the field through meaningful research.

For my esteemed PhD research topic, I am interested in studying about is Concrete Technology. I would also like to learn more about the strength of the Recycled Concrete Aggregate and Recycled Aggregate Concrete, its durability property and replacement of pozzolanic content by using glass powder, copper slag, silica flume, metkaolin, fly ash, rice husk ash etc. I also want to deepen my knowledge about its physical and mechanical properties as well.

During my education at high school and university, I took part in a student's association which helped me develop many key skills such as organization, leadership and teamwork. This experience has taught me adaptability and developed my skills of public speaking and diplomacy. My strengths are my consistency, capacity for hard work, and my ability to work individual as well as in a team.

I choose Xi'an Jiaotong Liverpool University (XJTLU) because it is one of the prestigious universities in China. Besides, it is well-known for the good quality of its educational system and the capacity for research and innovation. Getting my esteemed PhD here can give me an international cultural dynamism experience. I think, it would be a perfect start of my career, and I could build up good relationships in my profession, and personal life also. Study at XJTLU could be the nucleus to accomplish my goals, as ample opportunities exist for students like me to initiate independent study and to become involved in active research programs, both experimental and theoretical.

With my strong academic background and relevant activities, I am confident that I would be qualified and able to perform well in this program. I am also confident that by given this opportunity, I can contribute to the ongoing work at XJTLU graduate program in a productive manner. I hope the above experiences, knowledge, skills and motivation make me convenient to be accepted in XJTLU. Thank you very much for considering my application.
