Personal Statement
Yunshan Wu

I sincerely hope that I can be accepted as one of the graduate students at your university, which is well known for its accomplished faculty and modern resources. It provides students from all over the world with a good chance to learn from different cultures. It is an ideal place for further study. Taking more advanced course in your university will surely enable me to realize my long--cherished dream of significantly improving people’s living and working condition. I firmly believe that I can make great progress in my future study at your university.

My childhood was spent in a coastal Chinese city Ningbo where my father worked in a laundry factory. While visiting his workroom, I often noticed that the working efficiency of the factory was terribly low. The operational techniques were backward and tedious due to lack of computerized automation. Realizing this during my senior year in high school, I said to myself that I would do my best to improve this situation in the near future. I successfully passed the National College Entrance Examination and enlisted in the Department of Electrical Engineering at Zhejiang University, which is the leading electrical engineering department in China.

When I entered into Zhejiang University in 1998, I already stood out among the freshmen. My interests in computer-based technologies further intensified in the following college years. I became very curious at integrated circuits and their applications. Knowing that computerized technologies were essential in all aspects of life, I studied hard on the coursework not only from my major of Applied Electronic Technology, but also from electives of Computer Science. However, I was not a bookworm. To broaden my vision and enrich my knowledge, I also chose courses in certain fields such as Signal & System and Fundamentals of Machine Design. I have spent considerably more time in the library and laboratories than my classmates, which helped to improve my academic grades gradually but firmly during my college years.

Through practical training and research projects in the summer internships and the senior year at Zhejiang University, I have gained my research experience of electronics, especially in the programming of EDA tools for VLSI Design as well as the development of CPU. With a solid grounding of Mathematics, I acted perfectly in research areas. In Jul. 2001, my design “Digital Controller of Running Machine” achieved the only “Excellent Programming” with the top grade “A”. My extraordinary talent, teamwork spirit and innovation greatly impressed my research teachers, thereby in my senior year I was recommended by my class advisor and finally become the only undergraduate student in my class who was selected into the institute of VLSI.

The more I learnt on campus, the more I hoped to see the real world outside the ivory tower. In the age of so called information revolution, however, the complexity of electronics and computer technologies requires more knowledge, and with China’s entry into WTO, the contact between China and other countries will be more frequent than ever before. Therefore, I am applying for the MSc program in Electronics or Computer Science at your university in order to make an advanced study. The specific objectives of my educational program and professional career are to help me to become a computer engineer or a research scientist in electronic technologies. As we all know, the corresponding faculty in your university has high standards of teaching and supervision, and provides excellent masters courses both in taught and research. I hope to be accepted, and do my best to make further improvement.
