Sample SOP for MS: University of Wollongong (Australia)

(I) General Details About Myself (Personal and Academic):

Starting from my schooling, I have remained an outstanding performer in academics and extra-curricular activities. I did my schooling from XXXX (mention name of school and board of education). I scored an excellent percentage of marks in mathematics (XX, mention marks you scored), physics (XX, mention marks you scored) and chemistry (XX, mention marks you scored); core subjects at my senior secondary school level of studies. Just after completion of my schooling, I got admitted in Bachelor of Science degree with Non-Medical stream at XXXX (mention college name and concerned university from which your college has got affiliation). In year 20XX, I appeared for the final year exam of said degree course and passed it with having a CGPA of X.X at a scale of 10.0. As I was making plans of pursuing my further studies abroad I started taking classes for English language training for 4 months to work on my English language skills and finally, appeared for the IELTS Academic exam on XX/XX/XXXX and got an overall band score of X.X (Listening::X.X, Reading::X.X, Writing::X.X, Speaking::X.X). And Now I am applying to pursue Master of Science (Chemistry) course at University of Wollongong, Australia.

(II) Why I decided not to study in India?

Indian Universities; Delhi University, Jawaharlal Nehru University, Amity University, and Lovely professional University etc. are considered as one of the best options to pursue a master of science (chemistry) degree course. All these names are well known in India for their excellence in the field of education. As these are among the reputed and most preferred institutions in India, even after possessing an excellent academic record it is hard to find admission in those. Also, at Indian institutions, basically, students are made to acquire theoretical ideas/knowledge regarding the field of study; very little efforts are made to let them know about practical usage of concepts explained during the course, and hence, they acquire decent theoretical knowledge in the field of study, but still lacking skills how to make usage of this knowledge practically. Apart from it, sophisticated learning resources that can make the study more engaging and productive are still lacking in Indian classrooms. So, following the ideology: 

" Only the best education can enable an individual to acquire exceptional knowledge and capabilities in the concerned field and help to carve a better future"

I decided to get my further studies abroad.

(III) Why I decided to study in Australia?

In the list of international destinations for higher education USA, UK and Australia are most renowned for their industry & research-aligned higher education. USA and UK offer world-class infrastructural and educational facilities that are most important aspects regarding abroad education. But the cost of study and living expenses are quite higher and hence, making these options expensive for most of  the international students. Australia is on the priority of international students after USA and UK because of comparatively affordable study costs and globally recognized institutions; Australia is having seven of its universities in top 100 universities of world - QS World University Rankings 2022. Australian qualifications are acceptable and recognized all over the world. Australia is offering world-class living facilities in a considerably lower cost of living. A number of scholarships are offered to international students by Australian Governments and Universities to help them out with their study expenses.

(IV) Why I decided to pursue the Master of Science (Chemistry) course at the University of Wollongong?

Australia is one of the renowned options for pursuing higher education as it comprises world-class universities for pursuing a master's of science degree course in chemistry i.e. The University of Melbourne, Flinders University, ECU and University of Wollongong and a lot more respected names. But I realized that UOW would be the best option to me for pursuing a Master of Science-Chemistry course: University of Wollongong is one of the best modern universities in the world. University of Wollongong has got a position among top 2% of world universities. Courses offered at UOW are majorly designed in a way to develop an intellectual way of thinking, devise critical inquiry, and are well aligned to the modern-day needs of industrial workspaces. And thus make the students job-ready by imparting them essential skills to perform effectively under industrially challenging environments. Career central workshops make students aware about resume writing, where actually to seek for a job, in what skills employers are interested in and selection processes in industries. And this helps the students to prepare themselves according to industry requirements. Also, fee structure of Master of Science (Chemistry) at UOW is quite in favor of international students; study costs for the said course are comparatively lower. Apart from it, Master of Science (Chemistry) course at UOW is combining the subjects: Fundamentals of Science Communication, Fundamentals of Science Data, Contemporary Analytic Chemistry, Advanced Organic Synthesis and Reactivity and Advanced Chemistry laboratory Project to develop real-world working capabilities in an individual for working in a chemical industrial platform. Location of the city of Wollongong in itself is a unique feature because of its physical setting, encompassing the narrow coastal plain between a nearly continuous chain of beaches and the cliff line of rainforests-covered Illarwarra escarpments and thus offers an environment that is most suitable for Education & Research as well as for recreational activities. 

(V) How Master of Science (Chemistry) course at UOW will help me regarding my future career plans?

After completing Master of Science (Chemistry) I will be equipped with all the essential skills required to perform efficiently in the domain of chemical sciences. It will hone my analytic skills regarding various laboratory techniques used in industries. Its multi-domain approach will enable me to perform in a number of chemical sciences allied areas. Because of its research-oriented skill enhancement strategies, it will enlarge my knowledge quotient for performing competently while carrying out any independent research. 

Indian domestic chemical industry is the 3rd largest producer in Asia and 12th in the world. India is fourth-largest producer of agrochemicals. Thus the chemical industry is playing an important role to stabilize India‘s economy. Government has introduced various policies such as 100% FDI and SEZ which have facilitated the development of Chemical industry by increasing the investment in the chemical sector. This in turn has facilitated the creation of a vast pool of opportunities for professionals having expertise in chemical sciences.

William Ramsay had rightly said that:

*****The country which is in advance of the rest of the world in chemistry will also be foremost in wealth and in general prosperity.*****

Hence chemical industry in India is offering the best option to switch start a rewarding career. Various companies including UPL, BASF, Pidilite Industries Ltd, Tata Chemicals Ltd, India glycols and Gujrat Fluoro Chemicals Ltd etc, are offering jobs to chemical sciences professionals with salary packages ranging from 35,000 AUD to 40,000 INR on monthly basis. Also after completing my Master in Science (Chemistry qualification I can start to work as an assistant lecturer in reputed colleges and Universities after clearing Exams like UGC NET, GATE, and CBSE NET. Thus with the above-mentioned qualification, a diversified opportunity pool is available in India. 

Warm Regards
