STATEMENT OF PURPOSE I’m FIROZ ALAM here from Dhaka, Bangladesh; Passport No: AA2933698, willing to pursue my higher education in Australia. I have completed my Secondary School Certificate (SSC) in 2002 background science with GPA of 3.88 out of 5 and completed “Diploma in computer engineering” in 2006 and secured CGPA- 3.43 out of 4. After then I serviced as an Assistant Network Engineer in ‘Tits Computers’ from January 2007 to July 2010. I’ve taken admission at Darul Ihsan University for "B.Sc. in Computer science & Engineering" and I've successfully completed Eight semesters (Out of Twelve semesters) and earned credit-110 (Total credit 162) and from Fall2010 to Spring- 2013 and has no pending subject. It is needless to say Bachelor of Information technology at The university of La Trobe, Sydney campus is one of the best degrees for anyone who are seek to be skilled in IT sector. This subject grabbed my attention and I realize that no other qualification would be more comprehensive and give me an in-depth knowledge than Bachelor of IT at The university of La Trobe. I believe this course will give me an experience of studying in a spectacular environment for research and practical based study. Having this qualification under my possession would be an advantage to me in so many ways. Firstly, it will create better career opportunities for me in IT firms, Multinational Company’s IT sector and Private sector in my country. Most of the reputed company’s top leading positions are driven by the experts who earns very handsome salaries. Moreover, I will have a dream of creating my own IT farm in Bangladesh through hard work and great work force. La Trobe University is one of the Australia’s leading technical research and teaching universities. I have chosen to pursue my undergraduate studies ‘Bachelor of information technology’ at The La Trobe University, Sydney campus because it’s disseminating mercurial education, the high level of the IT educational program and research infrastructure. I’m interested take admission at La Trobe University for a lot of good reasons; the lovely environment, the more practical courses and the high level of the IT educational program. By working under the guidance of distinguished professors I look forward to a career in IT field where I can not only use my academic background to achieve my goals but also make original contributions to my field of interest and to mankind in general. Its course work would satiate my thirst for knowledge as well as some other factors
like ranking, reputation, geography, funding, living cost, culture and so on. As stated before that, I have completed my ‘Diploma in computer engineering (4 years)’ and I would really like to avail this opportunity which will be one of the major step towards reaching my professional goals, and I sincerely hope to achieve this opportunity. La Trobe University also provides great facilities such as the number of labs, an extensive library and presentation room. I like this universities practical style of teaching system. It’s offer a better way of learning which is more relevant to the real world of working in the IT industry. I chose to study in Australia for several reasons. Firstly, Australia provides quality degrees to the students from worldwide and its degrees are highly valued in Bangladesh. Secondly Australian education system, environment, weather, security, student affordability and the certificate are globally recognized. Being a multicultural nation student get the chance to connect people from different background. Australian people are very friendly and welcoming. Moreover, I also found that Australian Education system is highly monitored by the government. Australian institutions already have great number of Bangladeshi students and that has made it easier to process and equate competency and equivalence between Bangladeshi and Australian degrees. Last one year (14th of June 2013 to 31st of May 2014) I stayed in Sydney, Australia for work and Holiday visa (Subclass 462) during my stay I learned about the Australian culture and I realized if I can complete my bachelor degree from Australia it will really boost my career. During this period, I has maintained all the visa rules and regulation and I didn’t do anything which flouts the immigration law. I realized Australian degree is most valuable and world reputed, this is why when I came back from Australia, I applied for student visa to study ‘Bachelor of Engineering (Honours)- ICT Engineering’ at UTS, Australia but unfortunately my visa application has rejected twice on 27 November 2014 and 9 July 2015. My visa interview was good but my visa officer wasn’t satisfied because I didn’t apply for credit transfer and has taken admission directly from beginning. As I am very confident and ambitious I shortly believe that if I get the chance to study at The La Trobe University, I will be able to maintain a good result just. After completing my Bachelor of Information technology (IT) degree I would like to come back to my country of origin. One day I myself have a dream of creating my own IT farm through work hard and great workforce which will add values to peoples not only in Bangladesh but also
all over the world. In doing so, I will be able to generate employment in Bangladesh. In contrast, there is a big IT industry and a lot of job opportunities in Bangladesh for the IT engineers who are really skilled and experts. Bangladesh GOVT. has a vision of creating DIGITAL BANGLADESH by 2021. In order to fit into this mission of my country ‘Bachelor of information technology (IT)’ at The La Trobe University, Sydney campus is one of the best degrees. Thank you Sir/Madam for taking the time and for your kind consideration of my application. Yours Sincerely, Firoz Alam.
