sample Study plan for Scholarship

Study Plan for Graduate Studies............
Academic Background:I have completed my undergraduate studies in Electrical engineering from “ABCDUniversity of Engineering and Technology”, , Pakistan, in March 2012, with a CGPA of 3.86 out of 4.00. I was an active somehow indulgent student among othersduring my undergraduate studies, very often involved in many curricular andco-curricular activities. In fact, I was up to the mark and honored in the top 1’slist of 120 students in my undergraduate class. If observed by the meritoriousefforts I remain very competent and I have passed all entrance tests conductedby the academic institution of my education with high achievements and securedoverall 4th place in the whole district.I did my final year thesis project on “Design, development and fabrication ofunder/over voltage relay using static devices” with the group of five membersin which I was made the Group Leader. The fabricated relay can be used for theautomatic protection of house hold appliances and power system against voltagerelated problems. In this project, I learned and researched automated controland protection using Circuit Breakers and Relays along with other high speedautomatic control and protecting equipment’s involved in automation of themodern systems. While working on this project I found strong motivation inmyself towards graduate study and research in the area of power systemautomation.At present, I am working as a Maintenance Engineer in Dawlance Group of Companies(the leading household appliances company in Pakistan); my job’s majorresponsibilities include; Maintenance and Automation of industry’s power systemand machines along with the planning and the proper allocation of availableresources to achieve the smooth and efficient operation of the plant byconducting routine and reactive preventive maintenance activities. Here, inDawlance, I have learned, researched and practically implemented theapplications of electrical automation engineering in manufacturing processalong with the extensive knowledge of Electrical automation devices likedigital relays, vacuum and oil circuit breakers, Programmable LogicControllers, Programmable automation controllers , Human Machine Interface andinstrumentation devices. Furthermore, I Led the project “Energy saving by theoptimization of electric motor usage” with annual savings of 1.2 Million PKR byconducting efficiency analysis, Right sizing of installed motors, formulatingthe saving calculations and obtaining USAID OFFER by negotiations with vendorsand USAID audit authorities.Also because of ardent interest and motivation towards power system automation,I was selected for 16 weeks internship in National Transmission & DispatchCompany; the sole electric power transmission company of Pakistan. Where Igained quality level knowledge and working experience about Grid SystemOperations (GSO), Protection and Instrumentation (P & I), SCADA, Meteringand Testing (M & T). Along with these technical aspects I also earned practicalknowledge about transmission system planning including Power Flow Studies,Reactive power compensation studies, Reliability and Stability Analysis withrespect to interconnection of distributed generation with transmission system.My work at NTDC was highly praised and I was awarded with the certificate ofappreciation by the senior management.

My Personality:By fact, I am socially active person with friendly nature, a good communicatorindeed who is blessed with many friends. I keep a keen view to the reality oflife thus approach people with positive mind and attitude and always prove tobe helpful with honest efforts and true dedication. Besides that I always feelvery joyous and fortunate to meet and greet people belonging to differentbackgrounds and cultures. As such meetings are always important because theyprove to be beneficial in future also it makes things easy to cope whether oneworks or studies in his own country or outside the country.

Study Plan in China:I would like to apply for the Master's Degree in Electrical Power system andits automaton in China because from my current industrial job experience,past internship and my final year project I come to know the vast practicalapplications of the automation engineering, this caught my attention andcreated a thirst of knowledge in me to study my chosen course. My motto is towork in an international field related to Electrical Engineering. Therefore, Iwould like to gain deeper theoretical and practical knowledge in starting andmanaging most innovative projects. During my studies, with great hiddenabilities in myself I will try to come up with the best of everything; toaccompany the professors and university colleagues in carrying out research andexploring for immense exciting industrial mysteries in the field of powersystem Automation. After completion of my master’s studies I hope to be able totake part in maximizing my country’s research technology in such fields tobenefit its economy and enhance the living standards of my compatriots.I believe that this Masters Program will provide me with the chance to get toknow with Electrical systems and affiliates me dedicatedly to the industries,which are living examples of the art of Electrical and automation engineering.I hope that I can gain more experience in dealing with situations, peoples,systems and demands which will be of a great help in my future career.

Reasons to study in China: Now the question arises, “Why China?” Reading the books, watchingthe news, analyzing and observing the people of China, I am really impressed bythe way these individuals have proved themselves to be dedicated to their workand with true efforts they have set China as a successful example for otherthird world or developed countries. The fast growing economy, technologicaladvancement and the global ranking education institutes of China with highreputation makes a great aspiration to the students and professionals for thebetter career perspectives. Thus such kind of positivity has boosted my confidencefurther and I am highly satisfied with the decision I have taken. Moreover,China’s diverse cultural norms and values, the famous gentle hospitality of its people and Pakistan-China all weather friendly relations since past to promote bilateral trade , acceptance and peace to both sides in great clarity make me feel China as my second homeland; also my family fully supports my choice for China being my preference for graduate studies. All these reasons put togethermake China an ideal place for me to do my Masters degree.Concluding it, with high hopes I believe this application will receive your favourable consideration and I will be happy to provide any additional information you may need. I look forward to receiving your reply.

How to get Acceptance letter from Chinese University professor

How to find and contact a Supervisor/Professor regarding MS, PhD

Students who need to contact supervisors for CSC scholarships for MS and PhD in China. They
have to find supervisors first and then contacting them.

How to find Supervisors/Professor

1) Find the list of universities, you want to apply for by writing in google.com. e.g., “Universities
in China”. You will get whole list of universities there. also you can see in file section there is list
of universities whose under CSC

2) Finalize your area of interest; you can finalize your area of interest by looking at your final
year project, subject in which you are best, some already done research or some tool in your
filed you are best for example programmers in Computer science field. So find as many
keywords as you can from them, for example programmers and CS people can use keyword,
image processing or computer vision or data analysis etc.

3) Open google.com and write the research area of interest with some university name whom
you have already found out in first point given above.

4) You will get the results from google about the department links/professors links/papers from
that university published etc., relevant to your area of interest b. You can open the links of
professors and departments links or papers to find out your relevant professor/professors.

How to contact Supervisor/Professor

1) Professors are doing advanced research work, which you have not done, but may be some
tools or techniques, which professor is using, you have worked on or you have basic knowledge
of professor work etc.

2) Before contacting the professor, you must know that they have not much time to look at
your emails. So be careful for the instructions given below

3) Read out the all the professors profiles very carefully and see which one is related to your
area of interest.


By profile reading of professor I mean to read their
(i) Research papers

ii) Projects

4) Finalize one or two or more professors based on who is most understandable and relevant to
the area of interest you are going for. You will get this thing cleared after you have read their
projects and their research papers

5) Then after the few professors you have finalized. Read with very extreme attention their
research papers. Ask your seniors or teachers to help you understanding them

6) See and find that how your area of interest fits in them. For example if you are good in some
subject /tool and they have already used it.

7) You must understand fully the ideas presented in the paper.
8) Then start writing an email with a suitable heading such as “Request for supervision of
MS/PhD”.

9) Body of email should not be much long or short.

10) Start email by introducing with your name and the university, country you are from.

11) Then mention that while going through profiles of professors, you stumbled upon that
professor profile and have read his papers, mention the paper/papers names you have already
read of that professor and in one line the basic idea of paper/papers you understood. Then next
line you mention how you link your area of interest with his that paper or papers whom you
have already mentioned. This thing is quite tricky; you have to be good in it. For example I work
in Computer science field and I write that “I read your paper “abc” in which you have
implemented xyz algorithm using xyz filter. I have also implemented same kind of algorithm in
which I have used abc filter with boosting classifiers and implemented the code using OpenCV
libraries.”. This is just an example, you can write better version of it as it is just a sample line.
Also if you can give some genuine idea on which you want to work on, then it is best. But you
should be writing technically when presenting such idea. These ideas come into your mind
when you read many papers in one area of interest.

12) This thing will let him understand that you are a serious person and you have read his
papers and you want to do serious work

13) Then ending lines that you would like to work for MS/PhD under his/her supervision,

14) You can mention sometimes in first email also the scholarships you want to apply for
Chinese Govt Scholarship

15) Put formal endings



16) Attach research CV

17) Research Proposal

18) Best is to use University official email address, if you do not have any university email
address, then make a good email ID, do not make funny IDs, such as Romeo447@gmail.com or
some jokes like it.
