My journey in and out of Master of Science (MS)

Disclaimer: Whatever I have written below is only my story and what I think about MS. It may or may not apply to the readers.


I am not sure from where to start, so have decided to give a brief intro about the science knowledge I had in my school and Bachelors life.

Intro:

Tenth varaikum science na ennanae theriyadhu. Chemistry adhuvum suttham.. Year 2005 CBSE NCERT 10th std book  la 16th chapter Carbon compunds ngra lesson dhan Organic chemistry odaya basics. Ella compunds formula vum 1st page la irukum. Naanum padichaen..

Ethene formula... Oh correct correct CH2 equal to CH2.. (Adhavadhu CH2 = CH2 ). Propene aa CH3 minus CH equal to CH2 nu padichaen.  (CH3-CH=CH2).

How is Methane produced ngra reaction ah Chithrikoona plus Naooo gives Chifour plus Natukothri nu padichundu board exam ponaen. Adhavadhu

Ch3COONa+ NaOH ---> CH4 + Na2CO3

Ipdi Carbon ku valency 4 ngra vishayatha kooda theriyama 10th board exam ezhudhinavangall la naanum orthan. Padicha school oh DAV Gopalapuram. Perumaiya solvanga padips padips nu. Topper 490/500 vaangitaan na school la padikra elarumae arivaalinga nu nanachutrukanga namma makkal.

11th 12th State board shift aana udana Chemistry na ennanu Rozario ngra deivam orthar kannla kaatinaaru. Tuition la modha class, Dei Thambigala Carbon ku etthana valency theriyuma da? 4. Apdina enna? nu roadla poravanuku kooda purira madhri nadathinaar. Aniki decide panaen. Life la chemistry sammandhama edhachdhu pananum nu. Valu kattaya aasa lam ila. Chuma oru aasai.

Epdiyo andha aasai la, Chemistry dhan Chemical engineering nu nanachutu kurutambokula SVCE la eduthaen . Paartha sammandhamae ila.  Aaanalum manasa thaethindhen... Seri paravala Namakku Coding varaadhu.. Transister Transformer lam 12th la choice la utta parambaraya serndhavanga. Mechanical na Mechanic aaydvum, Biotech la Bio nu iruku namma Csc group so Otthu varadhu nu Chemical aay best nu sandhosha pattukten..

Epdiyo arrear vekkaama pass panna podhum nu pazhaya kostin paper aah mattumae nambi kadavul maela baaratha potutu luck la pass pannitae vandhen...

3rd year la Class la sila deivangal thidiirnu English la puriyadha vaarthailam pesa aarmichtanga. Namaku ennanae purila. Oru evening en veetuku friends 2-3 paer vandhu calling bell azhuthutu, Aunty Shashank irukana? Naanga GRE class pova porom .. Ivano veetla vettiya dhan iruka poran. Suma anupchu udunga aunty nu sonanga..Gumbala pona edho fees la concession  nu vaera en veetla kalapi uttanga.. Uduvaangala en amma.. Seri paa ntaanga...

Namaku Masters na enna? Enna dashku padikanum? onumae theriyadhu. Kudumbathla orthan kooda panla,, Elarum HCL Infosys nu place aaytu sambadhikrango. Naanum College (bachelors) oda padipu mudiyudhu nu dhan school laendhae nanachutrundhaen.

Seri tholayudhu 8000/- nu parents kuduthu utanga.. Elarum "Score Getter" ngra GRE class serndhom.

Ipdi dhan Masters kaana valadhu kaala eduthu vechaaen.. Ennanu kooda theriyaama.

Bachelors situation:

SVCE la 4th yr pasanga oru option dhan choose panna mudiyum. Either Placement or higher studies. Placement nu kudutha MS ku recommendation letter kuduka maatanglam. Higher studies nu option kudutha placement la okathi vekka maatanglam. Idhu vaera oru prechna mind la. GRE ennanae theriyama higher studies ngra risk eduklama?

Patthadhadhuku naa vaera 3 International papers vechundhaen.. Dhayav seidhu Vaaya polakaadheenga !!
So en friends elaarum "Dei 3 International papers aaaaaaa.. Shuuvar Stanford da Berkley da Hardvard da MIT da Mangatha da nu usupaethi utanga..." . So Higher studies option aay OK nu ezhudhi kuduthutaen.

Namma oorula international paper apdingardhu Sadhuranga Vaetai padathla vara yaemathu vaelai madhri.. Bachelors la mosta yaarumae research seiya maatanga except for few reputed colleges like IIT NIT etc. For the benefit of  people who don't know what I am saying,  you have two types of papers. Research paper and Review paper.

Research paper na, Naama edhavdhu current trending topics patthi namma department professor kitaendhu kaetu naamalae lab la research senjo illa professor ku help panni yo findings laam  positive aaa negative aaa nu kandupudikardhu aprom compile panradhu. Review paper na matthavanga ennalam senjurkanga andha field la nu summary madhri compile panni present panradhu.

Namma college synposiuthla lam nadakudhae paper presentation, adhu poora review paper dhan. Matthavan panirkardha google laendho alladhu seniors kitaendho aataya poduvanga... Minji pona pota aataila ivanga edhachu onnu rendu sekra madhri serthutu film kaatvanga. Adhunala dhan knowledgeable professors can easily identify when a college student presents if it is his original work or not.

As Anna University affiliated students, the maximum we know outside our curriculum is In-plant training and Final year project. Very few colleges like SSN EEE department have a great research program which the students themselves started to apply what they study in labs and also train their department juniors and keep the research tradition going. They have even entered Limca book of records. Here's the link. http://www.erfssn.org/about/ .

So my point is anyone who knows to cut copy paste and has money to register for an International conference by paying so and so rupees can easily get selected. These conferences mostly care about money making unlike few reputed ones like IEEE where they have commendable panel team. Ozhunga usefula edhavdhu pananum na IIT, CEG,  BARC, etc madhri edathla  edavdhu summer internships apply panni 3 months research panradhu dhan. Namma oorla USA madhri college or full semester bunk adichtu research pannalaam uda maatanga, adhan prechana. So only summer vacation time can be used for this. No one tells us these things. That in-plant trainings and prizes won in paper presentations are actually useless. No one here asks for your certificates and prizes. If you want something useful in your resume, go and work under an organization for at least 3 months. Develop an interest towards real-life research problems.

Seri namakku inga solirkara edhuvum amayala, endha internship um kadaikala apdina, neengalae paper presentation engenga nadakudho andha topics aah patthi google search panni, edhavdhu topics la interest irukka nu paarthutu reference books, professor help, senior help, etc nu use panni evlo mudiyumo avlo knowledge gain pannikonga. These things and knowledge help you towards your masters study also but is not necessary to apply for masters.

Back to where I was. Namakku indha internship, project oru dashum kadayadhu. Ellar madhriyum gumbaloda govindha va In-plant training nu oru naal 2 bus pudichu Manali nu engayo poitu vandhen 2 hours ku. Certificate kuduthan. Paisa projanam ila.

CLRI la kaasu kuduthu Final year project panaen. Kadavul punniyathla Masters apply pannrathuku kadha udra alavuku help pannirchu.

Friends lam 3 paper 3 paper nu  kudutha buildup ku Stanford, Berkeley, CMU, Texas Austin, nu ella appa tukker college kum apply panni seri pona povdhu nu onnae onnu namma level nu Iowa State University kum apply panaen.Paartha Iowa State aay en mogarakattaiku periya college aamam... Evanku theriyum..

Ella college laendhum Reject. Reject. Reject. Reject Reject nu mail la thuppinaaan... except Iowa State University.. Kadavul ella door ayum close pantu orae oru door open panntaar easy aa irukatumae nu..

Intermediate Moral: Any paper International or local if you had just cut copied etc , paisa projanam illai. Munnadi sonna madhri Only research / work experience counts. Adhuvum periya university la admit kadaikanum na GRE TOEFL SOP elamae tip top aa irukanum. Indha chinna vaislendhae Music lam katthundhu, kannadi potundu maths science la laam school lendhae genius aa irukaanglae, andha madhri aatkal vaena apply paniklam.. Naama just namma range universities, adhuvum seniors and friends ta kaetu apply panniklam.

Before the journey

Seri Iowa State University la admit kadachurthu. I-20 (Admit letter) la 1st year ku $36000 kaatanum nu sonnaan.. Apdina evlo nu calculate panna 24 Lakhs. Yosichaen..Namma mogarakattaiku ivolo selavu  panradhu worth aa? College laaye pazhaya kostin paper vechu dhan otrom. Just pass aana podhum nu thiriyarom. Patthadhadhuku edho oru oorla Thaniyaa vera irukanum. Matthavanga nammala ethi udranga nu solitu idhelam panni aaganuma nu nanachaen.. Manasu kaekla. Amma ta kaetaen. Naa ingiyae WIPRO adhu idhunu vaela pannitu irundhudrenae maa nu. Loosatam pesadha. Poi padichutu va da nu sonnanga. Seri ennadhan nadakudhunu paapom nu Kalambinaen Iowa, USA.

The journey and funny instances

Naama evlodhan english la pesinaalum enna dhan India la engineer naalum indha oorula sila English Vinglish scenes nadakkadhan seiyum. Enakum adhae dhan..

Vandha annikae  ID card adhu idhunu kadaikarthukulla usurae poiduthu..  International students office pona namma Kai la University map kuduthutu indha indha building poitu indha indha formalities mudichutu va nu soltango.  Apovae I knew, its gonna be just us standing on our own legs nu...

University Food court la "Subway" irundhuchu. India la dhan english la geth kalapirkomae Marry brown, CCD la laam nu solitu ponaen. Il have Onion, Lettoosu nu solli mudikarthukulla Enna oru maadhri paarthan kadakaaran . Innuru Indian pinadi lendhu Letis nu sonaan.. Ohh Letuce a Letis nu solanumo okk.  Anga dhan prechana theendhudhunu paartha aduthu capsicum nu sonane. Thirumba kadakaaran ennayae paarthan.. Thirumba andha paiyan Green peppers nu sonaan.. Shabaa indha oorula english therinjaalum kashtama irukae nu thalaila adichunden. Apram kaiyaaalayae this that dass bussunu ellathayum vaeral kaatiyae poda solli vaangin vanten.

Aduthu 2 hours kaechu Panda express ngra kadaila can I have tissue paper nu kaeta avan Chilly Pepper packet tharaan. Dei thambi apo na India la pesinadhu english dhaana? Yaend a ipdii? Adhukum innurthan sonaan.. Napkin nu solanumaam indha oorla. Thalaiya sorinjundhen vadivelu madhri..

Modha naal class ulla late aa poren. Enaku apram vandhavan lam ulla poran. Naama dhan Indian aachae kalaachaaram mikkavan. So class velilayae ninnutrukaen 10 minutes aa... Velila irukravan ulla varan.. Ulla irukravan fone pesitaae velila varaan.. Innurthan classlayae thanni kudikkran.. Onumae purila.. Naa Saar Saar nu kaeka Porfessor solrar, You don't need to ask my permission to get in..

Innuru naalaiku en professor Bio renewable law and policy ngra class la 1st class ngradhunaala course epdi irukum, Epdi grade kudupaaar nu sollitu presentation kaatitu irundhaar. Enako pona thookam. Kanna muuditaen.. Apponu paarthu avar

"Just to give you guys a heads up" nu sonaar. Thuuki vaari potruchu.. Ayuyo thookathla thala saanjadha paarthutu heads up nu soltaaro nu. Aaana avar enna moraikavae ila ..  Onume purila.. Yaen da tittitu paarkaamalae poitaar nu.. Apram google la paartha heads-up ngradhu oru idiom. Apdina munn echarikaya sollren nu arthamaaam


Things to do as soon as you arrive (only related to funding):

Veetla Appa Amma padi da padi da padi da nu kadhari kadhari dhan padichurukom. Inga neeyachu Un vaazhkaiyachu nu irukum. Avan avan edho funding funding nu pesipaanga. Apdina enna? Adhuku enna pananum? Onumae enaku therila. Aaana katthundhen..

First thing to do is find all the faculties in the department where you are selected. (This should actually be done at the time of applying itself so that at times you get aid while you get the admit letter ). Enaku admit letter oda Aid kadaikaadhadhaala I had to do it after arriving.

 So department professors list la endha professor udaya current research work namma idhuvaraikum (by chance) senja work oda relate aavdhu nu paarthaen. Apdi onnumae relate aagaliya? Naama apo sadhuranga vaetai madhri ennalam solli relate pannikalaam nu yosichu adhuku etha badi innuru resume prepare panninden. But definitely one should be having some related experience to the department where you have got admit. Resume ready aana udana I started emailing professors who were interesting with my original resume. Enakku kadavul punniyathla  CLRI la panina final year project konjam en professor odaya work oda match aachu. Adhu mattum ilama some unthinkable moments can sometimes help you in your way. For example en appa usuala edhavdhu Anandha vigadan ooh ila Hindu paper layo edhavdhu interestinga padicha en amma kita solluvanga. Appo orunaal sonaanga fish saapta kannuku nalladhaam. Adhula Omega fatty acids irukaamae nu. Indha eniko sonna vishayam enaku help pannirthu.

En professor enta avarudaya project patthi solitrukum bodhu " Fish oil contains some fatty acids, I forgot the name...." nu pause kuduthaar. Appo annan edho padicha pulla madhri Saar Omega fatty acids? Yes Shashank that is right!!! nu sonaar. Idhula impress aanavar dhan Research assistantship kuduthutaar.

Again for people who want to know how and what are the funding options available for graduate students (Masters/PhD) There is one called Research Assistantship (R.A) and another called Teaching Assistantship (T.A).

Since I m a Chemical engineer who pursued masters in environmental engineering, I'l stick with this field for now.  R.A na professorvaela seiyara topic la, paavam avaraala vayasaanadhaala mudiila nu solitu avar saarba nii assistant aa irundhu vaelaya pannitu avarta report pananum nu artham...

Vaaram Vaaram enna seiyalam nu nee avarta solanum. Avar vaayae thorakka maatar. India la dhan namakku idhu sei  adhu sei nu solli solli seiyardhu.. Inga project title kudukardhoda avar vaela over. Niii related articles padichu, onaku oru idea kadachu adha vechu enna next pannalaam nu yoschu oru proposal/hypothesis ezhudhi avarta solanum. Idhuku paer dhan Research Plan. Idha nii sonna dhan lab ulliyae nozhaya mudiyum.

Idhae computer science paiyan ku R.A or Graduate assistantship (G.A) na ipdi research plan lam irukanum nu avasyam ila. Professor ku enna vaenumo adha develop panni kudupaan. So department to department assistantship paerum enna thaevai ngradhu maarum.

T.A na Un english pesra thiranai vechu (TOEFL la nii over all aa and speaking la edutha mark nalla irundha nalla chance. Iliyaa College la Speech Teach Test edukanum) niii un professor ku avarudaya undergraduate class ku eduka vaaipu iruku. Ilana avanga ezhudhiya test aa correct pananum. Ilana lab la edachu experiment set up pananum. Ipdi professor udaya U.G class nadakka help panradhu T.A.

RA/GA and TA ku naraiya benefits Naray college la full tuition waive pannidranga. Apdina nii salli paisa education ku katta vaenam. En college la na 11500$ / semester kattanum assistantship ilati.. Kadachaadhaala 2800$ kattina podhum. That is like our UG fees under capitation fees quota. Adhu mattum ila. Onaku maasam maasam stipend vaera kudukran. 1500$. You earn more than your fellow  U.G classmates do in IT companies for 1st few years and you are side by side studying a higher degree and learning what real education is.

Ipdi onaku Kaila kaasum kuduthu, research seiya lab um kuduthu, katthukarthukaana ella opportunities um kudutha yaen katthuka maata nii? This is the boost which we all want in our lives. The turning point which we all need at some point, to do great things in life. That is what MS can give to you. You end up paying your own fees from next semester onwards. Appa kaasu vaenam pa, naanae paathukren nu oru dharava solli paaru. Onaku andha aruma puriyum. :)

So the goal is to do anythng and everything to get that assistantship/aid. Namma department la response kadaikiliyaa? Go meet professors. Don't wait thinking they'l reply nu. Onna madhri 100 paer anupvanga. Avarku enna thala ezhutha ovvoru mail aaa padikanum nu? So knock the doors and talk with them. Vaelaiku aavliya? try other departments. Chemistry Physics edhachu thaedu. Engayachu T.A kadacha kooda sooper. Beggars cant be choosers.

Apdi edhuvumae kadaikla na University la hourly pay ku Restaurants, library anga inga nu work panra madhri irukum. Indha hourly works which we do in university naala  RA TA GA madhri benefits kadaikadhu. Adhavadhu fees korayadhu. 1500$ lam kaasu kadaikadhu maasam maasam . Aaana edhuvumiladhadhuku edho paravala nu irukum. Idhan unga last option.

But always remember even if you don't get funded in your first semester, always try to work under your  interested professor on your topic of interest so that resume ezhudha usefula irukum. Adhan important. He might have so many contacts with companies in  and around your university area who might be working on similar projects. So internship ku usefula irukum.

My work under my professor was very useful which made me get a 10 month internship under a company who were also doing similar projects. So R.A kadachadhu poga ipo internship um kadhachudhu. See how one thing relates to another?

Also if you do your research well and you are able to produce good results, be it positive or negative toyour hypothesis, you can publish these in high impact journals or world congress/conferences that are purely meant for research publications unlike the international conferences I meant few paragraphs before. Indha research opportunities UG la usuala irukardhilla. Adhan IIT anga inganu poga solradhu summer internship ku so that you get used to Masters research.

Career fair:

Indha oorla namma oor madhri college ku vandhu recruit pana maatan.. However Gumbala ella companies um oru edathla assemble aaytu stall stall aa potu avanga company ah patthi solluvaanga. Naama mun kootiyae namakku interested companies aah note down pannitu adhellam google panni yaar yaar ta ennanna pesanum nu prepare panikanum.. Adhukaetha Resume um prepare panikanum up to date aa..

Career fair la enna oru prechana naa nii pesra ellarumae onna Bill gates level ku buildap kudupan.. I did my Bachelors in Anna University nu sonna kooda Oh is it? That's interesting. Wow I can see quite some research there!! Oh That's fantastic nu.. Wow you have an R.A.nu ishtathuku uduvaan.. Asaravae asaradha.. Namma oorla interview seriya panla na cleana therinjudum. Aaana indha oorla oru ezhavum theriyadhu. Ellarayum ivanunga bildapp kuduthae kondruvaainga.

Epdi munadilam Ind vs Aus Cricket series  munaadi Australians solluvaanglae. Indians are a dangerous side. Sachin is world class player. Dravid is wall nu solitu white wash pannitu poidvan. Naama paper la wow Sachina paaratirkan Wow Gilchrist gentleman nu sollitu thirivom..  So interview call ku koopadra varaikum yaemandhradha.Evan epdi paaratnaalum nii gunnu madhri nillu.. Onna patthi ennalam solla vandhiyo sollidu. Impress pantom nu thuli kooda yaemandhradha.

Semester semester indha Career Unfair poga poga naraya katthupeenga. Enna companyla enna seiyaraanga. Enna edhirpaakranga etc. So see how your research and these companies requirements match. Find out what else you need to develop. What softwares are the companies are using etc. Try to improve your profile every semester before you go to attend the fair.

Idhellam enaku oru paya solalaa.. Naa baatuku na ennamo paruppu ngra madhri phone call ku wait pannuvaen.. Missed call kooda kudukamaatanga rascals..

Other plus points:

Masters abroad la panravanga  naraya katthukalam. Padikardhu, research panradhu, kaasa semikardhu  Veetla roomates turn potu samaipom so that no silly reasons can be given and no one skips a meal.So eventually time management nalla pannalam. You get properly groomed. India la namaku adhukaana avasyam ila unless you stay in hostel where you get to learn some of these. S So naanga geth neeenga vethunu lam kadayadhu. Naanga scene podrom nu kadayadhu. Indha oorla idhu necessity, seiyarom.

Finale : Epdiyo oru vazhiya padippa mudichu, Thesis a mudichu, adha premier conference la present panna chance um kadachu, Internship a mudichu, Adhae company la full time um vaangitu, Appa va 1st sem ku maela kaasa anuppa udama naanae en selava paathundu, Cooking adhu idhunu katthundu, onga ellarodayum social media la spend panna time um kadachu kadasiila11th std la enaku chemistry edutha Rozario sir naala Iniki oru Research scientist aa oru bio-fuel company la vaelapaakren.. Enaku therinja varaikum Naraiya luck idhula irundhudhu yaena naa choose pannadhulam positive aa mudinjadhu. So konjam easya katthuntaen adipadaama...

Iniki na MS pannadhuku aniki en friend adicha oru calling bell dhan kaaranam nu nanacha siripa illa? Plus naraya paer sonnanga Aiyaiya environmental engineering aa? Vaelaya kadaikadhae!! Scope aay iliyae? Yaen computer science padikliya onga paiyan...... aaaa oooo nu. I'm an example to show everyone that people cannot predict and mostly they do not know everything. Adhae madhri Nalla university la padicha dhan madhippunu kadaiyadhu.. Carnegie Mellon (CMU) la padichavan vaela kadaikaama India um poirkan. Iowa/Ohio State University la padichutu elamae kadachavanum irukan. No one knows what's in store for you.

Masters study is like a pot full of opportunities. Nii evlo allriyo avlo kai ku kadaikum.. Nii nanachu paarkaadhadhu ellam katthuklam. So it is up to each and every individual to find out whats the worst  and best case scenario before deciding if you can give it a shot.  Inga Padichadhu and ni katthundhadhu vaela kadaikala naalum waste aaydadhu. Nii financiala romba kashtapadriya? Innum effort poduva. Innum naraya katthuppa. And suppose niiii  pota effort ku onaku palan kadachudhu nu vei, naalaiku neeyum thatthuvam pesalam.

FAQs

1) Anna I want to apply for masters Anna. How are the opportunities there?

A) Sathyama orthanukum theriyadhu. Vaela kadacha enakae naalaiku en course ah en university la innurthan edutha vaela kadaikuma nu theriyadhu. Avanavan enna katthukran. Interview la epdi pesran.. Avan naeram avanuku yaetha vaela kadaikudha ellamae andha andha nimisham dhan theriyum. So unless someone makes an effort and begins to learn no one knows anything. So Indha kaelviya kaekadha. Answer solravanayum nambadha unless avan company la onaku vaela vaangi tharaen nu sonnalae vazhiya.

Also in general USA la Comp science engineering padicha vaela kadaikardhu konjam easy.. Meedhi departments ku lam varies from individual to individuals...

2) Anna I got this much in GRE. This much in TOEFL. What are my chances? Endha Univs apply pannalam?

A) Sathyama orthanukum theriyadhu.. Edulix madhri website la admit kadachavan lam marka poduvan. Aaana adhunala onakum kadaikum nu avasyam ila. Kammi mark vechu Stanford um kadaikalam. Adhiga mark eduthu Stanford kadaikaamayum irukalam. So Onaku enna padikanumo adhuku yaetha seniors ta University la ennalam course iruku. Epdi research funding lam iruku nu kaetukonga. Micha badi admit kadaikuma nu josiyam lam theriyadhu.

3) How is the placement there? Will I get a job?

Ans) Career fair la na munnadi sonna madhri Neeya poi pesradhu dhan.. Onn resume.. Onn paechu.. Onn credentials.. Nee inni varaikum senjadha epdi nii kaamchukra epdi impress panra poruthu dhan. Career fair thavara  company websites la poitu apply pananum. Also micha job websites layum apply pananum. Avanuku thaeva padum bodhu nee irukanum. So it  totaally depends on Time..

4) Anna MS apply panren Please guide me na?
Ans) Share the blog :P
