Hi,
I'm a beginner here in edulix, so I may miss a few important details. But any help would be most appreciated.
Tests-
GRE - 318, Quant- 161, Verbal - 157, AWA - (expecting 3.5 - 4)
TOEFL - Planning on sitting in October. Should get above 100 hopefully.
Academics -
Manipal Institute of Technology, B. Tech in Mechanical, 8.00 CGPA
Electives in College - Advanced Aircraft Structures, FEM, CFD, Composites, PLC and Control Theory with topping grades in Aircraft Structures and Composites
Project work -
1. Participated in SAE Aerodesign East (2013) as Team Leader of AeroMIT
2. 8 month project in IIT Kharagpur on Computational Modelling of Aluminium Casting Under Ultrasonic Vibrations (under Prof. Sudipto Ghosh if anybody wants to know)
Internships -
1. 2 month internship at L&T EDRC Kolkata involving FEM analysis
Work Experience -
Been working in Mahindra&Mahindra since August 2015 (so hopefully 2yrs of work ex if I get an admit)
Role - I work as a design engineer of Intake/Exhaust Systems at Mahindra Research Valley, Chennai
Publications -
None. But working on one (no idea if it'll get published)
Skills -
I'm decent at CAD and FEA\CFD analysis
Prospective Universities -
This is where things get wonky because I'm still working on it but in no particular order ...
1. Georgia Tech (Crazy ambitious I know, but it's the dream)
2. Virginia Tech
3. Pennsylvania State
4. UC Berkley
5. Michigan Ann Arbour
6. SUNY Buffalo
7. ASU
8. Ohio State
Please feel free to suggest any other potential places I could look into.
I don't know any seniors on edulix so... fingers crossed.
EDIT: I know getting a direct PhD is really tough, so I'm also okay with applying for an MS first.
