  • Essay / The EECS Department at Berkeley - 1079

    The EECS Department at the University of California, Berkley offers the best and most comprehensive graduate programs for master's and doctoral degrees in electrical engineering. Berkeley's EECS department stands out from other universities. My research interests in coding theory, information theory, multiple access methods, and adaptive equalization all align significantly with the research focuses of the EECS Berkeley faculty. EECS Berkeley has the best faculty and most developed research facilities in the world of electrical engineering, and especially in the field of wireless and mobile communications.MY PREPARATIONS FOR FUTURE GRADUATE STUDIES AT BERKELEY:I have carefully prepared for the over the last two years. at my undergraduate institution. To be able to apply to Berkeley, I worked hard during the last two years of my undergraduate studies, ultimately earning a CGPA of 3.88 out of 4.00 and a rank of 8 among 139 students graduating in February 2004. My average for the last two quarters was a perfect 4. I have an excellent pre-undergraduate education, with 10th position in SSC (public exam taken after US equivalent years 9 and 10) and 4th position in HSC (taken after US equivalent years 10 and 11 -United States, approximately 200,000 participants per year). Then I applied for admission for B.Sc.Engg. degree from Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology (BUET). BUET enrolls its students every year after carefully selecting students who perform extremely well in its entrance examination covering higher secondary mathematics, physics, chemistry and English. In the test administered in 1998, I occupied 6th position among approx. 3000 candidates. I selected, without hesitation, the electrical and electronic engineering department of BUET...... middle of paper ...... to follow the following courses:1. EEE 4307-Digital electronics: taught in the 2nd year of B.Sc. to EE students (winter 2004)2. EEE 4619-Design based on peripherals and microprocessors: taught in the 3rd year of B.Sc. among EE students (summer 2004)3. EEE 4620: Laboratory for 3rd year B.Sc. students in Elect. Engg. program, linked to EEE 4619. (summer 2004)4. EEE 4850-VLSI Design Lab: taught to 4th year B.Sc.EE students, linked to EEE 4849, (summer 2004). The language of instruction in my department is invariably English, as my courses include international students. OTHER BACKGROUNDS: Apart from academic backgrounds, I personally manage a website at http://jarirmf.tripod.com. I hold a French diploma from the Alliance Française of Dhaka. I love to travel and have traveled extensively domestically and internationally, including India and Singapore..
